Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2043

"I have a trauma."

"What's wrong?" Ruth asked.

"It's all because of...Old Master Shaw," said Yvonne with a sigh.

Ruth's tone immediately became agitated. "Yvonne, don't tell that the d*mned old man is still very forceful and cares about the status and prestige of families! Could it be that he wanted to object to the marriage of you and my cousin?"

Yvonne shook her head. "That's not the case. Old Master Shaw is more honest now. He is also much older now. He doesn't intervene with anything anymore. I often see him running to Gloria's house to sneak a peek at her. In fact, every time I went to the Shaw family's house, the old man would ask me, 'How is Sabrina? How is Aino? Have they forgiven me now?' and so on. I will sometimes find him quite pitiful.

However..."

Speaking of that, Yvonne sighed. "Every time I think about how cruel he could treat his own daughter, and how he could help an outsider to viciously harm her own granddaughter and almost have her killed, I just.... when I see Old Master Shaw, I just feel fearful in my heart. Do you understand that, Ruth? I told myself every day that I had to overcome it, I have to overcome it. However, once I see Old Master Shaw and I recall those things that he had done in the past, I would still be afraid."

Ruth felt very sorry as she looked at Yvonne. "It must have been tough on you, my precious..."

Yvonne sighed again. "So, I wanted to wait-"

"Wait until after the old man has passed away, then only you'll marry into the Shaw family?" Ruth was very blunt.

Yvonne smiled. "I didn't curse him..."

"Pfft...you didn't curse him, I did, alright? Petty girl!" said Ruth with a smile.

Yvonne also laughed as if she had gained a huge advantage.
