The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1886

"But how did he know that my mother was in this hospital room?"

Ellinor harbored a deep animosity toward her father, especially on behalf of her mother, who had been deeply wounded by him.

"He really has the audacity to show up in front of my mom again! Bertha, rest assured, there won't be a next time!"

Absolutely not!

Once Baber was discharged, and things settled down here, she would confront McNeil and warn him.

Yet, Bertha sighed again, "Ellinor, do you think your mother's heartache will cease simply by not seeing your father? All these years, Marlinie has been wandering around, never truly happy!

One reason is the loss of you. She believes she failed to protect you and caused your death. The other is heartbreak!

She despises your father, that’s certain. But if there had never been love, how could such profound hatred arise?

When your mother first fled the Howard family, she was barely in her thirties. With her charm, she had plenty of men courting her wherever she went. However, she never paid attention to any of them. Why do you think that is?"

Ellinor pondered Bertha’s words seriously, “Maybe because she was hurt too deeply, she lost faith in love.”

Bertha nodded, "There is that factor, but I believe the main reason is that she never forgot your father. In her eyes, no one could measure up to him. That's why she never accepted anyone's affection, giving no chance to others."
