Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2240

"But..."

Sean looked at Charles and then at Jim, who was a little further from him. "Mother abandoned both you and Jim! If..."

He pursed his lips. "If Mother had just faced you and Jim, if she hadn't hidden herself, perhaps the Landry family and the Lynch family wouldn’t have suffered such terrible losses."

From Samuel’s conversation with the others, Sean finally understood everything. The fight and feud between the Landry and Lynch families were rooted because of his mother, Lucy Hamilton. If she had only sought her memory and faced it bravely, perhaps both families would not be embroiled in much bitterness and tragedy like they were at present.

After so many years, both families had collided many times in their business, and Colin was dead because of it. His mother was partly responsible for everything that had happened.

Even with all this, Charles decided to forgive his mother so easily?

"The past is in the past," said Rosalyn gently, smiling as she continued to wipe the blood away from Jim’s nose. "What else can we do apart from forgiving? Do we need to dig your mother's grave and scold her dead body? Should we blame you and Jim for her mistakes and ask the two of you to compensate for it?"

Her gentle smile never left her face as she kindly added, "What she did had nothing to do with both of you. Besides, it is human nature to hide from being harmed. After experiencing that incident, she only wanted to protect herself and live a quiet, peaceful life. There's nothing wrong with that. If there were anyone to blame..."

Rosalyn sighed. "You should blame me and Charles. He underestimated the situation too easily, and I have too much faith in my junior."

Rosalyn never expected that the people who had hurt Lucy were Sirius and Quentin; one was a senior that she looked up to, and the other was a junior she considered like her brother. Both of them used her and told everyone that they did it for Rosalyn's best interest.
