I don't quite understand why Mrs. Fang is so confident. At this point, she thinks we have something to say.
If I were her, I might never have the face to appear again in this life. I could not wait to disappear from each other's world and live a peaceful life. After all, this was the best ending for each other.
"However, this idea is only mine. Because Mrs. Fang is different from me, she can appear in front of me again and again."
"Granny, allow me to call you granny for the last time."
Mrs. Fang quickly grabbed my hand and said with a smile, "Chelsea, as long as you are willing to call me mother-in-law, I will be your mother-in-law from now on."
"But we are no longer mother- in- law and daughter-in-law. I want to call you mother-in-law in the end just to draw a clear line between us," I said.
Maybe it was a little hurtful, at least Mrs. Fang's face suddenly changed, although I didn't know why her face changed when she listened to my words.
But I was even more certain that Mrs. Fang must have come for Callen.
No matter how she refused, in the end, I still sat with Mrs. Fang in the coffee shop, facing each other and speechless.
I never drank coffee before, but today I ordered a cup of Blue Mountain, just because I saw this name of coffee in the movie.
"Chelsea, they didn't know that I came to see you today," Mrs. Fang suddenly said.
My hand that was stirring the coffee paused.
I put down the spoon and looked up at Mrs. Fang. "So why are you here?"
There was a hint of embarrassment on her face. She didn't seem to be in a good mood to speak, but when I saw her like this, I felt disgusted.
So many things happened in front of her. She had never taken good care of me when I was pregnant. I heard that I was pregnant with a girl, and she told me directly that I would not divorce unless I had a child.
Later, the children were schemed against by them, and naturally, I did not end up in a good state to protect my family. In the end, I was driven out of the house alone and hid in the house to comfort my wounds with scars on my face.
God knows how I got here during those days. I was afraid that my neighbors would ask me what happened and why they would ask me why Callen didn't come back together. I was worried, afraid of everything in the outside world, and had to care about my mother's feelings.
My mother was seriously ill because of the divorce. At that time, I made up my mind to forget everything and start over. I did it slowly, but when I was ready to welcome a happy life, their whole family came to harm my life.
I looked at Mrs. Fang, motionless.
"Chelsea, after so many years, you are the best for each other. You have been living a poor life and getting better and better with your hard work. I miss you at that time."
As she spoke, Mrs. Fang's face was full of nostalgia and regret.
But when I saw her expression, I couldn't help laughing in front of her face, and tears came out of my eyes.
The people around looked at me and did not hide their whispers. I knew that they must be guessing what had happened.
I looked up and saw Mrs. Fang pursing her lips into a line.
I cleared my throat and said quietly, "I'm sorry. I was just a little happy to hear you recalling the past and praising me."
