HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 19: Her Was Sick

Aurora was haggard and skinny with sallow skin and hollow cheeks. At this moment, she looked extremely weak, which was totally different from the beautiful woman she used to be. “Mom, how did you...” Before Estelle finished her words, Aurora interrupted her, “Shush. I’m okay. Keep your voice down, and don’t complain, or your uncle will be unhappy.” Estelle was confused and asked, “Even if he hears me, so what? You’re ill. He should take you to see a doctor, but he didn’t. He’s gone too far. Besides, this is my home, and I have the right to come back to see my mother. I don’t care whether he will be unhappy about it.” “Your uncle... Forget it,” Aurora seemed to want to say something but stopped on second thought. Then she changed the topic and asked, “Estelle, didn’t you go to Ameris? Why did you suddenly come back? Have you made up with Cristofer?” “We...” “I knew that Cristofer hates us because of the car accident. But Estelle, your father is innocent. He had a good relationship with Cristofer’s parents and couldn’t be the one who killed them. You should explain it to Cristofer.” Estelle smiled helplessly. Both Mrs. Moorsum and Aurora asked her to explain everything to Cristofer and believed that Cristofer would forgive her. However, Cristofer didn’t even want to listen to her explanation and didn’t believe whatever she said at all. Estelle held Aurora’s hand and comforted her gently, “Mom, don’t worry about me. Cristofer and I are... in a good relationship. I gave birth to a second child not long ago. I’ll bring her here next time I come back.” Hearing that, Aurora was in high spirits and asked, “Really? When was the child born?” “Just a few days ago.” “Why didn’t you tell me such an important thing?” Aurora asked with an excited expression. Then she took off her jade bracelet and handed it to Estelle. “I’ve just known that I have a granddaughter, so I didn’t prepare a gift for her. This bracelet is a love

token that your father gave me many years ago. I’ll give it to my granddaughter as a gift,” Aurora handed it to Estelle. At the mention of Estelle’s father, the two of them couldn’t help feeling sad. “Your father loves you the most. If he knew you and Cristofer were living a happy life, he would be relieved in heaven.” “I see,” Estelle sniffed and said, “Mom, let me take you to the doctor now.” At this time, the door of the room was pushed open. Estelle turned around and saw a person who shouldn’t have appeared there. “What are you doing here?” She asked with a frown. “I live here,” Gretchen smiled and said. “You live here?” Estelle was surprised. When seeing Gretchen, Aurora shivered, held Estelle’s hand, and said in a low voice, “Estelle, Miss Abrams is your uncle’s stepdaughter.” Estelle then stared at Gretchen. Gretchen is more troublesome than I thought. She is shrewd, cunning, and good at pleasing men. No wonder Cristofer likes her. What surprised Estelle more was that Gretchen was her uncle’s stepdaughter. The person who benefited most from the car accident is my uncle, York. The car accident must have something to do with him. Since Yohan has been saved and taken to Ameris, I can carry out my plan without worry. “Miss Abrams, nice to meet you,” Estelle said as she reached out to shake hands with Gretchen. However, Gretchen just raised her eyebrows and didn’t shake hands with her. It seemed that she was trying to figure out Estelle’s intention. Estelle smiled and said politely, “Miss Abrams, what is it you want to see my mother about?” “It is not me but Cristofer who wants to see her,” Gretchen said. “He has something to ask Mrs. Hudson about.” “Where is he?” Estelle asked. “He’ll be here soon.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“What does he want to ask about? The car accident six years ago?” Estelle said with a smile, “Miss Abrams, you know the truth of it. If you let Cristofer continue to investigate it, you should also know the consequences. So, please stop Cristofer. My mother is ill, and I will take her to the hospital now. I don’t want anyone to disturb her.” After saying that, Estelle helped Aurora get out of bed and said, “Mom, let’s go.” “Hold on,” Gretchen stopped them. “Miss Hudson, I have something to talk to you about. May I have a word with you?” Estelle refused her directly, “I don’t think we need to talk.” “Of course we do,” Gretchen whispered in her ear. “If you want to save your mother, get divorced as soon as possible.” Estelle chuckled and said, “I will and have the ability to save my mother. As for divorce, whether getting divorced is up to me now. If you keep provoking me, I will never get divorced.” “But you are in the advanced stage of cancer. How long do you think you can live?” Gretchen said. “How about we have a bet?” Estelle asked. “Bet on what?” “Let’s bet how long I can live. As long as I’m alive, I’ll still be Mrs. Hans, and you’ll always be a mistress. Let’s see if I die first or Cristofer finds out the truth of the car accident first.” “You...” Gretchen’s face changed instantly, and even her delicate makeup couldn’t hide her fluster. “Estelle, don’t go too far.” Estelle shrugged her shoulders and said lightly, “I’m already like this. Even if I go too far, what can you do to me?” Then she helped Aurora out of the villa and went to the hospital. On the way to the hospital, Aurora felt a little restless and asked, “Estelle, what on earth is the truth about the car accident?” Estelle held her hand tightly and said, “Let’s go to see a doctor first and talk about it later.” **** Aurora was not in good condition. The doctor took the examination report and said, “... She had severe anemia caused by long-term

malnourishment and has serious pneumonia. Why didn’t you take good care of her? A long-term cold obviously causes this pneumonia. If the treatment is delayed, she will be in a worse condition!” Estelle gasped. How could Uncle York be so ungrateful and treat Mom so badly? He is in charge of the company of the Hudson family, and my mother is his biological sister! Aurora’s face was pale, and she looked listless. Seeing the anger on Estelle’s face, she was more worried about Estelle than her own condition. Then she said, “Estelle, I’m fine. Don’t go to argue with your uncle. He’s very powerful now, and you can’t do anything to him.” Estelle felt heartbroken and guilty.
