Isla Linton shook her head, tears in her eyes.
She pulled her wrist from his hand and turned her back to him.
"I can’t say, I really can’t say, don’t force , why do you have to force ."
"I’m not forcing you, we’re doing this for your own good.
Isla, if there’s sothing to say, you need to speak up, you can’t keep running away like this.
I think Jas Yinley is serious about you, you..."
"You don’t understand, you really don’t understand, it’s because he’s good to that I can’t stay by his side.
Henry, don’t do this to , tell , can you help or not."
Henry Sullivan sighed helplessly, "I really don’t know how you ca to think this way.
I also want to help you, but you must have already thought it through.
Since Jas Yinley found you, he won’t let you disappear from his sight again.
Even if I help you escape now, his people will surely keep watching you."
Hearing Henry Sullivan say this, Isla Linton staggered back and fell into the wicker chair.
Her eyes were sowhat dazed, biting her lip tightly.
Henry Sullivan turned his head worriedly, "I can see that you have a difficult secret.
But Isla, do you know that ever since you left, Jas Yinley has been searching for you.
You feel bad, and he probably feels the sa way.
The first thing he did after finding you wasn’t to confront you angrily.
Nor was it to force you to return imdiately.
Instead... he ca to see first, he asked to et you, afraid his presence would frighten you.
If it weren’t for these reasons, I might not be standing here today.
I know it was my fault about our past, I let you down.
I couldn’t protect you, didn’t keep my promise to give you a ho.
But so things, once they’re past, once they’re wrong, can never be made right again.
Because it’s a scar that can’t be healed.
And even if I could divorce Ivy and marry you for your sake,
Do you know? My mother is still the sa.
I can’t be reborn and choose a new mother.
If I bring you back to my house, you are bound to suffer again.
I’m a soldier, usually stationed at the barracks, I can’t always be by your side to protect you.
If you’re not strong enough yourself, you’ll endure a lot of bullying at my house."
"Henry, let’s not talk about the past, I understand, I really do."
Isla Linton nodded, "Love is between two people, but marriage is a matter of two families.
In your mother’s eyes, my status doesn’t match yours, so she did all those things to hurt .
I... I really hate her, even though I still love you, I won’t co back to you again.
Your mother really doesn’t deserve a son as good as you."
Henry Sullivan sighed and fell silent.
Isla Linton looked up at Ivy Miller watching them from not far away, "That’s your wife, right."
"Yes," Henry Sullivan nodded, looking at Ivy Miller in the distance.
Over there, Ivy Miller, seeing both of them looking at her, waved at them.
Isla Linton pursed her lips and smiled, nodding at her, marking the first direct confrontation between the two won.
"This girl is very cute, since your mother let you marry her, her family background should be good, right."
Henry Sullivan shook his head, "Her family background is average, her father is also a soldier.
My mom doesn’t like her much, but my dad likes her, she’s the girl my dad chose."
"Then you must protect her well, your mother... is a more terrifying woman than you can imagine.
Maybe you don’t understand, but I know very well from having gone through those things.
This girl looks very happy, make sure she doesn’t beco another because of your mother.
Henry, so mistakes can be made once, but don’t fall in the sa place twice, do you understand?"
Henry Sullivan looked at her, "I’m sorry."
"Don’t say sorry to anymore, I never hated you, really.
Henry, did you know, during those years with you, I was really happy.
Because... you’re a good man.
If it weren’t for your mother, we might have been living a happy life by now.
But... maybe it’s just destiny, destined that I can’t beco your wife.
No matter how much I loved you back then, it seems like everything was just laying the groundwork for our future lives.
I’m telling you all this, just to make you wary of your mother, don’t let the one you love walk the old path I did."
"She’s... a bit lively, and sotis dares to say so things to my mom.
