Damon is not a dumb guy, theoretically, he should be pretty smart, so why does he beco so silly when it cos to Ariel?
As far as I can see, there’s only one explanation that makes sense to , he’s playing dumb on purpose
He told he needed ti to deal with Ariel, but he kept turning a blind eye I’m glad I didn’t buy his story
"I know so things, but there are so things you don’t know" Damon’s face was full of sorrow, like a knot that couldn’t be untied, constantly bothering
"Well, spill the beans" I suddenly raised my voice. "Tell , and we might be able to clear up all the misunderstandings, right?"
Damon’s mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say sothing but stopped In the end, he shut up
I snorted. "Ha, Damon, is this what you ant by taking care of Ariel? You guys t for the first ti in the town hall, it was her who reached out to you first, and you’ve never told about any of these. Are you afraid of her getting hurt, so you took the responsibility yourself?"
"Even if I misunderstood you, thinking you were the one pursuing her, forcing her to break up, you loved her so much you lost your mind, and you were okay with it, I continued, then why did you co to find after we divorced? What are you really thinking? I don’t even recognize you anymore" Sotis I even wonder, since I can be reborn, why couldn’t Damon be possessed by soone else’s soul?
Maybe he’s not Damon, he’s just possessed by soone else.
Damon clenched his teeth. I saw his jaw twitch a bit, he was probably upset
I was upset too, I had to look at Ariel’s disgusting face while eating my roast chicken!
As I dried my hands, ready to leave, I saw Ariel approaching
She looked at Damon, then at , her eyes complicated.
"Eliana, what happened today has nothing to do with Mr. Coleman, I ca on my own." Ariel thought I was blaming Damon.
I didn’t respond, just walked away
"Ariel Bitch went to the bathroom too, did she go to find you?" Luna asked in a low voice when I returned.
"I don’t know, I left as soon as I saw her" I answered casually.
Then Mitch ca over, apologizing sheepishly." I’m sorry, Eliana. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have posted that on social dia!"
I glanced at Mitch, rembering sothing Luna had said, so I asked, "Mitch, Cooper, what do you guys think of Ariel?"
They looked at each other, not knowing how to respond
If Mitch dared to say a word out of line, today’s roast chicken would turn into roast Mitch.
In the end, it was Cooper who spoke, "She’s just a little girl, blinded by love. She’s usually very sweet, very open and passionate towards others"
As soon as he finished, Luna jumped up, ready to hit Cooper, but luckily he was quick enough to dodge.
"Dear, dear" Mitch was startled and imdiately held Luna, "Don’t get too excited, think about our baby!"
He turned to warn Cooper, "You’re really annoying, what if you upset my wife?!"
Luna pointed at Cooper angrily. "Cooper, rember, you’re only safe because of the law!"
Cooper used to be quite afraid of Luna, after all, he had witnessed her violent tendencies. Now, he seed a bit flustered.
"Yes, my wife is right, Ariel is very manipulative!" To appease Luna, Mitch started to make stuff up
Just then, Ariel ca back, her face turning ugly when she heard what he said.
Mitch turned to see Ariel’s tear–streaked face, he recoiled a little, lost for words.
"I knew I shouldn’t have co today" Ariel wiped the corner of her eye, then quickly turned and left.
Mitch gave Damon, who followed behind, a aningful look.
Luna noticed and hit him on the head, causing him to wilt.
Without asking why. Damon quickly went after Ariel.
"Damon really loves Ariel!" Sofia half–jeered, half–sighed.
"Yes, if he loves her so much, why does he have to disrupt Eliana?" Clara was clearly angry.
"Jerk, I despise him!" Luna cursed
Mitch couldn’t stand his good friend being insulted, he couldn’t help but say, "You guys shouldn’t say that, Damon has his reasons."
Since I couldn’t get any answers from Damon, I turned to Mitch, "Oh, he has his reasons, can you tell what they are?"
When it ca to specifics, Mitch fell silent.
Cooper quickly changed the subject, "Let’s have chicken, it looks like it’s done and slls amazing".
Then he took a small knife, began cutting the chicken and put it into bowls, giving everyone a share
The matter was dropped, no one asked what Damon’s reasons were, I still didn’t know.
The chicken was delicious, the five or six of us ate and chatted until midnight before heading ho.
On the Day of the Dead, my mom woke up early in the morning, then our family plus Oliver, drove to the cetery
This was the only cetery in the city, located on the edge of the city, the Coleman family’s grandparents were also buried here, so running into the Coleman family was expected
The Coleman family who ca to pay their respects were a few n, Damon and his dad and two other relatives.
In the past, Lisa would return ho every year for the Day of the Dead to pay her respects to her deceased parents.
The two old n who used to greet each other warmly when they t, now had no interaction, especially my dad, after a glance at them, he took us away.
After paying our respects and leaving the cetery, we bumped into Damon again. He was the first to greet my parents, saying, "How have you been"
My dad just snorted coldly, not giving him even a glance, while my mom awkwardly forced a smile and hurriedly rushed into the car.
Looking out the car window, I could see Damon and his family looking uncomfortable.
"He has the nerve to say hi? My dad sneered as he drove, I’m already being generous by not giving him a beating!"
My mom responded, "Alright, just as long as you cut all ties with Damon from now on That’s enough. He was just being polite. Let’s let it slide."
"You have to be firm, no more going soft, rember?" My dad was particularly worried about this.
I couldn’t even begin to imagine what their reaction would be if they found out I was pregnant. Would they force to have an abortion?
As long as the baby was there, I could never fully sever ties with Damon. The blood ties between him and the baby were unchangeable.
I replied, "I got it, dad"
Even though I said that, I was beginning to understand that what lay ahead for and the baby might not be acceptance and love, but opposition.
I might never remarry, but I hoped to have a child. It was one of my greatest wishes.
