Chapter 44- come back
Morrison grit his teeth and told Linda he had no intention of getting back together. But that didn’t stop her from constantly trying to persuade him.
For Linda, she always knew her son was a flirt and a player, so she instinctively believed that in this breakup, the young lady was the one who got dumped—the victim. That’s why she kept pressuring Morrison, trying to win him back.
Why was Linda so keen on reuniting her son with his ex? Because she believed Morrison treated that girl differently.
He called her reliable with his own mouth, kept their relationship a secret, even cooked for her, and on New Year’s Eve, he let slip that he would bring her home after the holidays.
Ever since Morrison reached marriageable age, Linda had been nagging him about settling down. Yet he’d never mentioned bringing any woman home before.
A sharp woman like Linda could clearly tell there was something different about this ex-girlfriend.
Though she didn’t understand exactly what had happened between them, her maternal intuition told her this girl was genuinely dependable.
If it had been someone else—like the model who tried to cozy up to Morrison and flaunted their relationship to the world—the ex never gave any hint or sign, always low-key and distant. That made Linda even more curious.
So she called her son every few days, dropping hints and sometimes directly urging him to reconcile.
No wonder Morrison had started ignoring her calls. He was beyond frustrated.
To escape, he grabbed his phone and called his younger brother Karl in the States, voice thick with displeasure.
"Didn’t you say you’d come back after the new year? When exactly are you coming back?"
