Chapter 139: Sudden Video Call
Abigail didn’t want Sawyer to see her sadness because she was not entirely honest with him. Until now, she has struggled with her own life, caring for her grandmother and earning a living.
However, she would not complain to anyone else, especially God, because she felt happier now. This was mainly because she no longer lived with her scummy ex-fiancé and had cut ties with her father.
And, of course, she was now dating a gentle and kind person like Sawyer Jones. Her life was much better, and she hoped it would continue to be even better.
...
Sawyer felt a greater sense of pride in her. She is very mature in dealing with his family’s dark history.
"Yes, you are right. It was in the past, and we have to move on," he said, glancing at her before continuing. "And for that, I moved out of my parents’ house and chose to live with my grandparents for my sanity and happiness. I still remember to this day, the day I entered my father’s house and became Charlotte’s son; everyone looked at me as a bastard."
A bitter smile surfaced on his lips as Abigail gently patted his hand.
He continued, "Even after my mother officially married my father, people in that house still did not accept me or her. When my father discovered this, he fired all the old maids and staff and replaced them with new people."
Sawyer fell silent, no longer able to continue talking about his family.
