Ch. 2561..2570

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2561-Speaking of Amber Mitchell, Grace began to frown again.

“You said the last time that Simon isn’t doing okay. Can Amber Mitchell really save the child if she helps him with the transfusion?” “There’s a certain possibility, but it isn’t very high,” said Jason.

“That… That boy…” “With the Gregory family’s ability, they can keep the child alive even if the transfusion isn’t successful. He’s just not going to be that healthy,” said Jason.

Grace sighed, now thankful that her triplets were healthy despite the rough labor.

As a mother, what she wanted most was for her children to be healthy and safe.

“I didn’t expect Simon to be George Gregory and Amber Mitchell’s child. Amber Mitchell thought she gave birth to a stillborn child. If George Gregory had saved Amber Mitchell when she was admitted to the mental hospital, everything would have been different,” Grace lamented.

Chapter 2561 2/4 “There aren’t so many what-ifs in this world. George Gregory is doomed to live in regret and pain for the rest of his life.” The deeper the love, the deeper the pain and regret!

Grace sighed. “George Gregory has hurt Amber Mitchell too much. Even though they have a child together, Amber Mitchell… won’t forgive him.” After spending time with Amber Mitchell, Grace learned that Amber Mitchell was a woman who had a clear-cut stand on what she liked and what she did not. Once she made up her mind, she would never go back on it.

Besides, she could see that there were no more past feelings in Amber Mitchell’s eyes when Amber Mitchell faced George Gregory. It was clear that Amber Mitchell no longer loved George Gregory.

“But I can’t believe that Amber Mitchell would choose to marry Herman Moss. Is it alright for her to wallow in the past like this?” In her opinion, one should always look ahead..

Jason said, “How would you know a person’s true feelings if you’re not them? Maybe this is the best for her. If she loves Herman Moss, it won’t be a bad thing. At least she’ll be happier.” Grace froze slightly before chuckling. “Since it’s what Amber Mitchell wants to do, maybe… it’s good for her.” Chapter 2561 With that said, her gaze fell on Jason’s face. “Jay, let’s not have any misunderstandings. Look, it’s so sad that George Gregory and Amber Mitchell got to this point because of a misunderstanding.” “We won’t.” He raised his hand and pulled her into his arms. “We’ll never become that way.” 3/4 He would never be as stupid as George Gregory, ruining all his good chances.

In Deer City. Amber Mitchell continued to stay in her rental house as if she had nothing to do with the chaos outside.

She did not care whether George Gregory and Louise Mitchell got divorced.

Now, the person who harmed her had been jailed and punished. She had married Herman as well.

She even had Herman’s things in her place now.

There were Herman’s clothes in the closet. That photo of her and Herman that was taken secretly and a photo of Herman alone were on the nightstand. Herman’s favorite books were also on the shelf.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2562-Staying in a room like this made her feel as if Herman was with her.

Daley Moss had asked her what she wanted to do with her life.

She was thinking about taking back her shares in Mitchell Group by legal means before selling them and using the money to engage in archaeology, which she and Herman were both interested in.

Herman had planned to go abroad to further his studies in archaeology before returning to the country to make some contributions to the industry.

In that case, she would fulfill Herman’s unfulfilled wishes.

However, there was one more important thing she could do before that-helping Simon with his blood transfusion.

He was her child! She gave birth to him, so she had to save his life!

Just then, Amber Mitchell’s phone rang. She picked it up. It was a call from the hospital.

Chapter 2562 “Is this Miss Amber Mitchell? I’m from the hospital. Can you come to the hospital tomorrow for a comprehensive body check-up for Simon’s blood transfusion?” they said.

2/4 Although Amber Mitchell already did some tests before donating blood to Simon the last time, she needed to undergo a more thorough test for the transfusion this time.

The demand for blood would be much greater than the last time as well.

“Okay, no problem,” answered Amber Mitchell. She ended the call after making an appointment with them.

Amber Mitchell went to the hospital the next day. The nurse gave Amber Mitchell a series of confirmation documents and asked her to sign them. Then, she had her blood drawn and an X-ray taken, which was almost tantamount to a full-body check-up.

Amber Mitchell cooperated without a word of complaint.

After the body check-up, Simon’s attending doctor called Amber Mitchell to the office for a talk. When Amber Mitchell walked into the office, she also found George Gregory there.

However, George Gregory looked much more haggard and thinner than she had seen him a few days before.

Chapter 2562 Amber Mitchell only glanced briefly at him before withdrawing her gaze and looking at the doctor.

3/4 The attending doctor began explaining Simon’s current condition and said, “I hope that Simon can have the transfusion as soon as possible. Miss Amber Mitchell, can we do the transfusion the day after tomorrow if there’s nothing wrong with your test results?” “Sure,” Amber Mitchell said without hesitation.

“But it’ll be a great strain on your body to donate so much blood at once. After all, this will be different from normal blood donations,” the doctor said.

“It’s alright. I’m mentally prepared,” answered Amber Mitchell.

During the conversation, Amber Mitchell could feel George Gregory’s eyes watching her.

However, she did not want to look at him.

When the doctor finished speaking, Amber Mitchell said, “Alright, I’ll be here on time the day after tomorrow. Is there anything else?” The doctor shook his head. “No.” Chapter 2562 4/4 Amber Mitchell got up and left the doctor’s office, only to hear rapid footsteps behind her as she walked into the hallway.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2563-George Gregory ran up to Amber Mitchell and blocked her way. “Are you going back now?” “What else?” she asked.

“Don’t you… want to visit Simon?” he asked.

‘Simon?’ Amber Mitchell’s eyes flickered a little as hesitation appeared on her face.

‘That’s my child… Although I didn’t take care of him or get the chance to bond with him, I’m glad to find out that he’s still alive. I’ve even been crying in the dead of night for days now!

She wanted to see and talk to the child. She wanted to touch and hug him!

She had never held the little one since he was born.

Seeing Amber Mitchell’s hesitation, George Gregory continued saying, “Simon woke up yesterday. He’s still a little weak, but you can go and see him. But-” Pressing his thin lips together, he added, “Because he’s still weak, I’m momentarily keeping the news from him. I didn’t tell Chapter 2563 2/4 him that you’re his biological mother. Don’t tell him that you’re his mother when you see him later.” “Got it,” Amber Mitchell said indifferently with no expression on her face.

George Gregory explained uneasily, “I just want to wait until he’s well enough to tell him that you’re his mother. I have no intention of hiding it from him.” “It doesn’t matter to me whether you tell him or not,” said Amber Mitchell. She only wanted the child to live well and healthily.

“It doesn’t matter?” His expression changed slightly. It mattered to him, but it did not matter to her? “Would you rather he not be our child so you can distance yourself from me better?” “George Gregory, what are you trying to say? Simon’s our child, and that’s a fact that can’t be changed. It doesn’t matter to me whether he knows I’m his mother.” After going through so many things, she was exhausted and became more open-minded.

She only hoped that the child could survive and peacefully live the life he wanted. That was enough.

After a pause, Amber Mitchell continued saying, “Besides, I’m Chapter 2563 not going to fight you for the child’s custody. You can rest assured that nothing will change.” 3/4 It was undoubtedly the best for Simon to stay with the Gregory family. The Gregory family could provide Simon a lavish life and meticulous care, which was beyond her ability.

Besides, Simon must have gotten used to living with the Gregory family after so many years. He was used to the Gregory family members accompanying him. She was no more than a stranger to Simon.

However, her statement made George Gregory’s heart sink.

He hoped that everything could change. He hoped Simon could provide them an opportunity and she could take him back.

Even though it might take a long time and a lot of effort to get there, he was willing to do it.

However, she now told him that nothing would change.

Was she also telling him that she would never accept him?

With almost weak steps, George Gregory took Amber Mitchell to Simon’s ward.

Unlike the last time when she had seen the little one in a Chapter 2563 coma, he was not wearing an oxygen mask anymore and appeared to be in good spirits. He sat on his hospital bed building a toy car.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2564-Amber Mitchell looked at the little one. He looked pale, but he was in good spirits. His fingers were flexible as he built the toy. She could tell he enjoyed building toys like this.

When the two of them came to the little one’s bedside, he stopped and looked at them. Of course, the little one’s eyes were mainly focused on Amber Mitchell’s face.

The eyes similar to George Gregory’s narrowed slightly as if they were sizing up Amber Mitchell or were thinking of something.

The little one suddenly said, “I know you! You’re Mommy’s mentally ill sister!” A weird atmosphere filled the air as soon as he said that.

George Gregory immediately said, “Who told you she’s mentally ill? She’s not! When you were in a coma, she was the one who saved you by donating her blood. She’s donating her blood to you again for your full-body transfusion treatment the day after tomorrow!” “I don’t want her blood. Mommy said she’s not a good person. She’s a bad person. She harmed Grandpa, Grandma, and Chapter 2564 2/4 Mommy! Where’s Mommy? Why hasn’t Mommy come to see me?” Simon exclaimed.

Although Louise Mitchell was not close to Simon, it was children’s nature to want to be close to their mothers.

George Gregory’s thin lips were almost pressed into a line. “Don’t mention your… mommy again! And this woman before you has never harmed anyone!” “I want to talk about Mommy. I don’t want this woman to save me. I want Mommy to save me! Where’s Mommy? I want to see Mommy!” Simon tried to get down from the hospital bed.

His son’s mentions of ‘Mommy’ only made George Gregory more awkward.

It reminded him of how stupid he was to believe Louise Mitchell and not compare her DNA with the child.

If he had done that one extra step, Louise Mitchell would not have been able to deceive him for so many years. He and Amber Mitchell might not have ended up like this.

“That’s enough. Stop asking for that woman. She can’t save you at all!” George Gregory scolded.

However, the little one threw a tantrum and shouted even louder, “Mommy, Mommy!” Chapter 2564 3/4 George Gregory raised his hand and was about to hit his son, but Amber Mitchell grabbed his hand. “There’s nothing wrong with a child wanting to see his mother. If anything, it’s the adults who are in the wrong.” As she spoke, she leaned closer to the little one while half bending down. Her eyes were almost level with the little boys’ in front of her.

He was her son with her genes and the same blood type. The boy’s appearance was a mix of hers and George Gregory’s. The outline of his face, eyebrows, and lips were similar to hers.

“Louise Mitchell’s blood can’t save you, so you need my blood to save you,” Amber Mitchell said with a calmness in her gentle voice. “You can only do whatever you want and see whoever you want after you recover. Otherwise, you can only lay in the hospital bed all day doing nothing!” Simon stared at Amber Mitchell and suddenly asked, “Are you trying to steal Daddy by saving me?” The little one must have heard rumors even in the hospital, so he reacted strongly against Amber Mitchell from the beginning.

George Gregory’s expression froze instantly, and he looked at Amber Mitchell nervously.

 

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2565-Amber Mitchell continued to speak calmly, “No, I won’t steal your daddy, I won’t be with your daddy. I’m saving you because I want to.” Confusion flickered in the little one’s eyes. “Why do you want to save me?” “Because…” She hesitated and said, “Others helped me when I was in trouble, so I want to help others when they’re in trouble.” “But Mommy says you’re a bad person. Why would a bad person want to help people?” The little one’s childish voice was heard saying.

“You have to come to a decision whether a person is bad or not yourself, not just because someone says so. You must already be in primary school. You must learn to think and distinguish things yourself. You’ll see whether I’m a bad person or not in time,” Amber Mitchell said as she straightened up and raised her hand to caress the little one’s head.

However, the little one turned his head sideways and avoided Amber Mitchell’s hand, making her miss.

Chapter 2565 2/4 Amber Mitchell looked at her hand that missed before looking at Simon’s distant eyes. She tasted bitterness in her mouth. ‘Yeah, I’m just a bad person to the kid!

It was already a blessing to her as long as the child was alive.

After everything she had been through, she knew better than anyone how precious life was.

“Alright, have a good rest. We’ll meet again the day after tomorrow. I’ll save you whether you like it or not. If you refuse to accept that, get better. Save me when I need help in the future, and you won’t owe me anything. You can also be very arrogant in front of me!” Amber Mitchell said to the little one with a smile. Her speech made the little one dizzy.

He was very resistant to the idea of the bad woman saving him! However, he thought it was nice to smugly save the bad woman after he recovered!

Amber Mitchell walked out of the ward. George Gregory stood where he was with a bitter look on his face.

‘What was I expecting? Was I expecting her to give our son a different answer?

Chapter 2565 3/4 She had already said to his face that she would not get back together with him!

However, he could not help but have some expectations.

“Daddy, is she really a bad woman?” Simon’s childish voice rang.

George Gregory looked at his son and said hoarsely, “She’s not. She’s the person who loves you the most in this world.” Even when the doctor mentioned that the transfusion would affect her body and even put her life in danger, she said yes without even frowning.

“Aren’t Grandpa, Grandma, Daddy, and Mommy the ones who love me the most?” Simon asked in confusion.

George Gregory caressed his son’s head. “You have to learn to distinguish right from wrong by yourself. Don’t be like me.

I thought I knew everything, but it turns out I was only a fool kept in the dark.” If he had not thought of himself as always right, things would not have come to this.

The little one blinked with a hazy notion, but he still said, “Daddy is no fool.” His daddy had always been someone he idolized.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2566-George Gregory gently hugged his son. “Aunt… Amber Mitchell is willing to save your life, so please don’t ever break her heart, okay?” Simon was silent and did not reply.

George Gregory looked down at him. The two pairs of similar eyes stared at each other.

“I didn’t ask her to save me. I don’t even want her to,” Simon said nonchalantly.

George Gregory said sternly, “I’ll never forgive you if you break her heart.” The childish dark eyes filled with shock. His daddy was speaking so harshly to him for the first time. He was only seven years old, but he knew enough to know that this woman.

was… very important to his daddy!

Two days later, Amber Mitchell helped Simon with his transfusion in the hospital.

Chapter 2566 2/4 When her blood flowed into Simon’s body, she had a sense of satisfaction. At least she could save her son.

However, the blood transfusion made her feel increasingly exhausted, and she became drowsy. When she was resting in the temporary ward after completing the transfusion with the nurse’s help, she fell asleep with the IV drip attached.

In her sleep, she felt as if she was lying on the cold labor table again. After experiencing heart- wrenching pain, she did not hear the baby crying. The midwife said to her with a blank face, “The baby is stillborn.” ‘Stillborn… She thought perhaps it was fated. God wanted her to have nothing to do with George Gregory, so God let their child die in her belly.

Then, she seemed to see Herman again in a daze. Herman smiled and said to her, “Amber Mitchell, you have to be happy.” ‘Happy… But how can I be happy if he’s not around?’ In a trance, Herman turned around as if to leave her.

“No…” She reached out her hand to catch Herman, not wanting him to leave. “No. Don’t leave me… Don’t…” Chapter 2566 She seemed to vaguely grab Herman’s hand, and a gentle voice said in her ears, “Amby, I won’t leave you. I won’t. I’ll never…” 3/4 ‘Never leave me?’ She felt relieved, and her lips curved into a smile. “We’ll never… separate, Herman…” She muttered the name in her deep slumber. She was not aware of it. She had no idea that George Gregory’s expression seemed to freeze, and his body froze when he heard her mutter the name ‘Herman’ as he stood at her bedside.

She had just called out Herman’s name, which meant she did not want Herman to leave.

‘Does she even dream about Herman Moss in her sleep?’ Jealousy arose in his heart. It was so strong that he could hardly contain it.

He had always thought that perhaps she married Herman Moss and said she loved Herman Moss to repay Herman Moss for saving her life. Perhaps she even did it just to annoy him.

However, when she called out Herman Moss’s name in her sleep, he suddenly realized that maybe she truly did not love

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2567-“Amby, don’t love Herman Moss, okay? Don’t love him… I beg you. Don’t love him… Okay…?” The hoarse voice rang in the ward, sounding as though there was a lump in his throat.

He lowered his head and rested his forehead on her mutilated right hand as if he were pleading with all his strength.

It was already dark when Amber Mitchell woke up.

She found that the IV drip had been removed when she raised her hand. ‘What time is it?’ She sat up instantly and heard a sound.

“You’re awake.” Amber Mitchell was surprised to see a figure standing up from the couch in front of her and heading toward her.

It was… George Gregory.

“What are you doing here?” Amber Mitchell asked in a daze. Then, she realized that she had asked a silly question. This was a temporary ward in the hospital. No doctors or nurses Chapter he?

would kick him out if he wanted to be here 2/4 Amber Mitchell pulled back the sheets and got out of bed “Vm going home” However, her legs gave way as soon as her feet touched the floor. She stumbled forward.

George Gregory leaped forward and grabbed Amber Mitchell. “You gave Simon so much blood and fell unconscious for ten hours. You’re very weak right now” “George Gregory, let go of me!” Amber Mitchell said, trying to push him away.

However, he picked her up in his arms and put her back on the hospital bed. “Just stay in bed and don’t go anywhere. The doctor will come and run some more tests on you later.” George Gregory said as he pressed the nurse’s bell at the bedside.

Moments later, the nurse and doctor arrived. After checking Amber Mitchell’s temperature and blood pressure, as well as running some basic tests, the doctor said, “Everything is okay. There aren’t any problems. But it’s better for her to eat porridge or something that’s easy to digest. She’ll be able to eat normally tomorrow. Also, she’d better stay in the hospital for observation tonight and only go through the discharge Chapter 2567 formalities tomorrow.” Amber Mitchell wanted to get out of bed again after the doctor and nurse left.

3/4 George Gregory stopped her and said, “Do you still want to leave? The doctor said to keep you overnight for observation.” Amber Mitchell sighed in frustration. “I’m just going to the hospital’s cafeteria to see if they have porridge.” George Gregory was relieved. Since when did he become so cautious in front of her that even the smallest move could lead him to make such speculations?

“I’ve got someone to prepare porridge. I’ll ask them to bring it over,” he said.

“No.” Amber Mitchell refused without hesitation.

His expression stiffened. “The porridge is still hot. I also asked them to add nutritious ingredients. The best you can get in the hospital’s cafeteria is plain porridge.” “No thanks. I can go downstairs and buy some plain porridge myself,” she said. She waved his hand away from her and walked out of bed.

She carefully got out of bed this time, and her legs did not Chapter 2567 give way like before when she almost collapsed.

4/4 However, just as she had put on her shoes and walked out of the ward, he suddenly grabbed her. “Are you not willing to accept anything that comes from me? Not even a bowl of porridge?”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2568-She glanced at him, and her lips slowly parted as she uttered, “Yes.” However, the word seemed to cast him into hell.

He looked at her blankly and did not realize when he had let 1.

Even after she left the ward, he still stared at his hand in a daze like a sculpture.

Her warmth still lingered on his hand, but it seemed as though he could never close the distance between them!

Amber Mitchell ordered a bowl of plain porridge and a plate of side dishes at the hospital’s cafeteria before eating at a small table.

After eating, she did not return to the ward but went to the floor Simon’s ward was on.

Due to the transfusion, Simon was moved into a sterile ward again. Amber Mitchell could only watch her son through the glass window.

Chapter 2568 She learned from the nurse that Simon was doing well. It would take a few days to see how much effect her blood would have on his condition.

2/4 It did not matter to her whether the child would eventually acknowledge her or not. All she wanted was to make sure he was alive and had a bright future.

After staying there for some time, Amber Mitchell was about to turn around when she saw that George Gregory was standing behind her.

“When Simon is better, I’ll tell him that you’re his biological mother,” he said.

“It doesn’t matter even if you don’t tell him. It’s good enough that he knows Louise Mitchell isn’t his biological mother.” Even if she did not care about the title, she did not want her child to acknowledge the woman who caused her all her misery as his biological mother.

“I won’t let my child regard Louise Mitchell as his biological mother. I’ll tell him all the crimes Louise Mitchell committed when he’s older and able to distinguish right from wrong. I can also help you get back all the shares Louise Mitchell took from you,” said George Gregory.

However, Amber Mitchell’s expression remained unfazed even after hearing that. “I’ll find a way to get back the shares Chapter 2568 Louise Mitchell took myself. It’s your decision whether you wish to tell Simon about Louise Mitchell. You don’t need to explain it to me.” She walked past him, intending to get back to her ward.

He immediately called and stopped her. “Amby, must you reject me like this?” 3/4 Amber Mitchell paused and turned to look at him. “Stop calling me Amby. Also, I’m rejecting you because you rejected me first. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous for you to say that now?” At that moment, George Gregory felt as if something was stuck in his throat. He could not say a word!

When she was discharged from the hospital the next day, Amber Mitchell went to see Simon again. Simon was already awake, but he had a tube attached to his nose and a drip stuck to his hand as he lay on the hospital bed.

Amber Mitchell could only look at the child in the sterile ward through the glass window.

Simon also saw her and pouted at her, which made Amber Mitchell smile. Whether or not the little one still hated her, she hoped that her blood could help him. She wished for the child

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2569-She stepped out of the hospital. Once she reached the hospital’s entrance, she hailed a taxi to leave. A figure slowly walked out from behind her and watched the taxi drive away.

George Gregory smiled bitterly. He had done nothing and just coldly looked on back then.

He now wanted to do something, but she was unwilling to accept him. Simon was now the only connection between them.

Two days later, Philip Barlow was surprised to receive an invitation from George Gregory. They were both in Deer City and had business deals together, so he dared not refuse.

However, George Gregory’s sudden invitation made him curious.

The venue was an exclusive club in Deer City. By the time Philip Barlow arrived, George Gregory had already set up a table full of fine wine and delicious food.

“You didn’t ask me here today just to dine with me, did you?” Philip Barlow asked as he raised his eyebrows.

Chapter 2569 2/4 “It’s to thank you. Thank you for saving Amber Mitchell,” said George Gregory.

Philip Barlow’s eyes glimmered. “You don’t have to thank me. I was just doing someone a favor. If you really want to thank someone, you should thank the Reed couple of Emerald City, Brian, and… Amber Mitchell’s best friend, Kyla. They’re the ones who helped Amber Mitchell!” George Gregory said bitterly, “I will. I’ll thank them for helping Amber Mitchell!” He spoke as he filled his and Philip Barlow’s wine glasses. “But I’d like to thank you no matter what. Amber Mitchell would probably have suffered a little longer if it weren’t for you. I’ll down my drink to show you my gratitude!” George Gregory raised his wine glass and drank it in one gulp, then another one. He drank three glasses in a row.

Philip Barlow picked up his wine glass and drank from it as well.

“It seems Amber Mitchell is your son’s biological mother,” said Philip Barlow. Although there was no word in the news about who Simon’s biological mother was, the answer was not hard to guess.

George Gregory said sarcastically, “Yes, it’s Amber Mitchell.

Chapter 2569 It’s funny that I didn’t know that until now. What’s funnier is that I found out I’ve been kept in the dark. Everything I believed in turned out to be wrong!” “Better to know now than never to know at all, no?” Philip Barlow asked.

3/4 George Gregory smiled bitterly. For a moment, he did not know which was better.

“Tell me about Amber Mitchell’s condition when you saved her. Tell me what you know,” said George Gregory. All he knew was what was said in court and nothing else.

If he had gone to the mental hospital to see her even once, many things might not have been dragged on until now.

Philip Barlow said, “What’s the point of finding out now? It’ll only make you feel worse about yourself. Some things are better left unknown.” George Gregory said, “But I want to know about it. Even if it’ll only make me more miserable, it’s… the pain that she went through. I didn’t protect and save her, so I deserve to suffer now!” Philip Barlow sighed and finally told George Gregory what he knew.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 2570-Philip Barlow fold George Gregory how Amber Mitchell was tortured in the mental hospital and about the basement of the Mitchell family’s mansion where Louise Mitchell hid Amber Mitchell.

Even an onlooker like Philip Barlow could not help sighing at the incident. An heiress who used to be so glamorous was reduced to such a state.

George Gregory could only feel a throbbing pain in his heart.

It was so severe that it was difficult for him to breathe.

The woman he took great care of had suffered such treatment, but he… had something to do with it!

He failed to protect her and even put her through all that pain.

‘Did she grow to hate me when she was suffering?

‘I deserve her hatred! What was I doing while she was tortured? I was enjoying being a happy family of three!

‘What… What have I done?’ Chapter 2570 2/4 When Philip Barlow was done speaking, he looked at George Gregory and found that the man in front of him was already in tears.

No one in Deer City had ever seen George Gregory cry like this! One could tell that he was extremely miserable.

“That’s all I know,” said Philip Barlow.

“That’s… all… muttered George Gregory before suddenly laughing, but his laughter sounded so sad. What Philip Barlow said just made him feel distressed. Then… all those years of… He could not even imagine it.

Philip Barlow sighed. Indeed, sometimes, it was better not to know.

The meal eventually turned into a drinking session with George Gregory drinking glass after glass as if trying to vent all the anguish in his heart. Philip Barlow accompanied him to drink a little.

He did not drink much, though. He controlled himself.

In the end, George Gregory was terribly drunk.

Philip Barlow looked at the time and said, “I’ll have someone take you home.” He walked over to George Gregory’s chair Chapter 2570 and helped him up as he spoke.

3/4 George Gregory shouted, “Tell me… Why… do I still feel so bad after drinking so much? Why did things turn out this way? Why wasn’t I the one… who rescued her…” “It’s already happened. There’s no point in thinking about the past now. Instead, why don’t you think about how you can get her to forgive you?” Philip Barlow said.

However, George Gregory sobbed. “No, she won’t forgive me… She’ll never forgive me for as long as she lives.” Suddenly, George Gregory grabbed Philip Barlow’s arm. It was as though he was about to drown and finally managed to grab onto a piece of driftwood. “Tell me. What do I have to do so that Amby can forgive me and fall in love with me again…” Philip Barlow looked at the miserable-looking George Gregory and could only reply, “I don’t know. It’s because I’ve never wanted anyone to fall in love with me.” George Gregory muttered, “Then you… You must have never been in love with anyone. It’s nice not to have loved anyone… all your life… That way, you won’t be as miserable as I am… But… I can’t… I can’t help loving her…” George Gregory’s crying made Philip Barlow sympathize with him.
