Want You in My Life

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere sank again, as if there was an indescribable force that pressed them under the water.

They were depressed, uncomfortable, and choked on water in their lungs, but they couldn't control that feeling.

After a while, Hiram said in a low but deep voice, "Grandpa, I didn't mean that. I just think that Chester has the right to know the truth. After all, his mother's death had something to do with my mother. "At that moment, he felt heartbroken. When he knew the truth, he couldn't believe that his mother, whom he worshiped since childhood, would do such a thing.

However, when the truth came to him, he could do nothing but feel painful, helpless and guilty.

He didn't even have the right to reverse the confession, because no one in the world would have been poisoning others for a long time!

He didn't know who else he could think of except his mother.

"If he knows the truth, you two will fight to the death again. Back then, you two ignored your brotherhood because of Emma. If he also knows what your mother had done, you will destroy this family. "Ethan's words were sharp and cruel, just like a knife stabbing into his heart.

He sighed. His heart was torn, as if something was seeping out. He clenched his fists, with his face as pale as paper. He pursed and tightened his lips. He said word by word "Grandpa, I will be responsible for my mother's mistake. I won't take the shares of the Mo family. I want to give all of them to Chester as compensation!

"No way! "Ethan resolutely denied it. "Do you know the consequences, Hiram?"

Jonny was also shocked. He knew that his son had not been interested in the business of the Mo group these years, but he never thought that Hiram would have the idea of withdrawing his shares. The interests of the three branches of the Mo family were intertwined, but the shares were always controlled by each other. Ethan held the power and would not be partial to either side. But the eldest was usually chosen as the heir. It was obvious that Hiram gave up the right of inheritance!

And once he gave up the right of inheritance, the balance of the Mo family for so many years would be broken, and no one knew what would happen at that time!

"Hiram, are you crazy? It wasn't all your mother's fault at that time. All of us were wrong. I don't agree to your withdrawal! "Panic flashed through Jonny's eyes. He didn't expect that his son didn't care about the Mo family's business.

The Mo family was the richest and the most powerful family in the L city. It engaged in all kinds of industries and was one of the best families in the country.

And this rich family was different from other wealthy families. Ethan was in power in the Mo family!

Hiram smiled sadly, and even the sadness in his eyes was about to spill over. He said, "Grandpa, Dad, you should know what kind of person Chester is. Back then, he hated me because of what happened to Emma, and what's more, he won't give up once he knew the matter about his mother. So I give up the Mo family's shares as a compensation for him, and..."

He paused and felt as if his heart was about to explode. He breathed painfully. "And Emma was back."

Hearing that, Jonny was stunned, as if he could not believe it. He muttered "Isn't she dead? "Emma's death and Wendy's death were both taboos in the Mo family. No one had mentioned those for so many years. How could Hiram say that Emma was still alive? Then who was the person that was burned to death in the fire?

A sharp light flashed in Ethan's eyes, which were unfathomable, but soon returned to calm, like a deep pool of water, unfathomable. He raised his head, looked straight at Hiram, and said indifferently "Hiram, let's postpone the matter of Emma. We are talking about your aunt now.

Hiram didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say. Since he knew the truth, he had been immersed in a kind of anxiety. He always felt that he would lose control at any time, because the truth was so hurtful that it destroyed everything he had since he was a child, with nothing left. His mother was so gentle and noble since childhood. How could she do that?

He didn't believe it, but he had to.

Ethan continued "Hiram, you are the eldest grandson of the Mo family. You should know that this matter involves interests. You are also the grandson of the Gu family. If this matter is exposed, it is not just the Mo family involved, but the two families will both be in trouble. You should think twice before you make a decision!"

"I understand. "Hiram nodded.

"Well, you can go back first. I have something to talk with your father! "Ethan said. Knowing that Hiram didn't want to stay any longer, he let him go. After Hiram left, the tea room returned to silence. Ethan looked at his son and said "We can't let Chester know about it at any cost. I don't want our family to suffer another storm. Understand?"

"Dad, I'm sorry..." Jonny murmured.

Once lost, lost forever. How could it be Christa's fault alone to cause such a situation today?

"Well, Hiram knows the pros and cons well. Although Myron has been dissatisfied for so many years, he is more or less scrupulous about this family! He won't break this family up! "Ethan didn't want to drink tea. He put down the tea set and said in a low voice. The anger in Jonny's eyes was rising. He sighed "Dad, how could Emma not die in the past?"

"She's not dead. She's lucky! "With a light snort, Ethan hit the tea set heavily with his hand, and the teacups on it clinked slightly. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down after a while.

"Dad, didn't you go too far at that time? "Thinking of the past, Jonny murmured.

"I couldn't just stand by and watch my two excellent grandsons being destroyed because of her! "Ethan sighed slightly. When he talked about the past, he also felt bad. The news that Emma was still alive really surprised him.

Jonny sighed and said nothing more. Something couldn't be touched because it would hurt! He nodded to Ethan and said wearily "Dad, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first. It would be better if you talk about the matter to Myron! "For so many years, Jonny and Myron had quarreled a lot because of the matter of Christa, but these had all been solved by Ethan secretly.

In addition, as time went by, they were no longer as close as before, and the distance between them was getting farther and farther.

There was only Ethan left in the tearoom. He leaned back. He was really angry today. Thinking of the past, he couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his forehead and call out "Devin! "

Devin came in soon. Looking at the old man on the sofa, he nodded and said, "Mr. Ethan, what can I do for you?"

"Go and ask Denise to come here. I have something to talk with her! "Ethan said indifferently. He had to tell his wife, Denise, about the matter of Emma.

After all, Denise was Emma's grandmother! He had kept it from Denise for so many years. Although the dissatisfactions in Denise's heart was suppressed because of this family, he knew that his wife had always taken what happened five years ago in her heart. When Hiram returned to his residence, he saw that Alline was talking on the phone with someone on the balcony. Her voice was suppressed, and he could hear her thin gasp. He was standing not far away. He looked at her back, saw her trembling in pain, and heard her low and unbearable gasp. Was she aggrieved? Did she say her grievance to another man on the phone?

At that moment, he wanted to grit his teeth. He had told her many times that she was not allowed to be with other men, and she was with his old lover again. Couldn't she live with him peacefully?

"Who are you talking to on the phone? "Hiram's voice suddenly came through in a gloomy and uncertain tone.

Alline was shocked. She clenched the phone in her hand, raised her head and looked at him with tearful eyes. "A friend, Hiram, why do you come back so soon? "She didn't expect that he would come back so soon. She was so shocked that she hung up the phone without saying goodbye to the person on the other end of the phone. She stood up and walked towards him. Then she held his arm and turned her beautiful face to him. She asked gently "Have you eaten anything? I've made lunch for you. Let's go downstairs and have lunch together!"

She thought a lot along the way, and it was not good to always be hostile to him.

In this family, since she had no right to say goodbye, she'd better play up to him and let him ask for a divorce himself!

It happened that he was hungry and the anger in his heart dissipated a little. He thought that Alline's attitude was good, at least she didn't go against him. Once this woman became stubborn, he would be overwhelmed. It was rare for her to be so obedient. He was not used to it. "What did you make? "He thought he'd better put off the phone call now. Anyway, she was his wife, and no one else could reach her.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so I just cooked some dishes that I am good at. If you don't like them, we can change them next time! "Alline said softly. 'It turns out that this bastard likes gentle women!' She thought. She had seen the anger in his eyes just now, so she said like that. She didn't expect him to calm down.

"Fine. "Replied Hiram carelessly. They went downstairs and began to have lunch. The dishes were light, very suitable for his appetite. During the meal, they had a very happy time, as if they had lost the tit for tat in the HC City. Alline was taking care of him, filling soup for him, picking vegetables for him, and even shelling shrimps for him. He was very satisfied with the food. If Alline would always be so gentle, maybe he would consider to be nicer to her.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw the side face of Alline who was seriously shelling shrimps. Her side face was serious. The light shone, and her little face was covered with a faint layer of amazement. She was focused and serious. Thinking that it was because of him, Hiram was suddenly in a good mood. It would be nice if things went on like this, but he didn't know that the temporary warmth would be broken soon.
