Jason looked at the red spot on the back of his hand in surprise.
He couldn't have imagined that the person who used to be eager to get close to him
now would avoid him.
When he came to his senses, he wanted to catch up but was stopped by Willow.
"It's all my fault, Jason. Although I knew the two kids were pretending to be sick, I still insisted on celebrating my birthday with you. Now Melody is mad at me. I really shouldn't have done that."
Pretending... to be sick?
My mind went blank.
I slapped Willow at the time I realized what that meant.
Jason first had a guilty look, but soon changed his expression.
He protected Willow behind him and looked at me warily, "Melody, Willow suffers from depression and you dare to hit her. Are you crazy?"
I ignored his rebuke.
I stared at Willow and said, "You'd better keep your mouth shut."
Willow felt wronged, "Melody, it is indeed wrong to pretend to be sick. Is this how you raise two children? No wonder Jason said that you have taught them bad things... I won't say anything more."
I moved over to give her another slap, but she hid behind Jason.
I looked at Jason, "Do you also think they are faking to be ill?"
He was silent.
Looking around, the two children were not here.
He did not care, "Where did you send them to for this time?"
He didn't believe me.
Whenever he returned home, he would see the table full of his two children's medicines and medical records.
But he never came back home once.
I thought of the two children who wanted to have a family reunion and see the sea after they knew they didn’t have long to live.
I went to Jason and even begged him.
In the end, I promised him that I would never bother him again after this time.
I would like to set him free.
At that time, he was slightly stunned and looked down at me condescendingly.
There was joy and other complex emotions in his eyes, "Do you mean it?"
"Yes." I slowly closed my eyes and tears welled up.
My grandfather saved his grandfather's life, so we have been engaged since childhood.
When I grew up, my grandfather asked me if I was still willing to marry Jason.
I nodded and said yes.
Because I have liked him since I was a child.
Grandpa took charge of organizing the wedding.
It was because of my nod that he had to watch Willow go abroad.
On the wedding day, he ran away for Willow.
I became the laughingstock of the town.
