Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 159

Hearing this, Ellis immediately got up to hold him. Joel was stunned and then bent down to hold Ellis in his arms. He walked to me and said with a smile, "That was quite a welcome."

"This is your nephew," I reminded him.

Joel smiled and asked, "And you thought I didn't know?"

'"Course not." I shook my head and asked, "Where's Emy?"

"It's cold outside, so I didn't bring her here."

With one hand, Joel held Ellis, and then dragged the suitcase from my hand. He asked, "When are you going back to City B?"

I said, "Is that really what you wanna say to your sister after she just got here?"

I looked at him, pretending to be sad. Then he smiled and said, "My little sister is getting pretty grumpy."

"I may not return to City B for the time being." Looking at the puzzled look in Joel's eyes, I explained, "Both the Shears and Jenkins Groups are in good hands, and they are recently investigating the case back in Glestin, so even if I'm there, I'd have nothing to do. I might as well stay with the two children here."

"The old case in Glestin?" Joel asked in confusion.

"It's no big deal. Just some relic of the past."

"Oh, I guess that you don't know much about the operation of the Shears family, so you still don't know what kind of gift Grandpa and I gave you."

I knew that Joel and Grandpa had set up a game for me, which involved the Dunns, the Solanges, and the Heaneys, as well as a lot more other families.

But I still didn't know any detail about it.

It actually didn't matter because I had all the time in the world to get to know about my own family. Plus, I wanted the Heaney family to draw a few last breaths peacefully.

I smiled curiously and asked, "What gift?"

"It's no use explaining. You'll know when you get back there."

Joel shut me up with a few words.

Returning to the villa, Emy felt quite curious about Ellis. Her beautiful eyes had been staring at Ellis. I put her in Ellis's arms and introduced, "This is your Brother Ellis."

"Brother Anthony." Emy said.

I corrected her, "No, this is Brother Ellis."

"Brother... Brother Eli."

I smiled and said, "That was close. Don't worry, you'll get there."

Ellis was very happy to hold Emy. He held her in his arms and continued to tell her, "I've finally got to see you, Emy."

Ellis liked Emy very much. I saw that they were having a good time and didn't bother them anymore. Then I went to the kitchen to cook.

When Joel came to the kitchen to help, he said "Go to rest. You must be very tired after a day's flight."

"It's alright. I'll make some snacks for the child children," I said. Then, as if remembering something, I asked curiously, "Where's Neil? Why didn't I see him?"

"Aunty took him to buy baby supplies." Joel washed the vegetables for me and explained, "He arrived here yesterday but I didn't bring anything like diapers with me so aunty had to buy some more for him."

"They are already over a year old now."

Joel catered to my words and said, "Yeah, it's been two years already."

The two years that Joel said should be the time when September left him. September was now someone else's wife.

"What are you going to do in the future?" I asked tentatively.

"What do you mean?" It seemed that he had come to his senses. Then he shook his head and said, "I just wanna bring Neil up and that's all."

Joel was going to stay single.

Life in Ireland was quite comfortable. After about four months living there, Ellis hid away and cried silently in a corner.

I found him and asked him softly, "Did anyone bully you? Tell me what happened."

"I miss Benjamin." Ellis looked very aggrieved. He wiped his tears and said, "I didn't want to cry, but I couldn't control myself... I miss Benjamin, but you don't obviously. Every time I mentioned him to you, you would only blow me off."

Children were very sensitive, and seven-year-old children knew a lot. I took him into my arms and wiped his tears with my hand, saying, "You can tell me about Benjamin, I will find a way to let you see him or let him call you. But a man can't cry, okay? You can cry this time but I don't wanna see you hide in a corner and cry one more time, okay?"

"Well, will you let me see Benjamin?"

"I won't cry anymore." Ellis was sobbing, and then he whispered, "I want Benjamin to live with us."

I shook my head and explained, "Benjamin has his own things to do. He doesn't have time to live with us now, do you understand?"

If that was the case, there was no need to hide it anymore.

Besides, he couldn't take the child away from me now.

I said frankly, "Maya Shears, her nickname is Emy."

Benjamin asked in a hoarse voice, "One and a half years old?"

"Yeah. It just so happens that she's one and a half!" I replied coolly.

"Bravo, Emma!"

He suddenly roared, "No matter what happens, you are either suspecting me or simply put the blame on me without letting me explain for myself a bit!"

I covered my phone with my hand and said to Ellis, "Ellis, take care of your sister and I have a few things to say to your father."

I went out to close the door and went back to my room. Looking at the bright stars outside the window, I asked, "I only knew about the existence of Ellis when he was five, so what's the big deal with not knowing about Emy for one year and a half?"

"So you punished me with our daughter?" Benjamin said in a hoarse voice, "I live in guilt every day, but now I know everything is just a lie that you made up! What the f*ck do you want me to do?"

"Benjamin, don't make it sound like it's not your fault!" I said coldly.

"My fault? Yes, as long as there's something wrong with your life, it's always my f*cking fault! You know what? Just do that, I'm dead to you anyway!"

I yelled at him, "Calm the hell down!"

"Emma, when we were back in your city, I lied to myself and thought that you were really willing to have a life with me. Although I clearly understood in my heart that you just wanted to play with me, you just pitied me at that moment... I still chose to believe in you."

He said in a low voice, "I still believed that you loved me, after all, I love you so much! So even... even if I found out that the Shears family was plotting against my company, I didn't say or do anything. I just didn't expect you to be so ruthless. You are so ruthless that you destroyed every single thing that I had and smashed them into pieces. But I still didn't care 'cause I got nothing to lose at that time anyway, it couldn't be worse than starting from scratch. So I still kept my head low and told you that I loved you. I thought saying that would keep you with me, but it didn't. You left the next day."

I felt very sad at the moment. The words of Benjamin reminded me of Sean, who said that Benjamin was the stupidest person of them all.

Yes, Benjamin was the stupidest of them all.

Benjamin said, "I was indeed wrong eight years ago, but when I met you again, I was thinking about how to be with you. Why did I ask you for the divorce agreement? I just wanted to take back the Dunn family. I wanted the Dunn family to no longer threaten you. In order to get the trust of the Dunn family and Teresa, I had been putting on an act with them all the time, trying to make them think that I loved Teresa. I'll admit that all of these couldn't look good in your eyes. But haven't you ever thought about why I chose to save Teresa? Because everyone there would save you, not Teresa. And if she really died, the Heaney family and the

Solange family would never let you off the hook!"

"Emma, your company has got nothing to do with me but you still put all the blame on me. Who gave you the right to be so cruel to me? I've carved my heart out for you but what did you do? You did nothing except pushing me farther and farther away! But I've figured it out, this is my karma. I can't hurt you just because I love you."
