I Only Want You novel Chapter 862

John coughed helplessly. He wanted to laugh, but he couldn't. It was really uncomfortable to repress a smile.

"It's okay, mom."

"Mom, we are family. I feel I'm being treated as an outsider." Did she really think that her explanation was not awkward?

Lydia glared at James. What did he mean by speaking so sarcastically? Was it funny? She had eased the atmosphere a lot, but he actually said that? If she had known this earlier, she shouldn't have given birth to him!

Although she thought so, she pretended that she didn't understand what he meant and said with a smile, "Yeah, we are family. It's good to joke occasionally, isn't it? Isn't it said that joking can keep a closer relation among family members? Ha-ha..."

John coughed again and nodded, "Yeah, it's good." After that, he glanced at James.

He was warning James.

James shrugged his shoulders helplessly and stopped talking. He focused on playing with the tassels hanging over Elizabeth's shoulders.

"Elizabeth, what do you think?" Lydia asked Elizabeth.

Elizabeth nodded, "Well, I also think it's good."

In the past, she had been longing for the warmth of the family for a long time, so she cherished Lydia, John and James so much.

At that time, her uncle had to go out to work and attend social activities. It was rare for her to go back on weekends, so she could hardly see him. As for her aunt and Josephine, even if they were at home, they didn't like to talk to her. Sitting together and talking with her family was just her wishful thinking.

Hearing Elizabeth's words, Lydia was delighted. The biggest merit of her was that she would forget her unhappiness quickly. At this time, she had forgotten what James said and cheered up again.

"I think so, too. We should get along with each other in this way, right? We're family, and we can't be estranged from each other. If there's something unhappy, we can communicate and think of a solution together. If there's something happy, everyone will be happy, right?"

Elizabeth nodded, "Yeah, you're right, mom." "Alas! Speaking of this... Xavier doesn't come back, and I don't dare to call him. I asked your father to call him, but your father only said that we shouldn't be in a hurry to contact him. He will come back if he wants to." Lydia sighed and continued, "Although I know that I can't push him, but..."

"Your father and I regard him as our own child, and he is the same as Jimmy in our hearts, but sometimes it doesn't seem to be the case, because we don't know what Xavier thinks."

"For example, if it was Jimmy who had been hurt before, I could ask him. But he is Xavier, and I don't dare to ask him much. I know that he has been living a hard life these years. I understand him, but sometimes..."

"If I ask him, I'm afraid he'll be sad. If I don't ask, I'm afraid he'll think too much."

Elizabeth glanced at James, pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She knew that it was not appropriate to say anything at this time.

James frowned and felt sad in heart, "Give him some time."

John patted Lydia on the shoulder, "Xavier won't think so." "I think too much. Besides..." Lydia looked outside, "The situation is different now."

"Jimmy said that we should give Xavier some time. It's useless to be anxious. He... is having a hard time now." John said.

"Yeah." Lydia nodded, "I know, but..."

"Lydia?"

"Mom?"

After Lydia went upstairs, Elizabeth looked at John, "Dad, should I... go upstairs to see mom?"

John waved his hand, "No, it's good to let her stay alone for a while."

However, after a while, John's mobile phone hadn't rung, but he couldn't sit in the living room anymore. He grabbed the phone on the coffee table and stood up, "I'll go up and have a look. You two go to bed early." "James..." Elizabeth looked back at James who was next to her and said, "When I saw mom's sad face, I felt that I had made a right decision today. What do you think?"

"Yeah." James reached out and took Elizabeth in his arms, "Haven't we made a decision?"

"I know." Elizabeth nodded, "I just hope that... Xavier will really feel better. In that case, we'll be relieved, and he'll live a good life."

"This is something that we all hope for. However, you can't be in a hurry." James said in a soft voice, "Give him some time. We can just stay by his side to accompany him. In this way, he won't have too much pressure and it will be good for him. Furthermore, didn't you tell me that people who attend the TV show had recovered from their experiences? Maybe Xavier can really drag himself out of the morass of despair in this way."

"Do you believe me now?"

"It's better to choose to believe. What do you think?"

"Right. Call him later and make an appointment with him. Meeting him outside is good for him. After all, he may be a little embarrassed when he faces mom and dad. Tell me after you call him. Let's meet him together, okay?"
