Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1106

Gloria was completely helpless now. At her wits' end, she really wanted to leave all her worldly troubles behind her but, before she died, she had to clear her debt, especially since her debtor was someone who was as honest and upright as he was poor.

"Lincoln Lynn, no matter what, we were husband and wife. Give me three thousand dollars. I need to return two thousand dollars to Mr. Scott. The remaining thousand, just think of it as compensation for all the years I spent with you." 1

Lincoln sneered, "What a perfect plan you have there! It’s not that I can’t afford three thousand dollars, but if you are lying to me..."

"I am in this situation now, so why would I lie to you?" Gloria laughed pitifully.

"I'll go with you! If you're not lying to me, then I will give you the three thousand dollars you asked for!" Lincoln said viciously.

He was willing to go to a remote little village thousands of miles away with her, not because he was worried that Gloria would lie to him, but because an idea suddenly popped into his mind. If Gloria and her daughter stayed in that remote mountain village, or if she remarried a villager, then he would not have to worry about her again for the rest of his life!

After making his decision, Lincoln left immediately and brought Gloria and their daughter to the Lame Scott’s hometown, which had also become Sabrina's hometown.

When they reached Lame Scott's house, Lame Scott was surprised to see them. He never expected she would really be here to return his money to him.

Lame Scott told Gloria the truth, "Since I was a child, I’ve had a lame leg. I’m also infertile, and that’s why no woman has been willing to marry me. If you don't find me disgusting, then let's keep each other company. Even though we're poor, as long as I have a bite to eat, you and your daughter will not starve either.”

Hearing Lame Scott's words, Gloria's tears poured down her cheeks in an instant.

She placed her daughter, who was soundly asleep, on the ground, and threw her arms around Lame Scott and called out on the spot, "Dear, from this moment onward, you're my husband. I'll stay here for the rest o f my life. I won't go anywhere. This is my fate."

At least her grandmother was a woman who had seen the world, was knowledgeable and cultured, was an excellent pianist, and even a talented artist. But Sabrina's mother on the other hand, even though she was a decent piano player, could her playing the piano earn her a living?

Especially in a remote mountain village like the one she lived in.

Gloria often mumbled to the one- or two-year-old Sabrina, "Your mother should have been the daughter of a rich and prestigious family, but unfortunately I'm not fated to lead that life. Your grandfather never acknowledged me either. As the youngsters like to say, all your grandfather did was provide one of his sperm. That's why, since I was born, I was disliked and cast aside. And because of this, your grandmother tried her best to protect me. To give me a better future, she exhausted herself, burning her life force away. It’s all my fault. Back then, I couldn't understand her. Now that I have you, I understand the reason for all her hard work and effort. What a pity, my child! I'm not as capable as your grandmother. I can't provide you with the comfortable life that your grandmother provided m e, but I'll try my best. I'll raise you to become an outstanding child and send you to university, so you can decide your own future."

The young Sabrina seemed to understand her mother’s ramblings, but that was hardly possible for a child of her age.

But, she was an obedient and sensible girl, ever since she was a child. Before she was of schooling age, when she was only four or five years old, she already started helping her father carry water from the local well because she knew her father had difficulty walking. Not only that, he was barely literate.
