Chapter 300
Ivy and Cory were exhausted today. They went to bed right after taking a shower upon arriving home.
Rosalynn was zoning out while sitting on the couch. Paige was doing the same.
Starting from the afternoon, she had been visibly anxious, checking her phone every minute. Now, she suddenly stopped checking her phone. Even when she received a message, she just stared at the ceiling without reacting.
“Your phone has been ringing nonstop.” Rosalynn reminded her. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“It’s just my mom sending messages in the group chat, nothing important.” Paige replied.
“Is she nagging you about dating again?” Rosalynn asked.
“Yeah, she’s always pushing people to date. If she knew you were still single and raising children on your own, she’d be nagging you too.
“Where did all this resentment come from?” Rosalynn looked at Paige “Just talk to me”
“It’s really nothing. She’s just complimenting Logan’s blind date, wishing he could marry her off right away.” Paige lifted her hand, her slender arm covering her eyes. “Logan doesn’t even care as much as she does.”
“How old is Logan this year? Rosalynn calculated, “He’s 35, right? Seems reasonable for your mom to be anxious.”
Paige didn’t say anything for a while and then said with a sigh, “Yeah, it is reasonable, I’m just annoyed with her nagging”
“Although I don’t think marriage is a necessity for humans, didn’t you used to yearn for a good partner and a warm, happy life together? How did you become so indifferent in just a few years?” Rosalynn was genuinely puzzled.
Paige was the kind of person who could pull off things like picking men in a bar.
“Who’s indifferent?” Paige muttered, “I’m just too busy to date, don’t worry, I’m annoyed with my mom too, I’ll go find someone tomorrow, six years younger!” That girl couldn’t be considered as Logan’s childhood sweetheart. She was six years younger than Logan!!
“Take it easy” Rosalynn patted Paige’s long leg.
Something was off about Paige, and Rosalynn could feel it. But with Paige, if she didn’t want to talk about it, even if you pry her mouth open, she still wouldn’t say a word
“I know” Paige’s heart ached.
Her phone would ning from time to time, but she didn’t look at it.
It wasn’t because of Peyton’s messages.
It was actually Logan.
He wanted to meet her, but Paige was tired and didn’t want to see him anymore.
They’d been in this confusing relationship for so many years. His indecisiveness and the disparity that could never be overcome between him and her, as they grew older, became reasons to snatch away her happiness.
She didn’t even remember how long it had been since she last laughed genuinely. The more Paige thought about it, the more upset she became.
After Rosalynn went back to her room, Paige snuck into the kids‘ room, kissed Cory, and curled up next to Ivy, silently shedding tears, seeking some comfort from her
Unfortunately, little Ivy was so exhausted from playing today that she fell into a deep sleep. Otherwise, she could have comforted Paige with some heartfelt words. The next day, Rosalynn took Cory, Ivy, and their godmother back to the L City.
The weather in the L City was a bit cold recently.
As Rosalynn set foot on her homeland again, the cold air filled her lungs, her eyes stung slightly, and her chest felt tight.
Mom, grandpa, grandma, I’m home.
Over at the cemetery, Calvin had already made arrangements beforehand.
When Rosalynn arrived, she didn’t encounter anyone and directly took the kids to the graves.
To her surprise, there were fresh flowers placed in front of two no, three gravestones.
“The new caretaker said that Wayne had been asking for fresh flowers to be placed here every day,” Calvin told Rosalynn His face showed displeasure as he mentioned Wayne
