After leaving Hoikong Village.
Nathan drove home. On the way, he received a message from Ariana.
“Mr. Nathan, is your boss satisfied with the documents?”
Nathan did not think much at the news, and answered her.
“That’s fine.”
Finishing it, Nathan removed the Whatsapp interface, unconsciously, opened the address book, and saw a familiar name.
Yanis.
They had not seen each other for a long time since when they returned from abroad, also not keeping in touch. On that day, Yanis had already told her what he wanted. If she was going to bother him again, it really wouldn’t be gentlemanly behavior.
So he had been holding back from meeting her.
He did not know how she was for a long time.
Finally Nathan restrained himself from calling her on the phone, and continued driving the car.
However, Nathan unconsciously arrived at Yanis’ previous company.
Because it was the weekend, there were no people in the building. Nathan stopped the car, rolled down the window and looked at the entrance.
He kept his eyes on the door, imagining what Yanis looked like when he went to work.
Before returning to the homeland, she must have been very happy to go to work in a nice skirt and a cute handbag, and she was hurrying to the company with short steps. If she was anxious, maybe she would drop the little things in her hands.
If she bent down to pick it up, it was possible that more things might fall out because of the hurried posture.
After all, it gave her a forgetful impression. Nathan didn’t like girls of this type before. But if he were Yanis, he would think she was very pretty.
Imagination really could make people irrational.
Nathan suddenly remembered a phrase.
“People in love are stupider.”
He didn’t dare call Yanis, and stopped the car under the building with no one in it. He really was a fool.
A while later Nathan left the building.
Time flowed hastily.
Yanis stayed at the hospital to take care of Mateo. The couple watched everything Yanis did carefully and, secretly, Brisa often praised her to Mateo.
-Mateo, don’t you think your daughter will come to her senses this time? She doesn’t have a single complaint, as if she’s not tired or angry?
Listening to her, Mateo nodded his head, -You are right, she really comes to her senses, she thought the relationship between us would be broken when she didn’t see each other for 5 years.
-What nonsense is she saying! As much as it is, you are father and daughter. While you are not stubborn enough, how could the relationship be broken?
Stubborn enough? Hearing these words, Mateo subconsciously frowned, -How stubborn am I?
-No? Your daughter is already an adult, whatever it is, you love to put a stop to the things she wants to do, you even say you want to sever the relationship between you. Do you expect her to spend her whole life under your influence?
Mateo never thought so. When Brisa said it, he was suddenly speechless.
A while later, he said hopelessly, -I never thought that I would want to limit my daughter’s life, it was just that at that time, it was very difficult to get a job, her scornful attitude made me angry. And besides, if you really think that way, why didn’t you tell me before? Now you’re bringing your rags out, enough?
Brisa peeled a tangerine to herself, removed all the whites on top and popped it in her mouth. Mateo looked at her greedily, finally not getting a piece.
She really couldn’t stand it, -Eat the tangerine, why are you removing the whites on top?
Hearing him, Brisa took a look at the tangerine, she said, -I usually take them in this form, how? It’s been decades, does it still bother you?
-Besides, do you know what you just said, what do you want by saying I bring out the rags, are they really the tropes? At that moment, you had such a tough attitude that I didn’t dare to retort. If so, maybe your relationship with your daughter would break up and then she would divorce me. How did I dare?
Mateo was stunned by the rhetorical questions.
-Could you not think of me as such a bad person? We have been living together for how many years, don’t you know me? How is it possible to say divorce?
Brisa ignored him, still eating the tangerines, while saying, -Yes, I’ve been living with you for so many years, I know what kind of person you are. Just because I clearly know what you are like, when you said you were going to cut off the relationship with your daughter, you know what I was thinking? I was thinking how you had become like that, I didn’t know you like that, at that moment, I knew you had changed. Do you think I dared to say it? If I pointed it out to you, maybe I’d ask for a divorce and this house would really break up. You know? That it’s up to me to support this house.
Matthew said, -You say so much, you just take all the credit?
-What, aren’t the merits mine? During these 5 years, don’t you know how you and Yanis were? At the festivals, didn’t I call her? If I were like you, maybe the daughter wouldn’t come home and would run away with someone. Like this time, when the accident happened to you, isn’t it me who asked to return your daughter in sobs? If not, can you have a life today?
Brisa was excited as she said, “Now you want to leave me as your benefactor as soon as you don’t need my help?
If she kept talking to her, Mateo thought they were going to argue again. From the time Yanis moved in, they argued more than before. Every time after the argument, Brisa hid in the room to cry secretly. Mateo was not only angry but also remorseful and distressed.
However, he was not able to comfort her.
Now, after he experienced death, he suddenly didn’t care about many things.
At his age, there would be no need to pay any attention at all, especially among relatives. It was just a small matter, so why did she treat it seriously?
If he were in the past, Matthew might think that the other party would not forgive him for being right, would surely argue with his wife, and would finally say that she was too capricious.
But now all that wouldn’t matter to him.
Life was so short. For him at this age, he wouldn’t have much time left.
Thinking about that, Matthew let out a sigh, he said lightly, -That’s enough, Brisa, I wasn’t planning to leave you, during these years, you have devoted yourself to this house, at that time, I was confused without thinking it through.
