Over the years, Irma had imagined about seeing her mother again for countless times. She thought that she might fall into her arms and weep bitterly, crying and assailing her why she ignored her own daughter for all these years. Or she could just throw a tantrum and tell her how much she missed her.
But when their eyes meet, Irma was relatively speechless.
The endless waiting has forced their then intimacy into strangeness.
What’s more, when Irma saw Margret, she thought of Frederic’s dead mother.
It was her fault for not being intimate with her mom anymore.
Seeing Irma’s pale face, Margret’s eyes suddenly turned red. She quickly took Irma’s hand and said, “Irma, I’m so, so sorry for all these years… You suffered a lot.”
Irma shook her head. If she didn’t fall in love with Frederic, then she would not be wronged in her life, but she fell in love with him herself. In a way, she chose to be suffered.
She did complain about Margret’s vicious behavior ten years ago, but she complained more about herself.
Margret sighed and looked at Irma and said, “Irma, I have heard about you and Frederic. I’m so sorry for you. It’s all my fault.”
Mentioning Frederic, Irma’s eyes suddenly turned red.
She quickly shook her head at Margret, unwilling to mention the past.
Anyway, she had divorced Frederic and decided to marry Bruce. Just…forget about the past.
Margret sighed slightly, looked at Bruce and said, “Can I have a minute with my daughter?”
Bruce nodded his head and Margret pulled Irma to the corner.
She glanced at Bruce and looked at Irma and asked, “Irma, do you really love this man?”
Irma froze for a moment, but did not speak.
Whether she loves Bruce or not, it’s not so important anyway. It’s not like she CAN be with the person she loves in her life.
But Margret insisted, “Irma, if you really can’t forget about Frederic and love him, just go and find him, because I’m not responsible for what happened ten years ago.”
What?
Irma looked at Margret with a surprised look. She wasn’t responsible for that?
But……
Margret said with a sigh, “Irma, I was indeed a good friend with Frederic’s mother ten years ago, and her death was indeed related to me, but I am not sorry for Fred’s family. I’m sorry for your father and you.”
Speaking of which, she was full of regret.
“What the hell happened?” Irma asked, looking at her mother.
She sighed softly and told Irma everything about ten years ago.
In the past ten years, Margret did not simply leave LA, but eloped for love, and abandoned her family and friends for love.
Ten years ago, Margret and her first love met again. Her first love was the cousin of Frederic’s mother, and they met again through Frederic’s mother.
After meeting, the two soon fell in love. The marriage between Margret and Irma’s father was originally an act of commercial cooperation. She and Irma’s father had no feelings for each other, but she knew that Irma’s father would not easily make her dream come true, so she chose to elope with the one she loved.
But Frederic’s mother found out about their elopement.
His mother did not agree with it, but neither Margret nor her boyfriend agreed. They insisted and left LA.
Frederic’s mother had to rush to the airport overnight to stop them, but also that night, Frederic’s mother had a car accident and died because of it.
Hearing this, Irma’s brow furrowed. She knew all these causes but she also heard that the car accident was designed by her mother…
