Chapter 179 He Never Cared for Her

With a smile on his face, Liam coaxed Madam Young, saying, “It’s nothing major. Mr.

Zachary just can’t decide on something and thought Iddy should have a look.”

Upon hearing this, Idris stood up and addressed Madam Young, “Grandma, I’ll go check it

out and come back soon.”

Madam Young could only nod in response and wave him off, saying, “Go ahead,”

Idris nodded. His gaze lingered briefly on me, as if suggesting I should stay and chat with

Grandma for a while. I did not look at him. My eyes fell on the half–eaten apple in my

hand, finding its taste excessively sweet. I did not like it.

After Idris left, the ward became lively again. Liam chatted with Madam Young, mostly

about his interesting encounters abroad. The ty of his stories made her laugh.

Emily sat quietly on the side. She seemed to always speak very little. Her beautiful eyes

watched Liam as he amused Madam Young, filled with love and admiration.

For a moment, I felt a bit dazed. These two had been married for many years, but after all

this time, Emily’s gaze still held love and admiration for Liam. It seemed he was truly the

light of her life.

Perhaps noticing my gaze, Emily was slightly embarrassed and averted her eyes. Her

cheeks were a bit flushed, and she said to me, “Are you thirsty? I’ll get you a glass of

water.”

Seeing her get up and go to the living room outside the ward to fill the water, I quickly got

up and followed her out. The ward where Madam Young lived was a one–bedroom–one–

living room, with everything in the living room.

I stopped Emily as she was about to pour the water out, and shook my head while saying,

Emily, I’m not thirsty.”

She nodded, her face still a little red. It was probably because I saw her being infatuated

with Liam, so she was a little embarrassed.

Seeing her reaction, I could not help but smile and said, “I really envy the two of you. You

two are so in love.”

Emily coughed softly, her voice gentle and sweet. “You and Iddy have it pretty good too,

since you guys can be together often. Liam is abroad most of the year, and we only get to

see each other for two or three months annually.”

I smiled faintly. “Didn’t grandma say that once the project in Northern Ollibery is settled,

Liam can return home?”

Emily nodded. “Yes, but there’s still a lot to handle with the project over there. We don’t

know when it will be completed.” After saying this, she looked down slightly and touched

her flat stomach, adding, “I hope the project gets done soon, so he can come back

earlier.”

Seeing her affectionate gesture, I could not help but express my surprise, “Emily, you

aren’t… are you?”

Her l*ps curved up slightly, revealing a shy smile. “Yes, but it hasn’t been long. Please

keep it a secret for now. Once Grandma’s health improves, and we all go to the resort, I’ll

tell everyone.”

I nodded and could not help but ask, “Was it during Liam’s last visit back home?”

She hummed in affirmation, a bit embarrassed. “We forgot contraception at that time. I

didn’t expect to get pregnant so soon. I just found out, but it’s a good thing. Ashley is also

growing up, and adding another baby to the family will make it more lively. You should also

take care of yourself and maybe try harder with Iddy. Who knows? You might be next.”

I smiled faintly, not mentioning my situation with Idris, and shifted back the conversation

to her, chatting about the baby.

While we were talking, a heart–wrenching cry from a woman echoed from outside. Emily

and I stopped talking and walked toward the door in unison.

Stepping out of the ward, we saw Moore. She was pale, still in her hospital gown, looking

extremely weak. It was not clear what had happened, but at that moment, her eyes were

red and tearful as she stared at Idris, her pale face showing stubbornness and resentment.

Clearly, Idris had said something to her.

Seeing us come out, Idris slightly furrowed his brows and said to Ensio, who was beside

Moore, “Help Ms. Scott back to rest.”

Ensio nodded and reached out to assist Moore, who avoided his help.

Moore, with tears on her cheeks, looked at the indifferent Idris, her voice hoarse, “So, from

back then until now, you only approached me just to repay a debt, right?”

Idris’s eyebrows were slightly knitted. There was a trace of unnoticeable coldness in his

handsome features. He did not directly answer her question but said, “Take good care of

yourself.”

It was often said that avoiding a direct answer was an answer in itself. Moore, being an

adult, must have understood.

However, it seemed she was still unwilling to accept it. Her gaze fixed on Idris, her voice

hoarse with emotion. “Did you… have you never really cared for me, not even a little bit?”
