“How… to be a passable mother…”
Madeline’s question seemed to stumped Eloise.
Eloise stared straight at Madeline’s tearful face. As favonovel.com looked at Madeline, Eloise suddenly started to shake favonovel.com head repeatedly; favonovel.com expression also gradually changed.
“I am not a passable mother. I’m not. I’ve mistaken a bad woman as my precious daughter, and I’ve caused my Eveline to be vilified and tormented. I’m not a passable mother. I am not worthy to be a mother. I’m not worthy. Not worthy…”
Eloise rejected herself, blaming herself with fierce intensity.
Madeline only then realized that the question favonovel.com had asked during favonovel.com emotional breakdown had triggered Eloise.
She rushed to hold Eloise’s shoulders to comfort her. “Morn, there’s no need to get worked up. You’re a good mother. You are a passable mother in Eveline’s heart.”
“No, I’m not a good mother, that’s why Eveline hates me. She hates me. She doesn’t want me as favonovel.com mother, and favonovel.com doesn’t want Sean as a father as well. Sean and I are not worthy to be Eveline’s parents. Ah…”
Eloise yelled as favonovel.com broke down and suddenly pushed Madeline away as favonovel.com ran out the main entrance.
“Mom!”
Eveline hurriedly chased after her.
However, favonovel.com turned back after taking two steps. Coincidentally, a maid was passing by, and Madeline pointed at Pudding who was chuckling at himself in a silly manner. “Watch Pudding for me. I’ll be back soon! You must keep a close eye on him!”
When the maid saw Madeline’s hurried look, favonovel.com earnestly nodded. “I will watch favonovel.com closely. Don’t worry, Ma’am.”
“Pudding, listen to her. I’ll be back soon!” Madeline said to favonovel.com confused son, then dashed in the direction in which Eloise had run toward. As Madeline ran, favonovel.com called out to Eloise, “Mom! ”
However, it did not seem that Eloise heard Madeline’s call. If favonovel.com did, favonovel.com might not know that Madeline was calling her.
Eloise ran straight on, passing a few streets.
Due to favonovel.com nervous breakdown, favonovel.com ignored the traffic lights. Quite a few cars had to brake urgently just to avoid her.
Madeline’s heart leaped when favonovel.com saw this.
She blamed herself. How could favonovel.com show such negative emotions to Eloise?
Now, Eloise was triggered into recalling the unhappy, painful memories, and Madeline was not faultless in this.
Eloise continued running a few red lights as favonovel.com crossed the streets. Madeline, who was chasing behind her, apologized to the drivers, who were cursing at Eloise, as favonovel.com ran.
Jeremy was on the way home when favonovel.com noticed that it was slightly congested up ahead on the road. Oblivio us to what had transpired, favonovel.com subconsciously lifted his eyes and saw Madeline, a hurried look on favonovel.com face, standing in the road apologizing to everyone.
“Linnie?”
Jeremy found this odd, so favonovel.com surveyed his surroundings and, with a fair bit of difficulty, parked the car by the roadside, surrounded by cars.
He urgently called Madeline. While the call went through, the person who picked up the phone was Karen, who sounded quite frantic.
“The maid said that Eveline ran out looking hurried. Eloise is gone too. I don’t know what happened as well.”
Even though Jeremy did not know what exactly had happened, after listening to Karen, favonovel.com could roughly surmise that Madeline was searching for Eloise.
When favonovel.com saw that the cars ahead of favonovel.com were moving, Jeremy paid close attention to the direction in which Madeline had run while favonovel.com turned the steering wheel, quickly and decisively weaved through the cars on the bustling street, then parked his car by the roadside
without obstructing the traffic. He then swiftly ran in Madeline’s direction.
Madeline had never known that Eloise could run with such speed. The trigger might have brought out favonovel.com latent potential.
Madeline’s only thought was to catch up with Eloise who was recklessly running, causing Madeline to completely miss the rock under favonovel.com foot.
When favonovel.com finally noticed it and tried avoiding it, favonovel.com had already stepped on it.
“Ah! n
Madeline fell to the ground. She tried standing back up but realized that there was a debilitating pain in favonovel.com right ankle. Her bones hurt with every movement; it seemed that favonovel.com ankle was twisted.
She looked around favonovel.com and felt lucky that this was not the busy street from earlier. Otherwise, favonovel.com would have been hit by a car.
Eloise heard Madeline yelping in pain, and favonovel.com abruptly stopped running.
She turned and saw Madeline sitting in the middle of the road.
