Matilda Jenkins's heart trembled as she looked at his gloomy face, secretly guessing that it probably wasn't just that, right?
He continued, "Do you know who she left with? It was her ex-boyfriend. She left without a backward glance with that man who wasn't even worth a strand of my father's hair. My father ran out in the heavy rain to find her, got into a car accident, and died on the spot. The York Family felt this kind of family scandal couldn't be known by outsiders, so they announced publicly that my parents died in a car accident together."
In a cold and indifferent tone, he recounted the grudges between his parents from back then. His simple words were enough to make Matilda reminisce about how tangled that old affair was.
After hearing his recount, Matilda immediately felt that the little pity left for Mrs. Morrison at her death was detestable. How could she have the face to ask for someone else's forgiveness?
