Chapter 249 Lucky
Chapter 249 Lucky
Both Cara and Kevin were baffled by his sudden confession, and for a moment they were unable to
react, staring at him in a dumbfounded manner.
"...... what?" After a moment, Kevin asked in disbelief.
The corners of Levi's thin lips pursed hard, and once again he said in a deep voice, "The man Ruby
has been looking for from five years ago is me."
This time, Kevin stood up with a start, and Cara finally reacted, looking at him with her mouth half open.
"You - you're actually, you're the man from five years ago! You're actually, you're Olivia's real father!"
With that, she shook her head again as if she could hardly believe it, "How is this possible? How could
it be such a coincidence?"
She looked at Ruby, urgently asking her for confirmation, "What he said is really true? Did you have
him to fool me? Let me tell you, although I am old and useless, I am not demented! You two, don't try to
fool me!"
On the other side, Kevin was also busy echoing.
"That's right, sister, how can brother-in-law be that man back then! That man is not a good person, he
actually did that kind of thing! He's a scum of the earth! A beastly thing! How can brother-in-law be that
man? Don't be ridiculous, will you?"
At these words, Levi was speechless for a while, the corner of his mouth tugging.
Scum of the earth? A beast? Not a good person?
Heh ......
He didn’t know why, but when Kevin's words fell, he felt a chill run up his back and shivered.
He raised his hand to touch his nose, felt a subtle gaze staring at him, twisted his head to look over and
saw that Levi was wearing a smiling expression, his back got even colder.
Ruby was amused by the reaction of the two, and hurriedly explained.
"Grandma, he is not lying, and we have no need to lie to you, the man back then was indeed him."
At these words, the large living room was falling into an eerie silence.
Kevin and Cara seemed to be in sync, with their eyes darting back and forth between Levi and Ruby,
then landing on Levi's face in unison, staring at him as if they were seeing him for the first time.
After a few moments, Cara finally spoke up, "Levi, are you really the man from back then?" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Levi's heart thudded and he sensed something bad.
He straightened his serious face, nodded solemnly, and then explained roughly what happened five
years ago before Cara became furious.
"...... Grandma, I know it's too late for me to say anything now, but at that time, I really didn't mean to
hurt Ruby, and I also made a vow at that time to be loyal to Ruby for the rest of my life, only that later
on, by a mistake, I missed these five years, but my vow still remains the same. Please believe me."
He didn't expect such a complicated thing to have happened on that night five years ago. Cara didn’t
know what to say.
But she was sulking in her heart.
When she thought of the hardships Ruby and Olivia had endured over the past five years, she felt bad.
Kevin also felt the same way, as his only close family members were Cara and Ruby, and he naturally
felt sorry for his sister when he learned of this terrible affair.
No one said a word for a while, and the atmosphere became cold, the air seemed to freeze and stop
flowing.
For the first time in his life, he felt that this scene was even more tense and nerve-wracking than
receiving a review from his superiors.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more wrong, Ruby sighed softly in her heart and
opened her mouth in a soft voice.
"Okay, okay, Grandma, Kevin, I've already talked to Levi about what happened five years ago, and I've
forgiven him for what he did. He didn’t meant to do it, and it didn’t do me further harm. Let bygone be
bygone, for now, Olivia’s illness is in priority.
”
At the mention of Olivia's illness, both Cara and Kevin's faces changed.
In the end, it was Cara who sighed long and hard, her old, wrinkled face filled with helplessness and
despair.
"Who could have imagined that you would meet in that bar five years ago, and who could have
imagined that the situation would be like that? Who can say what is right or wrong?"
"Grandma......" said Levi, who was moved by the words.
The old lady interrupted him and asked in a deep voice: "Levi, I only ask you one question now. Do you
dare to answer me truthfully?"
Without any hesitation, Levi nodded to her, "You may ask."
"Everything before was a ridiculous past, I only ask you, nowadays, what exactly do you have in mind
for Ruby?"
What she cared most about was how Levi would view her marriage to Ruby after he knew the truth.
At these words, Levi’s face, which was always calm and cold, changed slightly, and a touch of
bewilderment crossed his face.
The next second, the corners of his mouth curved, and a touch of delight and satisfaction floated
between his brows.
"Grandma, I understand your concern, you are worried that I will continue to stay with her because of
my guilt towards Ruby, but don't worry, you are completely over-worried. Back when I proposed to
Ruby, I have already thought, no matter who she is, what kind of woman she is, what kind of identity
she has, no matter whether the road ahead is smooth or rocky, she will always be my wife, someone I
will cherish and love for the rest of my life."
When he said this, it was as if he remembered something, and the smile on the corner of his mouth
deepened.
"Besides, I admit that I still had some misgivings before, because I had made a vow about what
happened five years ago, that I would never let go of that woman, and I had therefore struggled and
torn between my feelings for Ruby and my past responsibilities, but I was never able to escape my
feelings for Ruby, but now, well, Ruby is the same woman from five years ago. This is God's generosity
to me, and there is nothing that makes me feel more fortunate than this event." lightnoveldaily.com
