Good bye You Never Love Me novel Chapter 211

Chapter 211 She Is Avoiding It

Jimmy was afraid that Martha would abandon him. He had always been a sensible child.

He would rather go back to life without a father than lose his mother.

His mother did everything for him.

Martha shook her head helplessly. There was a rift between her and Stefan and even Jimmy couldn't fix it.

She wouldn't force herself to let go of the bygones and start over with Stefan again...

So, she must make it clear to Jimmy that she wouldn't return to Stefan even if he accepted Stefan.

Later, when she asked Jimmy what he wanted for lunch, Jimmy shook his head, looking as if he had no appetite.

Martha felt distressed seeing so.

...

At noon, Martha thought about going back home to make some dessert for Jimmy.

Sweets always made people feel better. She hadn't made dessert for Jimmy for a long time. Hopefully, it would make him forget about the unhappy things.

On the drive back home, Martha was absent-minded.

Her mind was a mess and she couldn't calm down.

She thought of Jimmy's upset look, and the picture of Jimmy getting along with Stefan. In the end, she thought of what Stefan said.

If he died...

Some noise brought her back to reality.

She looked up and realized that it was the red light.

She stepped on the brakes. The wheels left a mark on the ground.

Martha leaned forward because the car stopped so suddenly.

Weren't it for the seat belt, she might have been injured.

She heard the horns of cars behind.

The drivers kept honking the horns.

One after another.

Martha paid no attention to them. Her eyelids kept twitching, which made her anxious.

What did Stefan mean by that...

Before she could think about it, the green light was on.

She turned left and drove into traffic.

A voice kept telling her to focus on driving and stop thinking.

It told her not to think about anything related to that man.

Arriving at the Doyle Manor, she parked the car and got out. From a distance, she saw Bianca waiting outside the door.

Martha told her that she would come back to make dessert for Jimmy on the phone.

They walked into the room talking and laughing. Martha temporarily shut the troubles out of her mind.

She changed into home clothes, washed her hands, and entered the kitchen with Bianca.

It'd been a long time since she made desserts by herself. She had almost forgotten how to do it. Fortunately, Bianca was helping her.

They had a nice cooperation, like mother and daughter.

To Martha, she had considered Bianca her mother.

"How is Dad recently?"

Having been busy with Jimmy's affairs over these days, Martha didn't pay much attention to her father.

Bianca smiled and said that everything at home was fine.

Martha nodded with a smile and told Bianca that Jimmy got better.

But she didn't tell her family that Rhys could save Jimmy.

Although Rhys was the only hope at present, she didn't trust him entirely.

Seeing that Martha was silent, Bianca gently persuaded her, "Jimmy needs the love and company of a father. You should know this."

Martha was silent.

Bianca could feel Martha's hesitation. Presumably, she also saw how Stefan gave love and care to Jimmy during this time.

"I can see that now Stefan is sincerely remorseful. We all see his attitude towards you and Jimmy... Martha, if you can't forget about him, why not give her another chance?"

Martha bit her lip, closed her eyes, and shook her head in refusal.

Bianca could see that she didn't want to face Stefan's regret.

She was avoiding it.

She was hesitant, which meant that her mind had wavered.

She didn't want to let go of the past. The hatred and pain went deep into her bones, making her cautious. She had to put on a cold amour for herself, and she didn't want to open her heart again.

Stefan, such a proud and cold person, had made concessions for her, waiting for her forgiveness, trying to make up for his mistakes.

Anyone would have been moved.

Seeing this, Bianca knew that Martha really couldn't let go.

It seemed that she should quit the idea of letting them, who had missed each other, get back together.

"If you don't want to look back, date someone new. There are always people who really like you. Maybe someone can make you happy. It's a good choice to start a new life."

Martha shook her head lightly, and said bitterly, "Bianca, I haven't fallen for anyone for years."

She had tried to forget the past and start a new relationship.

Even if she was ready to let go of all her past and hatred, she couldn't lie to herself. It seemed she couldn't fall in love with anyone again.

Rupert had been there for her for many years. Rhys had confessed his love to her while making use of her. Yet Martha couldn't accept either of them. She subconsciously resisted them.

Even though she didn't want to admit it, her heart had been broken by Stefan four years ago.

It no longer beat violently and she no longer wished for love...
