Billionaire’s second wife

Chapter 12: Two Brothers Talking



Feeling that Alden was gradually regaining a little less melancholy tone, Gavin decided to continue the story. Although knowing right now, maybe not be the right time, to examine Alden’s feelings, views, and thoughts. But it is better to solve it early to avoid a long night of dreams. He wanted to help his younger brother recover as soon as possible.

It can be said that Gavin is very wary of Emma’s counterattack. It is possible that she is planning another plan after the previous plan failed. Emma must have great power behind it, so she is so bold. She alone would not dare to cause trouble with Duong Mac. Convinced of this doubt, Gavin was cautious in his steps.

“Why do you want to start over?”

Gavin calmly asked the question, causing Alden to look up at him:

“What is the real reason you want to change, give up bad habits? Is it for the family, for the parents?”

Gavin reminds me, that two years ago almost died, and coincidentally met Emma. She plays a caring angel who is not afraid of his past, making him believe that he will change for the important woman in his life. Thinking back now, more than discovering the truth, it was all her plan, the purpose of his fortune.

Alden blamed himself. It’s stupid, he changed just because of someone who didn’t deserve it.

“Do you think you are for Emma?”

Gavin said directly what he was thinking.

“I admit she gave you a reason to be better, but never forget she didn’t do it out of love for you, or for yourself. All because of the treasure I own. Above all, her behavior is unacceptable…” Gavin almost couldn’t help telling Emma all of her crimes, but if he did, it would only make Alden’s condition worse. It’s the brothers that are important. Waiting for the right time, a certain occasion, it’s not too late to say.

That’s the intention, but who knows in advance if there will be any unforeseen intervention or not.

“Do you think I love her from a sincere heart or is it caused by something?”

Instead of telling the truth, Gavin hinted at the incident.

Another question caused Alden to look at his brother in shock. That’s right, do you love Emma? After the magic potion was removed from his body, Alden found his brain a little strange. Emma’s memory is still there, but not as deeply as it once was. As for the heart, it was as if Emma never existed in it. Currently filling his heart is just anger, hatred, hate… Where has love gone?

Alden couldn’t think, thinking a lot he felt a headache.

With no reply from his brother, Gavin continued:

“I am just confused by the feeling of being betrayed, believing in the wrong person, but not necessarily the pain caused by love. So don’t complicate things too much. Think calmly, and see what you really feel in the end? If you have the correct answer, you will know what to do next.”

Gavin’s voice made Alden think again. What Gavin said makes a lot of sense. Alden also didn’t know the exact answer, given the situation he was in.

I pray to God to help you find the answer soon.

“How’s that girl?”

Alden calmed down again, remembering his unfortunate victim, and feeling a little responsible, so he asked for common sense.

“She is now slowly settling down. I asked Keva to take special care of her, so don’t worry.”

“Please pay all her hospital bills. As well as paying an appropriate amount of compensation to the victim’s family.”

The more Alden spoke, the more guilty he felt. Because of you, an innocent person is implicated.

If fate had not arranged for him to forget the document, he would not have returned home, and would not have had to witness that hideous scene with his own eyes. Then there is no mental instability that causes an accident. Alden wished he hadn’t seen the ugly images, and his wish finally came true. Temporarily he was blind. It sounds ironic, no less ridiculous. It is very difficult for God to play pranks on people.

“That you know how to handle. But there’s a little bit of a problem, not sure if money can solve it.”

Gavin said hesitantly, not wanting to pressure his brother.

“What’s wrong? Is something wrong?”

Alden couldn’t see it, but he could hear his opponent’s thoughtful tone.

The silent reply made Alden impatiently urge:

“Gavin, whatever you say, we’ll slowly find a way.”

While Gavin was still hesitant because he was afraid that Alden heard the psychological effects, leading to long-term health recovery, someone else spoke up instead.

“The consequences after the collision were quite serious, the girl broke her leg. Keva said that for the best recovery, the girl should stay in the hospital for a month. However, it is not 100% certain that the girl’s leg will recover like that. at the beginning.”

Father Alden appeared from nowhere, he calmly approached and took his hand, in order to convey confidence.

“Don’t worry, that’s for Gavin and me to handle.”

“And what about her family? Are they here? I want to personally apologize.”

Alden asked eagerly, he wanted to fulfill his responsibility until the end. Even though they hate Emma, innocent people should not be punished for no reason.

“Unfortunately, we cannot see any relatives. Her phone is completely damaged. We’re waiting for her to wake up.”

Gavin replied. He is always calm in all things, even sudden and unexpected. So he never let his guard down against the bad guys. Alden was ashamed of himself and should have trusted his brother when he tried so hard to remind him of Emma. If he’d been sober enough to resist what Emma had casually injected into his body, he wouldn’t be here, putting other people’s strengths at risk. After all, Alden himself didn’t even know how bad he was going through, so he couldn’t blame himself.

“Really?” Alden said sadly, “Now we just have to wait and see. I hope the girl doesn’t have other serious problems.”

“It will be okay.”

Gavin reassured his brother, telling him about Cara’s miracle story:

“Alden, did you know that girl is extremely lucky?”

“What does that mean?” Alden was curious.

“She was admitted to the hospital in a very critical condition. The doctors believed that she would not survive. But a miracle happened. Her heart suddenly stopped and after a while, it resumed beating. And Now like I said, she’s stabilizing. So there’s nothing to worry about. Don’t worry, don’t worry too much, it’s bad for your health.”

Alden nodded in agreement. Indeed, after hearing that, he was a bit optimistic. Isn’t the fact that he’s still alive a precious thing?

Before being allowed to go home, when leaving the hospital, Alden asked to see Cara, his victim. He and his family found her still sound asleep. Alden approached and took her hand, a few tears kept rolling down, he bitterly apologized to the young woman, his parents also apologized to her.
