Chapter 284 Don’t Judge
Sure enough, Nolan guessed it right. Elbert still went to find Peyton.
In the past, Peyton’s life was hanging by a thread. Among the numerous choices made by the Chase family to either let Helena live or let her die, only Elbert did not make a decision.
Peyton did not hang up the phone and said politely but distantly, “It’s me.”
“You were indeed alive!”
Elbert’s voice sounded excited as soon as he heard it.
Fortunately, she had someone send a teddy bear phone watch, which let people know that she was still alive. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Originally, Elbert just dialed her number out of curiosity, but he didn’t expect it to actually connect.
“Elbert, just because I was alive doesn’t mean I had to donate bone marrow to your wife.”
Before he could even speak, Peyton clearly rejected his
intentions.
“Peyton, I wanted to talk to you.”
“This might not be possible.”
Peyton lazily lay on the lounge chair, holding a coconut in her arms. The refreshing sea breeze coming towards her felt

pleasant, as if warm hands gently caressed her cheeks.
Look, even the sea breeze is gentler than her mother.
“Peyton, I know you didn’t like Helena and the Chase family. As elders, we shouldn’t judge anything about your younger
generation.”
Peyton interrupted directly, “Since you can’t judge, then don’t judge. I don’t need your judgment or apology.”
“Peyton, I know that nothing I say can change the resentment in your heart. I just want to tell you that your mother’s situation is not good. Over the years, she hasn’t been able to come back to see you not because she doesn’t want to, but because of my special status, it’s inconvenient for me to go back to the country. Your mother really misses you!”
Peyton was too lazy to argue with him about this matter.”
He really treated him like a fool.
Even if Colette couldn’t return to her home country, couldn’t we call her?
At that time, not long after Colette had flown abroad, Peyton urged Kason to get her number overseas.
She used to wonder every day if her mother was comfortable outside, as life abroad was completely different from life in her home country. Colette was always picky, what if she couldn’t adapt?
When the phone was answered, Peyton hadn’t even greeted yet, but as soon as Colette heard Kason’s voice, she immediately
said, “We’re done. I have a new family now, so please don’t call anymore. I’m afraid he might misunderstand. That’s it, I’m busy.”
Peyton was stunned when she heard this. She had been worried for days that her mother hadn’t asked her a single question, and now she was afraid that Kason would bother her instead.
Peyton thought, “But Mom, if Dad wanted to entangle you, he wouldn’t have let you leave so easily.”
Over the years, Peyton saw clearly. Kason loved Colette, but he kept his feelings hidden and never managed to warm Colette’s heart.
In the end, even if Colette left, she wouldn’t remember his kindness, but instead be afraid that he became a burden.
Peyton found it funny.
How could her mother be such a person?
As time went by, her love for her mother still outweighed the unpleasantness caused by this incident.
During that period, she would wait by the phone every day, afraid of missing her mother’s call.
Until she was in her teens, every family stopped using landlines, but she kept that landline.
Just because she was thinking that her mom didn’t want to talk to her dad, what about her? She was her mom’s daughter, wouldn’t her mom ask her?
She would wait by the phone as soon as she finished school, and even when she went to bed at night, she would still be by
the extension.
Mom has a time difference abroad, so she can’t sleep too deeply. What if she doesn’t receive a phone call?
But she found countless reasons, and in the end, she never received a phone call from Colette.
Now that she has grown up, Colette realizes that she was completely immersed in the happiness of reconciling with her old love. Perhaps at that time, she was so eager to prepare for and conceive a new life with Elbert that she wouldn’t have remembered her existence.
Anyway, she was always Colette’s unloved daughter since birth.
She was not unloved, she was just never cherished.
Elbert had been talking for a long time, while Peyton remained silent. When he finally stopped, Peyton said, “Are you tired of talking? Why don’t you go have some water and continue?”
