Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

Chapter 89: Listen Carefully



“I need your help.”

“What is it?” He asked.

“Did your parents move to Australia?”

“They’ll leave next month.”

Should Selene have been happy or disappointed? She didn’t know. She had thought that maybe they had moved already, which would’ve meant that Harry could not have met her mother.

“Selene?” Clint asked after a few moments of silence.

Selene came back to reality. “Oh, my dad just recovered from a hemorrhage. He wanted to meet your mom for one last time. Would that be okay?”

This is so ridiculous! The woman who gave birth to me is someone else’s mom. She thought.

“Okay, I’ll tell them,” Clint answered.

“Thank you.”

“That’s all right.” He paused, “Was there anything else you wanted to tell me?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“No.” Selene shook her head.

“Okay.” Clint sounded disappointed.

“Please let me know after you speak to her.”

Clint later informed Selene that his parents would visit Harry the next day.

Hearing that, Selene had mixed feelings because she couldn’t understand why they were so nonchalant about the whole situation.

She personally still couldn’t forgive them for what they’d done.

The next day at noon, Anne and Bradley arrived at the hospital in Cloudy Town. To Selene’s surprise, Clint was with them. She also couldn’t shake off the resentment she felt towards them.

Selene couldn’t even bear looking at the two for long, so she looked away. She then strode to the end of the corridor so she wouldn’t be there with them.

When she got to the end of the corridor, she turned back to take a look and saw their eyes stopping on her before they entered the room.

Even with the distance, Selene could tell that the woman’s eyes were red from crying. Clint furrowed his brows and wore a complicated expression.

Selene expressionlessly stared at them and turned back to look out of the window.

After a while, she felt someone standing by her. She tilted her gaze to look and saw Clint.

She turned back to the door of her father’s hospital room but saw no one standing there.

“Your dad asked them to go inside,” Clint explained.

“Thank you.” She calmly replied.

“It’s not me who convinced them to come. I just told them what you told me, and they decided to come. In fact…”

“You don’t need to explain. It’s none of my business.” Selene interrupted him.

“I mean, I don’t even know what happened between them in the past.” Clint smiled helplessly.

“You won’t find out.”

“They’re not evil.”

“Maybe for you. But for me, they are.”

Clint kept silent.

Selene realized that she was being unfair. No matter who his parents were, and even though he had lied to her before, what he had done for her made up for all of it.

What’s more, this may be the last time they would meet.

She turned to him. “When will you leave?”

Clint felt a little surprised by the question. “They’ll leave first. I still have some things to take care of here.” He paused for a while. “Maybe in two months.”

Clint looked at Selene with emotion in his eyes.

Selene felt uneasy by his gaze. “Oh, that’s soon.”

Clint raised the corner of his lips and smiled helplessly. “The company is waiting for me at Wall Street. I’ll go when I’m ready.”

Selene didn’t know what else to say.

But Austin arrived and saw Clint and Selene together.

Austin smiled at them and walked over. “Are they here?”

“Yes.” Selene nodded. ”They’re talking to Harry.”

“Hello, Clint. Long time no see.”

“Hello, Austin.”

Austin smiled, took out a small bag filled with cakes, and handed it to Selene. “You barely ate this morning. Have some of these cakes.”

Selene took it and took a bite out of one of them. “Have you eaten lunch?”

“I’ve been waiting for you so we can eat together.”

“I haven’t had lunch yet. Let’s eat together outside.” Clint suggested.

Selene felt a little hesitant, but Austin nodded happily. “Great idea. They’ll be busy for a while anyway. Besides, my mom will come here to bring Harry some food. She’ll be here if something happens.”

“Okay.” Selene nodded.

They walked to a restaurant across the street from the hospital. Though the establishment looked very simple, the food in it was delicious.

Austin and Selene had eaten there many times before.

Clint probably wasn’t used to eating in such places, and he was a little hesitant when he took his first bite.

“The noodles here are great!” Austin smiled.

He then picked up the beef from his bowl and put it in Selene’s. He did it so naturally, as if he had done it many times before. And Selene also casually accepted his act.

Clint looked at his own food with a low spirit and tasted it. Though it didn’t taste bad, he couldn’t feel its flavor.

Selene had little appetite, and she stopped eating after only finishing half of her food.

“Are you full?” Austin asked after glancing at her plate.

“Yes.” Selene nodded.

“Please eat more.” Austin urged.

“I can’t. I’m too full.”

Austin curled his lips and took her bowl, finishing the rest of her food.

They had grown up together and eaten together many times. They were used to sharing food, and Austin hated wasting it. So, whenever Selene didn’t finish her food, he would help her finish it.

Seeing their natural interaction, Clint completely lost his appetite.

In fact, the food was really tasty, and he was really hungry, but it now felt as if his stomach was filled with something.

For the first time in his life, he just wanted to run away. But he knew that Selene didn’t need him.

In fact, the conversation between his parents and Harry had little to do with him. He shouldn’t have come, but he used it as an excuse and had come anyway. When he finally met her, he instantly regretted it, as all hope disappeared at once.

Austin looked at him. “Is the food not good? We could order something else?”

“I’m full,” Clint said, shaking his head.
