Win Her Back

Chapter 762 Seek Justice

Terence looked at Edmund calmly, standing straight and unyielding. Since he could stand here today, he naturally knew what kind of obstruction he would encounter.

However, ever since Hester came back, he had been trapped in an endless abyss and suffering every day. He had had enough of it and didn't want it to be with trouble all the time.

"Grandpa Edmund, I understand what you said! I just hope that you can cancel the engagement with the Yu family and give me a chance!"

"Huh!" Edmund snorted as if he had heard a ridiculous joke. How could Terence make a decision on the engagement and marriage of the Liu family?

"Nonsense! Our Liu family has always been sincere. Marriage is not a game! What's more, from what aspect did Mr. Terence ask me to cancel the engagement?"

Terence kept silent, looking at the ground.

Indeed, he had no stand to ask for that.

"You can't speak it out, can you?" Lying on the rocking chair, Edmund sneered. His eyes were fixed on Terence, full of resentment.

The child of the Liu family had suffered such a great humiliation. How could he still stand here and ask for an engagement? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Hester is a poor child with a simple mind. She didn't know your viciousness before, so she ended up with such a miserable life. We don't blame anyone else, for this is what she should bear.

But now she has realized that she doesn't want to have anything to do with you anymore. As her family, we naturally support her."

"Grandpa Edmund, you're right. I know it was my fault before, and I don't dare to beg you to forgive me. However, this is the affair between Hester and me. Please don't interfere!"

Terence nodded and stood, looking at Edmund in a neither humble nor pushy way.

"I understand that you owe Derek's family. But Hester is Hester, not her mother. She has no obligation to pay for her mother's mistake!"

"Ha-ha!" Edmund mocked and clenched his fists. "Boy, it seems that you have grown up very fast these years!"

"I don't deserve it!" Terence narrowed his eyes and looked at the calm lake, but his heart was not calm at all.

It was not polite for her to visit him today, not to mention that he had just asked for canceling the engagement. But these days, when he was recuperating in the hospital and thought a lot.

Why did he and Hester end up like this? He still remembered that he had a good impression of Hester at the first sight.

He stood at the door and looked at her quietly. She was wrapped in a simple white dress. Her dark eyes seemed to be able to speak when they were rolling.

At that time, he was young and frivolous, and could always be easily touched by the depth of his heart. Hester clutched her skirt uneasily, her lips turning pale.

When they first met, it was very beautiful. Then why did the two of them become like this?

"You don't deserve it?" Edmund snorted and felt furious. "If you don't dare to admit it, you won't be here today. And you even want me to cancel the engagement! Do you really think that there is no one powerful in our Liu family?"

He didn't know how his granddaughter lived before, or he would never allow her to live like that.

"I know I was wrong before, but you can't make the engagement of Hester so hastily!" Terence frowned and couldn't help but feel anxious.

Now the situation was very clear. If it weren't for the guilt for the Yu family, how could Edmund arrange the engagement in a hurry?

"I have arranged a good marriage for my granddaughter. Don't I even have the right to do that?" Edmund was so angry that he laughed. When he quietly looked at Terence, his eyes were like sharp blades.

"Grandpa Edmund, I know you have a deep misunderstanding of me. I also know how much damage I have caused to Hester.

I also know what you are thinking about me. People always say that a fault confessed is half redressed. Can you give me a chance?"

Terence stood quietly, clenching his fists. In the past few days, he had been in a daze and a lot of things had been accumulated together, but the most distinct feeling was indeed heartbroken.

This time, he suddenly understood something and cleared his mind. Since he was sure that Sakura was Hester, it didn't matter if she refuse to admit it.

"What on earth do you want to say?" Edmund frowned impatiently, stared at Terence discontentedly and said slowly.

He was indeed a little old and got dizzy because of his few words. He was a blockhead in love, and now he was pestered by him like this, so he naturally felt mad.

"Let me tell you, Hester is now a member of our Liu family. I will never allow you to get close to her again!"

Terence sighed and looked at the ground. Before coming here, he knew that he would suffer a lot. But he didn't expect that Edmund would be so resistant to him.

"Grandpa Edmund, please don't be angry. I didn't mean that!"

"That's not what you mean?" Edmund rolled his eyes. Since Terence stood in the yard of the Liu family, he had to make his purpose clear. Did he really think that he was too old to understand?

"Terence, the reason why I let go your mother's scheme is that I don't want to have anything to do with your Qi family. From now on, don't think about Hester. She is the fiancee of Derek!"

The word "fiancee" hurt Terence deeply and he staggered. He had just been discharged from the hospital, and his face was a little pale. His thin body trembled in the wind, and he was no longer as fierce as before.

"Grandpa Edmund, please help me!"

"If you had known it earlier, you wouldn't have done that!" Edmund sighed and looked up at Terence, narrowing his eyes.

"Grandpa!" A loud voice interrupted the conversation. Leo walked in in high spirits with an unreadable expression on his face.

Raising his eyebrows, Edmund glanced at Leo, who was pretending to be calm, and slowly closed his eyes. "Why are you here?"

Well, love affairs should be left to the most sensible Leo!

"Oh, Mr. Terence, why are you here today?" Leo raised his eyebrows in surprise as if he had just found Terence. "Is it for the reason that you were beaten in the yard last time, so you come to seek justice today?"
