Chapter 248 You Used to Call Me Uncle Ryan
Kenneth stared at Eloise.
She had changed so much, so much...
Once radiant like a wealthy flower, she was now much slimmer, and her dress no longer had the
delicate colors of the past, but leaned towards a mature charm.
She had transformed from a girl into a woman.
In that instant, Kenneth knew that he still longed for her.
He stared intently at her face and whispered, "Long time no see, Eloise."
Eloise's emotions were out of control.
Her voice choked, and she mustered all her strength to say, "Mr. Ryan, it has been a long time."
They exchanged glances.
Madelyn found it difficult to be caught in the middle. She picked up little Everest, had the driver take the
reliable nanny to send her to kindergarten, and little Everest obediently kissed her and said, "Goodbye,
Mommy!"
Madelyn also gave her a kiss and said, "I'll come pick you up tonight!"
Everest got down from her, held the nanny's hand, and obediently went to school.
Madelyn turned around and cleared her throat, saying, "I'll make some floral tea!"
Eloise became somewhat dependent and held onto her, saying, "Sister-in-law!"
Madelyn smiled and said, "You two talk."
...
Kenneth looked at Eloise and whispered, "Come in!"
Eloise lowered her head and went in, but as soon as she entered, he grabbed her wrist and dragged
her into the bathroom.
The bathroom door closed, creating a small space.
And her back was pressed against the wall.
Kenneth propped one arm above her head, trapping her with his body. There was a faint tobacco scent
emanating from him, which made her feel somewhat dizzy...
For a long time, no one spoke.
After a while, Eloise trembled and said in a soft voice, "Let me go!"
Kenneth stared at her and lowered his voice, "I waited for you all night last night!"
She suddenly looked at him.
In those eyes, tears filled every corner, ready to fall with the slightest blink.
So she dared not blink.
She didn't want to cry in front of him. After they separated, she had endured so much hardship. What
did it matter if she cried in front of him now?
Kenneth was also struggling.
He glanced towards the direction of the door and then shifted his gaze to her face, softly asking, "Why
didn't you come home for two years?"
Eloise smiled faintly, "What does it have to do with Mr. Ryan? If I don't come home, it must be because
I'm fooling around outside... What right do you have to ask?"
Fooling around...
Kenneth's gaze became unfathomable.
He reached out and lightly touched her face, causing her entire body to tremble... Even her teeth were
chattering.
"So unwilling to let me touch you? Have you found a boyfriend?"
Eloise's face turned pale.
She stared at his eyes and whispered a word through her clenched teeth, "Yes!"
In that moment, darkness clouded Kenneth's eyes.
He loosened his grip on her.
Eloise tried her best to steady herself and asked, "Can you let go of me now? Mr. Ryan, as a charming
and elegant man like you, I'm sure you won't be short of company!"
"Mr. Ryan? Eloise... You used to call me Uncle Ryan!"
"That was when I was young and ignorant!"
...
Eloise placed her hand against his chest and pushed him away little by little, saying, "My sister-in-law is
coming over. Let go of me. Let us have a bit of dignity in parting."
Kenneth released his hold on her.
She took hold of the doorknob, gritted her teeth, and as she opened the door, she heard his hoarse
voice from behind, "Eloise, do you really want to part ways with me like this? We can restore our
previous relationship. You can call me Uncle Ryan, and I will take care of you!"
He felt sorry to her.
He thought that if she found a good man, he would bless her.
He would give her anything she wanted!
Eloise tilted her head slightly and restrained herself before whispering, "No need! I don't need it!"
She could never forget what happened back then.
She secretly went to Vadiff to give him a surprise but was kidnapped.
In the dark room, she spent 36 hours alone, without water to drink, unable even to use the bathroom,
tied to a chair like that... The kidnappers said they wanted the chip in his hands.
She was very scared.
But she thought he would do anything to save her!
But on the phone, Kenneth's voice was calm and composed, "Sorry, I don't know her!"
Later, she was rescued...
She thought he had come and she was still his sweetheart, but when she walked out of the dilapidated
shack, what awaited her was not his embrace but a beautiful scene of him standing side by side with
another woman.
It turned out she wasn't the only one who was kidnapped.
He claimed not to know her, left her to fend for herself, but used the chip to save other women.
She saw him embracing that person, seeing his tenderness.
Only later did she find out that she was one of his beloved confidantes!
In Vadiff, every woman who adores Mr. Ryan is more charming than Eloise, more gentle and
considerate.
She stood before him looking miserable...
That word "Uncle Ryan" could never be uttered again.
He had someone settle her in, and only late at night did he enter her room. The first thing she said
when she saw him was, "Eloise, let's end this here!"
She looked up and still asked... why!
Kenneth sat on the couch, quietly watching her for a long time before uttering, "We're not compatible!"
Tears welled up in her eyes.
She didn't let him stay.
She choked and said softly, "Okay! Goodbye, Uncle Ryan!"
That was the last time she called him Uncle Ryan, and also the last time she saw him.
Kenneth couldn't bear it.
He wanted to give this innocent girl who loved him wholeheartedly a final hug, but she dodged him,
restraining her voice, "I'll leave... tomorrow morning!"
Kenneth hesitated, staring at her for a while, and then left.
As soon as the door closed, she started crying.
On the bathroom counter, there was a used pregnancy test stick with two faint pink lines on it.
Before he came, she had thought about telling him that she was pregnant.
But he told her it wasn't appropriate...
...
Looking back, his heart still ached.
As he walked out, Madelyn sat on the couch in the lobby with two cups of coffee in front of her.
Seeing tears in Eloise's eyes, she gently smiled, "Finished talking? Come over and have some coffee!"
Eloise sobbed and called out, "Sister-in-law!"
She sat next to Madelyn, feeling extremely miserable.
The man she once loved so passionately, from beginning to end, was nothing more than a momentary
pleasure for him! What was even sadder was that she still loved him, but it was because of that love
that she couldn't forgive herself or him!
Madelyn let her lean on her shoulder.
Kenneth came out, and the atmosphere was delicate. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
There were certain things he couldn't explain to Eloise, and he couldn't explicitly tell Madelyn... After all,
no matter what, he had let her down.
Kenneth whispered, "Take care of her! I'm going back to Vadiff."
He was leaving...
Madelyn asked softly, "Uncle, when I asked you last time if you ever thought about starting a family,
now... I want to ask again!"
Kenneth paused his steps.
Actually, there were thoughts of it.
During the six months when he was with Eloise, he had thought about starting a family because that
time was too beautiful for him. It was beautiful like a poison that was difficult to quit!
But what did it matter?
Now, he couldn't say it.
Kenneth's voice turned chilly as he softly said, "No."
Madelyn nodded. "I understand. By the way, Uncle... Grandma is here. Everyone is heading to the
Clarks' mansion now!"
Kenneth turned around.
Eloise's face also lost color.
Madelyn sipped her coffee lightly and then smiled. "It's not me who invited her! She insisted on coming
to apologize!... Uncle, older people tend to be more conservative."
Kenneth's gaze fell on Eloise's face, and she looked back at him.
Neither of them ever thought that the absurdity of those six months would continue to this day.
Finally, Kenneth whispered, "Let's go."
Eloise refused to ride in the same car with him and insisted on taking the driver's car, while Madelyn
said she wanted to change her clothes and would join later... The two cars left, and Eloise made a call
to Benjamin and asked him to come along!
Half an hour later.
Kenneth's car arrived first, and he bumped into Athena at the entrance of the Clarks' mansion.
Athena had a grand scene, with a total of 18 black cars and 12 servants to carry gifts. It seemed more
like a marriage proposal than an apology.
Kenneth had a lot of influence outside, but he was particularly filial.
When the old lady glared at him, he had no way to resist.
The Clarks' mansion was very big, so it wasn't a problem to park 20 cars. The cars filled the mansion
instantly.
When the butler reported, Alexander was playing on the lawn with Emerson.
Emerson was rolling a soccer ball and never grew tired of it.
After the butler finished speaking, Alexander lit a cigarette and exhaled a smoke ring slowly. "Let them
come!"
It was a good opportunity to meet this child!
The butler immediately went to invite Athena and Kenneth, smiling and saying, "Mr. is playing with the
young master over there. There's a pavilion. Grandma and Mr. Ryan might as well go there!"
Athena immediately took her son and went over.
Alexander was holding a cigarette, looking from a distance.
Well!
He still remembered the first time Kenneth came to the Clark family. The grandeur and aura were as if
he wanted to conquer the Clark family. But today...
Following his mother, he appeared so submissive and lowly!
Athena approached closer.
The butler led them to sit in the gazebo and served them coffee.
Alexander carried Emerson over, the little one was sweating profusely from playing. Alexander took a
towel from the servant's hand and wiped away his sweat, holding him like a precious treasure on his
lap.
Athena initially didn't pay much attention and was still contemplating how to speak.
But then, a glance!
Something wasn't right!
This little face and hair color, they were carved from the same mold as Madelyn. Upon closer
inspection, there was also a strong resemblance to Kenneth, especially in the expression between the
eyebrows.
Athena lost her composure...
Kenneth did too.
He looked at that child, his blood froze, he could hardly believe his eyes.
This was the Ryan family's child!
But he was sure, absolutely sure, that Madelyn didn't give birth to him!
Kenneth was in his forties, it's not that he didn't long for a family or having a child, but he was too busy
and reality didn't allow him to think about it!
But now, such a child was right in front of him!
He crouched down in front of Emerson, his voice trembling slightly, "Who is your mother?"
Alexander directly told him, "Eloise's child!"
Kenneth clenched his fists...
Eloise had given birth to his child!
He really wanted to touch his own flesh and blood, but Emerson looked at him with unfamiliar eyes,
actually a little scared...
Kenneth suppressed his emotions and slowly stood up.
Just at that moment, Eloise's car returned, and she stumbled over to pick up Emerson.
Everything... didn't need further explanation.
Athena's mouth opened wide, finally managing to squeeze out a sentence, "This is Kenneth and
Eloise's child?"
She had come to apologize, after all, her son had played with the girl's feelings.
But now, out of nowhere, they suddenly had a grandchild!
The old lady was in her seventies, thinking that she would never get to hold a grandchild in her lifetime.
Suddenly, a beautiful and tender grandchild appeared before her...
She suddenly felt that 18 cars were not enough!
Not sincere enough!
