“No,” the man's expression darkened and his gaze drifted away slowly. "Serena, as you call her, is my wife.""Why didn't you recognize Serena then?" The little girl hesitated for a moment before asking with confusionElliot let out a silent sigh and slowly told Leah what had happened between him and Rose.
"My wife and I were deeply in love, but one day she misunderstood me. When I chased after her to explain things, she was hit by a car and fell intothe river. She couldn't be found anymore."
Leah furrowed her eyebrows slightly and asked again. “What happened later?"
"I thought she was really dead,” Elliot pursed his lips together tightly before answering softly after a long pause. "But one day, she suddenly appearedin front of me again.”
"Even though her appearance had changed, I was sure that she was my wife.”Leah's eyes flickered slightly with excitement that couldn't be contained inside.The man's confident tone made her certain that he still loved her mommy despite everything.
Did this mean they still had a chance to reconcile? Although Leah hoped so deep down inside of herself, she wasn't entirely sure about it. Afterpondering for a moment longer, she tentatively asked him. "Do you still love her?"
Elliot's eyes darkened as he tightened his grip on the steering wheel slightly. He should have forgotten about this woman who betrayed himcompletely: however, when he found out that she was alive all along - there was only one thing on his mind - to keep this woman bound by his sideforevermore.
He wouldn't let Rose disappear from his world ever again!
Thinking like this within himself made Elliot answer without hesitation, "I won't let my wife leave me again."
Leah's eyes lit up as she heard this. Excellent, now she and her scumbag dad had a common goal.
"I feel like Serena has a soft heart: why don't you try coaxing or cajoling her?"
Elliot froze for a moment before looking at the little girl sitting next to him with incomprehension written all over face"“Coaxing?”
The little girl nodded eagerly before proudly stating, "Yes, If you coax Serena then maybe Serena will stay by your side!"
Half an hour later... Elliot appeared alongside Leah in Rose's hospital room
Rose who sat on the bed lost in thought saw them come through doorways causing surprise etched across her features...
Leah appeared here? Shouldn't she be safe with Sean at Valentin’s house right now?
As soon as Leah walked into the hospital room, she noticed her mom's expression and immediately spoke up.
"Serena, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?”
“Uncle Elliot said you were injured, I was worried about you so I came with Uncle Elliot.”
.. She knew that with Leah’s personality, she would never stay put.
Rose sighed helplessly in her heart and forced a smile on her face. "You don't have to worry, I'm fine now."
The little girl nodded obediently and sat down by the bed.novelbin
Rose gently touched the broken hair on the little girl's head and looked back at Elliot standing by the door. Her eyes turned cold.
She pursed her lips and said coldly, “Elliot, I want to leave the hospital.

Rose stared mockingly at him like she heard a big joke and asked sarcastically, "Go whose home? Yours or Madeleine's?"
When she found out that Elliot had a child with Madeleine years ago, Rose felt hopeless which led her to think of giving up on her life.
But now this man who betrayed her dared say that place was their home; it was ridiculous!
Elliot felt Rose's resistance but insisted stubbornly, "You are my wife; that is our home."
No one else.
His wife could only be her.
The little girl sitting by the bedside listened to her dad's answer and couldn't help but hold onto her forehead. Why did she have such an idiotic dad?No wonder Mom left. Who could stand such a big macho man? Staying would be like waiting to be driven crazy.
Just as Leah wanted to say something to ease the tension again, Rose's mocking voice sounded once more, making everyone feel like they were inan icebox.
"Elliot, we're not husband and wife anymore."Rose glared at the man in front of her with a cold tone.It was clearly him who told Madeleine give me divorce papers years ago. Now he has the nerve calling me his wife..
