A Moment in Destiny

“Ah, Winnie, are you not staying at home?” Tim was extremely worried.

Winnie gave a little smile, looking calm. “Yes grandpa, let brother, Esther, and Iris keep you company these days. I am really busy, but I will come back often to visit! Don’t worry, grandpa!”

She had a tranquil smile on her lips. However, even though she was smiling, sadness hung on her lips.

She never thought that Hudson would be coming today. She didn’t want to have anything to do with him. She felt the pain deep in her bones, and even though it’s been years since what happened, there were still painful aftereffects. Every pain felt especially torturing. She was finally feeling numb about it, hence she didn’t want to feel any kind of strong pain anymore. If she felt more pain, she might even die from it.

Hudson looked at Winnie with a mixture of emotions, his gaze rested on her face for a few seconds, and said, “Regarding what you mentioned about the procedure, I’ll promise you that. Once you’ve had enough rest, you can go handle it!”

If she really already had a boyfriend, then it’s time for him to let go of her. He couldn’t hurt her anymore. Because of him, this girl had already been hurt tremendously.

“What procedure?” Esther was surprised and glanced worriedly at the two of them. “You guys already met before this?”

Winnie’s brain throbbed. Looking at him, she didn’t answer Esther’s question. She then nodded her head and said, “Alright!”

“Grandpa, Esther, I’m a little tired today, so I’ll not be eating. You guys go ahead, I’ll head back first, I’ll visit another time!” He said slowly, turning his gaze towards Winnie. Winnie, on the other hand, turned her gaze away, not wanting to look at him.

His eyes sparkled and his lips quivered as if wanting to say something. But the words stopped short in his throat. He swallowed, pursed his lips tightly, and swallowed his words.

“Hudson, what will you be eating back home, why not eat here before going back?” Esther asked hurriedly. She knew Hudson had something to say to Winnie, but it was obvious Winnie didn’t want to talk to him now.

About what happened four years ago, Ethel had told her about it before, she understood how Winnie felt. Winnie was hurt too deep, and she was the one who was the main culprit of their breakup. Because of this, she had to help them get back together.

“Esther, I’m alright, I’ll head back to sleep first!” Hudson left, but before he left, he took another final look at Esther. Some words were still left unsaid.

“Winnie, aren’t you sending Hudson off?!” Esther pulled at Winnie’s hands hurriedly.

Startled, Winnie shook her head.

However, looking at him who was turning around to leave, and when he walked out from that door, her heart was in knots, as if she was about to suffocate. She was extremely upset.

“Oh dear, I’ll talk to you later, I’ll go take a look at Hudson!” Esther stomped and ran out.

Winnie frowned and suppressed her sadness, her eyes glistening with tears. She lowered her head, and her tears suddenly trickled down. He had never loved her before, that was clear!

Looking at his granddaughter, Tim gave a long sigh and turned to look at Rio. That fellow was brought back by his granddaughter, but what’s the meaning of all this? He was a Caucasian, and he had no good feelings about Caucasians. It felt that they were a different species. But looking at his granddaughter now, it was obvious that she still cared about Hudson. How did it come to this situation? He realized that four years later today, Hudson was looking at Winnie with a different gaze in his eyes! He was starting to feel something for Winnie, but… Alas…
