Capítulo 1956: Chapter 1968: Your and Dylan Wellington’s Daughter Molly Newest update provıded by novel{f}ire.net
Skye Brown has never been one to avoid confrontations in her life—back then, when her family’s mistress caused her mother’s death, Stewart Brown allowed the mistress to take control and bully her.
In front of so many elders, they coerced, bribed, and deceived her into calling the mistress ‘Mom’.
She bit her lip so hard that it bled, yet she didn’t utter a word.
If Skye weren’t so stubborn, perhaps she wouldn’t have suffered so much at the Brown family’s hands back then… Later on, she wouldn’t have been exiled abroad, living as a fringe member of the Browns.
Whenever she encounters anything, she prefers to face it directly.
The only thing she ever avoided in her life was Dylan Wellington.
And the reason for avoiding back then was because it was Skye’s first time feeling moved, the first time she wholeheartedly liked someone.
Initially, she was unwilling to accept Dylan, fearing his flirtatious nature and carefree attitude.
But event after event gradually changed her view of Dylan.
Just when she thought she’d found a man worthy of her unconditional love and trust, Dylan Wellington’s ‘non-marriage stance’ hurt her deeply.
He didn’t betray her.
He didn’t flirt around with others or get involved with other women.
He simply… didn’t want to marry her…
Skye held the phone, listening to the ‘beep… beep…’ sounds, waiting for Lily to answer.
The fragments of her moments with Dylan replayed in her mind.
Skye thought, the only escape she’d ever made was Dylan Wellington, but now… it’s time for her to move forward.
No one’s life consists of eternal avoidance. Last night, when she hung up Lily’s call, hiding in the darkness of this bedroom alone, she felt unbearably lonely and guilty.
She felt guilty towards everyone who cared about her…
She was lonely because she closed her heart, avoided reality, and faced solitude…
‘Avoidance can never resolve problems; it only causes them to multiply.’—That’s what the heroine said in the award-winning indie film she directed in M Country.
Actually, Skye hadn’t realized that, even back then, she was voicing her thoughts through the role in her own directed movie.
“Hello… Skye, you finally turned your phone on!” Lily’s voice with a hint of surprise sounded on the other end of the line.
Skye heard her best friend’s voice, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips: “Mm, sorry Lily… I made you worry.”
She had indeed made Lily worry for a long time.
The longer she was lost and avoided, the more worried her friends became…
“Silly, if I don’t worry about you, who would I worry about…” Lily felt a pang in her nose, for Skye.
Her Skye had indeed been through a lot, from childhood to adulthood, until meeting Dylan—if it weren’t for Molly, she would truly prefer Skye remain blissfully unaware, never having to face separation and pain.
Skye’s smile deepened, feeling a warm stream in her heart.
Her soft almond-shaped eyes became resolute as she stood by the window, looking at the warm sunlight outside, and said softly, “Lily… I’ve figured it out; people can’t avoid things forever. I’m ready now, and I want to move forward—Lily, tell me… what you wanted to say yesterday, I want to hear it…”
“Skye…” Lily’s eyes trembled slightly.
Soon, her gaze also turned resolute.
She’s back… the gentle friend who used to always stand up for her, protecting her, is back…
Her Skye has always been so strong!
“Okay, I’ll tell you, it’s a long story, so let’s take it slowly… starting with your and Dylan Wellington’s daughter, Molly…”
[Update complete, see you at 6:00 tomorrow night~ People say that Skye’s personality is, if she doesn’t want to listen, she won’t. But once she decides to open up, she goes forward courageously. Though Skye is an extra female lead, her personality is different from Lily’s. Hope you can appreciate the different character details.]
