Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 205

Chapter205

The other was from a collateral branch of a wealthy family, but without Wilfred’s wealth and power, she didn’t even consider him.

With a pearl before her, how could she settle for a stone?!

Korbin and Yvonne had originally planned to settle Helena’s marriage within a week,

But seeing that Helena was taking care of their granddaughter, they generously postponed the matter for a few more days.

These past few days, Elara started calling Helena again to ask for money,

She said her fiance’s company had gone bankrupt, and fearing she’d be dragged down with him, he wanted to break up.

She asked Helena to lend her ten million, so she could be her fiance’s devoted wife and help him make a comeback.

Helena was so furious she nearly exploded, storming out of the hospital ward building to scold

Elara.

When Belinda woke up and saw Helena wasn’t there, she quietly asked Zoey:

“Is my mom’s birthday coming up soon?”

Zoey asked in return, “Which mom does Belinda mean?”

Belinda pouted in annoyance, “I only have one mom now, Ms. Copeland from EternalCore Fab.

Zoey also pouted, thinking to herself, “If Josephine hadn’t won that honor, you’d still be ignoring her and treating a thief as your mother.”

“It’s in three days.”

Hearing how little time was left, Belinda became anxious, as if an army was at the gates, and said urgently:

“Quick, bring me the tablet, I need to order a gift.”

When Wilfred came in, he saw Belinda intently swiping on the tablet.

The white glow of the screen illuminated her rosy, radiant little face, making her look so healing

and adorable.

He reached out and ruffled Belinda’s fluffy hair. “Little princess, are you buying necklaces for your dolls again?”

Belinda replied without even looking up:

“Of course not, my dolls don’t lack necklaces. Each of them has ten. I’m buying for…”

Belinda suddenly stopped talking.

She had bought each of her dolls ten necklaces, but had never bought one for her mom…

Belinda looked up at Wilfred with her big round eyes: “Daddy, do you still remember Mom’s birthday?”

Wilfred answered confidently, “Of course I remember, it’s in October.”

“Which day in October?”

Wilfred opened his mouth, unsure if it was the 6th, the 10th, or the 18th?

For their anniversaries, it was always Eugene who prepared the gifts in advance and handed them

to him.

He hadn’t paid attention for years, to the point that he couldn’t remember the exact date of Josephine’s birthday.

Wilfred said to Belinda, “Your mom and I are divorced. Her birthday has nothing to do with me.”

After saying that, Wilfred took out his phone from his pocket and scrolled to an old Instagram

post.

He was holding roses and Josephine in the photo, and the Instagram caption read:

“This is my girlfriend and the flowers she loves. Her birthday is October 8th.”

That post was set to be visible to himself only.

Josephine had asked him to do that.

She said love wasn’t a performance, there was no need for everyone to know…

Wilfred put away his phone and said to Zoey, “Take good care of Belinda. I won’t be coming tonight.”

Helena stepped out of the elevator just in time to see Wilfred entering another one.

She called out. “Fred.”

Wilfred seemed not to hear her. The elevator doors closed tightly and went straight to the underground parking lot.

It wasn’t until Wilfred drove out of the hospital that he realized he was being foolish again.

Was he really thinking of buying Josephine a gift?

Had he forgotten how she knocked over his gardenias?

Had he forgotten how he tried to help her, only to be pushed away?

Had he forgotten how she made a fool of him at work?

Wilfred irritably picked up his pack of cigarettes, bit one, and lit it with one hand.

Eugene’s call came through.

“Mr. Hayden, the head of the paternity testing agency wants to ask you for the remaining payment. This money can’t go through the company account, or Sir Hayden will find out…”

Wilfred exhaled a smoke ring, his brows furrowed as he said:

“Transfer it from my personal account. Warn him to keep his mouth shut, or we’ll have unnecessary trouble.”

After hanging up, Wilfred fell into a certain memory.

There was something–he never meant to hurt Josephine, but the one he owed the most was also Josephine.

***

At that time, Josephine was making preparations to send Gideon and his family of three abroad.

Gideon had already broken up with Elara.

But Elara absolutely refused to accept it.

She said that this was the first time in her life a man had treated her as a woman, not as a whore.

And this man was young, impressive, and healthy.
