Chapter 185
“Mr. Parker, do you really want to throw away all of Mrs. Parker’s things?” Rita asked with a sob.
She was really angry when Joanna said those things. However, she could only endure it. Yet, she did not believe Hayden would consent to this decision.
Although Hayden and Yvonne have rarely been close in the past, they were married after all.
Rita had seen Hayden’s sadness during this time.
She firmly believed that Hayden was not completely devoid of feelings for Yvonne.
However, just as Rita thought this. Hayden lightly opened his thin lips, “Throw it all away.
These words stunned Rita.
She widened her eyes in disbelief, “Mr. Parker! Do you really want to discard all of Mrs. Parker’s things? She…”
“Pack up her things tomorrow. Hayden’s weary voice sounded again, with a hint of majesty.
Rita froze in place, not daring to say another word.
After all, Hayden was her employer.
Even if she wanted to stand up for Yvonne, she wouldn’t dare to refute Hayden.
After a long time, she sighed softly, “Yes,”
She thought. Perhaps, this is the best ending for Mrs. Parker.
She can leave this heartless place completely, not to have any more attachment, and to meet someone who truly loves her and cherishes her life in another life.
With emotion in her heart, Rita turned and retreated.
Soon only Hayden was left in the huge bedroom.
Boundless deathly silence surged towards him, easily drowning his thoughts.
His slender fingertips reached into the quilt, but all he felt was a piercing coldness.
He felt that this place was not peaceful anymore, so he wanted to place Yvonne’s belongings somewhere else.
“Yvonne, don’t blame me. His thin lips lifted slightly, and his voice was choked with sobs.
It had been half a month since her leaving, yet he still couldn’t get out of the intense grief.
He couldn’t help but take out his cell phone and start playing the video of her playing the piano.
The gentle notes, which once awakened him from his coma, now brought him endless remorse and grief. The next day, the servants of Rosy House cleaned up all the things Yvonne had used before her death. Somehow the news got out, and Elysiumville was awash in rumors.
A person said, “Men can be so heartless. Hayden is trying to erase all traces of his ex–wife so soon?”
Another person said, “When I saw him on the cruise, refusing to eat or drink for three days for Yvonne, I thought their love ran deep!”

Chapter 185
A third said, “I bet it was all an act! How can you believe anything a man says?”
Someone else said. “Poor Yvonne. She fell for the wrong guy!”
In the cafe, a group of teens at a table chuckled while browsing through trending topics on their phones.
Dylan came over with three cups of coffee and a chestnut cupcake.
He said, ‘Cappuccino for you, Yvonne.
Thank you” I took the coffee, my expression unchanged.
Ebenezer, who was sitting next to me, also heard the chirping from the next table and looked at me with some curiosity. “You… don’t have a reaction?”
“What kind of reaction do you expect me to have?” I asked with a smile before taking a sip of coffee.
Ebenezer took the coffee that Dylan handed over and frowned slightly in confusion. “You were in a hurry to come back, but now that you are back, you have calmed down. You are not even in a hurry to see Marlon. It’s really confusing…. Now listening to others discussing your business, you are so calm.”
“They are all telling the truth, and I have nothing to argue with. As for Marlon… didn’t he say we’ll see each other later?” I smiled faintly and pressed down the brim of my baseball cap, covering most of my face.
I was still wearing a mask when I came back, and I only took it off now to eat.
Dylan put the chestnut cake in front of me. “Yvonne, didn’t you say you wanted something sweet? Try this. The clerk said it’s the best seller today.”
“Okay.” I nodded.
I didn’t like sweets very much before, but my taste had changed recently.
Maybe it was because life had been too bitter, so I started to crave sweetness
Ebenezer, who was sitting opposite me, began to fall silent.
He probably felt bored talking to me.
Dylan saw that I had eaten a few bites and seemed to have a good appetite, a smile finally appeared on his face. “It seems that this taste suits your appetite. How about buying another one when we leave later?”
“No need. How about we find a restaurant to eat later?” I suggested.
“Okay!” He nodded happily.
He never seemed discouraged in front of me.
Seeing our relaxed conversation, Ebenezer pinched the space between his eyebrows helplessly. “You guys are still in the mood to discuss food?”
He felt that we didn’t look like we had come back for revenge.
“You have strength only when you have a full stomach. I smiled.
I was not alone anymore, and I had to consider the child in my womb.
Hayden didn’t matter to me anymore.
It didn’t matter to me anymore who he married or if he threw away all my belongings.

Dylan understood what I was thinking and said, “Yes, some things can’t be rushed.”
We looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
Ebenezer didn’t say anything else. Maybe he thought we were weirdos.
Mfter a few more bites, I sighed, “Dylan, I’m so sorry. Because of me, you couldn’t see your family and tell them you’re safe.”
Dylan jumped into the sea with me. If he went back, everyone would think I was still alive.
Even though Dylan could emphasize that he didn’t find me, he refused and insisted on staying with me.
“It’s okay, I’ll find a chance to ask for their forgiveness later, Dylan said, his eyelids drooping slightly.
I knew he just didn’t want me to worry. After all, he must care about his family a lot.
While we were chatting. Ebenezer’s phone rang.
He picked it up and said a few words, then looked at me with a serious expression. “It’s Marlon. He said we can meet tonight.”
“It’s Marlon. He said we can meet tonight!
“Much faster than I imagined.” My eyes narrowed slightly, as if I had guessed what was holding Marlon back.
In Elysiumville, the only thing that could restrict his freedom was the Parker family,
I thought, “Isn’t Hayden getting remarried!
He shouldn’t be concerned about anything I do.
‘Or is he just spying on Marlon
