I Hope You Will Never Regret

In the meantime, at the old Martins mansion, Lily brought a young man. He was handsome with a warm smile that brightened his whole face.

Lily looked at her aunt and said, “Auntie, this is my friend, Jamie Rhodes.” Then she turned to Jamie and said, “Jamie, this is my aunt, Elizabeth Parker.”

Jamie took Elizabeth’s hand and kissed her. He smiled and said, “Nice to finally meet you, Miss Elizabeth.” She smiled and replied, “Pleasure is mine, Jamie.”

Then Lily left Jamie with her aunt in the living room and went to her bedroom to change into comfortable clothes.

Elizabeth looked at the young man and asked, “When did you start seeing my niece?” Jamie Rhodes laughed out loud and replied, “It seems there is some misunderstanding, Miss Parker. Lily and I are best friends.

I am not attracted to young girls but mature, stunning ladies like you. Lily didn’t tell me that she was hiding the most beautiful creature in this mansion. You are gorgeous, Miss Parker.”

Elizabeth blushed when a young man praised her. She smiled shyly at him and said, “Stop spouting nonsense, young man. How old are you?”

Jamie flashed Elizabeth a beautiful smile and replied, “I am thirty-five years old and a Civil engineer in one of the big companies. Would you like to grab coffee sometimes, just the two of us?”

Elizabeth’s heart skipped a beat and replied, “That’s a bad idea. I am too old for you. Don’t you think so?” Jamie replied smiling, “Age is just a number, Miss Parker. You need to live your life to the fullest. Allow me to pamper you, beautiful.”

Elizabeth felt an instant spark, an unspoken connection deep in her bones that she had never felt when she was married to August. She felt butterflies in her stomach for the first time.

Before she responded, Jamie’s phone started ringing. He excused himself and went outside to answer the phone. He said, “Hello Lily, what’s up?”

Lily replied, “Jamie, this is not going to work if you push her so hard. Tell her that your mother is in the hospital and then leave after that.” Jamie was not happy because Elizabeth was hooked. He walked back to the living room.

He smiled sheepishly at Elizabeth and said, “I am sorry I have to go to the hospital to visit my mother. I enjoyed meeting you, Miss Parker.” Then he kissed her on both cheeks.

Elizabeth felt warmth spreading through her body. She looked at him in a daze. She had never experienced that feeling before. They exchanged their phone numbers then Jamie reluctantly left.

Elizabeth had a silly smile on her face. She had a feeling that maybe that was the start of something special between her and Jamie.

At that moment, Lily walked into the living room and asked, “Auntie, where is my friend, Jamie?”

Aunt Elizabeth looked at her niece and replied, “He told me that he was going to the hospital to visit his mother.” Lily nodded her head and replied, “I totally forgot that his mother was fighting for his life in the hospital.”

Aunt Elizabeth looked at her niece with concern in her eyes and asked, “What is wrong with Jamie’s mother?” Lily sat on the sofa with a plate of fruit and replied, “Jamie told me that his mother was battling with cancer.

I hope she will pull through because his mother is everything to him. His father passed away when Jamie was three years old, and his mother raised him single-handed.”

Aunt Elizabeth looked at her niece and said, “I think I am in love, Lily. Do you think your friend is too young for me?”

Lily sneered in her heart, but she plastered a fake smile on her face and replied, “No, Auntie. You have a right to live a little. I am behind you a hundred percent. Go for it if he puts a smile on your face. Jamie is a good man.”

Her aunt heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Lily’s words. Her heart was thumping like drums against her chest. She was in love for the first time.

Unbeknownst to her, her beloved niece and handsome Jamie were working together to leave her penniless. Jamie was a womanizer, and he had never worked in his life. He had been taken care of by rich old women.

From that day onwards, Jamie called Elizabeth every day. They spent their quality time in B&Bs to avoid prying eyes. Also, she didn’t want her beloved son to find out about her love life.

A few days later, Caia asked Avery to accompany her to the mall. She wanted to buy her husband a wedding ring.

When Lily saw Avery, she looked at her provocatively and said, “Avery, I don’t have enough words to thank your father for divorcing my aunt. Finally, she had found her happiness.

She is dating a handsome young man, and they love each other so dearly. I hope one day your father will find happiness too.” Unbeknownst to her, her aunt’s ex-husband was married to the beautiful young lady in front of her.

Avery smiled brightly and replied, “Congratulations are in order. Since she has found the love of her life, hopefully, the evilness in her heart will be removed. Lily, are you not scared that her lover would kick you out of the house?”

Lily was disappointed when she saw Avery’s reaction and replied, “To be honest with you, Avery. Everything is under my control. My aunt had shown me that she loved me more than her biological children. I have nothing to fear.”

Lily wished that she had met Aiden instead of Avery because she wanted to sow discord between Aunt Elizabeth and her son, Aiden. She couldn’t wait to see whom her beloved aunt would choose between her son, Aiden, and her lover.

When she didn’t get the reaction, she was looking for from Avery, she scoffed and left them standing. Avery looked at Aunt Caia and laughed out loud.

Lily was annoyed when she heard them laughing. She was disappointed in her aunt when she found her kissing Jamie in the living room.

She looked at them and said annoyingly, “Please go to your bedroom.” Aunt Elizabeth took Jamie’s hand and ran towards the lifts giggling like a teenager.

At the Spencer mansion, Juliet was in the living room absent-minded. Her husband was calling her name, but she didn’t hear him. Her husband hugged her and asked, “What is wrong, my wife?”

Juliet shook her head and replied, “I missed my daughter so much. She hurt us deeply, but she is still our daughter. I never thought that the words that were spoken by Xavier would come true.

Elizabeth took our friendship for granted. We lost our daughter and our business. I am struggling to use my hand because our daughter brought the Bennet family into our lives.”

Her husband sighed and replied, “Elizabeth deceived us all and one day she will pay. This house is no longer the same without our daughter. I was thinking why don’t we ask our daughter to come back home, my wife?”

Juliet smiled brightly and said, “Let’s go now, Hubby.” Then she took her handbag and followed her husband to the garage. She was nervous and happy at the same time.

When they arrived at Tiffany’s rented house, Juliet looked at her husband and asked nervously, “Hubby, what if our daughter refuses to come back home with us?”

Her husband hugged her tightly and replied, “Don’t worry, my wife. Everything is going to be alright.” Then they walked to the house and knocked on the door.

Tiffany opened the door, but she didn’t invite them inside. She looked at them coldly and asked, “What are you doing here?” Her mother smiled and replied, “We miss you, my dearest daughter. Please come back home.”

Tiffany looked at her parents with disdain in her eyes and asked, “Didn’t you disown me when I needed you the most? You are dead to me. Please leave and never show your face in my house again.” Then she slammed the door in their faces.

Mr Spencer and his wife were dumbfounded. Where did they go wrong when they raised their daughter? They were overwhelmed with bitterness. Tears streamed down his wife’s face.

Mr Spencer hugged her waist and walked towards their car with a heavy heart. Juliet cried sorrowfully in her husband’s arms and said, “Hubby, from today onwards we don’t have a daughter. She is dead to me.”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
