Outside, Lettie cooled off and got Albert a glass of water.
He leaned in and took it with both hands. His humble stance just made Lettie scoff again. You dont have to play this game, Mr.
Waston. ts kind of creepy.
Albert was left speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the light, Lettie face got colder. She said bluntly, | can see you still have a thing for Jessie, but shes moved on, Mr. Waston! Its been ages since she was into you. Yes, you treated her right and all, even spoiled her a bit, but we werent exactly broke. The Greens were loaded back then, and now youre swimming in cash. There are plenty of young girls whod throw themselves at you. You dont need to keep chasing Jessie. Shes got a boyfriend now, and shes into him.
Lettie sighed and added calmly, | wont dig into your past actions.
But as amom, Im asking you to let it be! Those words hit Albert like a dagger, leaving him wounded deep inside.
He totally got where Lettie was coming from. And his heart ached for Jessie.
She mustve had it rough these past years.
But what could Albert even say? He couldnt spill the beans to Lettie about Jessies boyfriend cozying up to the hospital directors daughter as well as maybe he wouldnt choose Jessie in the end.
He didnt want anyone else but Jessie.
Hed already married someone else and let Jessie down. He didnt want to put her through that despair again.
But Lettie didnt buy any of it. She knew Alberts reputation as a player. But that wasnt what ticked her off the most. She was mad that her daughter had put her trust in such a guy.
Albert was ready to take off.

Jessie brought Jeslyn out. The little one had just woken up, resting her head on Alberts shoulder, looking all pitiful.
Ina hushed tone, Albert said, Im taking you home, sweetie.
Jeslyn gazed at Jessie, silent, like a sad little kitten.
Ignoring it as best she could, Jessie went to open the door.
As Albert passed by her, she whispered, Dont come back here.
Albert halted, looking at her. Jeslyns lips quivered, but she didnt say aword. She just buried her face in Alberts neck, staring at Jessie.
Just go, Jessie muttered softly.
