Chapter 357 My Father
“Yuliana!”
Jacob opened the door and saw Yuliana and his nephew standing outside the door. His eyes lit up, could not help but
smile.
He turned around and shouted to the room, “Mom, Rowan and Yuliana are here.”
and he
Jacob was around 15 years old. It was the time that his body grew. The last time he saw Yuliana was during All
Souls’ Day. In just a few months, Jacob seemed to have grown taller than her.
His features had also matured, and he looked increasingly like his father, Damian.
However, he was as gentle and polite as Sabrina.
“Aunt Sabrina, are you busy?”
Yuliana held on to Rowan and walked into the house.
+
Rowan did not have many chances to interact with Jacob, so he was not close to the latter. He had stayed in
Jeahron for a while, so he was closer to Aaron.
While facing Jacob, Rowan was a little restrained.
Jacob said, “My mom is preparing food.”
Sabrina had always been like that. Before Jacob’s father’s accident and Yuliana still went home, Sabrina would
specially prepare more dishes that the latter liked, for fear of neglecting her. However, on the contrary, it made
Yuliana feel that she was not a member of the family but a guest in that house.
Of course, she knew that Sabrina’s intentions were not malicious.
It was just that feelings were subjective. Sabrina felt that such behavior was expressing her good feelings for
Yuliana and showing that she valued the latter, but Yuliana felt uncomfortable.
Presently, Yuliana no longer felt that way. She just felt that it was too troublesome for Sabrina.
“Yuliana, you are here!”
Sabrina came out of the kitchen with a smile on her face and an apron around her waist.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe and Callie were two completely different women. She was not as beautiful, not as powerful, and not as
ambitious as Callie. Sabrina felt that she only needed to be a good wife and mother.
Most of the time, people were captivated by brilliant and dazzling women like Callie, but they often ignored Sabrina
and treated her like an ordinary woman.
In the past, even Yuliana could not figure out why Damian had married Sabrina.
After Damian had died, she gradually understood it.
“Aunt Sabrina.”
Yuliana called out to Sabrina, handed over the things in her hand, and said, “I just came back from a business trip to
Romdale. I bought some local specialties and brought some for you and Jake.”
Sabrina took the things and put them on the shelf. Then, she took candles from the shelf and said, “Go and light
candles in memory of your father.”
Yuliana nodded and took Rowan to Damian’s memorial plaque to light a candle.
Rowan did not understand her actions, but he obeyed Yuliana’s order.
After Yuliana had lit the candle, Sabrina washed some fruits and said, “You must be tired after driving for so many
hours. Take a rest with Rowan, and dinner will be ready soon.”
Yuliana had driven for more than three hours from Juxshire
Her body, especially her shoulders, neck, and ankles, did feel rather tired.
She sat on the sofa and asked about Jacob’s study situation while resting. After all, he had been abroad for several
years, and there was still a big difference between what was taught locally and abroad. She wondered if he could
keep up with the schooling pace.
Jacob said, “It was a little hard at first, but it doesn’t matter. Don’t worry, Yuliana. I will study hard.”
Yuliana replied, “If you have any difficulties, you can tell me.”
Originally, she had planned to let Jacob attend school in Juxshire. The educational resources there would be better
than that in Yrinas.
However, Sabrina refused.
Yuliana knew that Sabrina did not want to trouble her.
Jacob nodded and chatted with Yuliana for a while. Then, he went to the kitchen to help Sabrina.
Sabrina cooked seven or eight dishes that Yuliana and Rowan loved.
Sabrina did not have much money in her hands, but she had a good educational background. Before she married
Damian, she had had enough work experience. She got an administrative job, worked on weekdays from nine to
six, and earned 750 to 900 dollars a month. Furthermore, she had some savings from before, so it was enough.
After dinner, Jacob took Rowan out to play in the yard.
Sabrina made a pot of tea and sat in the living room with Yuliana.
“Yuliana, has there been any progress made in the matter regarding your father?” Sabrina asked carefully. Yuliana
was silent for two seconds before she comforted Sabrina, “Aunt Sabrina, don’t worry.”
Upon hearing that, Sabrina’s face darkened immediately.
It had been a whole year, and no progress had been made. A man had died in a cold hospital without his family
next to him.
Upon thinking of that, Sabrina felt uncomfortable.
At that time, if it weren’t for her son’s safety, she would not have left Damian and taken Jacob abroad. However,
she had thought, “Damian is in prison. As long as his prison sentence ends, we can always be reunited.”
She had never thought that it would be the last time they met.
Sabrina’s eyes became sore. She held her face with both hands and covered the tears that welled up in her eyes.
Upon seeing that Sabrina was only about 40 years old and her hair had turned half-white, Yuliana could not help but
sympathize with Sabrina.
Sabrina was more than ten years younger than Callie, but Sabrina looked older than Callie.
Yuliana could not bear it and comforted her. “Aunt Sabrina, do you know Caleb?”
Sabrina adjusted her emotions and said in a slightly astringent voice, “Yes.”
Yuliana said, “I have some contact with him through my mother, but I don’t know if he can be trusted, so I can’t
give him the evidence for the time being.”
The evidence had been left by Damian.
It was left in a safety deposit box, and the password was Yuliana’s birthday.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn addition to that evidence, a letter was left to Yuliana and Sabrina.
Damian had expected that he would go to prison, but if he had the evidence, he should be able to get out of prison
safely. However, in case Sabrina and Yuliana would be involved, he had made arrangements in advance and sent
them abroad.
Furthermore, those two letters were also an added precaution. Just in case something happened to him in prison,
they could use the evidence.
However, Damian felt rather conflicted.
On one hand, he wanted them to do something with the evidence, and on the other, he was worried that it would
be dangerous for them to get involved.
Therefore, the letter did not clearly tell them what to do.
Yuliana said, “Aunt Sabrina, we just have to wait a while more.”
Sabrina nodded and said apologetically, “Yuliana, I’m sorry. Jake and I can’t help you with your father’s
matter, so I have to rely on you.”
Yuliana glanced at Damian’s memorial plaque and said in a calm tone, “Aunt Sabrina, he is my father.”
Her feelings for Damian were complicated.
When he divorced Callie, she resented him. When he chose to marry Sabrina, she hated him. Later, after he was
sentenced to prison for committing a crime, she felt ashamed of him and even thought that it would have been
good if he were not her father.
However, later, when she learned that he was injured and sick in prison, she still could not ignore him.
When she learned that he had died…
Yuliana stayed in Yrinas for two days with her son. Then, she drove back to Juxshire on a Sunday afternoon. When
they got home, they saw an uninvited guest.
“Yuliana, a lady with the surname ‘Moss’ is here. She said that she’s looking for you.”
Yuliana was stunned and said, “How long has she been waiting here?”
Hailey said, “It has been a few hours. I told her that she should leave since you weren’t home. She said that she
would wait for you to come back.”
