Summer Frost POV

“Are you sure you don’t want me to come with you, ma’am?” Miguel asked for the umpteenth time as he pulled over at the parking lot of the hospital.

“You don’t have to. I’ll be back shortly,” I finally stepped out of the car after I wore my facecap and sunglass to conceal my identity. Getting involved with a reporter here was the last thing I wanted.

knew my way around, hence, I took the elevator there and proceeded to the ward where Mrs Hughes was,

is this worth it? I stopped along the walkway and asked myself the question I’ve been asking ever since I left the house. I had no reason to go see her, but somehow, it felt like I really had a reason to. I knew asking her why she did that to me won’t change anything, but regardless, I still wanted to know.

And there she was, sitting on the bed and staring into space like she was lost in thought

For the next two minutes, I stood in front of the ward and stared at the woman who ruined my life. The woman I did everything to please back then, the same woman who constantly reminded me that I was a nobody. Maybe if I was careful enough, I would’ve known from the onset that she did all that.

“It’s been a while, Mrs Hughes,” I finally walked inside the ward majestically, and she turned to me almost immediately. She had a shocked expression on her face.

“Summer?” She called my name probably to be sure it was really me and not someone else.

“You look like you are getting better. I’m glad,” I pulled out a chair and sat beside the bed where she was seated.

An awkward silence crept in, with her looking everywhere except my

face.

All I wanted was a mom in her. Since I grew up without parents, I was hoping she’d be the mom i never had, but that was the most thing I ever asked for. I asked for too much.

“I saw the news… I’m happy for you. Congratulations,” She finally looked at me, her eyes were filled with tears as they looked into mine.

“Did you hate me that much, Mom?” She didn’t deserve that name from me, but that was what I used to call her years ago because I considered her my

Mom

“Did you have to do that to me? Did you have to ruin my marriage with Xander because you hated and could not stand me? My heart wrenched painfully as I held my tears back. Crying in front of her again was the last thing I would do.

“I’m sorry,” A drop of tears slid down her cheek as she slowly shook her head.

“I’m really sorry, Summer… I’m so sorry,” She whimpered as she held her gaze low in shame because it was written all over her, but the only question ! asked myself was if she would still be like this had it been I was not successful. Would she have still feel sorry and not stand by her decision years ago if I was still a nobody?

“What are you sorry for, Mom? What exactly are you sorry for?”

“I’m sorry for everything…I’m sorry for the way I treated you… I should’ve done better… I should’ve worked on myself it’s all my fault,” She cried out, and I scoffed.

“Why are you sorry now? Because you read the news and realized that I’m not the same person I used to

Chapter 61

“I would’ve still been like this even if you were still the same person… I was wrong… I should never have treated you that way… Seeing my son being miserable over the years made me feel guilty each day that passed by

“Is this how every parents out there are? is this how every Mom would ruin their children’s marriage because they don’t like their children’s partner?” i had to ask because I was curious to know though I knew not everyone were like that.

She held her gaze low and fondled with her fingers as she whimpered silently,

“All I wanted was a Mom I never had… I just wanted to be a daughter to someone. Don’t you think poor people deserve love and happiness too?” I could not hold back my tears anymore, sot let them allout.

“It was obvious that I really loved your son, right? You knew deep inside you that I was madly in love with Xander and it was not because of his money…. tried to prove to you several times that it was true love I had for him even though I didn’t have to… Would you have treated me that way if I was from a wealthy home?”

“Summer

“You know you could’ve done something else and not make me look like a cheat to your son, right? You knew it was the only thing you could use to separate us knowing how Xander would be if you did that… You had it all planned out,”

“I’m sorry.” Was the only thing she kept saying as she shed more tears.

“I’ve lost everyone… My children no longer come to see me, they all hate me now… My husband-

“And you think I care about that? Don’t you think you really deserve that?” I cut her off, and she slowly nodded.

“I deserve every treatment I’m getting from them…” She shook her head as she buried her face between her palms.

*I’m sorry, Summer… I’m really sorry, If only I can turn back the hands of time, I would do better… I really regret everything now… I swear on my life, I really do,” She whimpered.

“I really want to make things right this time… Please give me a chance to—

“I didn’t come to listen to your stories…” I stood up and sighed.

*Have a great day, and I wish you a quick recovery.” And with that, I turned to leave.

“Xander told me you had kids all by yourself…” I stopped abruptly and slowly clenched my fingers tightly around the handle of my handbag.

“I really wish to make it up to you even if it’s the last thing I have to do,” The sincerity in her voice was undeniable. I wanted to doubt if she was really sorry, but deep inside me, I knew she was though I didn’t know if she would’ve been the same way if I was a nobody. I’ve only lived with her for years, but she was this person who would never hide under the guise of anything when she hates you. She never hid her hatred for anyone, and whenever she said. she was sorry, then she really was.

I walked out of the ward silently without sparing her another glance.

It’s crazy how I felt pity for her after everything she had done to me. It’s crazy how seeing her in tears broke my heart, but I guess when you love someone, you tend to love everything related to the person. That is what true love is.

“It’s not worth it, Summer… She’s not worth your pity,” I finally proceeded to the elevator.

My phone vibrated in my handbag as soon as I stepped inside the elevator, so I brought it out and hesitated when I saw it was a call from Dad. Do I have a choice? Well, I had to answer it.

“Yes, Dad?”

“We are having dinner with Hunter’s family tomorrow. Hunter will come over to pick you up along with the kids,” His cold voice sounded from the other end, and I swallowed a breath.

“Are you there?” Came his voice again, and I released the breath I’d been holding.

“Yes, Dad. Alright. I will keep that in mind,” The call ended immediately, and I breathed out…
