Chapter 91 Making Things Clear
When my mother came in, I was staring blankly at the ceiling. She put the cooked pumpkin porridge
aside, looked around my bedroom, and asked, “Where’s Walter? Has he gone home?”
I shook my head, feeling uncomfortable with the emptiness in my stomach. I sat up and nestled in the
armchair, sipping the porridge my mother had cooked.
Watching me eat porridge, my mother seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
I looked at her and said, “Mom, just say what you want to say, otherwise it’s uncomfortable to hold it
in.”
She paused, then said, “After Ashley returned from the old house, he has been smashing things in his
room. Just now, Alexander said that Walter went over, is that right?”
I nodded, knowing that my mother was aware of everything she needed to know. There was nothing I
needed to hide from her.
The frown on her brow was somewhat tight.
With a livid face, she suppressed her anger and looked at me, saying, “Today at the Hinton family, I
thought I had misunderstood Walter and Ashley before, but I didn’t expect…” She took a breath,
abruptly stood up, and then left the bedroom.
For a moment, I didn’t realize that my mother had suddenly gone out.
For a moment, there came a “knock knock knock!” from outside the door.

It came from next door.
Ashley’s room.
Realizing what my mother was about to do, I quickly put down the bowl and ran out.
But it was too late, by the time I left, Ashley’s room door had already been pushed open, and mother
had entered Ashley’s room.
Feared something would go wrong.
I hurriedly followed in, only to see Ashley’s room in a complete mess. The floor was littered with broken
glass and overturned tables, chairs, and benches. Cosmetics were scattered everywhere. Anything that
could be smashed was smashed, and everything else was in a chaotic mess all over the floor.
The vanity mirror by Ashley’s bed was shattered to pieces.
Looking at Ashley again, she was wearing a thin white nightgown, her fair and delicate feet bare.
Perhaps she had stepped on a piece of debris. in her emotional agitation, there was a pool of blood
next to her foot, and her fair foot had already been bandaged.
It seemed that it was Walter who had helped her just now.
Walter squatted down beside her, his face somewhat gloomy and his eyebrows furrowed in worry, the
creases forming a character that spoke volumes of his heartache.
The sudden appearance of my mother and me made the two of them look at us in perfect unison.
Upon seeing us, Ashley put on a pretentious act and subtly moved -away from Walter. What’s that
saying again? The more your explain,
the more you conceal.

Her action at that moment really well interpreted this sentence.
“Mom, Tabatha…” Ashley began in a soft voice, looking so pitiful and cautious, as if my mother and I
had mistreated her.
Mother was a person who couldn’t control her temper. She pursed her lips and said to her, “What a
pretentious act!”
This remark made Walter frown slightly. He stood up from Ashley’s side, looking so dignified that it was
almost unbecoming. He looked at his mother and said, “Ashley is hurt.”
His words seemed like he was stating a fact, but also like he was reminding his mother not to be so
harsh on a wounded person.
Mother pursed her lips, her voice steady, “If you’re injured, call a doctor or go to the hospital, Walter.
You’re Tabatha’s husband. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate to be going in and out of Ashley’s room like
this?”
This was said bluntly, but it was also extremely embarrassing.
Walter’s face darkened slightly, but after all, he was from the Hinton. family. In just a moment, he
composed himself and said to his mother, “I was the one who handled things improperly, I
overstepped.”
Mother didn’t want to be too harsh on him. After taking a slight breath, her face softened a bit. She
didn’t plan to make a big fuss about it. Looking at me, she said, “Tabatha, you and Walter should stay
at Water Villa. There are too many people here, and you’re a light sleeper, you won’t sleep well at This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
night.”
Clearly, mother was planning to separate us.
Things had come to this point, I always felt that if I continued to
hesitate like this, it seemed to be of no benefit.
After taking a slight breath, he looked at his mother and said, “Mom, this is my issue, let me handle it.”
My mother paused, frowning at me. Seeing her, I smiled, revealing a somewhat comforting smile.
Upon seeing this, she still said, “You guys go out first, I have somet words to say with Ashley.”
After what my mother had said, I didn’t feel it was right to say much more. I glanced at the delicate and
lovely Ashley before leaving the bedroom.
He closed the door on his way out.
In the Conner family’s backyard, the late autumn wind blew, making people feel a bit cold.
I couldn’t help but tighten my coat.
There was an extra coat on me, it was Walter’s, I pushed it away.
Looking at his handsome face, I felt much calmer at that moment, and said with a smile, “It seems that
it was here that I first learned about your feelings for Ashley.”
His gaze slightly deepened, as if he knew what I wanted. He looked at me and said, “About what just
happened…”
“Let me finish,” I interrupted him, continuing, “Walter, you’re so outstanding, it’s understandable that
you have one or two unforgettable people in your heart. But what surprises me is that one of them
would be Ashley. Honestly, when I first saw you two embracing here, my mind was buzzing. My sister
and my husband, such a thing is really upsetting.”
