Chapter 50
Emily's POV
When I got the call from Andre, I was packing up my clothes and household items. I wasn't in the kitchen cooking, I had lied to Andre.
I had already seen the news on the internet and probably knew about it before Andre did. I couldn't sleep early this morning, so I picked up my phone and saw the tweets on the website.
I know that the employees of the company's PR department work on a 24-hour alternating basis, to prevent bad rumors about the company from appearing on the Internet.
I waited for an hour, but not a single call came to Andre's phone. I guess Andre knew about it and told his staff to ignore the news because it was true.
There was no way I could stay with Andre any longer. I pretended I hadn't seen the news to appease him, but I believed the news more than anyone.
Andre will remarry Kelly, even if they don't love each other, they will become each other's partner again for Kate's sake. I don't want to wait until that day to feel the pain of being kicked out of my home again.
I didn't want to blame Andre, so I chose to leave, even though I was in a lot of pain and sadness. But I had to do it.
"Miss Jones, Miss Simon is here to visit you."
The sound of the maid knocking on the door pulled me back to my thoughts, and I felt strange that Kelly should be with Andre by now. Why would she come to see me?
I came into the living room and saw a woman in a red dress sitting on the sofa directing the maid to pour her tea as if she was the mistress of the villa.
I frowned, looking at Kelly's face with a very natural expression inside feeling very unhappy. Andre did not tell me to leave, which proves that Kelly and he have no intention of getting married, and this villa has nothing to do with Kelly!
She has no right to be the one in charge here!
"Miss Simon, if you're here to see Kate please go back, she's still in class."
I'm not in the mood to talk to Kelly, all I have to do is see her and I'm reminded of the images I saw outside the restaurant yesterday and the news on the internet.
Although she had been married to Andre, they had separated long ago and I was Andre's current partner; Kelly was no different in my eyes from a third party who had inserted herself into someone else's relationship.
The maids saw me coming down and all exited the living room, and Kelly had no one to boss around before she looked up at me, her eyes full of contempt and disdain for me.
"Of course, I know Kate is in school, she's my daughter, how could I not know where she is? I'm here to see you today, Miss Jones. I want you to break up with Andre immediately, the two of us will be getting married soon, and you have no business being around her as a substitute."
My hands dropped to my side and clenched into fists, Kelly's words were like knives to my fragile heart, causing me great pain.
Even though I also already knew that it was irrevocable, I didn't want to let Kelly get so carried away.
"I don't think you're dreaming, Ms. Simon. Andre has never mentioned this in front of me, and I haven't even heard anything about you from his close friends or parents in all the time I've been dating him. Just now, Andre even called to tell me not to believe the news on the internet that he would never remarry you!"
I took a deep breath and looked at Kelly as she kept suppressing the anger inside me. Everyone was telling me that I was Kelly's replacement, but I didn't see it that way, I didn't bear the slightest resemblance to Kelly in either personality or looks!
I noticed Kelly's body tremble a little after I said this, perhaps in anger because of my words.
"Miss Jones, I am Kate's real mother, and Andre and I are the families. You're just the replacement Andre was looking for after I left, and Andre didn't tell you because he wanted you to leave on your own, how could he have time for something as trivial as you when he was so busy."
Kelly looked at me and smiled as if she remembered something. I should feel lucky that none of the servants were in the living room right now, or I would have been able to see the mocking looks they were giving me.
It's too bad, I guess I should be the child abandoned by luck, fate always destroys all my hopes when I feel happy.
"How can someone like you be qualified to be Kate's mother? Andre and I are now a couple, and you're a third party for getting involved in our relationship! Even if Andre and I were to separate, he should be the one to tell me personally, not let you, a third party, educate me! You are not qualified to say these words in front of me!"
"Emily, I know about you, you are just an illegitimate daughter, a lowly person like you is not worthy to be Andre's wife at all! Only I am the most suitable person to be with Andre, you'd better leave the villa quickly!"
It had been a long time since I had heard anyone tell me that I was an illegitimate daughter, and Jane and Wilson had accepted me, and if Kelly hadn't returned, Andre and I would have been discussing an engagement.
"I remember that Miss Simon's background is not noble either, otherwise Andre's parents would not have agreed to divorce the two of you!"
Kelly couldn't refute me because of my remark, and I think Jane didn't like her or even hated her. Because I had never heard anything about Kelly from Jane, she even forbade any maid to mention her mother in front of Kate.
I looked at Kelly's angry back as she left, and I didn't feel happy inside. I knew that what she had said before was true, and even though Jane might not like her, Andre was going to remarry her, and there was nothing Jane could do to stop it, just as there was nothing she could do to stop Andre and me from becoming partners.
I sighed and just felt a weariness in my heart that I had never felt before. I've only been with two boyfriends, Dylan and Andre, and each of them chose to cheat on me.
I feel like I'm on the verge of losing the right to have love now, after all, no one should have such a poor vision as I do.
"Emily, can you come to the hospital today? I have too much stuff and I think I might need you to move to the new house a little early."
I went back upstairs to pack my clothes and prepare to move out of Andre's villa tonight. a call came out of the blue from Hellen, who was now completely recovered and would be released in a few days.
Andre and I had planned for her to move right in with us, but Hellen refused to do so, and her attitude was so strong that she did not want to live with us.
Andre and I were unable to change her mind, so Andre finally offered to buy Hellen an apartment and let her live alone.
By the time I found out about this, Andre had already gotten his papers and I had to agree to the offer. Now that I think about it again, I suddenly feel lucky that Hellen didn't move into Andre's villa.
As for the cost of the house, I would try to pay Andre back later, but the biggest problem I had now was that I didn't know how to tell Hellen that I was breaking up with Andre.
I walked into the park next to the villa, which was not far from the hospital, so I planned to walk to the hospital. This gave me time to think about how to explain my feelings to Hellen.
By the time I realized something was wrong, it was too late. All I felt was a blow to my head with an object, and then I lost consciousness!
