Chapter 1182 Having a Conversation With Ellen
Who wouldn't regret marrying such a scumbag? However, he did not expect his mother to
say, "No, I don't."
Frowning, he asked in disbelief, "You don't?"
Ellen gently shook her head and explained slowly, "Although he has never felt anything for
me and even framed me in order to get a divorce, trapping me in a wheelchair for many
years, I still don't regret marrying him. If I hadn't married him, I wouldn't have had you
and Brian."
Hearing that, Eugene choked up as tears suddenly started gathering in his eyes. He pulled
her into his arms, feeling a pang in his heart. "Mom…"
Having tears in her eyes, Ellen gently patted his back while comforting him, "It's fine.
Everything's fine now, and I've gotten over it. Rather than remembering those painful
moments, I would rather forget them. I can mention it to you now because I've put it
behind me."
Eugene hugged her for a while before releasing her. His eyes were red when he added, "I
keep thinking that things have been too easy for them. It's only fair if they experience the
same pain you've experienced."
Ellen calmed him down by assuring him, "That's not necessary. Let the past stay in the
past. I'm happy now. I have two great sons and a powerful daughter-in-law and grandsons.
Four grandsons, to be exact."

why he had come here. He took Ellen's hand in his and asked, "I think you're happy these
days because you saw your savior. Am I right?"
