Chapter 85 A compromise (1/2)
With Terence's reminder, Lisa dared not neglect. She had checked out Hester at noon and took her home.
Hester realized that it was getting more and more difficult for her to contact Austin.
She had intended to borrow Lisa's phone to contact Austin. But no matter how hard she had begged, she refused. The network of their house had been indeed cut off. This time, she had become the princess of the castle and was isolated from the world.
Hester had felt the loneliness and despair under this kind of living environment.
She restlessly opened the book 'Jane Eyre'. It had been read many times, and she had kept in mind the equal love in it.
Hester was very clear that how could she have equal love with him?
Terence was always a domineering man. He could do whatever he wanted, but she could only be at the mercy of others. Just like what she was experiencing now, one idea of Terence made her unable to come into contact with the outside world.
Hester felt sad.
She didn't know when Lisa came in and said, ”Miss Hester, it's time to have lunch.”
Hester nodded and put down the book. She looked at Lisa, who continued, ”One more thing, Mr. Terence is back.”
Terence? Hester was a little surprised at the news. She had seen it before that Terence was dating with Melody, but now he was home?
Wasn't having dinner with the girl he was going to hang out with?
She took her hopes strangely, but it was turned back again.
'Hester, what are you thinking about? There is a reason for his return. In his heart, you still have no status. Do you understand?'
Hester was depressed at her self's words. She followed Lisa slowly downstairs and saw Terence sitting at the table.
