Chapter 1748 Do You Regret It
“Of course I do. Who doesn’t have any regrets in their lives?”
“Is that so?”
Tillie blinked upon hearing Sasha’s answer.
Sasha nodded. “Yes. However, there’s no cure for regrets. Therefore, I have to correct myself so that I don’t repeat the same mistakes the next time.”
Tillie was stunned.
“The next time?” She thought that she had heard wrongly.
Do I still have one more chance? Given that I do not have much time left, that would be a luxury for me. If I truly get that opportunity, it would be in my next life.
Tillie squirmed the corner of her lips.
Finally, she got up from her chair obediently. When she followed Sasha back indoors, a vibrant smile had returned to her face.
“Mrs. Jadeson, I noticed that your three children have grown up a lot. Vivi in particular looks very different now.”
“Indeed.”
Upon hearing Tillie change the subject, Sasha followed suit and didn’t continue with their earlier topic.
“Nevertheless, it’s all thanks to Riley. She had taken good care of the children when they were in Yorksland.”
“No thanks are needed. She’s obligated to do so anyway.”
The moment they discussed the matter, color began to return to Tillie’s ashen face.
After all, Riley was the only person in the Cooper family to bring her cheer.
“By the way Mrs. Jadeson, there’s something I want to trouble you with. It’s related to Riley. Given her age, can you introduce someone to her?”
“Huh? Me?”
Caught by surprise, Sasha almost bit her own tongue.
Of all people, why is she asking me to be a matchmaker? Does she realize it’s a bad idea? I’m not fit to be one at all.
Just as she spoke, Tillie let out a sigh by the side.
“That’s right. Riley doesn’t listen to the both of us. Furthermore, after what happened to Dad, she had lost interest in relationships and isn’t willing to get married.”
“Erm…”
“Therefore, I figured that she would definitely agree to someone you matchmake her with. After all, you would definitely not do her harm.”
Tillie gave Sasha a hopeful look.
Her biggest wish now was to see Riley find happiness before she died.
In the event Edmund fell back into his old ways, Riley would be the only person carrying the burden of the entire Cooper family on her shoulders.
Even though she was a woman of the Cooper family, her two other sisters didn’t even come close to being compared to her.
Sasha was startled again. But after giving it some thought, she saw the reason behind Tillie’s suggestion. On top of that, she was fond of Riley too.
As a result, Sasha agreed to do so in the end.
“All right then, I’ll talk to Grandpa about it and see if he has anyone compatible in mind.”
“Mmm-hmm. Thank you, Mrs. Jadeson.”
Tillie finally broke into her first smile for the new year.
After dinner, it was time for the Coopers to leave. As Edmund was utterly drunk after having drinks with Devin and the others, Tillie went over to help him when she saw the condition he was in.
However, the moment she touched him, he unexpectedly shoved her aside.
“Go away! I… I’ll walk by myself.” Subsequently, he swayed side to side as he staggered out. In the end, Devin went to help him when he couldn’t tolerate the situation any further.
The entire scene caused Riley to stomp her feet in anger.
That b*stard! I’ll make sure to teach him a lesson when he wakes up tomorrow.
Riley then walked up to Tillie’s side. “Tillie, about that…”
“I’m fine, Riley. Why don’t you check if he left his bag behind? While you retrieve it, I’ll go get the car,” Tillie plainly suggested as if she wasn’t emotionally affected at all.
With that, she grabbed the car keys and went to start the car.
Riley was stumped.
Out of ideas, she had no choice but to do as she was instructed.
Feeling the urge to intervene, Sasha entered the room and walked up to Riley from behind.
“Riley, you had better keep a closer eye on Tillie, for her health doesn’t look good.”
“What did you say?”
Riley raised her head immediately and stared at Sasha in shock.
The gravity of the situation finally dawned upon her.
This time, Sasha no longer held back and revealed her analysis, “I noticed that her eyes have a yellow tint to them and she often hunches her back. If my guess is correct, there’s something wrong with her organs.”
Riley’s mind was blown away.
Problems with her organs? How can it be? Tillie has never mentioned it before.
Riley was flabbergasted.
Without any delay, she grabbed Edmund’s bag and ran after Tillie. However, she missed them by a few minutes, as the two of them had gotten into the car and driven off.
Inside the car, the drunken Edmund looked at Tillie, who was at the wheel, and mumbled, “Why haven’t you changed?”
