Chapter 1653: You Missed Me So Soon?

Autumn York believed she made herself very clear, but whether Isla Lane understood was beyond her control.

"I don’t like what you’re saying. What do you mean we’re using saving someone as a hostage for someone else’s love? Alice Turner and Benjamin Shaw were originally married, don’t you think they make a great match?" Isla Lane understood Autumn York’s words, but she didn’t grasp their significance. She still believed Alice Turner and Benjamin Shaw should remarry, and she hadn’t thought much about love.

Hearing this, Autumn York couldn’t help but let out an exasperated sigh, "Isla! Alice and Benjamin divorced five years ago. It’s impossible for them to be together now."

"So what if they’re divorced? They can still rem—" Isla Lane suddenly realized something as she spoke and changed her tone, "How do you know they can’t be together?"

Her son had just mentioned this too, there was definitely something amiss here.

Upon hearing this, Autumn York covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes widening. Why did she say that? She was just making trouble for herself.

"Because there’s no love between them. If there was, they wouldn’t have divorced five years ago." Her son hadn’t mentioned the marriage; he must have his reasons, so she decided not to interfere.

Her relationship with her son was already tense; she couldn’t let it get worse.

"Five years ago, they got divorced because Benjamin hadn’t realized he loved Alice. If he had, they certainly wouldn’t have divorced," Isla Lane said confidently.

Hearing this, all Autumn York could do was sigh, "It just means they aren’t meant to be in this lifetime."

Her son had already divorced Alice, and given how much her son loved Alice, she thought divorce would never happen.

"Why are you always discouraging me today? What did I do to offend you?" Isla Lane blamed Autumn York for discouraging her. At this moment, she didn’t care about what Autumn was saying; she found the words hurtful and frustrating.

How could she say that? How was it discouraging her?

Autumn York didn’t want to say more to Isla Lane, because no matter what she said, the person on the other end wouldn’t understand, "Isla! I’m not discouraging you, I just don’t want to oppose them together anymore. I want to leave the decision to the kids.

"I have another call coming in, so let’s end this chat. Bye for now."

Before Isla Lane could respond, Autumn York hung up. After hanging up, she set the phone to silent.

When she tossed the phone aside to prepare for a nap, she suddenly thought of something and picked up the phone she had just placed next to her pillow.

Autumn York wanted to call Thomas Fisher, to ask him what his plans were and why he didn’t dare to go public despite being married.

Just as she was about to dial out, she changed her mind and switched her son’s number to Alice’s number.

In recent days, she realized her son no longer had a sense of direction and now only listened to his wife, ignoring anything his mother said.

"Mom! You’re already missing me so soon?"

Alice Turner quickly answered the call, and as soon as she did, she started joking around. She wasn’t good at this before, but after spending time with Thomas Fisher, she was influenced subliminally.
