Chapter 27 The Harmon Family
the past, I looked forward to receiving call from Leonard. But now, every time I saw the name “Leonard Harmon” on my screen, I would feel annoyed.
But at the thought of the projects under my care, I returned to the office. When I arrived outside Leonard’s office, 1 saw Lily run out crying. When she saw me, she glared at me.
Iwasn’t sure whyshe reacted that way, I walked into Lonard’s office and asked, “What’s up?”
Leonard was a little dazed when he saw me with short hair. He asked, “Why did you cut your hair?
Not wanting to answer that question, I repeated myself.”What’s up?”
We have a Harmon family dinner tonight. I need you to come with me.’
Leonard rubbed his brows. He looked reluctant to amend the dinner. He was a Harmon, yet he didn’t belong with the Hansons
In the past, I only knew that he was an orphan and was adopted by his grandmother. Much later, the villagers in his village helped him with his ID.
If it weren’t for his excellent grades, Leonard may never have been able to leave that small village. But Leonard had an aura that set him apart from the small village, and that was what attracted me. When he was facing his darkest days, his identity was revealed Three months after I broke up with him and left for Manovia, Leonard reunited with the Harmon family, Perhaps, it was fate.
At that time, Leonard’s grandmother suffered from a serious heart disease, and he had to travel between work and the hospital. Leonard was just a junior programmer, and be didn’t have much money. Meanwhile, I was experiencing my first cancer onset. My family experienced a financial crisis too. I was in poor condition, and the cancer spread rapidly. My mother made the tough decision to send me abroad.
Before I went abroad, my mother told me to break up with Leonard, Crying, Tremember telling her, “Mom, Lenard won’t abandon me. He loves me so much. He would never breakup with me because I have cancer.
My mother shook her head. She seemed so sad. “You silly girl Leonard’s grandmother is awfully ill, and our family is in a bad situation. Our company’s funds are being monitored too. You must go abroad now.” Trefused to break up with Leonard. But when my mother told me the truth, Thad no choice but to comph.
My grandmother and two of my aunts had died from cancer. At that time, I didn’t know my mother was diagnosed with cancer either. That was why she telt so hopeless.
“Eva, this disease may not be 100% hereditary, but look at us. I know that Leonard is a good boy, and I know that you love him, but I don’t want
you to hate each other in the future, do you understand? you drag him down now, what about your fee? Will you still have a furuce together?”
My mother’s words left me paralyzed. Leonard may not abandon me, but what if our child ended up dying from cancer? I couldn’t imagine how Leonard would react when he discovered the truth and it he would hate me. Leonard had always desired a family. I didn’t want his wishes to fall through At only 20 years old, I never imagined my own death.
tered for days, but when debt collectors started visiting my home, left the country as my mother had arranged.
Before I left, I encrusted my roommate with the pink diamond necklace that my grandmother left me, asking her to give it to Leonard so that he could sell it for money to fund his grandmother’s medical bill I handed it to him personally, he would never take it, even more so v My mother even insulted him, criticizing him for his wishful thinking she accused him of being only interested in my family’s wealth
Leonard was proud, yet he waited outside my house for three days and three nights. When he heard the news that left for Manovia with a rich man, only then did he leave.
In the very hospital where his grandmother was admitted, Leonard met his biological grandfather.
Arthat time, lan Haimon was in urgent need of a bone marrow donor. Leonard had simply volunteered to be tested, but he burned out to be a successful match. After the surgery, tan insisted on thanking Leonard personally
Perhaps it was the telepathic connection between family members, but when Tan first met Leonard in the hospital, Lan knew that Leonard was part of the Harmon family. The two dida DNA best, and it confirmed Leonard’s identity. After married Leonard, I visited the Harmon residence several times. It was only then I found out that Leonard’s parents had gone missing 20 years ago.
When Leonard was three years old, the family went out for a hike but went missing after that. Ridnappers called and asked for a ransom, and the Harmons paid it. However, the kidnappers went under the radar after that. Everyone beloved that the kidnappers killed the three of them. But to their surprise, they encountered Leonard years later
Leonard was the only grandson in the family. After years of being separated from the family, Leonard’s reappearance affected the Harmon family dynamics.
Leonard hated to exchange pretentious conversations with the Harmons. After we got married, Harmon entrusted me with the duty to communicate with the Harmons. Every time we visited the Hammon residence, he would sit next to me in silence Whenever Leonard had to visit the Harmon residence, he would get impatient, just as he did now,
Leonard knocked on the table and said disdainfully, “Remember the time. You can go alone.”
As observed the direction where he left, It dawned upon me. No wonder Lily ran out crying! Since I was still Mrs. Harmon, Lily wasn’t permitted to attend the Harmon family gatherings
But Lily was not completely at a loss diet at, Leonard had gone to comfort her.
At the thought of the Harmons, I felt reluctant to attend the family event. But remembering, who treated me dally well, I decided to go to show my respect for lan
