Chapter 262 : A Special Fate

Actually, the fact that they were all together was truly a remarkable coincidence.

If it wasn't for this coincidence, how could they have all gathered here in the first place?

Now, as they ate, laughed, and chatted together, everyone seemed extremely happy.

It seemed as if all the hardships they had gone through before had disappeared at this moment.

At first, the elderly women appeared somewhat restrained, feeling they didn't deserve all the attention.

But after experiencing these events, they realized that their presence was appreciated by the younger generation.

Since that was the case, why not accept their kindness graciously, and repay them in any way they could?

Just as they were all engaged in lively conversation, Mrs. Walker's gaze fell on Suri Drew once again, prompting her to speak up.

"What did you want to ask just now? Go ahead and ask!"

Unexpectedly, the topic that they thought had been bypassed was brought up once again.

Suri's smile disappeared instantly, and she looked awkwardly at Yigol Novak, uncertain of how to proceed.

Seeing her expression, Yigol naturally knew what was on her mind.

He felt very conflicted at this moment.

Trying to gloss it over at this point didn't seem like an easy task.

He also appeared somewhat embarrassed.

If they didn't speak up, Mrs. Walker might continue to worry that it was a serious issue.

However, if they did mention it, Yigol felt it might come across as rude.

After all, he wasn't a fool, and he could guess what might be the reason behind it.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Mrs. Walker couldn't help noticing the changes in the young couple's expressions, making her increasingly curious about what was going on.

The more hesitant they were, the more she felt there must be something important going on.

It was because of this that her interest in the matter only grew more intense.

She slowly laid down her chopsticks and finally spoke up.

"It's okay, you can just tell me directly. There's no need to be so restrained."

Even though she said this, the young couple still seemed very hesitant.

She paused for a moment before continuing to speak.

"It's really fine, just tell me what's on your mind."

The other elderly women nearby immediately nodded in agreement.

"Yes, we're all close now. There's no need to treat us like this."

"You both said earlier we should speak our minds right away. So why not follow your own advice?"

The elderly women felt concerned, fearing that there might be some issue on the part of the young couple.

Seeing their eagerness to know what was on their minds, Yigol finally relented and spoke to Suri.

"We should tell them."

Since the conversation had reached this point, continuing to keep it a secret didn't seem appropriate.

More importantly, Suri's curiosity had been piqued, and she wanted to know what was going on.

Eventually, Suri took a deep breath and gathered the courage to ask.

"Actually, I wanted to ask Mrs. Walker about your personal life."

Upon hearing that the question was not about something serious, but a rather trivial matter, Mrs. Walker sighed with relief, smiled, and waved her hand dismissively.

"Oh, I thought it was something important. Go ahead and ask, I'll tell you everything."

The other elderly women also exhaled in relief.

They had indeed misunderstood the situation.

If the young couple had shown any signs of disliking them, they wouldn't have clung to them like this.

Having lived for most of their lives, they were quite capable of reading people's expressions.

They were not like those thick-skinned elderly people who would cling to others persistently like a dog's skin plaster.

Upon realizing that this was not what they had imagined, they felt more at ease.

As they grew older, they became increasingly worried about becoming a burden to others.

Mrs. Walker began to share her story.

"Actually, I've guessed that you all might be interested in my personal life. There's really nothing to hide, I can tell you everything."

Upon hearing her words, Suri smiled awkwardly and spoke up.

"I was just afraid that I might bring up some unhappy memories for you."

Hearing this, Mrs. Walker shook her head.

"There are so many unhappy things in the world. Besides, those things are all in the past and don't mean much to me now."

With this reassurance, Suri felt relieved.

No matter what, they would respect Mrs. Walker's wishes. If she didn't want to talk about something, they wouldn't push her.

In this aspect, they were very respectful of her feelings.

If they continued to press her even after she had expressed her reluctance, it would not be appropriate.

After taking a deep breath, Mrs. Walker turned her head and, looking off into the distance, began speaking slowly.

"Actually, I did have a husband before, and I don't know if you know this, but I have a son and a daughter."

Upon hearing this, Suri felt a pang of distress in her heart.

If this was the case, what had happened to Mrs. Walker's family?

Truth be told, she had already guessed some of the possibilities.

Perhaps something had happened to her family back then.

Otherwise, Mrs. Walker wouldn't be all alone now.

At this moment, Suri felt somewhat guilty.

If she had known it would lead to this, she wouldn't have asked the question and reminded Mrs. Walker of her painful memories.

She immediately raised her hand to stop Mrs. Walker from continuing, shaking her head firmly and saying,

"Let's not talk about these sad things anymore. Today is supposed to be a happy day."

"It's all my fault for asking such a question."

Hearing her words, Mrs. Walker smiled at Suri, held her hand, and shook her head.

"Oh, child, you're overthinking it. Those things happened a long time ago, and they don't really matter to me anymore. Besides, part of the reason I do what I do is because of them. Not only did they cause me grief, but they also brought some positive feedback, didn't they?"

Upon hearing this, Suri was momentarily speechless.

She didn't know what kind of experiences those events had brought to Mrs. Walker's life.

The other elderly women beside them nodded and chimed in.

"That's right. Sometimes misfortunes and blessings are intertwined. It's not easy to judge whether a thing is good or bad so simply."

It had to be said that these elderly women had lived longer, experienced more, and seen things from a higher level than the young couple.
