Delayed Regrets: He Regretted Only After Her Death-Chapter 170: Still Wants to Have Children with Her

Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Still Wants to Have Children with Her

Tiana Linden raised her thick lashes and looked towards the glass greenhouse, where a riot of colorful lisianthus was in full bloom.

She loved lisianthus the most.

Of course, she was extremely familiar with the growing environment of lisianthus.

This flower thrives in an environment with a temperature of 15-28 degrees and ample sunlight.

Aiden Grant managed to cultivate this patch of lisianthus on an island where heavy snow falls by mid-October, which was no easy feat.

And they bloomed so splendidly.

Outside the glass greenhouse, snow was falling piece by piece.

Just a wall apart, outside was winter, but inside was like spring with flowers in bloom.

Which girl wouldn’t be moved by that?

Yet when Tiana Linden raised her thick lashes to look at Aiden Grant, her pupils were filled with a sense of repulsion.

"Aiden Grant, I’ve said this before, and I’m too lazy to repeat it. But I still want to say it again: A love that comes too late is cheaper than grass."

"The Tiana Linden you once loved died in the emergency room long ago."

"The Tiana Linden standing in front of you now was painstakingly saved by Hector Chaucer."

She knew that Hector Chaucer could successfully escape death row, and overturn his case, entirely because of her.

Hector Chaucer wasn’t as powerful as people imagined.

He had moments when he couldn’t hold on.

He managed to hold on until he escaped, entirely because he had a woman he needed to protect in his heart, which had always been his motivation for growing strong.

All of these didn’t need Hector Chaucer to express to her, she had deeply felt them in everything Hector had done for her.

Looking again at the vivid lisianthus in the glass greenhouse, she could only find it laughable.

They couldn’t make Tiana stop and look,

nor could they make her even glance a few more times.

She quickly withdrew her gaze, "Take Daisy and me to our room, we’re tired from the journey."

From Tiana’s disinterested gaze, Aiden Grant felt a deep sense of defeat.

Wasn’t she the one who loved lisianthus the most?

In this extreme cold, he grew the lisianthus she loved, yet she wasn’t the slightest bit happy, instead, she felt aversion.

The disappointment in his heart was beyond words.

But Aiden Grant still maintained a patient smile, "It’s okay, I’ll keep growing these flowers. Maybe one day, you’ll like them again. Come on, I’ll take you to your room."

After leaving the greenhouse, Aiden Grant led the mother and daughter upstairs.

On the second floor, he had specially prepared a children’s room for Daisy.

The room was spacious, decorated in soft pink tones, with many Princess Elsa design elements.

Because Aiden knew, Daisy loved Princess Elsa the most.

"Daisy, this will be your room from now on. Daddy prepared it especially for you."

"There are two more children’s rooms next door, reserved for future siblings to stay."

When they reached Daisy’s children’s room, Tiana had already seen the other two children’s rooms.

One girl’s room, one boy’s room.

Together with Daisy’s, there were three children’s rooms.

This man, isn’t he quite full of himself!

Was he so sure she would have two more children for him? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

At the same time, Tiana found Aiden quite frightening.

He had planned future matters so thoroughly, was he completely determined not to let her go?

Daisy didn’t answer Aiden.

Aiden casually picked up a gigantic Princess Aylia pillow and handed it to Daisy, "Daisy, do you like it?"

Daisy snorted coldly, "I already told you I don’t want you to be my dad, you really have a thick skin."

Aiden took a deep breath.

Holding the Princess Elsa pillow, his hand clenched tightly.

Before him was a little girl with a cold face, not showing any kindness whatsoever.

Standing beside her, holding Daisy’s little hand, Tiana was the same.

Tiana suddenly thought that Aiden, with such thick skin, really resembled a clown.

No one cared about everything he had done.

"Take me to see my room,"

The room Aiden prepared for Tiana was spacious.

After leading Tiana inside, Aiden said, "This is our room."

At a glance, there was a semi-hidden walk-in closet.

With the door open, one could clearly see it filled with men’s and women’s clothes.

Neatly arranged, it felt very homely.

Yet Tiana said to Uncle Carter and Mrs. Walsh beside her, "Uncle Carter, Mrs. Walsh, please help me move the ladies’ clothes in the wardrobe to Daisy’s room. I’ll sleep with Daisy."

Uncle Carter and Mrs. Walsh didn’t respond.

They glanced at Aiden.

Without a word from Aiden, the two didn’t go to sort the clothes.

Tiana knew that Uncle Carter and Mrs. Walsh found it difficult; with Aiden around, they had to listen to him in everything.

They didn’t dare to take her clothes, so she went herself, taking them down piece by piece, holding them in her arms, "Daisy, help mommy carry these back to your room."

Aiden had experienced how stubborn she could be.

He looked gloomy and told Uncle Carter and Mrs. Walsh, "Go help!"

Now that they’re here.

Tiana and Daisy couldn’t fly away even if they grew wings.

He had all the time to patiently wait.

After Mrs. Walsh took away the large bundle of clothes, Tiana came to Aiden and held out her hand, saying:

"You’ve confiscated my phone, at least give me a phone."

Aiden signaled with a glance to Carter beside him.

Carter handed over a phone with a SIM card already installed, the case was designed for girls, very pretty, and handed it to Tiana, "Ma’am, Mr. Grant specially prepared this for you."

Tiana lit up the phone screen.

There was a lock screen, prompting her to enter a password.

Aiden reminded her from the side, "The password is the date of the night after your college entrance exams."

Tiana remembered that date.

It was a day she didn’t want to recall, but it was engraved in her memory.

The college entrance exams ended on June 9th, twelve years ago.

And the day they tasted the forbidden fruit was the second night after the exams, June 10th.

No matter how deeply it was engraved in memory, Tiana still pretended not to remember, coldly saying, "I don’t know the day you’re talking about, remove the password for me."

She handed the phone back to Aiden.

Aiden didn’t take it, "You know it."

It seemed like Tiana deliberately wanted to provoke Aiden, coldly saying, "I don’t know."

"You know."

"I said I don’t know, I just don’t. Aiden, don’t expect everyone to remember the past clearly. Those awful memories, I don’t want to remember them at all."

"You remember."

She remembered everything.

She just refused to admit it.

In the end, the phone she held out in front of Aiden, he still didn’t take it.

Nor did he unlock it for Tiana.

With a calm face, he said, "I can allow you to temporarily sleep in the same room with Daisy, you take Daisy for a good rest, I’ll go downstairs to prepare lunch."

There were many servants hired here.

But Aiden Grant still decided to personally prepare lunch for the mother and daughter.

After he left, Tiana Linden’s long eyelashes drooped down, unable to hide her helpless emotions.

This man’s perseverance was even better than she had imagined.

But she hated this kind of persistent harassment.

"Mom, how long are we going to stay here?"

She held the phone Aiden gave her and returned to Daisy’s children’s room, "Mom doesn’t know either."

"Even though I really like the snow here, Mom, I don’t want to stay here at all. I miss being with Dad."

"Mom feels the same way."

She missed being with Hector Chaucer.

After returning to the room, she took a hot bath with Daisy.

After drying Daisy’s hair, she lay on the bed and picked up the phone Aiden had given her.

A prompt popped up on the screen, still asking her to enter the unlock password.

She remembered that password.

After entering it, many past memories surged in her mind.

Aiden Grant did it on purpose.

He deliberately wanted to bring up a string of memories she had long put aside, to disgust her.

In the new phone, Aiden had already saved his, Uncle Carter’s, and Mrs. Walsh’s numbers, along with some emergency contacts, doctors, and bodyguards’ numbers.

He even applied for a new WeChat account for her.

The first person in her WeChat contacts was Aiden.

Her and Aiden’s profile pictures were a set of couple’s avatars.

It was a photo they had taken together before she went to prison.

The two stood on a golden beach, stepping on white waves, holding hands with their backs to the camera.

The two photos, the background was the same, and the hand-holding scene was the same.

The difference was, in Aiden’s photo, Tiana snuck a kiss on his cheek.

While in Tiana’s WeChat avatar, Aiden snuck a kiss on her cheek.

This WeChat avatar had been used from their high school days up until Tiana went to prison.

Just as Tiana changed her WeChat avatar and was about to send a message to Aiden, Aiden’s first WeChat message popped up.

He asked: Remember the password?

Tiana was typing.

Aiden asked again: Do you like the new phone I prepared for you? I kept all those photos, and there are many more in your album.

Tiana immediately replied: Don’t ask questions you know the answer to. I don’t like it, I don’t like it at all.

After a while, she sent: I’ve changed the password, and deleted the photos.

Aiden: Delete slowly, I have plenty more.

The entire phone album was full of past photos of her and Aiden.

Tiana deleted them one by one, unable to finish deleting them all.

She kept operating and pressing delete on the album.

Unknown to her, Aiden had set something, making it impossible to batch delete.

This man was forcing her to recall every bit of the past.

As she scrolled down the page, a revealing photo popped up unexpectedly.

It was her lying in Aiden’s arms, one arm pressing against the quilt, the other hugging him, revealing a thin and white clavicle, nestled in his strong chest, deeply asleep in the photo.

When this photo was taken, Thomas Grant was smiling happily and contentedly.

At that time, Aiden was youthful and exuberant, unlike his calm demeanor now.

Many past events that Tiana was unwilling to recall appeared in her mind like picture after picture.

Simply put, she decided not to delete them.

She nearly let Aiden sway her pace.

Getting this phone, she didn’t want to reminisce about an unpleasant past.

She only wanted to try and see if she could contact people back home.

She couldn’t remember Hector Chaucer’s phone number.

She attempted to dial domestic emergency numbers.

As she expected, it didn’t go through.

She then tried searching online for ways to set the phone so that calls wouldn’t be restricted.

In the end, it was all to no avail.

Beside her, Daisy was tired of waiting, lying in front of her, chin rested on her hands, asking, "Mom, still can’t call Dad?"

Tiana operated again, "That annoying person is not only a doctor but also a hacker. If he set up some program, and Mom can’t break it, then this phone can only make calls to those few people."

Daisy drooped her head, "What should we do then, I really miss Dad."

"Daisy, don’t get discouraged." Tiana put down the phone and rubbed Daisy’s head, "Dad is much more capable than that annoying person, he’ll definitely find a way to find us."

Tiana picked up the phone again.

Only then did she realize that the WeChat avatar she had changed earlier had somehow reverted to the photo of her and Aiden on the beach that he had set.

This man was determined to use past events to manipulate her.

She was intent on standing up to Aiden.

With the phone, she took a photo with Daisy and changed the avatar again.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

After a few knocks, Aiden pushed the door open and stood at the door, gently looking at the mother and daughter, "Lunch is ready, you can come downstairs to eat."

People are iron, rice is steel.

Tiana wouldn’t let herself and Daisy go hungry.

Since they were here, she decided to take good care of herself and Daisy first.

Everything, to be discussed at length.

A table with five dishes, one soup, a dessert after the meal, and a plate of fruit.

All Chinese food.

There was Daisy’s favorite sweet and sour ribs.

Aiden picked up a piece for Daisy, and Daisy blocked it with her chopsticks, "I have my own hands, no need for you."

That piece of ribs Daisy blocked, Aiden wanted to give it to Tiana, but she also blocked it with her chopsticks, "I have my own hands too."

Aiden took a deep breath.

Gripping one hand tightly.

He put the ribs in his own bowl, "I’ve set up encryption on your phone so you can only contact those few people in your contacts. Don’t waste your efforts."

Tiana snapped her chopsticks, her face darkening, saying, "Aiden, do you take me for a prisoner? Even going so far as to monitor what I do on my phone, do I have any rights?"

Aiden elegantly and calmly picked up a mouthful of white rice, "When you decide to give me another child one day, and we live peacefully here as a family, I’ll let you contact whoever you want."

Tiana was so angry she couldn’t eat.

Her chest felt clogged with soaked cotton.

Across from her, Aiden said slowly, "Moreover, Hector Chaucer is supposed to be our best man. By then, if you don’t contact him, I will."

This decision had been made many years ago.

For their wedding, Christopher Grant and Hector Chaucer had to be the best men.

All these, Aiden remembered.

Seeing Tiana set down her chopsticks and bowl, he placed a piece of pan-fried snow fish in her bowl and said, "Eat!"

No matter how angry Tiana was, she couldn’t joke about her own health.

She decided to replenish her strength.

Because between her and Aiden, a long battle was about to begin.

If she didn’t keep her body in good condition, if she didn’t eat properly, she couldn’t compete with Aiden’s thick skin.

Picking up her chopsticks, she ate heartily, then gave Daisy a piece of her favorite sweet and sour ribs, "Daisy, eat!"

Aiden looked at the mother and daughter and said calmly, "I’ve already contacted the school on the island. Once Daisy gets used to it here in a few days, I’ll arrange for her to enroll."
