The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 283

"I came here looking for you for two reasons. One is to personally apologize to you." Joanna looked at Isla with sincerity, and said, "I feel sorry for what I did to you before. I was misled by Becky, and made you suffer so much. I am here to make a sincere apology to you."

"Grandma Joanna, please don't do that." Isla had waited for this "apology" for such a long time, but now that it was really happening, she felt weird and uncomfortable. It never felt like how she thought it would be. She replied, "You were also kept in the dark from the beginning to the end. How could I blame you?"

Joanna could now see that Isla was a considerate girl. Why did she use to think of her as a scheming bitch?"

"Isla, I am such a thoughtless old woman. I am. How should I believe Becky's words full of lies and loopholes." Joanna gave her a bitter smile. It was because Becky's "perfect" acting led her to make such a mistake.

"It's not your fault, Grandma Joanna." Isla smiled with tenderness, and continued to ask, "Today you come here ... only to apologize to me? If so, it's really unnecessary. I have actually forgotten about it."

"And the other reason is ......" Joanna was hesitant whether to continue. Joanna glanced at Isla with a guilty conscience. She seemed too embarrassed to mention it. After a while, she continued, "Is that your boyfriend?"

"Oh, are you talking about Stephen?" Isla was a little amazed at Joanna's question, and she shook her head at once, "No, he is not..... yet. I'm not young any longer, so my parents are pressuring me to get married. I have been going on blind dates these days, and the boy you see is my blind date today. "

Isla smiled but with a bit of embarrassment to Joanna. She added, "He is kind to me, and I also like it when he is around. But I want to make friends with him first."

After hearing Isla's explanation, Joanna felt a little awkward. Isla has begun to move on and look for a new life that totally belonged to her. Unfortunately, Aron was still immersed in the last relationship, failing to free himself.

Aron got completely drunk last night. She hadn't seen Aron lose himself drinking during the years when they lived together. She was the one who made everything into a mess. As a result, Joanna thought it was a must for her to visit Isla so that she could make up for her mistakes.

No matter what difficulties there would be, she should try her best to overcome them.

"Grandma Joanna, if you have some words to speak to me, just go ahead." Isla noticed Joanna appearing embarrassed, so she asked Joanna on her own.

On hearing that, Joanna simply dropped all her shyness. She raised up her head, saying, "Isla, in fact, it is hard for me to tell you the second reason why I come here for you. But for my grandson who has failed me and his happiness, I have to have a word with you."

As soon as Isla heard what Joanna said, she knew that the following words that come from her mouth would have something to do with Aron. Considering this, Isla couldn't help her heart beating loud. But she still pretended to be composed, and replied, "Yes? What's the matter?"

"Before I came here today, I have well organized the words that I planned to tell you. But now, as I really sit in front you, I have no idea what to say." Joanna smiled with bitterness. After some hesitation, she eventually decided to talk to Isla, "I previously didn't know how your relationship with Aron was going, but last night, I thought I began to understand Aron's feelings."
