Chapter61
Now, the mystery that had puzzled her for a long time became
clearer and clearer.
She was deeply entangled in the love she had woven for herself,
and in the end, only managed to move herself.
For others.
She was a tool.
A complete tool…
She almost believed that everything about Terrence and Krista
was just her imagination, and she even considered reconciling
with him.
Bethany was almost suffocating.
A salty taste rose in her throat, and she quickly got up, walked
into the bathroom, stood in front of the sink, and spat it out.
The white sink was stained red with blood.
Shocking.
She was suffering from severe abdominal pain.
Chapter 1
She turned on the faucet, cupped clean water, rinsed her mouth,
and kept doing so until the clear water washed away the blood
in the sink. Only then did she leave the bathroom.
The whole person, as if the soul had been taken away.
She weakly lay on the bed, covered by a blanket.
The romantic love she longed for was just a joke.
Bethany was woken up by Eliza.
“Mrs. McConnell, it was time for dinner.”
Bethany lifted the blanket.
Eliza instantly widened her eyes.
“Mrs. McConnell, why were your eyes so swollen?”
After saying it, Eliza regretted it.
Mrs. McConnell must have shed tears of sadness.
Mr. McConnell and Mr. Emery both chased after that woman
and went abroad…
Bethany also felt her eyes swollen, and she sat up.
Eliza quickly said, “Mrs. McConnell, please wait a moment, I will
Chapter 1
go get some ice cubes to apply on your eyes.”
Eliza hurried out, Bethany got up and walked to the dressing
table, looking at herself in the mirror.
The eyes were indeed swollen severely.
At that moment, her phone rang.
It was an unfamiliar phone number, and she didn’t want to
answer it. After the call automatically hung up, it called again.
It doesn’t seem like a harassing call.
Bethany answered the call.
Terrence’s voice came out from the receiver.
“Bethany, Emery safely arrived this afternoon. I’ll give you
another chance, book a ticket and come over tonight, hmm?”
“Mrs. McConnell, the ice is here. I put it in a bag. Your eyes are
swollen too much. Hold it and apply it for a while, and the
swelling will go down.”
Eliza’s voice came through the phone.
Terrence immediately asked, his voice trembling with a hint of
confusion, “Did you cry?”
Chapter61
There was no sound on the phone.
“Bethany?”
Bethany hung up the phone.
Terrence didn’t wait for her response, only waited for the beep
sound when the phone got disconnected.
Bethany took the ice cube from Eliza’s hand and lay on the bed,
starting to apply it to her eyes.
Eliza whispered, “Mrs. McConnell, I went to heat up the food,
you applied the eye mask, don’t forget to eat when it’s ready.”
Eliza exited the bedroom.
Her phone rang, it was a call from Terrence.
Eliza frowned.
Terrence was really out of line, taking Emery abroad to find
other women and leaving Bethany alone at home.
Eliza didn’t really want to answer, but after thinking it over, she
still answered the phone.
As soon as the phone rang, Terrence’s voice came through.
Chapter51
“Was Bethany crying?”
Give him credit, he cared about Bethany.
I don’t know if she cried or not, she just woke up and I saw that
her eyes were swollen.
“You went to tell her to book a flight and come to see me. I had
made an appointment for wedding photos and a family
portrait.”
Eliza was very happy after hearing it.
“Okay, I went to tell Mrs. McConnell.“”
“Also, tell her that if she doesn’t come this time, I won’t be able to
determine when I will have a schedule for the next time.”
After finishing the instructions, Terrence hung up the phone.
Bethany knew he was busy, he had to give her a sense of
urgency in time, to make her behave and come over earlier.
Eliza wanted to come and tell Bethany earlier, but Bethany was
applying eye cream, so she decided to wait.
It won’t take too long.
This was an opportunity for Bethany to build a good
Chapter61
relationship with Terrence and Emery, and she hoped she could
seize it.
Not long after, Bethany came out.
Eliza was cleaning the house when she quickly approached and
relayed Terrence’s words to Bethany.
Bethany texted Eliza on her phone, telling her that she didn’t go.
Bethany’s condition didn’t seem particularly good, her delicate
and beautiful features lacked any trace of color.
Eliza urged, “Mrs. McConnell, why don’t you go visit? Don’t you
miss Mr. McConnell and Mr. Emery?”
Bethany shook her head.
Eliza thought that Terrence and Emery had always been
cherished by Bethany, it seems that Bethany was hurt by their
actions.
