Chapter116
So, was he with Bethany?
They…
The flames of jealousy in Krista’s heart burned stronger and
stronger.
She held the suitcase, her knuckles turning white, her red lips
slightly parted, her tone tinged with sadness, “Terrence, um… I’m
going back to my country today, could you please return my
room when you leave?”
Terrence raised an eyebrow slightly, “Why suddenly leave?”
Krista maintained a gentle smile on her face. “You also
witnessed Ms. Guzman’s attitude. The person she was waiting
for was Beth. During lunchtime, she almost explicitly
mentioned that I came back to the country for this matter. Since
the outcome has been determined, it is me who feels awkward
to stay!”
Terrence’s pupils deepened, his voice firm and devoid of
warmth, “She wouldn’t go to work, Ms. Guzman’s closed disciple,
in the end, it can only be you.”
Chapter116
Bethany was in the room and she heard every word Terrence
and Krista said.
It could only be Krista…
A sour curve appeared at the corner of Bethany’s lips.
Did Terrence ask her if she wanted to go to work?
He never even thought about letting her go to work.
Seven years ago, he disagreed. Seven years later, same as before.
She was just optional to him.
Indulge in a whim and coax a little.
Most of the time, she was left aside.
He could go back and forth for the sake of Krista’s future, while
she had to follow her husband and accompany him in
contributing to Krista’s career.
She would no longer be obsessed and deluded, this marriage.
must end.
He probably never knew that her heart was made of flesh and
could feel pain.
Chapter116
“Terrence, it’s not fair like this. I think what Ms. Guzman said
makes a lot of sense. Beth needs
to achieve some results to prove
herself more than me. If she succeeds in her career, her speech
defect will become an added advantage. Everyone will think she
needs to put in more effort to achieve success. Are you sure you
won’t let her go out to work?”
“It’s not that I didn’t allow her, it’s that she herself didn’t want to
work. However, she really doesn’t need to do anything. Isn’t
Mrs. McConnell’s status already perfect enough?”
Terrence’s deep and sexy voice was so pleasant, but every word
he spoke was piercing.
Bethany was thinking, this should be the art of killing without a
trace.
Terrence had this ability.
Over there, Krista’s voice came again.
“Terrence, you’re right. Marrying you was a great success for
her. With you taking care of her, she doesn’t need to work hard
for a career.”
Terrence heard the bitterness in Krista’s words and recalled the
past. His voice softened as he gently comforted, “Don’t think too
much, take a rest, and later we’ll go back to Rivermond
Chapter116
together.”
Krista pulled her suitcase and said goodbye to Terrence.
After she went out.
Terrence returned to the bedroom, Bethany curled up on the
sofa, arms wrapped around her legs, eyes still red at the corners.
Terrence walked over and crouched in front of her, his voice
low and hoarse, “I had the secretary book a flight for tonight.
Emery has been alone at home for too long, and I’m a bit
worried. I’ll try to get back as soon as possible today.”
After saying that, he picked her up and placed her on the bed,
covering her with a blanket.
He stood by the bed, slowly taking off his coat and suit, and then
lifted the blanket and got in.
Bethany immediately sat up and curled up in the corner of the
bed.
Terrence looked at her with a terrified gaze, his deep ink–like
eyes, and his crimson thin lips pressed into a line.
Then, he forcefully pulled her over and held her in his arms.
“Sleep!”
Chapter116
Serious voice.
He was very tired.
He didn’t touch her interest again after being interrupted twice..
I haven’t been getting enough rest recently.
He wanted her to sleep with him for a while, as he had to fly to
Rivermond later.
Bethany was trapped in his arms and couldn’t move.
She didn’t want to continue being so embarrassed in front of
him.
Fortunately, he didn’t touch her, he just held her tightly.
Terrence might have been really tired, but within a few
minutes, his breathing became steady and delicate.
It should have been asleep.
His warm breath was all over Bethany.
Bethany looked at the man beside her, even sleeping was
exquisitely captivating.
She was no longer infatuated and would not go back to
Chapter116
Rivermond with him and Krista.
She waited until he was sleeping more deeply, then gently
removed his hand.
Finally, I managed to walk to the bedroom door, carrying my
bag without waking him up.
The phone rang coincidentally or coincidentally.
