Chapter148
She said it was her words, but Terrence seemed to have a desire
to reveal Bethany’s identity.
She started to feel a bit off balance in her heart.
Bethany gave Terrence a cold look and made it clear that she
wasn’t going to help him with that question.
He seemed gentle, but in reality, every move, every word, was
to make her unable to get money, and then obediently return to
Vespera Villa.
Kyson didn’t know about Bethany’s relationship with Terrence,
so he couldn’t figure out Terrence’s thoughts. He said, “Terrence,
Ms. Zavala won’t speak, so she can’t answer for you. Don’t make
it hard for her.”
Rigoberto’s eyes widened in an instant, and he stood up
excitedly, “She… she… she’s actually a mute?!”
He couldn’t believe it no matter what, Terrence married a mute!
Lucian was also shocked.
Kyson stared at Rigoberto and said, “Why are you making a
fuss? Stop calling her ‘dumb‘. Ms. Zavala is my guest!”
Terrence’s eyes, instantly grew a bit colder.
Rigoberto ignored Kyson’s words and stared at Terrence
angrily, saying, “Terrence, what do you mean? You didn’t dare
marry Krista back then, so you married a mute? You could have
found someone more normal, but you brought back a mute.
Letting Krista lose to a mute, huh?”
Kyson’s face changed in shock.
No wonder Terrence showed up uninvited, Bethany turned out
to be his long–lost wife of seven years!
Before Terrence could even speak, Kyson stood up and scolded
Rigoberto, “She is Terrence’s wife, how can you be so wishy-
washy? I know you have a good relationship with Krista and
want to defend her, but when Terrence didn’t marry her back
then, wasn’t it because she backed out first? Can you blame
Terrence for that?”
Two years ago, Kyson did set up the Shared Renewable Energy
Project, but his intention was for the benefit of the Duarte
Group, not to pick a fight with Terrence.
Not to mention he had to ask Terrence for help now.
Chapter148
We used to be good friends.
After that, Kyson turned to Bethany and explained, “Ms. Zavala,
oh, sorry, I should call you Mrs. McConnell. Rigoberto is just like
that, he speaks without thinking, don’t take it personally”
Krista also grabbed Rigoberto and said, “Calm down. Beth is
Terrence’s wife. You should not only think about yourself, but
also consider Terrence’s feelings.”
Bethany watched everything from start to finish with a cold
eye.
Everyone has their own needs.
And she, who was supposed to be an outsider, ended up getting
involved involuntarily.
But she wouldn’t let her heart get involved between them.
She had to leave Terrence.
Just now when Kyson stood up, he put the files in his hand on
the table in the middle of the sofa.
Terrence, who hadn’t said a word yet, reached out and picked
up the document.
His expression was deep and hazy, he raised the document
Chapter148
slightly, and looked at Kyson intently, “The project is closed.”
In the private room, suddenly it was as quiet as a mouse.
Rigoberto could tell that Terrence was willing to take on the
Shared Renewable Energy Project, even though he seemed
carefree.
Accepted Kyson’s gesture of goodwill.
It seems like this mute wife is not just a nice–to–have for
Terrence.
Rigoberto saw the disappointment on Krista’s face, held his
breath, couldn’t resist in the end, provocatively looked at
Bethany, and said, “Hey, that Dummy, how do you know
Kyson.”
The words had not even fallen yet.
Just heard a bang.
Terrence picked up the goblet with red wine on the table and
smashed it on the floor.
Glass shards flew everywhere, intertwined with spilled red
wine.
The scene fell silent once again.
Chaptertas
Terrence’s cold eyes were flashing with an unknown anger,
He elegantly got up, handed the project files to Bethany, and
suddenly picked up the still shocked Bethany sideways.
Standing there, he had a commanding presence.
“Since someone said my wife is mute, this wine tastes bland, I’m
leaving first.”
If he doesn’t nitpick his words, you wouldn’t even know he’s
angry.
“Terrence!”
Krista stopped him and said, “Rigoberto, he…”
Terrence turned his handsome face away, not giving Krista a
chance to explain, “You guys catch up.”
Terrence carried Bethany in his arms, walking steadily and
powerfully, but covered in a layer of cold white frost.
After Terrence left, Lucian patted Rigoberto on the shoulder,
“Bro, we came to see sparks fly between Terrence and Kyson,
how did it end up being you and Terrence sparking off?”
“Cut.”
Chapter148
Rigoberto rolled his eyes and said, “Boring, I’m done playing!”
He left angrily.
At that moment, Krista felt awkward and stood up in a hurry,
saying, “I’m worried about Rigoberto, I’ll go see him off.“”
Rushed out in a panic, feeling all mixed up inside.
