Chapter209
Terrence looked towards the Duarte’s villa. The lights were on
inside. Only Kyson and Jameson were at home. Kyson
answered his phone. Did he need to go outside?
Bethany only saw Jameson once and didn’t have a chance to
bring up their divorce.
So, there’s only one possibility… she only told the Duarte family
about it today.
So, she was in there!
Kyson noticed Terrence’s gaze, took a step forward, and stood in
front of Terrence. “It’s getting late, you should go home and tuck
in your son.”
Terrence pushed Kyson aside and stomped towards the Duarte’s
villa.
“Terrence, Terrence…”
Kyson quickly caught up, if Terrence and Bethany bumped into
each other, Bethany would definitely not be happy.
However, Terrence had already rushed in.
“Terrence!”
Bethany and Jameson were having a great chat, having a good
time, when they heard Kyson’s voice and looked towards the
door.
Bethany was startled, and her hands on her knees clenched
suddenly.
Terrence looked for her, he would definitely force her to come
back.
Bethany subconsciously leaned towards Jameson and hooked
her arm around his.
Jameson’s body suddenly stiffened, his granddaughter would
make the same movement every time she was scared.
Jameson felt very close to Bethany because of her grandmother,
and now he feels even closer to her.
He immediately patted Bethany’s hand and said, “Don’t be
afraid, girl. Grandpa is here. He won’t let this brat bully you.”
Terrence raised his eyebrows, “Did you tell Jameson that I
bullied you?”
Jameson immediately stood up and said, “Terrence, what do you
Chapter209
mean? Beth didn’t say anything bad about you. Are you always
accusing her like this? You little brat, not treating your wife
well and now you’re here to interrogate her?”
A warm feeling rushed through Bethany’s heart, when others
used to bully her, her grandmother would always protect her
like this.
She hadn’t felt the warmth of being protected by loved ones for
a long time.
“I didn’t come here to point fingers.”
Terrence pulled out two rectangular velvet boxes from the coat
pocket.
Bethany immediately recognized that it was the necklace and
brooch she had sold last time.
The boxes were all original.
Terrence opened the box containing the pearl necklace, “I came
to give her a gift.”
Jameson trembled with drooping eyelids, saying, “If I’m not
mistaken, this should be the family heirloom of the Gilbert
family, the dowry your mother received from your
grandparents when she got married, made from pearls of some
Chapter209
queen in the past.”
“Jameson’s still got that sharp eye.” Terrence handed the
necklace to Bethany, “Don’t sell it next time.”
Kyson was shocked. Bethany had the nerve to sell off Terrence’s
mother’s belongings.
Bethany knew that the pearl necklace was expensive, but she
never expected it to be “Terrence’s mother’s heirloom.”
But, even so, we can’t let her heart be stirred up anymore.
She didn’t answer.
Terrence’s hand froze in midair.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold and awkward.
Jameson didn’t know the real situation between Terrence and
Bethany, but Terrence was willing to give Bethany his mother’s belongings, and even when Bethany sold them, Terrence got
really angry. He was thinking Terrence must have some
feelings for Bethany.
For the older generation, when two people who have been
married are not at the point of no return, they still want to
encourage reconciliation.
Chapter 209
However, Jameson saw that Bethany did not react positively to
Terrence’s kindness, so he naturally didn’t try to mediate in
front of them.
How to say, he also wants to support Bethany.
Jameson cleared his throat and said, “Terrence, Beth wants to
divorce you. Sending these expensive gifts now, trying to
change her mind? It’s not that easy. Once a person’s heart is
hurt, it’s not easily healed. Since Beth doesn’t want them, you
should take them back for now.“”
At that time, Krista called Terrence.
Terrence answered the phone.
“Terrence, at this point, you should have had dinner at the
manor, can you spend the rest of the time with me? The moon is
very round tonight, I am moon–gazing on the terrace of Linden
Manor, thinking about not being able to celebrate with my dad,
feeling a bit sad, if it weren’t for what happened seven years
ago, the McConnell family should have invited me over today, I
wouldn’t be so lonely by myself…”
Krista sounded sad, Terrence remembered that morning at the
cemetery, and his family’s attitude towards Krista was very
cold.
Chapter209
In the past, the McConnell family didn’t treat her like this.
This change, it’s because seven years ago…
Anyway, seven years ago, Terrence felt very guilty, so Krista
had to bear a lot because of it.
“Okay, I’ll come over in a bit.”
Terrence put away his phone and gave Bethany a deep look.
