Chapter67
So, wedding rings are worn on the ring finger.
It must be like this for her to have a heartbeat.
Bethany quickly retrieved her heart.
When I raised my hand to take the ring.
Terrence held her two hands in his, his slender fingers
threading through the gaps between her fingers, entwining
with her ten digits.
His deep gaze stared directly at her.
“Wear it, not allowed to take it off.”
The voice was not loud, still in a commanding tone.
Bethany’s hand was controlled by him, and she was unable to
answer him. She could only reluctantly accept his ridiculous
charity.
There was still no expression on her face.
Terrence remembered that once he passed by a mall and
unexpectedly saw a pair of pearl earrings that he thought
Chapter67
would be perfect for her. When he came back and gave them to
her, her eyes were filled with a sparkling radiance, like starlight.
He approached her, lowering his voice, and said, “Don’t you
really like it when I give you gifts? This sound–emitting
diamond ring was specially made for you.”
Seven years, they had been married for seven years.
With his shrewdness and discernment, it was impossible for
him not to know that she loved him.
He was very good at playing with her emotions.
Saying the harshest words hurt her.
Did the most ruthless thing, almost killed her.
In the blink of an eye, it was as if it had never happened.
Give a slap, then give a sweet date.
She told him, “That’s how cheap your existence is, dispensable.”
Terrence suddenly let go of her hand, and she took the
opportunity to get up. He then tightly embraced her slender
waist and pressed his face against her chest.
“Don’t move, let me lean for a while. I’m very tired, haven’t slept
Chapter67
for thirty–six hours.”
Bethany was not upset that he didn’t move, but rather because
he held her too tightly, making it impossible for her to move.
He stopped talking, and there was silence in the room.
After a while, she heard his steady breathing.
She furrowed her brows.
Did Terrence fall asleep so quickly?
She dared not move, maintaining this posture for about five
minutes. She gently shifted her body, preparing to slowly
release herself.
“Don’t go, um, let me hold you for a little longer.”
Bethany froze and dared not move. She lowered her head, her
eyes tightly shut. She didn’t know if he was sleep–talking or if he
had sensed that she was about to get up.
It was probably not a deep sleep.
Bethany helplessly let him press his face against her chest.
Maybe he was really tired, so he sat like that and fell asleep.
Chapter67
The key is, Bethany also fell asleep in a daze like that, not
knowing when both arms had wrapped around Terrence’s
neck.
When Bethany opened her eyes, she found herself sleeping in
her and Terrence’s marital home.
She saw the time on the wall clock, it was already 2 o’clock in
the afternoon.
She actually fell asleep so deeply!
She didn’t know how she came back.
Was her illness serious?
Also, today was Cassie’s exhibition in Rivermond.
It was already 2 o’clock, and the museum would close at 5
o’clock.
Bethany got up from the bed in frustration and quickly went to
freshen up.
She saw the ring on her hand and took it off.
This thing had a speaker and couldn’t get wet.
And also, she didn’t want it.
Chapter67
She placed the ring on the dressing table.
After finishing washing up and getting dressed, she opened the
door and was immediately stopped by the two bodyguards from last time.
Terrence!
He actually wanted to lock her at home again!
At this moment, Terrence’s voice seemed to come from
nowhere.
“Stay at home, remember to prepare dinner, there will be guests
at home tonight.”
Bethany looked around in search of the sound.
There was a surveillance camera installed on the eaves outside
the villa, facing the entrance of the villa.
Terrence’s voice came from the surveillance.
She smiled helplessly and turned to walk into the villa.
Eliza didn’t dare to speak when she saw her.
Mr. McConnell came back last night holding Mrs. McConnell.
Early this morning, he arranged for bodyguards and installed
Chapter57
surveillance outside. There was a faint feeling that something
big had happened between Mr. McConnell and Mrs. McConnell.
Bethany had just sat down on the sofa in the living room when
she received a message from an unknown number.
From the content, she knew it was Terrence.
Terrence emphasized in the message that the evening guests
were important and asked her to make sure to prepare well.
Bethany couldn’t help but chuckle.
He used to avoid her whenever guests came.
