Chapter424
“Didn’t I run into danger in Alenia and ask you for help?”
“But what did you give me?”
Since he wanted to talk, then he should make it clear!
“You went on a business trip last minute and promised me you’d make up for my birthday when you got back. But you actually took Krista with you. If your good son hadn’t said I was just a nanny you hired, or said his mom went on a trip with his dad, I wouldn’t even have known you took her with you.”
“The first thing I thought of when I was in danger was my
husband. I forgot I should have called the police first, not you! In
the end, it was the police and rescue who took me to the
hospital. Did you ever think that if they were a bit later, I could
have died? Why else would I use SOS?”
Last time, at her apartment door, she also signed a bunch of
sentences all at once.
That day, he stayed up all night and made up his mind to talk
things out with her.
But because Emery’s quilting contest was about to start, I had to
leave first.
This time, she finally said so much in one go again.
He kind of understood, she just misunderstood him.
It wasn’t that I didn’t love him.
He couldn’t hide his excitement and pulled her into his arms with one arm, holding her tight.
“Let go.”
Bethany pushed him away with all her strength. She hated him.
She hated how he threatened the people around her.
Divorce was just between the two of them, but he always dragged other people into it.
“Beth, you got me wrong, it wasn’t like what you thought.”
“Terrence, don’t think you could fool me again, I wasn’t going to believe you.“”
Bethany turned to the side and stopped looking at him.
“I really promised to make up your birthday when I got back, I
stayed up all night, planned to come back early the next day,
Emery was talking nonsense, I can get him to come back and
clear things up, Krista didn’t go with me, she went ahead to join
Ms. Guzman’s comic–con.”
“Stop talking.”
These explanations were weak.
If it wasn’t for their own son reminding her, she wouldn’t even know Krista went to Alenia with him.
She even started to use the voice ring he gave her that day, but when she called with Eliza’s phone, it was Krista who answered.
They lived in a room.
“Beth…”
Terrence was about to keep talking, but Bethany turned around
and glared at him: “I told you to stop talking, don’t you get it? We’re already at this point, what’s left to explain? Our marriage
is broken, it’s a mess, and no amount of explaining will bring it
