But Teresa didn't turn around and she just directly went to the bathroom to wash up. The two of them were entangled with each other because of the matter of the last generation. Maybe they would never be able to get rid of each other for the rest of their lives.
In other words, it was Enrique who didn't want Teresa to leave. They hadn't communicated with each other for a long time, and they never went through a real communication. Even now, he still didn't know whether Teresa's heart was on his or not.
When Teresa came out of the bathroom, she saw that Enrique was leaning against the bed, with a French book in his hand. Although she knew a few French words, it was impossible for her to read French book smoothly.
Reading every night seemed to be a necessity for Enrique before going to bed. Teresa guessed that if he was not allowed to read one day, he would feel uncomfortable all over.
"Have you finished?"
Putting down the book in his hand, Enrique turned his head to look at Teresa. Teresa nodded slightly. Every time there were only the two of them left, the atmosphere was always strange, especially these two days.
Teresa had something on her mind. She was thinking about the matter of Ives. Today's confrontation made her feel that there was something strange about what happened then. According to what Ives said, he and her mother loved each other.
But because of the obstruction of Jeffrey and the involvement of Albert and Harris, they were not together in the end. In fact, Teresa was wondering why? Since they loved each other so much, why didn't they elope?
Was it because Ives couldn't let go of the assets he had in the past? Or was he lying? But there was no need for Albert and Harris to lie to her. So, it was really confusing.
"Are you thinking about something?"
Enrique said again. Teresa didn't answer this time, but sat on the edge of the bed alone in a daze. She was really confused. He pulled Teresa into his arms from behind.
"Ah!"
Teresa screamed. Enrique frowned for her reaction. When she came to her senses, she found it was Enrique. What was he doing? Didn't he see that she had something on her mind?
"What are you thinking about? I can help you analyze it."
Teresa shook her head. Enrique was always a man of many thoughts. Teresa was afraid that the more she talked, the more mistakes she would make. Especially Enrique hated Ives so much.
If he knew that she was thinking that maybe Ives was not as bad as they originally thought. What would Enrique do then? Would he start to suppress her again? Or did he force her to stand by him using the custody of the two children as a threat? Or he could use cold violence. Anyway, it was easy for Enrique to use all of this.
"Why don't you say anything? Then let me help you to say it out. You are thinking that what Ives said may be true, so he hates the Shen Family and the Gu Family so much. However, you also think that it is impossible for the Shen Family and the Gu Family, especially the Gu Family, to deceive you, right?"
Teresa didn't say a word. Being held in the arms of Enrique, she didn't dare to move, but Enrique could clearly feel the stiffness of Teresa's body.
It seemed that Enrique had immersed in his memories. On the one hand, he seemed to be talking to Teresa, and on the other hand, he seemed to be talking to himself. Teresa was very quiet. Unconsciously, she even reached out and held the hand of him.
"After my mother died, he even didn't allow me to take revenge. Since then, I swear that I would become stronger. My father doesn't love my mother, so I have to avenge my mother. I grew up with the determination to avenge my mother."
When Enrique mentioned this, he frowned slightly. He remembered how he hurt Teresa in order to avenge his mother. And Teresa also remembered, but the two didn't mention it.
"It was not until I saw the way my father looked at Lydia that I realized that it was not that he didn't love my mother, but that he loved her very much. It was just that he didn't realize all that time. It was not that he didn't want to avenge his mother, but wanted to protect me. In fact, dad, father and Uncle Gavin had known that this matter was not simple on the first day Lydia came to our family. There is no such coincidence in the world."
"So you mean that they already knew that Lydia had a bad intention at that time?"
"Yes, that's why they played hard to get."
After hearing what Enrique had said, Teresa finally understood why Harris had changed a lot during that period. He treated her as his own daughter in the past.
It was not until now that she realized that what they had done that for cheating Lydia.
