Betrayed Bride, Relentless Groom Chapter 11

Betrayed Bride, Relentless Groom Chapter 11

I looked at the calculating woman in front of me, finding it hard to understand how she could

have such thick skin.

“It was you who rejected Henry because you thought he was blind, then deliberately seduced Ethan and got a marriage certificate with him. What’s this? The first love with a bond stronger than gold, but now it’s not good anymore?”

Cynthia’s eyes reddened and she rolled up her sleeves, revealing bruises of varying shades of

purple

“Ethan is not human, he hit me! He said he was supposed to marry you and I ruined your

relationship. He wants everything to return to where it was supposed to be. If I don’t comply,

he’ll hit me.”

I felt speechless. So, for them, marriage and relationships were just a game.

If they wanted to back out, did we have to play along?

“I’m sorry, but I am now Henry’s wife. He’s a human, not an object and I won’t let him go to

anyone!”

Seeing that I refused, Cynthia immediately kneeled outside my door, saying she wouldn’t get

up until I agreed.

I dialed Ethan’s number, “Come and take your woman away, or I won’t hesitate to call the

police!”

Ethan ordered someone to drag Cynthia away, his gaze complex as he looked at me.

“Wendy, I can’t just watch you stubbornly marry a bad man, I just saw Henry enter a hotel with

a seductive woman…”

My heart froze in an instant, unwilling to believe it.

But just earlier, Henry had sent me a message saying he had something important tonight and

probably wouldn’t be back.

Ethan dragged me into a car and we drove all the way to the entrance of the most luxurious

hotel.

We waited silently as the night fell, watching as Ethan and a beautiful woman chatted and

My Tican 11020 111 an Nolan, unwiny to believe it.

But just earlier, Henry had sent me a message saying he had something important tonight and

probably wouldn’t be back.

Ethan dragged me into a car and we drove all the way to the entrance of the most luxurious

hotel.

We waited silently as the night fell, watching as Ethan and a beautiful woman chatted and

laughed while leaving the hotel.

Ethan couldn’t wait to pull me forward, standing in front of Henry and her.

“Wendy, you saw with your own eyes. Henry is not sincere with you.”

I stared at Henry, my mind desperately clinging to one thought: escape from here and from

this filthy world.

I was afraid that if I stayed even a moment longer, the tears would fall. In a panic, I turned and

tried to run.

But I didn’t expect to trip over my own feet and fall hard to the ground.

Henry quickly walked over with a concerned expression, “Wendy, where are you hurt? Does it

hurt?”

silently swatted his hand away, keeping my head lowered, but the tears betrayed me and

began to fall.

Ethan stepped forward and pushed Henry aside. “Hmph, scumbag!”

Henry was utterly confused, glancing at the woman behind him, then at his pitiful wife in front

of him.

slapped his forehead, grabbing my hand and giving a wry smile to the woman behind him

“Emily, it’s all your fault. Come here and clarify things for me!”

“Emily?”

It turned out the woman behind him was Henry’s sister. She hadn’t been able to attend our

wedding due to some prior commitments, but had come this time to deliver our wedding gift.

However, she had received an urgent task and needed to put together a business proposal

overnight, so she brought Henry along to help.

She had planned to meet with me tomorrow after finishing everything, but instead, this huge

misunderstanding had happened.

I was instantly filled with embarrassment and shame.

But Henry just laughed like a big fool. “Wendy, are you jealous of me?”

Ethan looked defeated, his eyes filled with despair as he watched me and Henry, so deeply

connected.

He had finally realized that he had lost me, forever.

“I’m sorry, Wendy. I used to want everything, but in doing so, I hurt you. Do you hate me?”

I looked at him quietly and there was no longer any trace of the pain I once felt. “No, hatred only arises from love. I don’t love you anymore, so I don’t hate you. Now we have our own lives. Please, let’s not disturb each other again.”

After a long silence, Ethan sighed and slumped his shoulders in defeat.

“Wendy, I wish you happiness.”

Finally, the eight years of entanglement, love and resentment came to an end.

My life with Henry was peaceful and happy.

But there was always one thing he never spoke of why he had married me. He always

deflected the question.

It wasn’t until our daughter was three years old, playing hide and seek, when she accidentally

knocked over a box in his study that I finally understood.

Looking at the photos and diary inside, everything became clear to me.

It turned out that years ago, when his parents‘ relationship was on the rocks, he ran away from home and had his wallet stolen. Lost and helpless, it was I who gave him all the pocket

money I had saved up.

From that moment on, he kept me in his heart. However, after his car accident that left him

blind, he hesitated to pursue me.

When he heard that I was about to get engaged, he received news about a potential cornea

match overseas.

Unable to sit still any longer, he released the news about his planned marriage to Cynthia.

There was no such thing as the fair deal he had claimed. It was all part of his long–planned

scheme.
