Chapter 10
I didn’t care, but Tatiana cared a lot.
She didn’t know when she appeared at the press conference, rushing over to Jared in a hysterical manner, pulling him and questioning him, “Jared! Why did you say these things to Raquel! The person you love is clearly me!”
Jared pushed her away, his eyes filled with disgust. “Get lost! If it weren’t for you meddling in between, Raquel wouldn’t have gotten so angry at me!”
Tatiana’s
mine!”
eyes were filled with resentment and bitterness. “It was her fault! She always had to compete with me for everything! You said you were always
“Don’t you remember how much you loved me before? Raquel’s resources, all I needed was to say I wanted them, and you would help me snatch them!”
“She liked limited edition handbags, and whenever I wanted one, no matter how difficult it was to find, you always helped me find it! At the fashion gala, my haute couture always outshone Raquel!”
“Are these all the special favors you gave me? Don’t you remember them anymore? I divorced for you already, what are you doing now?”
“Can’t you see that the person who loves you is me, not Raquel?”
I looked at Tatiana expressionlessly as she confessed her feelings to me, feeling sorry and pitiful for her in my heart.
Her mother was like this. Even though she had already separated from my father, she was unwilling to accept that her ex–lover had married a wealthy woman and resorted to tricks to become pregnant with Tatiana.
I was unfortunate throughout my life, which made my family restless and chaotic.
Tatiana, too, was twisted by her upbringing, and she only wanted to play with me.
But I didn’t need this.
I had absolutely no reason to be exclusive to Jared.
Shaun spoke up, “Both of you are respectable individuals, so let’s not bring up personal matters and not let it affect the release of Ms. Bryd’s new movie.”
Jared’s eyes gleamed with coldness as he stared straight at Shaun, saying, “Who are you? Raquel is my wife, and it’s none of your business to interfere.”
He turned to me again and said, “Raquel, you wouldn’t fall in love with someone else, right… You told me that you would never develop feelings for someone in a play!”
“I knew you were ignoring me because Tatiana wanted to film your script. Believe me, I thought it was just an ordinary script stored on your computer. I had no idea it was written by you!”
“I swear, you are the only one I love. These past six months, I couldn’t sleep at night because I missed you so much!”
After half a year of calmness, my guard was already up, and I no longer wanted Jared’s love.
I remained calm and composed, saying, “Jared, from the very beginning of our marriage, your motives were impure. Since that’s the case, it’s best to cut our losses now.”
“I didn’t love you anymore, and it wasn’t a game of cat and mouse.
Jared shook his head in pain and took out the engagement ring I had left at home, getting down on one knee. “Then let’s get married again, I propose to you again.”
“Raquel, I couldn’t be without you. In the past, I was blinded by ignorance and couldn’t see my own heart. I thought I loved Tatiana.”
“I didn’t realize how much I loved you until I heard about your accident. I wish I could have died with you.”
“I really thought this way, if you were really dead, I would never live alone!”
Tatiana on one side suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, her face contorted, her eyes burning with flames of madness and jealousy. She didn’t know where she pulled out a glass bottle from, screaming, “Then you can all go die together!”
After shouting, he suddenly threw the glass bottle towards me.
Jared’s pupils contracted abruptly, and in the instant when sulfuric acid was splashed, he flew towards me without any hesitation.
