Chapter 8%
On the day of the opening, a person–like thing rolled over my red carpet.”
It was Chloe.
Chloe was unrecognizable, with scars from cigarette burns and beatings with sticks all over her body and face. It was almost unrecognizable that she was held in Herman’s palm.”
She crawled over and held my ankle, kowtowing continuously.”
“Vera, I was wrong. It’s all my fault, please go back. I will never compete with you for Herman again! I’m going to be beaten to death by him! Please save me! I don’t want to die!“}
Two security guards came over and pulled her away and I squatted down to wipe the dirt off my ankle.}
“I never deliberately concealed my whereabouts. Herman couldn’t find me even though he was so rich. Didn’t you secretly help me erase my information so that Herman couldn’t find me and could stay with you forever?”
Chloe laughed at herself. “Yes, but I regret it. I was wrong. I thought that as long as he couldn’t find you, he could give up on you and see me staying by his side! Over time, I would always replace you. But I was wrong. I was wrong from the beginning. I didn’t expect Herman to really love you. He found something wrong and sent someone to investigate me. He found out that I bullied others. He found out that the last call you made before going abroad was to me. He believed that I was jealous of you and wanted to retaliate against you. I deliberately sent you abroad, leaving you in limbo.“>
She continued, “Because he couldn’t find you, he was crazy and thought I killed you. He abused me every day and said he wanted to avenge you! I really couldn’t stand it anymore. I won’t fight anymore. Herman is back to you. I don’t want it anymore!“}
I looked back and admired my own office building with a relieved smile on my face. “But, I no longer want Herman. I have never bothered to fight with you for something you don’t want to fight for. What you want to give me is just extra garbage to me.“>
The air around him became quiet and Herman appeared alone at the end of the red carpet.
He looked haggard, with a scruffy beard and no one followed him. He didn’t look like the domineering CEO he once was.> “Vera, do you really not want me anymore?“}
“Yes, I don’t want you anymore. Since you chose Chloe over me and the child, there has been no love between us, only hatred.“}
Herman approached me cautiously. “Vera, great, you are still alive. It’s good that you are alive! It’s good that you are alive! Chloe has always been two–faced, causing me to be kept in the dark for so long! If I had known that she was such a vicious woman, I would never give your life and the child’s life to her!”
He continued, “Can you give me another chance? Vera, believe me, I have sent someone to check, I will definitely let Chloe give you an explanation to our child! It’s just that the surveillance in the operating room was hacked and we can’t find out what she did in the operating room. Can you tell me?”
I curled my lips. The man who said he loved me for three years only thought of asking me what I experienced in the operating room three years ago.
Was it ridiculous? Was it important?2
“It doesn’t matter anymore.“/
I shook my head and raised my hand to let them go.”
Today was a good day to open a business and I didn’t want any unlucky people to come and disturb me.
Herman stood there with his neck stiff and unwilling to move. His face was covered in blood after being beaten by the tall and strong bodyguards, but he still stuck his hands firmly to the ground and refused to leave.”
“Vera, you can’t chase me away! I’m your legal husband! The man you’ve loved for seven years! Don’t even think about running away from me!”
