Chapter 22
Looking at Brenton’s distant and indifferent tone, Crystal felt a pang in her heart. She pinched her palm and finally told him about Evelyn’s decision.
When Evelyn mentioned that she was going to marry Crystal, Brenton’s face immediately darkened, his eyes devoid of warmth and his tone flat.
“And what about you, do you also want to marry me?”
Crystal looked at the face in front of her, which was exactly like her deceased husband’s, and nodded involuntarily.
One of the main reasons she was willing to marry Dylan back then was because she was attracted to his face.
Even if Brenton doesn’t love himself, with this face, if he has a son in the future who looks similar to him, he won’t lose out.
But she couldn’t say so.
“I have said before, with my current reputation, no one is willing to marry me. If I don’t marry you, who else can I marry?”
After hearing this expected answer, Brenton was filled with exhaustion.
If he had known that pretending to be Dylan and sleeping with her to have a child as a solace for Crystal would cause so much trouble and prevent Dylan from resting in peace, he would never have done it.

He leaned back on the bed, closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead, his tone full of helplessness.
“But you knew I didn’t like you, and I couldn’t marry you. All the kindness I showed you before was because of Dylan.”
“Moreover, I came to Hawaii this time to win back Leanna and be husband and wife with her again.”
Ever since Leanna came into his life, Brenton could no longer see anyone else in his eyes.
Upon hearing Brenton’s words, Crystal couldn’t help but feel ironic.
After arriving in Hawaii, she specifically inquired about Leanna’s
situation.
Now not only did they get married, but she is also pregnant. Their relationship is even closer, and no one can break them apart.
Saying she wasn’t jealous would be a lie, but Crystal also didn’t have time to be jealous of Leanna. Her top priority was to keep Brenton firmly in her grasp.
Therefore, she chose to wake him up directly from his daydream.
“Stop thinking about it, you can’t win her back. Besides, when it comes to being a couple, I spent more time in bed with you than you did with her when you got married.”
Isn’t it true that Brenton and Leanna were separated shortly after they got married, and not long after that, something happened? When he returned later, he continued to have intimate relations with himself.
“Moreover, we even had a child between us, Brenton. No woman would be willing to turn back for a man like you, except for me.”

It’s unclear which word triggered Brenton, but suddenly he, who was usually calm, flew into a rage and grabbed something nearby to throw at Crystal.
“Enough, get out of here!”
“Get lost!”
On the other hand, Leanna was unaware of what was happening between Brenton and Crystal.
After being carefully taken care of by Ethan, she is now stable. Having stayed at home for over a month, she can finally go out for a walk.
So on a whim, she pestered Ethan to accompany her to check out the newly opened mall, and they also bought some clothes and formula for the baby in her belly.
Because the mall wasn’t very far away, the two of them didn’t drive and instead walked slowly.
On the way, Leanna was like a bird released from a cage, looking here
and there.
Ethan didn’t stop her either, he just followed her closely, protecting her safety.
Because they didn’t know if the baby in their belly was a boy or a girl, they bought two sets of everything.
When they were ready to pay at the counter with a pile of things in their arms, they were told by the server in front of them that someone had already paid for them.
