Watching the way the two people interacted, which was different from that of ordinary friends, Garrett felt a strong sense of disgust in his heart,
He was about to ask Ruth who this person really was when he heard her words, and suddenly became confused again.
“It was my fault, Ruth. Will you forgive me? Give me another chance, I promise I won’t make the same mistake again. From now on, you will be the only one in my heart, and I will never stray again”
Ruth had heard another version of these solemn promises five years ago.
Back then, Garrett promised to pursue her just like that.
But what was the result?
So when she saw him make this promise in person again, Ruth couldn’t help but first it laughable.
“Why do you think I would leave behind a life of complete liberation, only to turn around and continue a marriage that is w
worse than death with you? And why do you think I would give a second chance to a man who is untrustworthy and goes back on his word? I am not a saint, and this is not a garbage collection center. You have mistaken me for someone else.”
Garrett’s face gradually turned extremely pale in these few sentences.
He did not understand why things had developed to the current state today.
He felt his mind in a chaotic state, with emotions of regret and fear gradually devouring what little sanity he had left.
He really wanted to explain everything clearly, but when he thought about those things he had done himself, he felt there was no way to argue
The atmosphere froze like this.
I don’t know how long it had been, when a familiar voice came from the entrance of the villa
“Garrett!”
Anne, who was still recovering from a serious illness, gasped for breath as she chesed after Garrett and grabbed him tightly.
Ruth took just one glance at the hands of the two people interlocking, and Garrett immediately snapped out of his daze. He swiftly shook off her grip, as if avoiding a venomous snake, and forcefully pushed her down to the ground.
Anne never expected to make such a big fool of herself in front of Ruth
She looked up in anger and immediately caught sight of Garrett’s indifferent gaze and the smile that flashed across Ruth’s lips.
She understood this laughter as a mocking revenge, and the fire in her heart burned even stronger. Unable to control herself, she started acting again.
“Garrett, what are you doing? Did the lady say something to you again? Didn’t you promise me last time that you wouldn’t believe hearsay? You said the lady has a bad temper and acts childish, and asked me to be more tolerant towards her. I have been following your words..”
“Shut up!” you said to me
Her tea talk was only halfway through when she was silenced by Garrett’s extremely cold gaze.
Ruth watched as the two people performed this scene, feeling a profound sense of meaning and couldn’t help but offer her comments.
“Anyway, we had already divorced, so let her continue talking. I’m quite curious, to be honest, about how a person I sincerely liked for five years turned out to be such a hypocrite with a deceitful nature.”
Garrett’s eyes suddenly widened to their fullest extent, as he hurriedly tried to explain, only to be interrupted by Anne’s shocking words.
“Have you divorced?
Ruth nodded with a smile, looking at the person lying on the ground with an indifferent expression on her face.
“Separated, and from now on, we will definitely not remarry. Congratulations, Anne, you can take over now.”
Every word and sentence stabbed into Garrett’s heart like a knife.
He trembled uncontrollably, looking at Ruth with despair in his eyes, only to see her calm smile.
This relieved smile was a hundred times more painful for Garrett than these words.
He felt ashamed to face her and was afraid to hear more words that would make it even harder for him to accept
He could only escape, stumbling and staggering, in the gradually darkening sky.
Escape from this place of unbearable pain.
