Shirley always believed that as long as she kept waiting, Bill would definitely see her advantages one day.
She was confident about that.
However, no one would have thought that, at this moment, words from his mouth totally destroyed her efforts in the past five years.
"I won't marry you even if you wait for your whole life!"
Every single word that Bill had said was like a knife cutting through Shirley's heart mercilessly.
It was true that she liked him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have waited for him for five years. Although she was unwilling to do so as well.
"Bill!" She turned her head and looked at him who was walking in. She could see anger burning in his red eyes.
Bill squinted at her and passed her directly.
Shirley clenched her trembling hands. She felt too ashamed to face those people in the house.
She had been waiting for five years!
Seeing his son, Scott's face darkened.
"Your marriage is not up to you." They always treated each other like enemies when they met.
"Scott, I'm not here today to talk about this with you. Two years ago, did you send someone to kill Euralia?"
His eyes were full of resentment and he was gritting his teeth. If he could not protect the woman he loved deeply, what's the meaning of his life?
He was never a coward in front of Scott. In the past, Scott could still threaten him with Euralia. But now Scott could do nothing about him.
"What if I did? And what if I didn't?" Scott didn't care about his questioning at all. It looked like he was in a condescending attitude.
Bill walked to him quickly and grabbed him by the collar. He was staring at him with hatred. It seemed that he was going to swallow him up.
"You must have arranged everything, right?"
Bill was certain that this must have something to do with Scott.
He had been suffering the pain of missing her these years. The two women he loved most in his life had left him because of him. He hated him so much.
"Bill, do you want to kill me?" With his collar being grabbed tightly by him, Scott didn't show the slightest trace of fear. After all, he knew the weakness of Bill.
He always knew that he hated him! But he didn't care at all. In his eyes, Bill should listen to him.
Because everything he had was given by him, and he had no right to bargain with him.
"Bill, he is your father." Violet tried to persuade him.
Bill glared sideways at her, who was too scared to say a word.
"Don't be impulsive, Bill. He is your biological father. What else in the world is more important than family?"
Shirley had been hurt by him, but she had to behave obediently in front of Scott.
"Shut up! This is between me and him." Her words enraged Bill. He tightened his grip on Scott's collar and wouldn't let him go.
"Bill, are you crazy? Are you really going to give up the whole family business for a woman?"
Veins stood out on Scott's forehead. He got rid of Bill's hand with his wrinkled hands.
"I can give up anything for her!" Bill cried out.
He didn't realize that Euralia was more important than anything until he lost her.
H
ng very resentful and sad.
"Because you shouldn't have come here since the very beginning. Scott bet heavily on you. I can tell him and you now that I will not follow his orders."
The unruly and arrogant tone of him was exactly the same as that of his father when he was young.
"But I love you so much." Shirley felt that she had lost all her face anyway. If she could pretend to cry because of love, it might be helpful.
As long as she could stay here, she would still have hope.
"But I only love one person, and it's not you."
After saying that, he turned around and went home. Shirley was left there alone, looking at those packages with a blank mind.
She used to live in the house as his fiancee, but now she was kicked out like a black sheep.
Five years ago, it was because Euralia left, but today, she lost hope because of her return.
"Euralia, I won't let you off the hook for the rest of your life." She clenched her fists, with her long nails sunk into her palms.
Just as she was about to move her steps feebly and leave the house with the things, the one she hated appeared.
Dressed in a snow-white dress and with a delicate make-up, Euralia held a document in her hands.
She was stunned to see that. In front of her, Shirley had already cried for a long time. Her make-up and hair were all in a mess. She looked like an abandoned woman.
Her miserable condition now was in stark contrast to that of Euralia!
It was the most ironic thing for Euralia to see her like this. She didn't want the one she hated most to see her end up so miserable.
"Shirley." Euralia said with disbelief.
Shirley didn't speak and walked past her silently. She wanted to go as far as she could and didn't want to look embarrassed in front of her.
What the hell was going on? Euralia looked at the packages with confusion.
"Oh, Miss Euralia!" Terri shouted after observing for a while.
Euralia looked at Terri who used to love her and care about her.
Time passed by. Terri's hair had turned grey and wrinkles had covered her forehead.
