Chapter 397
Bride of Mr.Billion
Although I couldnât believe what I saw in front of me, I even told myself that things might be different from what i thought.
I should trust him.
But I couldnât.
If they had nothing to do with each other, why did he hide it from me? Why did Connor stop me?
Why did they have to book such a romantic restaurant half a month in advance?
I stared blankly at them for about two minutes before I turned and left.
Because Herbert had his back to me, he probably couldnât see me at all, and the girl didnât know me, so Herbert didnât know that I was here at all.
This was also what I wanted to achieve. I didnât know how to face this situation now. In fact, I really wanted to go over and ask him who this woman was. But I didnât do this, because I felt that it was really unnecessary, although my heart was about to break.
And I was afraid that I would cry in front of him. I didnât want to cry in front of another woman.
I didnât seem to have the right to question him, because I was his exâwife. Haha, it was such an awkward identity.
He refused to marry me again. It turned out that it was because of this reason. My heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
I turned around and walked out. I stretched out my hand and pressed the elevator button in a daze, feeling my mind go blank.
Connor caught up to me and began to explain in a low voice, âMiss Stepanek, itâs not like what you saw.
Thereâs a reason why Mr. Wharton is doing so.â.
Hearing this, I couldnât help sneering. âWhat reason does he have? Did someone force him to come to this coupleâs restaurant with that girl?â
My finger was pointing at the advertisement poster on the wall. The picture on the advertisement poster was like a dream. In the fancy revolving restaurant, there were couples everywhere. Connor frowned.
âMiss Stepanek, Iâll help you find a hotel. Let Mr. Wharton explain it to you in person, okay? At this time, the elevator came. I smiled bitterly and said, âWhat else is there to explain? Itâs really not necessary I was completely enraged. I didnât want to hear him say another word.
After that, I turned into the elevator and pressed the button to go to the first floor.
The instant the elevator doors closed, Connorâs face was isolated from the outside.
The next moment, tears welled up in my eyes.
I had been holding it in for a long time. Although it had only been a few minutes, it was like a century to me.
When there was no one in front of me, my tears came out. I reached out to wipe my tears. I didnât understand why Herbert would do this to me.
He said that he loved me and lived with me.
But he was dating another woman?
For a moment, I was very agitated.
I was a little regretful that I didnât go over and question him just now. I should have splashed the red wine on his face.
In the past, I was like this.
Now, my heart was really tired. It seemed that I couldnât love or hate him. I just felt very sad.
âDing!â The door of the elevator opened. I stepped out of the elevator and walked out of the lobby.
As soon as I stepped down the stairs, someone called me from behind.
âMiss Stepanek, wait a moment!â
Behind me was Connorâs voice.
I wiped away my tears and turned to face Connor under the moonlight Connor walked up to me and said with a frown, âMiss Stepanek, itâs already very late. Where are you going alone?â
I knew that Connor was worried about me. âConnor, I wonât act rashly. I wonât forget that Iâm a mother of two children right now. They need me. I am going back!â
âBut now, itâs already so late...â Connor said in a rather conflicted manner.
I interrupted him. âThereâs a train back to A City tonight. I can make it.â
âIâll take you to the train station.â Connor immediately decided.
âThereâs no need. After they finish eating, you have to send them back.â I looked up at the bright revolving restaurant in the night sky.
Connor looked at me. He didnât say anything, but his eyes were clearly still filled with worry.
Then, I said, âConnor, donât tell him that Iâve been to New York. Let me keep my last bit of self esteem in front of him.â
âAlright.â Connor nodded.
Then, I tried my best to smile, turned around, and disappeared into the night...
Sitting on the train in the evening and looking out of the window at the night, I felt very confused.
The family of four had just reunited. The laughter in the living room seemed to still be ringing in my ears, and the scene of Herbert playing with Lucas and Lucky was still in my mind.
The family of four that I once thought were happy turned out to be an illusion. But even if it was an illusion, I was not willing to expose this fact. I suddenly looked down on myself. Once upon a time, I was not a person who could tolerate such a thing. But today, I didnât have the courage to question him face to face. The lights on the train dimmed, and the tourists also leaned against their seats to rest. However, was not sleepy at all, and my head hurt. The next morning, I got off the train.
