Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Too Hurtful, Too Painful “Moreover, my husband’s money is mine since we’re still married. Isn’t it right for me to spend it?”

“I’m not using Ms. Madelline’s money. Is Ms. Madelline too meddling? My husband didn’t even say anything?”

Nancy’s continuous words made Madelline blush furiously.

For some reason, Nicholas felt a little happy after hearing this.

“Okay. I won’t disturb Ms. Madelline anymore. I’m leaving.”

“Wait a minute, I want to have a few words with you in private,” Madelline suggested.

Nancy refused, “Ms. Madelline, what do you want to say? Just say it here.”

Madelline looked at her and insisted, “It’s only a few minutes. I promise it won’t take up too much of your time. Nancy, are you afraid?”

“I only give you five minutes.”

After that, Nancy walked to one side.

Madelline followed her steps and slid over in her wheelchair.

The two of them were alone in a relatively quiet corner, so it was very convenient to talk.

“The ring you just bought, I guess you bought it directly without trying it on,” Madelline spoke first.

“Does this seem to have anything to do with Ms. Madelline?”

“Of course it does.”

Madelline smiled. Her eyes fell on Nancy’s finger. I guess you have never removed the ring on your hand.”

Although she didn’t want to admit it, Nancy had to admit that Madelline’s guess was accurate this time.

When she was wearing this ring, she felt it was a little small. It felt a little tight when she put it on her finger.

At that time, someone saw her ring at school and asked if she was married.

1/5 She did not want to make her marriage public.

She just said it was a ring she bought while traveling. She thought it looked good, so she kept. wearing it.

“You’re not curious how I know that?” Madelline looked at her.

“I know you will say it. If you don’t want to say it, forget it.”

Nancy made a gesture to leave. Madelline immediately said, “The three rings you bought just now are the same size as your wedding ring. You definitely won’t be able to wear them. Only I can.”

“Madelline, don’t use this method to provoke me. I won’t believe a word you say.”

“Really?” Madelline smiled but was not in a hurry.

“If you don’t believe me, you can take out the three rings and let us try it. The results will speak for themselves, right?”

Nancy knew that she had fallen into Madelline’s trap.

But what can she do?

The trap was so deep that she couldn’t get out of it.

At that moment, she seemed to have lost her mind and opened the ring box, taking out three rings.

She then started trying it on her ring finger.

As a result, the first ring was too small.

The second ring was too small.

The third ring was still too small.

Madelline picked up the ring and slipped it on her ring finger easily.

The result was obvious, wasn’t it?

“Nancy, I know you don’t want to admit it, but I must tell you that the ring on your hand was customized for me by Nicholas. The size is also specifically made for my finger. My fingers are thinner than yours, so the rings naturally will be too small for you.”

“Also, Nicholas intended to use this ring to propose to me, but unfortunately, you got it first. Later, when you married, he didn’t want to waste it, so he gave it to you. Do you think he specially prepared it for you? It’s my unwanted trash.”

2/5 Nancy clasped her hands. She didn’t want to believe it.

Not at all.

But she knew that everything Madelline said was true.

Nancy suddenly felt like a loser. The marriage didn’t belong to her. It was a lie.

Even the wedding ring that was part of the marriage is fake. It’s all lies.

Fake. Everything was fake.

So what is true between her and Nicholas?

Madelline put the ring on her finger, then raised her hands and showed it to Nancy with a proud smile, That smile was dazzling.

What was even more dazzling was that the diamonds on the ring were dazzling under the lights of the shopping mall. So dazzling that it pierced Nancy’s eyes.

It hurts and painful.

The most classic advertising slogan about diamond rings suddenly came to her mind. What was it?

Oh, she remembered.

Diamonds will last forever.

Forever?

Haha. All of this was a joke.

It’s ridiculous that she took it seriously.

“Nancy, I’ve made everything clear. Do you still not understand? I’m the only one Nicholas has loved from the beginning to the end. You shouldn’t have appeared in our lives in the first place.”

“Your father, your mother, and your family background, if it weren’t for the gift and favor of Grandpa, you wouldn’t have touched a finger of the Sallows at all. Nicholas is a star that you can’t pick even if you stand on a ladder. Nancy, give up Nancy smiled, trying her best to suppress the pain in her heart. “What about you? Madelline?”

“After two years of marriage, how do you know he has no feelings for me? How do you know he still loves you like before?”

3/5 “Madelline, what are you afraid of?”

Nancy’s question made Madelline’s heart tremble.

She panicked.

She was terrified as well.

However, Madelline was not someone who quickly admitted defeat.

She raised her head and smiled with confidence and determination. “What am I afraid of? The person Nicholas loves is me. He is my courage to fight against this world. Why should I be afraid?”

“Really?” Nancy sneered. “On the surface, you make a lot of sense.”

“But Madelline, remember this. I don’t owe you anything. When I married him, you had already broken up with him peacefully.

When you came back, it was still during my marriage with him. You broke my marriage, but I, Nancy, never interfered with your relationship.”

“Whether you love him or he loves you, I will not bless you.”

Nancy turned around and went straight down the stairs.

If she stayed, perhaps she would cry.

In the past, someone asked her if she loved someone very much and loved him to the bone. Then one day, when he gets married, but the bride is not you. Would you wish him happiness?

She always thought that she would smile and wish him happiness.

She would wish him happiness and a happy marriage.

But now she knew that it was too difficult.

It turned out that you can’t wish the person you loved to be with another woman. Even looking at it hurts your heart, so how can you witness him doting another woman tenderly?

She was not a mighty woman.

She’s just a petty woman.

She also felt pain.

Felt hurt.

Could cry.

Just as Nancy was about to leave the mall, her hand was held by someone.

4/5 As soon as she turned around, she saw Nicholas.

“Why did you run away alone?” He looked at her with concern on his face.

Nancy tried her best to endure it, shaking her head. “I’m done shopping. I want to go back.”

“I’ll ask Lynn to send you back.”

“I don’t want Lynn to send me. What if I want you to send me?”
