Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 753

I didn’t know if he took it to heart, but he stopped crying and fell into deep thought.

I was shocked to see him in this state. I wondered if I had been too harsh in what I said. The series of blows he had received were indeed overwhelming for him.

Although his actions were infuriating, he was also a vulnerable individual.

I eased up a bit, observing his emotions.

After a moment, he looked at me. His face remained pale. He seemed much older, and I even doubted if this was the Matthew I used to know, always lively and confident.

The person before me now appeared dejected and helpless.

"Chloe, can I still clear my name? For the projects I supervised, I didn't cut corners or use subpar materials, but for the one in Muborough, I knew nothing about them. It was all Liora framing me." His emotions calmed, and his thoughts became clearer.

"Then tell the truth to the judge. If you can't explain it the first time, do it a second or third time until you can prove your innocence. That's what a real man does." I encouraged him.

I knew that all this time, he considered me his backbone. In the ten years we lived together, every big and small decision of his was discussed with me. He sought my advice before taking any action.

After succeeding, he would revel in his achievements, thinking he had done something significant.

However, at that time, I couldn't see this flaw in him. I thought a man should experience the joy of success, and seeing results would boost his confidence.

Unexpectedly, this became his fatal weakness. I became his crutch, his adviser. Without this support, he felt lost and even hopeless.

I suddenly understood that all this was my doing.

Before, when he got into trouble, I knew he had been trying to see me. If I had seen him, encouraged him, and provided guidance, he wouldn't be in this situation today.

Not seeing me led to his despair. That was an undeniable fact confirmed by his question just now.
