Chapter 60
Bella’s POV:
The woman in front of me had no arrogant expression that a third party should have.
Caroline knew Herbert earlier than I did.
From a certain point of view, I was the ridiculous third party.
She could understand why Herbert loved her so much since her voice was so soft and beautiful.
“Miss Ewell? If you have anything to say, just say it. I have something to do later.” I didn’t want to chat with her anymore. I just wanted to know why she was here today. Caroline lowered her head and looked at the coffee cup in her hands. She seemed to be hesitating. A few seconds later, she looked up at me with a pair of big bright eyes. “Mrs. Wharton, I’m sorry. I know I shouldn’t have come looking for you, but I truly love him. I can’t live without him, and he can’t live without me. Please allow us to be together, okay?” Caroline stared at me with a pleading look.
This feeling was very strange.
I was the wife of Herbert. I was the one who was hurt.
But in the face of Caroline, I felt that I was the bad person, the third party
I lost my confidence in an instant.
Even though I was already guilty. I still knew my position. After all, I was the lawful wife of Herbert.
I said in a very cold voice. “You should go and find Herbert. If he wants to divorce me and marry you, he can do it!”
Caroline wiped her tears and said, “Herbert is a kind person. Now that you have his child, he won’t divorce you at this time, so I’ll be the bad person!”
“What do you mean? Do you want me to ask for a divorce by myself?” I suddenly felt that the woman in front of me was not as kind and sweet as she looked.
Caroline had been pretending to be weak, constantly wiping her tears with a tissue. “I know that my request is very excessive, but are you happy with your marriage now? Can you feel the love he has for you? “It’s my own business. You don’t have to worry about it!”I hated this Caroline very much now. If she really loved Herbert very much, she could directly take him away. Why did she have to humiliate me?
I instantly lost my good impression of this woman.
“You are also a very independent woman. Are you willing to live with someone who loves other women in his heart?” Caroline suddenly stopped crying and stared at me.
These words stabbed into my heart like a sharp knife. Looking at her, I felt sad. The sharp pain made me almost unable to breathe.
Herbert didn’t like me. I’ve always known about this.
However, it was not the same thing when it was exposed publicly by Caroline.
Caroline immediately apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I didn’t want to hurt you. I just said it casually, but what I said is the truth, right?” I stared at her with cold eyes. At this moment, I knew how powerful this woman was. Although she looked so weak on the outside, in fact, every word she said was stuck in my heart. She was a very powerful character.
Caroline said, “Did he tell you what he did during the week he left?” “What do you want to say?” I was not that stupid. She must have her purpose for asking this question. Caroline chuckled and continued to say in a gentle tone, “I’ve been living in Europe for years. I’m very stupid. I caused a lot of trouble there. This time, he went there to help me deal with it.”
No wonder he said he was going on a business trip to Europe. Actually, the Wharton Group didn’t have any business in Europe. It turned out that he went there for the sake of the person in front of me. I completely believed him and didn’t think about it at all.
Caroline turned her head to look at the enormous glass window. She seemed to be recalling the events of the past. “Our family has a very good relationship with the Wharton Family We grew up together, and in high school and university, we were classmates. Thus, naturally, we were together And at that time, both families were very satisfied. After all, our family backgrounds were similar The word “family background” immediately made me feel uncomfortable. Not only was there a huge difference between his family background and mine, but there was also no intersection between our previous lives. I didn’t expect that Caroline and Herbert had grown up together
