After signing the agreement, Jenna intentionally avoided Rhys.
Rhys quickly realized this and asked with some confusion, "Jenna, did I do something wrong? Why do I feel like you're avoiding me?"
These days he had been thinking about what to do next for the two of them.
Now he had thought it through and was very clear about it. He doesn't hate Jenna, and even has a little bit of affection for her. Perhaps, as time goes by, they will gradually fall in love.
"We are already married, so let's just live a happy life together. As for that three-month agreement, forget about it."
"What?" Jenna didn't expect him to say that and was momentarily caught off guard. "Have you been through something recently? Why would you suddenly change your attitude?"
At the beginning, he really disliked her and didn't even want to be in the same room with her. Even if she had been drugged, he still wouldn't have wanted to have sex with her.
What is going on right now?
"I wasn't really affected by anything, I just thought about it carefully. My mother made a lot of sense. I'm at an age where it's time to settle down. Since we're married now, I'll take responsibility for you," Rhys shook his head.
This time, no one forced him. It was his own decision.
Maybe it'd been too long since he was single, but now he suddenly yearned for family life. After work every day, he could play with his children and chat with his wife about what happened that day. It was also very interesting.
"But I don't want to, Rhys. Have you forgotten our original agreement? I don't want to go back on my word. We're going to divorce anyway, and if you're afraid of our mother not accepting it, then we can wait a little longer." Jenna looked into his eyes and refused without hesitation.
She now truly understands the phrase "life is unpredictable".
She never thought that Rhys would actually change his mind.
If this had been brought up earlier, she would have agreed and tried her best. But now, she is pregnant with that man's child.
Even an ordinary man cannot accept raising someone else's child, let alone Rhys.
There was never really any love between them, and with this incident happening, it's best for them to just part ways.
He couldn't understand why things had turned out this way and couldn't help but ask, "Can you give me a reason? Did I do something wrong or what? I'm not joking, I really want to be with you."
For the first time, he entertained the idea of living together with a woman.
He was 100% sure that he was serious and there was no hint of joking in his words.
"Because we're not a good match. You're Mr. Williams from a wealthy family while I'm just an ordinary woman from a regular family. We won't be happy together, Rhys. Please, just let me go," Jenna pushed him away and walked out.
As she closed the door behind her, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She kept asking herself over and over again why all the hardships had to come her way. Why couldn't God just leave her alone?
