Reading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind
Chapter 129 Who Knew He Could Be So Unhinged

Finished
In their eagerness to get the latest gossip, the Quirk family dawdled and stalled for time, reluctant to leave the backstage.
Gordon presented Mrs. Gonzales with a divorce agreement, officially proposing a divorce. She was so upset that she ended up admitted to the hospital, which is why she didn’t come after him tonight. But, really, Gordon. Aren’t you being utterly ridiculous? Your wife is still lying at the hospital, yet here he is, proposing marriage to someone else. You usually act all sanctimonious. Who knew you could be so unhinged?
The Quirks: This is outrageous!
What a disaster. So, it turns out that Rebecca mustered the courage to explain the tuation to Mrs. Gonzales yesterday. Although the latter had appeared skeptical, she had felt a fleeting moment of doubt in her heart after she went home. However, upon returning home, seeing the divorce agreement, and a few words later, the innocent Rebecca was dragged back into the conflict. Gordon, for Rebecca to meet you, she must’ve committed numerous misdeeds in her past life.
A twitch tugged at the corners of Isabella’s mouth.
Meanwhile, the Quirk family was left utterly speechless after hearing all that. Indeed, the situation seemed more like one trying to make enemies instead of seeking an alliance through marriage.
Oh! And the reason for the swift marriage proposal is because Gordon was provoked by what his wife said…
The Quirks: How so?
Heh! As it turns out, Mrs. Gonzales had also noticed that Rebecca doesn’t love Gordon at all. Gordon refuses to believe it, though. He’s convinced he has a place in her heart and thinks he can see it in her eyes when they’re acting. Don’t be so delusional, dude!
Christopher: Come on, she’s an actress. Is there an issue if she acts as though she has feelings for you during a scene?
Gordon genuinely believes that Rebecca–a woman in her twenties–admires him as an elegant, capable, and cultured man in his forties who takes good care of himself. This is because she often approaches him of her own accord to seek his advice on acting with an unmistakable sincerity in her eyes that’s nothing like the perfunctory manner she displays toward other men. Thus, he’s convinced that she isn’t leading him on but has real feelings for him. I have to say that I’ve observed Rebecca interacting sincerely with other professional actors who aren’t covetous of her beauty. She takes the initiative to approach them when she has questions or needs guidance. Could it be possible that you faked it so well in the beginning that she mistook you for a gentleman?
David: So, you’ve been delusional all this time. Just because a junior colleague seeks your advice, you think they’re in love with you? If I thought like that, can you imagine how many admirers I’d have had before 1
retired?
It’s just a case of Gordon secretly lusting after her beauty, yet refusing to admit to it! Dere all this, he insists he hasn’t fallen out of love with his wife. He claims the love faded a long time ago, and the lack of marital intimacy for several years is proof because his wife no longer sparks any desire in him as a man.
Selena: That statement is the greatest insult to a couple who has been married for a long time. Is it possible
that it’s because you’re impotent?

It was Rebecca’s arrival that made his heart feel full, allowing him to experience love and the vibrancy of life anew. Once he had feelings for her, he was willing to give her anything she desired, no matter the cos He was prepared to face all of society’s criticisms for the sake of being with the woman he loves.
Evian: Good heavens! Did you even bother asking Rebecca what she wants?
It’s no wonder Mrs. Gonzales was livid, but no matter how angry she was, she shouldn’t have hurled such insults at Rebecca. She should’ve directed her rage at her husband instead.
Those from the Quirk family agreed. Indeed, you attacked the wrong person, madam!
What kind of a vicious cycle is this? The nastier Mrs. Gonzales‘ insults become, the more Gordon defends Rebecca to the point that he starts berating his wife. Consequently, Mrs. Gonzales‘ hatred for Rebecca will only intensify. This escalating animosity is just too much. Seriously, can they stop dragging others into their twisted game?
Everyone from the Quirk family was at a loss for words
Why does it sound so awkward? Something seems off. What the f*ck! Isn’t that from a dialogue we cut during rehearsals? It’s similar to what the man says when he tries to persuade the courtesan to turn over a new leaf. In that scene, the man, believing that he’s saving a fallen woman, portrays himself as righteous and selfless. In reality, however, he’s just basking in the sense of superiority and salvation of changing someone’s fate.
Both Christopher and Rosalie remembered that part of the plot. In the end the man
