His answer is like a hammer hitting me heavily and I stand there dumbfounded.
What Hilda said is true?
Did Frances marry Hilda?
I don't care if they got married at home or abroad, or if their marriage is recognized at home or not. In my opinion, their marriage is real.
They have a child.
How am I supposed to accept this?
Why don't I know all of this before I am devoted to him?
I stare blankly at Frances, unable to say a word for a long time.
All of this is too hard for me to accept.
"Jane, tell me, did she come looking for you? What did she tell you?"
Frances walks over and looks at me anxiously.
I pulled out a bitter smile and whispered, "What else could she say? She told me that you are married and have a child. Frances, who am I to you? Did you marry her before or after Whitney? Am I a home wrecker?"
It's so ironic and so funny.
I can't help but laugh. However, tears fall from the corner of my eyes.
I am painful.
I don't know what to do.
If Frances tells me that he loves Hilda, can I leave without hesitation?
