"Bess, listen to me. We have been good friends for so many years. You should trust me. I won't hurt you."
Seeing that Nancy was so considerate, Bess said as if she had made up her mind, "I know that in this world, besides my parents, you care about me the most. I'll listen to you. I'll resign from the company as soon as possible, and I won't have any contact with this person from now on..."
Hearing Bess's words, Nancy breathed a long sigh of relief. She was afraid that Bess would go back on her words. After all, no one was sure about feelings.
"If that man really loves you, he will definitely come over. I don't know why you like such a selfish man."
Thinking of the question her good friend asked, Bess recalled every detail she had with this man.
She also told Nancy, "You don't know how much he cares about me. I liked him before, but he never showed his love to me. I don't know what's going on recently, he has been pursuing me fiercely. He said that he wanted to be with me, and I am the one he loves most."
"Did he tell you that he didn't have any feelings for his wife, they were married just because of interests?"
Hearing this, Bess asked in surprise, "How do you know? It seems that you were listening to us when we were talking."
"I didn't hear your conversation, but I know these are all men's ways to flirt with women, not to mention a man like him who married a woman he doesn't like for benefits. How much can you hope him to love you?"
Although Nancy's words were full of irony to that man, Bess thought what she said was reasonable.
She took a deep breath and said, "I know. It seems that I have a deeper understanding of him. Don't worry. I have a bottom line. I will never be a mistress."
"That's my good friend. If you have anything, you have to tell me, I will support you." Nancy said with a smile.
She gave a thumb up and stuck it with Bess's, which was the usual gesture of the two of them, indicating that the two of them were working hard together.
At this time, Bess swept away the sad expression on her face just now, picked up food with chopsticks and said, "Don't be sad. Hurry up to eat, or it will be cold."
Nancy also noticed that Bess forced a smile. No one could get used to it at once.
After all, that man was also perfect in Bess's eyes.
However, Nancy didn't expose Bess's mask. Everyone had her most vulnerable side. Although they were good friends, they also had self-esteem in front of each other.
With a glass of red wine in her hand, Nancy said, "Come on, cheers for our friendship. Cheers for you to forget that bad man. It's a good thing for you to see him through earlier."
"Yes, it's a good thing for me. I don't want to suffer losses from this person. It will be too late to regret at that time." Bess raised her glass obediently.
The two looked at each other and drank all the wine in the glasses. When they put down the glass, the two of them smiled.
The reason why Nancy smiled was that her best friend didn't fall into the hands of that scum.
The reason why Bess smiled was that she had held the last line, or she would regret all her life.
