Chapter 148
"That's right! Catalina, you are indeed a slut. Only Mr. Warren is foolish enough to fall for someone like you over and over again!"
"Exactly! We should have known your true colors four years ago! Now, Mr. Warren has become the laughingstock of the entire Sayton because of you! Get out, leave Ink Villa now!"
The maids were so agitated that they even started pushing Catalina.
Catalina stumbled backward from the pushing.
"What are you all doing?"
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from the corridor in the front hall.
All the maids immediately restrained their arrogance and lowered their heads, "Mr. Warren."
"Dismiss now!"
Warren commended with a dark expression while pushing his wheelchair in.
"Yes..."
The maids all left together.
Before leaving, they didn't forget to warn Catalina with a stern glare.
Catalina didn't feel much about their bad attitude toward her.
She could even understand their protective behavior, after all, she had indeed repeatedly disappointed Warren's affection.
"Warren."
Catalina called out guiltily.
Warren sat in his wheelchair, looking at her from a distance.
In his eyes, there was no longer the warmth of the past but a distant coldness.
"Are you here to pack your things?"
Catalina shook her head, then nodded.
Yes, but not entirely.
Her main purpose in coming was to apologize.
"I'm sorry."
Catalina half-bowed and earnestly apologized to Warren, "I know that those words may mean nothing to you, and they can't ease any of your pain, but... I still want to apologize. I'm truly, truly sorry..."
"Is that all?"
Warren chuckled. He shook his head and said, "Catalina, that's not nearly enough."
"Yes, I know it's not enough."
But she didn't know what else she could do to alleviate his pain.
Warren's large hand held his shrunk-long leg and said, "Catalina, look at my legs. This is the pain Bennett brought upon me! I admit I married you with ulterior motives. I wanted Bennett to taste the bitterness of loss as how I felt, but I underestimated your feelings toward him. However, this pain can't be taken away with just an apology."
"What else do you expect me to do for you?"
Those legs were something that Catalina and Bennett had to pay for.
Catalina knew that as long as Warren didn't recover, she couldn't clear her guilt.
But was it even possible for him to recover?
"I want you to help me disable Bennett's legs as well."
Warren's tone was casual as if he was talking about the weather.
Because he said it too casually, it made Catalina break out in a cold sweat and said, "Warren, this joke is not funny at all!"
Warren sneered, turned away from Catalina, and turned his back to her. He said, "Just go! Every debt has its debtor. Whoever owes the debt should repay it. As for you... you're just an insignificant pawn! If you want to blame someone, blame Carolyn! I... I don't have much affection for you. Since you have made your choice, you should bear the consequences."
After Warren finished speaking, he left.
Leaving Catalina standing there, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
What did he mean by his words?
Every debt had its debtor.
What was the debt he mentioned? And who owed the debt?
Moreover, saying she was just an insignificant pawn, what did that mean?
Was Catalina being set up in some scheme? And what was this so-called scheme?
Was Carolyn the one who set up that scheme?
Catalina was completely bewildered.
