Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1830

At first, Cathy had assumed that Shirley decided to stay because Shirley still had feelings for Carter.

She had not expected Shirley’s decision to be predicated on such considerations.

Nevertheless, Cathy remained concerned.

“But if you don’t go home, Adam will not see you and be worried.”

Hearing Cathy’s words, Shirley raised her head and looked ahead. There was a gust of fresh spring breeze, and the corner of Shirley’s lips seemed to quirk up.

An unusually gentle smile adorned her face.

“I know he’s actually very worried about me. He always had a soft heart and had looked after me without letting me know. But I must pay the  price for my  sins. It’s time  to stop  troubling  my brother.”

When Shirley spoke, her tone was peaceful, as opposed  to the hostility she had when facing Adam.

At this point, Cathy began to feel that Shirley was not a cold-hearted person.

In fact, Shirley cared.

“You don’t have to tell Adam anything. Just let him assume I sneaked out by myself.”

“Why won’t you let me tell him the truth?” Cathy was baffled.

Shirley smiled brightly. Despite the visible scar on the right side of her face, her smile was exceptionally pure at that moment.

“It’s not necessary. Just let him think I’m that kind of person. It’d make more sense then. I’ve said everything I needed to say. Be careful on your way back.”

“Since you have everything thought out, I’ll just follow your instructions. I won’t say anything, ” Cathy agreed. Cathy then looked at Shirley, “Take care of yourself.”

Cathy turned around after she had finished speaking.

However, before she could even take a single step, Shirley’s voice came from behind.

“Cathy.”

Shirley called out to her.
