Chapter 164
The air in the office suddenly quieted down. Eliza stared blankly at the man in front of her, her heart tightening. He… What he meant was that… she was different from Chasity in his heart, wasn’t it? “The fish today is delicious.” Sitting on the sofa, Beau held his chopsticks and elegantly ate. “Chasity and I were just an accident.” “We had no feelings for each other. It was only because I was drunk that the incident happened.” “I didn’t expect her to be pregnant with Braint and Demarion after just one attempt.” “I haven’t seen her since she walked into the wrong room.” “The second time I saw her was also the last time.” “At that time, Elias called me and told me that he had found her. He also said that she was waiting for me at the hospital with two children.” Hearing his low and deep voice, Eliza’s hands tightly squeezed together. Beau glanced at her with his profound eyes and said, “I was more shocked than surprised.” “As a result, as soon as I got off the plane and arrived at the hospital, I was told that she had gone crazy due to postpartum depression and burned down the hospital.” “Fortunately, she was the only patient in the hospital at that time.” “I took the two children away. When I went back to save her, the fire had turned into a sea of fire. Elias was afraid that I couldn’t come back if I went in, so he held me back by force.” He said as he took a sip of soup. “Eliza, I hope you can understand that Chasity has never been my lover, and she and I have never been in love.” “But you are.” Eliza’s heart tensed up again because of his words. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she couldn’t say anything. “But for me, Chasity is indeed important. Without her, I would not have two lovely sons.” “If she hadn’t died, I would have been willing to marry her and take responsibility for her life.” After that, he put the soup bowl down. “But there is no such if.” “You don’t have to doubt my feelings for you because of someone else’s words, okay?” His words were both sultry and sincere. Eliza’s heart trembled slightly. After a while, she bit her lips. “There is one more thing I want to know…” “If it is really as you said, that I am so important to you…” “Yesterday, when you went to visit Chasity, why did you go alone? Why didn’t you bring Braint, Demarion, or me.” This was another reason why she felt that she was not important to him besides the misleading of Joye and Lucija… He didn’t take her with him.
Not only did he not bring her along, he also did not tell her. She always felt that if they really loved each other, he should let her be involved in his life and his past. Beau laughed bitterly. He turned around and knocked on Eliza’s head. “Did you forget something?” Eliza’s little face wrinkled, “What is it?” Beau coughed softly, and there was a hint of amusement in his voice. “The night before, you were tortured by me for a long time.” “You only fell asleep in the next morning. Did you forget that?” Eliza was stunned. That night, the memories of her being turned around to different positions by him suddenly flooded into her mind. Her face instantly turned red! That night… she was indeed tortured by him. By the time he finally let go of her, it was already three or four o’clock in the morning. She fell asleep in a daze. When she woke up again, it was time for lunch. Beau shrugged his shoulders when he saw that she had recalled the past. “I saw you sleeping so soundly, so I didn’t disturb you.” “I think we still have a long way to go. As for Chasity, you will know it sooner or later.” “Even if you didn’t go this time, there is still plenty of chances in the future.” However, he didn’t expect that his little wife would be misled by such a clumsy method. Eliza bit her lip. So that was it… She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and shyly raised her hand to pull his sleeve. “I’m sorry.” He was so kind and serious to her that he was even willing to take the initiative to hold a press conference to announce their relationship.
- But she… misunderstood him and complained about him because of a few words from
others. “It’s all right.” Beau smiled faintly. “Actually, before what happened yesterday, they have not mentioned Chasity for many years. “I used to want to make it up to Chasity. I tried my best to find Chasity’s relatives. They always said that they had taken care of Chasity’s family, so they asked me not to intervene.” “Since Chasity died, Lucija has been avoiding talking about her.” “I even doubted whether Chasity is still alive and it was the two of them who didn’t want me to find her.” “But you could actually get them to take the initiative to mention her.” “It means that they have already realized that they can’t find any way to make you sad except for Chasity.” “Otherwise, why would they use a dead person to make a fuss?” Beau’s words made Eliza suddenly understand soemthing. “Do you think that… Chasity may still be alive?” “That’s right.” After finishing the last mouthful of rice, Beau put down his chopsticks. “If she’s really dead, why did they have to keep it a secret?” “A dead person, even if I know more about her, is still a dead person. She will not come back to life, let alone pose a threat to anyone.” Eliza frowned. “Then what if… she is really alive?” “Do you want to find her?”. “I don’t think so.”
His voice was cold and low. “Even if she is alive, she never comes back to visit Braint and Demarion.” “No matter what her difficulties are, she should not hide from me and skip visiting the children.” “Why should I look for a woman who doesn’t even want her own kids?” Eliza’s hands were tightly clenched together. For some reason, Beau’s words made her feel uncomfortable. She really wanted to defend Chasity and explain that Chasity should not be that kind of woman.
