"You're kind of like Bonnie..." Brooketold me.
Was he blind? I was like the girl in the picture at all, even my hair
"It's not the physical resemblance, it's the fact that you're both recognizable and easy to get into hearts."
I swore I didn't like the insight of Brooke when he spoke. I didn't like to be seen through.
I put the photo in my pockets. I wanted to know exactly what happened.
I can't only hear what Brooke said.
I would not rely on my immature judgment alone to conclude that what Calvin did for me was just to use me as a cover to refuse the marriage of the Dixon Family.
I would like to put it frankly.
I didn’t believe it. I didn’t want to believe it.
I did not believe that Calvin was thinking of Bonnie at every moment he face me.
I didn't believe he resisted with the Knight Family for a week, then pulled open the skylight railing with his bare hands and ran out and hugged me tightly in my hotel room.
All this was false.
If so, he was just an unprofessional actor who added to his own drama.
I pulled open the door and walked out of the living room.
Calvin was waiting for me at the end of the corridor.
I could tell by the way he looked that he had no idea what Brooke was talking about.
"Josephine, you..."
Before he could finish, I pulled out the picture from my pocket and held it under his nose. "This woman is your lover, isn't she?"
I looked into his eyes. Even if he would act and hide, his eyes can not deceive me.
Seeing the expression of Calvin, I knew Brooke was not lying to me.
I slipped the picture into his hand and smiled faintly. "Do you love her very much?"
"Josephine..." He grabbed my wrist. "What did my brother say to you?"
"You go and ask him." I broke off his fingers and had one more thing to ask him, “The baby in my belly isn't yours, is it?"
He looked at me very quietly, very quietly, and I felt that he had become a piece of wood.
His handsome features were enveloped in an indecipherable sadness, but he did not contradict, and my heart went cold.
“If you know from beginning to end that you are not the father of my child, why do you admit it?”
“You want to find him a father, don't you?"
“I never thought of finding a father for him, because I never wanted him to be born at first. It's only because of you that he has lived so long in my belly, that he has grown so big, and you made me have to give him birth!” I yelled at him, completely out of my mind.
I didn't think it was great that I had to have a baby once I was pregnant.
I didn't have the ability to give him a sound family, a good growth environment. To have a child rashly was irresponsible.
So I never intended to have him ben born in the first place.
It was only because of Calvin that he was unimpassable to me, and he convinced me that he was the father of my child, that I let down all my defenses.
I was such a self-protective person that I looked back every few steps when I went out at night.
But now, I was sold by my husband, and then cheated by this man.
