Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 536

Chapter 536

Recalling what Angela’s friend Kirsten had said, he finally understood why she had been so devastated by a failed marriage, and why she couldn’t let go.

Because she had already staked everything on it.

“I’m sorry, Barney… I deceived you. I wanted to restart my career in Goldmont City… all for my husband…”

Angela gritted her teeth and let all pretense drop.

“I know what I did is despicable, but I just wanted to be with the person I loved, to give our child a complete family.

“I gave everything. That’s why… I… I really can’t accept it.”

Her words faltered, her eyes reddening. She felt both wronged and furious, pressing her hands to her face as tears spilled uncontrollably.

And Trey… the man who had almost ruined her entire life, in the end, had chosen Khloe.

“‘Cannot accept’-those words are an unfillable void. Your greatest mistake was loving the wrong person, yet insisting on following your heart blindly. Do you think nothing matters but love? That dignity, principles, family, friends—none of that matters?”

Barney’s tone sharpened, heavy with restrained anger.

He hadn’t wanted to lecture her. But seeing Angela sink into despair like this, he couldn’t hold back.

Angela remained silent. She pressed her hands against her thighs, looking down.

“Angela,” Barney said, frowning, “do you really believe that winning back a man who doesn’t love you, who only knew how to use you and reduce you to nothing, is your best choice? That this is your duty as a mother to your child?”

Angela could accept failure-but she could not accept being judged like this. Her parents had no right, and neither did Barney.

Yet, his words pierced through her haze.

As Pete’s mother, she could not simply give up.

Trey had betrayed her. She would never forgive him. If love could not continue, then hate would carry her forward.

Her nails dug into her palms. Tears glimmered in her eyes as she looked up at Barney again.

“You’re right. I’ve been foolish beyond measure, I’ve made too many terrible mistakes… I hate myself for them! But now… even if I want to repent, I have no chance left…”

“You do have a chance.”

Seeing her, Barney realized he had spoken too harshly.

A woman blinded by love could lose all reason.

And after years with that vile man, her sense of judgment had been warped, her instincts dulled.

They say that even the most hateful people have points of pity. Angela’s life had been almost entirely destroyed by that family. Could she not be more miserable than anyone?

Barney exhaled softly, his voice gentling. “As long as you are willing, it is never too late to correct your mistakes. You can always start over.”

“Barney…”

Seizing the moment, Angela dropped to her knees before him.

Barney was startled, reaching out to steady her-but Angela resisted, grabbing onto his pant leg.
