Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 39

Although she hated Clarissa for stealing her husband, the fact was that Antonio actually liked her sister, and she married Antonio because of an accident.

In Adelaide's heart, she had always felt that she was the one who stole the man from her sister. This was why she was so tolerant of her. Now Antonio seemed to have feelings for her as well, how could Adelaide not get excited?

Therefore, she did not want to get involved in the fake pregnancy anymore!

Hanna, however, looked at the whole situation more thoroughly than she did. She tapped rhythmically on the balcony,

"Clarissa is robbing your husband right now and she dares to fake a pregnancy to trick him into living out there. What if they get together again?

What will you do when they really have a baby?

Are you going to leave Antonio?”

Her words made Adelaide upset.

Of course, she hoped Antonio only loved her. She could even lie to herself that she did not care about it when she could not get his heart at first.

However, when she truly felt his care towards her now, how could Adelaide let the chance slip away for the second time?

Just at this moment, the door was opened. Jerry came in through the door with a long face.

He came straight to Adelaide and asked seriously, "Did Antonio cheat on you?"

Though he said it in a questioning tone, he was sure about it and believe in what he heard.

Startled, Adelaide stood up and was about to explain before Jerry waved his hand and snapped out.

"I heard it all outside the door, so you and Antonio were all acting when I visited last time?"

He already noticed that something was off between the two of them, but he never expected his own friend to be so unaware of his blessed happiness with such a great wife. Even though he knew that he had no chance with Adelaide anymore, he could not help feeling bad for her now.

Adelaide was afraid that she would damage Antonio’s relationship with his friend, so hurriedly explained,

"No, no, Antonio has always been in love with Clarissa. It's only because of an accident that he ended up marrying me."

He had always known who Antonio liked, so Jerry frowned, wondering why she thought that Antonio liked Clarissa.

He still remembered Antonio saying that he did not like Clarissa, but when he heard Adelaide’s words, he was a bit shocked! Is that so?

On his face that was usually playful and smiling, Jerry frowned with a rarely serious expression,

"Stop it, cheating is cheating, Antonio is too much. Sister-in-law, don't worry, I heard everything you said, didn't you want to test whether Clarissa is pregnant or not?

I'm good at this!"

He stomped at his chest and promised, feeling unfair for Adelaide inside. How many posh wives would still cook and pour tea for guests themselves?

Actually, since the first time he saw her, he knew that he was charmed. She was so gentle, considerate, and understanding with a smile that was as warm as a winter sun.

She was the one who made his floating heart want to settle down and she was also the one who gave him a warm feeling of a family. She was such a good woman. Jerry squinted his eyes. His clenched fists declared his anger. He knew that she was the wife of his best friend, so he would not think about impossible things with her, but he would not tolerate anyone bullying her, not even Antonio!

Clarissa sat on the sofa at home. The person standing next to her was Damla. Clarissa smilingly held Damla’s hand and let her sit by her side,

"Damla, thank you so much for today, or else my child would have been murdered by them!"

“Never mind, Miss Clarissa. If it wasn't for you, I would have… lost my grandson!"

said Damla who was crying like pouring rain.

A disgusted expression appeared on Clarissa’s face as Damla lowered her head to cry. That look disappeared so fast that even if Damla were staring at her for the whole time, she would think that she saw the wrong expression.

Immediately, Clarissa tapped on Damla's back as she tenderly handed her the tissue paper,

"It's okay.

As long as your grandson is okay, the money is not a big deal, and if you need more money for the hospital, you must tell me."

Damla’s grandson was born with a heart disease, which cost tens of thousands of dollars. Though Antonio had never treated Damla badly on the salary, she used all her money on her son’s house and car already.

At first, she thought she could stop worrying after his marriage and even thought of resigning to stay at home to take care of her pregnant daughter-in-law, but she was not needed since her daughter-in-law was staying with her parents. On the other side, after she took care of Antonio for more than a decade, she no longer saw him as a simple employer, but treated him like her own son.

A year later, the baby was born, but he was diagnosed with congenital heart disease. Ever since then he was so fragile that even breastfeeding was a problem in the first few days of his life.

After that, he got sick very easily, and had to be hospitalized for more than ten days.

When the family's savings were depleted, Damla was glad that she did not quit her job and worked even harder from then on to save money for her grandson's surgery.
