Chapter 461
I pondered this for a while, but I just couldn’t get it. Finally, I decided not to contemplate this annoying problem any longer. Turning around, I looked for Eric, but he was long gone.
Assuming he should have gone first, I hit the gas and crawled forward. However, I didn’t see him even after walking quite a distance so I called him but no one answered either. So I wanted to ask around, but the people here were basically German. Not only were there few people, they also didn’t speak English.
I had never felt such distress in my entire life. Having no other recourse, I could only call him again, but he just didn’t pick up despite the call. A bolt of fury shot through me. It was his idea to come here, so what did he mean by leaving me here alone and walking away? Is he bragging about the fact that I don’t speak German? It’s okay, I’m not looking for him anymore! Sullenly, I retraced my steps, planning to ride my bike back into town and look for
someone who spoke English.
Soon I arrived at the spot where Eric and I had left our bikes. The bikes were at the side of the road, while Eric was lying under a tree with a blade of grass in his mouth, looking up at the sky. Upon seeing him, an inexplicable relief flooded through me and I walked towards him. “What’s wrong with you?”
“What do you mean?” He sat up and looked at me.
“Why did you suddenly disappear and make me look everywhere for you?”
“Weren’t you whispering sweet nothings to your husband? How did it occur to you to look for me?” He looked at me with disdain.
“You don’t have to make it sound so disgusting. Should I just let his call go to voicemail?”
“If you really didn’t want to take the call, you have every reason not to.” Eric scoffed. Then he fished his cell phone out of his pocket and placed it in front of me.
“What is the meaning of this?”
“You can check how many missed calls I had these last few days.”
With that, my anger rose. “You are a tool!”
“What is that supposed to mean?” He stared at me.
“Did you know I was very worried about you earlier? I called you several times-”
“Were you worried about me? Save! You hid to answer the call and even stayed there in a world of your own for so long after the call ended. Only a fool would believe you were worried about me! ”
“I wasn’t in a world of my own! I was just contemplating…” At that, I hesitated and stopped.
“What were you thinking? Why did you stop mid-sentence?”
“Carson called and asked who I’m with now. His voice was extremely
“Worried he’ll find out you’re with me?” Eric broke the blade, so I was a little worried.”

“I know such a thought was ridiculous, but my mind just couldn’t stop thinking about it.
“Do you feel like you’re having an affair when you’re with me with that hand?” Eric looked at me with disdain.
“It’s a fact that I’m still married,” I replied in a whisper.
“Then just get divorced, and

“I can’t get divorced now.”

earlier.”
you’re always worried your husband will show up and catch you red-handed
As soon as my words reached him, Eric frowned. “Lilian Hawkins, tell me honestly – are you still in love with your bastard husband?”
“No.”
“Why do you insist so much on getting revenge on him if you don’t love him? People say that hate is as strong as love. ”
“No, I don’t love him anymore!”
“Prove it then!”
