"Everything between us is due to a misunderstanding..."
Consuela said indifferently, her black and white eyes rolling. An obscure smile curled up the corners of her mouth.
"You didn't do it on your own. You've been unhappy?" Cassie turned to look at the woman and asked in an uncomfortable voice.
The woman fell silent, her eyes falling on somewhere, motionless. The tear stains still looked extremely pitiful, as if she had been bullied for no reason.
The sight of this woman's pitiful face darkened Cassie's heart. She used to stand in that man's position before, and even when he was sick, she accused her of doing something wrong. Now it seemed she was a wise woman who would protect herself from danger. So she would never do anything against him.
She was not stupid. Sometimes she was also extremely rational. But she was forced to be like this because she had no ability.
"That bastard, he not only looks good at attracting women, but also an unworthy bastard." Cassie spat and stared at Consuela. She couldn't believe what she saw when she thought of Richie's abstinent face.
Startled by her angry voice, Consuela slightly frowned and pulled back Cassie who was about to go out to argue with the man. Her voice was still trembling, "Don't be impulsive. Let's have a talk first."
"In fact, it's not bad like what you think. It's just a deal."
"A deal is equal to each other or both can make profits. Then what can you get?"
In the face of Cassie's aggressiveness, Consuela couldn't answer a word. She could only get the child, no, not sure.
The woman was a little helpless. With tears on her face, she didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. Generally speaking, she should have received a lot of comfort?
Why did she tell her not to do something impulsive at this time?
Cassie shook off her hands and strode forward. She took off her clothes and said, "I won't let him off easily today. It's not what a man should do in a shotgun marriage!"
She really took Consuela as her friend. That was why after she heard what she had been told, she became more unreasonable and wanted to vent her anger on him.
"You say we are friends, but have you ever thought about what that man would think of me if you blame him or beat him up? What are the consequences of waiting for me? "
She was pregnant with that man's baby, so she might be fine for the time being, but if the child was born, or how could she face him in the future?
Her words dumbfounded Cassie. Her anger was put out by the cold water. Turning to look at the pale woman standing on the ground, she apologized, "I'm sorry, Consuela. I just don't feel well..."
"You didn't do anything wrong. What are you sorry for?" She smiled as she rubbed her face, "I'm too selfish to tell you this. Now I just hope you don't have any burden."
It was she, Consuela, herself who couldn't help saying out these words hidden in the bottom of her heart. She didn't expect that Cassie, as a listener, would have such a big reaction.
In other words, she always thought that this person was on the side of Richie, and she never really believed her.
Looking at her forced smile, Cassie nodded with a straight face and threw out a word, "Okay."
How could it be possible that she had no burden.
But she could do nothing.
