Chapter 733 Regret
After getting into the car, Jennifer glared at June. “Why did you say I was pregnant with your child just now?”
“You didn’t object when I said that, no?” June replied in a nonchalant tone as he started driving. Jennifer was furious, but she had nothing to defend herself with.
“Jennifer, don’t tell me that you still miss him. Don’t expect him to fall in love with you. You’ve been pursuing him for two years and yet he did not fall in love with you, not to mention that you have lost your chastity. Think about the video of your naked body. Do you think he will still accept you?” June was undoubtedly rubbing salt on Jennifer’s wound.
Jennifer’s expression darkened at once. “What do you mean by that, June?”
“You heard me. Both of us have become celebrities in the video. When I went to talk business, many partners deliberately asked me how it felt to bed you, and they also asked me whether you and I were really a couple. I know that the Chanaeans still attach great importance to the reputation of women, so I think it’s probably impossible for you and Mr. Scott to be together. After all, he, too, comes from a wealthy family,” June said calmly.
Jennifer had called him a piece of trash earlier, so that was his little revenge. He wanted Jennifer to know the state she was in. With the video of her naked body being released, she was now the most famous person in Tayhaven. There was no way the upper class would want to marry her. However, there were still many wealthy people who wanted her. After all, she had a good appearance, a good family background, and good abilities. It would not be a bad idea to accept Jennifer and keep her at home.

“I know the state I’m in, so there’s no need for you to remind me. Besides, don’t be too happy. If my life is miserable, it will be the same for you too. I heard that Mr. Yard is already dissatisfied with you, and he doesn’t even want Cassie to have too much contact with you. You’d better be careful or all your efforts would be in vain.”
June responded with a snort and said nothing.
Jennifer leaned against the car seat. There was an emptiness in her eyes and what felt like a void in her heart.
Indeed, no matter how much she had loved Carter, many things had happened in less than a year. There was a gap between her and Carter that could not be crossed. Regardless of what had happened to her mother, the video of her was enough to make her stop, not to mention Carter still did not love her.
Jennifer couldn’t help but laugh self-deprecatingly. Her heart ached slightly when she thought of Carter’s appearance. However, on second thought, she thought that this might be the best ending for her and Carter—each going their own way.
Jennifer was distracted, and so was Carter, who was in the ward.
“Carr, Carr,” Eleanor called out when she saw that he was in a daze.
Carter came back to his senses. He forced a smile and said, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Hutton. I was lost in my thoughts.”
“Are you too tired from work? If you are, go back and get some rest. I’m happy that you have to heart to visit me,” Eleanor said softly.
Carter looked at Eleanor, who looked exactly like Amelia. A little dazed, he subconsciously shook his head.
Eleanor asked worriedly, “Are you all right? Does your head hurt?”
“I’m fine, Mrs. Hutton. I just think you and Amelia look very similar. You look just like her biological sister.”
“My daughters all look like me, but Lia more so. She is a replica of me when I was younger. If I had the photos of me when I was younger, I would have shown them to you.”
“You’re not old, Mrs. Hutton.”
“I’m already in my sixties. How am I not old? Besides, I have a malignant brain tumor now, and I will look older when all my hair falls out. But I don’t have any regrets now. I’m satisfied as long as I can see that Lia is doing well,” said Eleanor with a casual smile.
Carter shook off the muddled thoughts in his mind and said, “You really have a good attitude, Mrs. Hutton. There are very few people who are so positive when they’re sick. You are very similar to Amelia in this regard. When I met her at the university, I thought she was a very simple and lovely girl. She wasn’t just beautiful, but she was also very talented in design. If not for… I think she would have been an internationally renowned designer by now.”
“What happened?” Eleanor caught the main point.
Carter smiled and avoided giving a direct answer. “Mrs. Hutton, I’m going to see if Amelia is back.”
Eleanor glanced at him suspiciously and asked, “Carter, you used to like Lia, didn’t you?”
Carter paused in his tracks upon hearing that. However, he didn’t hide it. “Yes, Mrs. Hutton. I thought about marrying her, but then there was a little misunderstanding. After that, I was separated from her for several years, and when we met again, she was already married for a long time. Maybe it’s just fate.”
Wisely changing the subject, Eleanor asked, “Then do you have a girlfriend? You are good in every aspect, so you should also like someone who’s on the same level as you, right?”
Carter fell into a trance. He couldn’t help thinking of Jennifer, who had just left him with June.
He smiled bitterly and replied, “There was a girl who had been pursuing me desperately for two years, but I didn’t know how to cherish her love. She has left now, and she is with another man.”
“Does that man truly love her?”
Does June truly love her?
He remembered the information of June that he had previously investigated. June’s relationships are very complicated, and he is entangled with many women. More importantly, he has been with Cassie for eight years, so how can such a man be sincere to Jennifer?
“What’s the matter? Is he not good to her? If she’s not doing well, and you two still have feelings for each other, then I think you should fight for it. You’ve already missed Amelia. Are you going to regret it again this time?” Eleanor asked earnestly.
She had a lot of experience and had enjoyed endless wealth. After material satisfaction, all women wanted was a sincere relationship, unless those women were ones who had been wasting their lives fooling around.
Carter fell into deep thought.
