Chapter 479
He might look like a gentleman, but he was quite wicked as a person.
And the way he spoke with Sapphire made her so angry!
After she got married to Conrad, he had never spoken with her in that kind of tone in front of his relatives and friends.
“If he’s not worthy enough, then I’m done for,” Sapphire said in despair. “Fia… I think I’m in love with him more than you know. I know about him and your best friend. I can pretend that it never happened. I can even lie to them. Is there any wife that can do so much for him?”
Fia had no words. If it was her from the past, she would do it too.
How cheap a woman became in the name of love.
But that man… even if she were to die in front of him, he wouldn’t
even care.
“Are you done?” Victor walked back to the living room after glaring at Sapphire. “I’m going back. If you don’t want to go back, you can go back to the Starlings!”
The guest room.
Eileen could hear everything that Victor was saying as she frowned deeply.
Was that how a man was supposed to speak with his wife?
Even Conrad had never been that bad!
“I’m going back, of course!” Sapphire said as she stood up. “I’ll come visit you again, Fia.”
“Alright.” Fia paused. “Are you still staying at the mansion within the area?”
Yes. I’ve only just moved in for a few days.”
“Alright. I’ll go visit you soon.”
Sapphire hesitated before saying yes, and then grabbed Victor’s arm and ran out with him.
Once the two of them left, Conrad walked out with a cold expression.
He then complained, “Why did you tell him to go to the kitchen? If it wasn’t for Mrs. Whitley, I would have beaten him up already!”
“I was talking with Sapphire about something, so I told him to join you.”
Conrad frowned and remembered how his cousin was doing.
“She’s obsessed. Stop consoling her. Once she has enough scars, she’ll leave.”
Fia raised her head and tried to look at Conrad’s expressions, her tone cold. “Are all men just like you? Treating a woman’s love like a piece of trash?”
Conrad knew that he had said something wrong and quickly skinned the grapes and fed her. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
As soon as they were out of the mansion, Victor hurled Sapphire’s hand away.
“You did that purposely, didn’t you?”
Sapphire bit her lips and said, “I didn’t. I really just want to talk with Fia about a housewife’s daily routine.”
“Sapphire. Let me be clear with you. You’re the one that wanted to stop working and be a housewife. I didn’t force you.”
“Yes, you didn’t.” Sapphire was dazed for a moment. But her father
and mother-in-law asked her to take care of the family and her husband.
She thought she should do it too, so Victor would fall in love with her.
However, despite the two of them having been married for a while, they hadn’t even consummated their marriage.
If she didn’t have his baby, how could she strengthen her position as his wife?
“Victor, let’s go back to my parents this evening. We can have dinner with them.”
“I’m too busy today!”
“How about tomorrow then?”
“We’ll see.”
Sapphire’s smile deepened as she got herself together. If he didn’t refuse, it meant that there was still a chance tomorrow.
But when she looked at the van parked not far away, her heart sank again.
She didn’t see Eileen just now anyway, and her husband didn’t ask about her.
Instantly, she quietly sighed in relief.
