Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 651



How he treated himself, Francis Johnson didn't care much how she treated him, but he was puzzled. "How did you find this place?" "Huh?"

Caroline Thompson paused, her eyes reddening even more, tears quickly welling up.

"At a time like this, that's what you're worried about? Francis, where do I stand with you?"

Francis knew he had misspoken. At this point, how she found out was clearly not important.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

"I'm sorry."

"Sorry?"

Caroline cried, shaking her head, "A simple sorry, that's it? You need to explain! What's the deal with you and Rebecca White? Did she come onto you, is that it?"

"Caroline!"

That was too much, Francis frowned and rebuked, "Don't talk about Rebecca White like that, she didn't know anything!"

"Really now."

Caroline's breath hitched, her laughter tinged with sarcasm, "Defending her already? What does she not know? She seduced my man, and she's still the innocent one?"

Her emotions suddenly out of control, she let go of Francis and stormed towards the yard.

"I have to ask her myself, does she even know what shame is!"

"Caroline."

Francis timely grabbed her hand.

His brows furrowed deeply, he slowly shook his head, "The one who should apologize to you is me, not Rebecca White! It's me who hurt her. She was young when she had our son, James. She's a victim too! If you're upset, take it out on me!"

Caroline was visibly shaken, her shoulders trembled, and tears streamed down her face.

So, it was true... Rebecca White was James's mom...

Rebecca White, she was James's mom!

"You found her a long time ago!"

Caroline, tears brimming, her vision blurred, "So, the secret romance was real, your dalliance was real!"

"It wasn't like that!"

Francis's breathing suddenly grew heavier as he denied, "Before you decided to move to Switzerland, I had no such feelings for her!" What??

Caroline froze, her gaze fixed, "Was it me... who gave you the chance?"

Francis fell silent, "Since you didn't need me anymore, I thought James deserved a complete family. I owed it to both him and his mother." "Owed? What a word to use..."

Caroline scoffed, lifting her eyelids slightly, "What about me, Francis? What am I supposed to do?"

Francis was stunned, not quite

understanding her point, "Caroline we had already broken up,

remember? You said you couldn't accept James."

Yes, she had said that!

Caroline, her lips slightly parted, her chest heaving.

Recalling how Francis had recently given Rebecca White a pen with such care, she suddenly laughed, "Francis, do you know? All these

years together, you never once put that much thought into a gift for me!

All those years with the Johnsons, it was undeniable, he had been good to her, accommodating every request.

Her birthday, and all other holidays, either she had to mention it, or his secretary or Sawyer would arrange everything, even Sylvia Johnson would chip in with ideas.

All Francis had to do was present the gift...

Francis watched her, not denying, "That's because you already had everything."

"?"

Caroline never expected such a response!

Her heart ached sharply, and she pushed him away with all her might.

"Francis, well done! Treating me this way, I just have to see if you'll ever be happy!"

She then turned and ran.

"Caroline!"
