Chapter 465

"Lie to yourself and me..." Bob laughed out loud.

It was a laughter tinged with self-derision.

"So, all along, you've been lying to yourself and me by being with me? All the smiles on your face were feigned? Did you lie to me each time you said you loved me?" Bob asked.

Tears fell with each question he posed, and his heart ached so badly.

The pain felt worse compared to when he witnessed Zoe leaning close to Jay.

"I'm sorry." Zoe did not answer him.

Bob laughed.

He laughed so hard that he could not stop his tears from flowing.

He had thought that the heavens finally showed pity on him.

He even felt thankful that the incident happened to Zoe such that he had a chance to be with her.
