A Replacement Bride

Chapter 108

"Mr. Levisay, are you not picking it up?" Ben looked at the phone, which had been ringing for a long time, but Joaquin didn't look like he planned to pick it up at all, so he couldn't help but remind him.

After Joaquin glanced at Ben, he picked up the phone. However, he just put the phone to his ear and didn't say anything.

It was not the first time Beatrice had been absurd since her accident. She even pressured him with her death. This made him feel a little tired and annoyed when facing her.

This time, she was definitely asking him to go to the hospital to visit her no matter what.

At this thought, Joaquin pressed his lips together and regretted sleeping with Beatrice that time. If that didn't happen…

He didn't continue thinking since Beatrice's voice had already come through. She was still as gentle as usual, along with some thoughtfulness. "Joe, are you busy? Did I disturb you?"

"No, why?" Her attitude made him slightly stunned, so his tone became a lot calmer as well.

"Nothing much. I've been thinking a lot recently. I was always being absurd previously, making everyone unhappy and making you feel that I'm annoying. I've been reflecting a lot on myself these days. It's all my fault. Joe, I'm disabled now. I don't want to be a burden to you and let you be responsible for me. Let's just take what happened five years ago as a dream and forget about it. I won't look for you anymore, and you don't need to look for me either. Let's just pretend that we have never known each other. You live a good life with Miss Cornell. I'll give you my blessing."

After saying all these things in a soft voice, she sighed discreetly. "Thank you for being a part of my life, Joe. I've lived these five years very happily. These five years are the happiest period of my life. I will always remember it. Goodbye, Joe."

When Joquin heard what she said, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, and an uneasiness rose from the bottom of his heart. It was almost instinct when he shouted, "Where are you now, Beatrice? Don't do anything silly! I'm coming now!"

"Don't worry, Joe. I won't do anything silly. I don't want you to worry about me. I'll live my life well." Beatrice tried very hard to control her emotions, but Joaquin could still hear that she was crying.

However, this state where she was acting tough when she was actually feeling upset inside made him feel extremely bad.

Why am I such a jerk?! I'm the one who forced Beatrice at that time, but not only did she not blame me, she still treated me so well throughout these five years. Even though she didn't have any status, she didn't grumble about it at all. How can I say that she's annoying now that she was involved in an accident and has lost her legs?!
