Forbidden Passion

Chapter 341 What am I to You?

Donovan saw she was still mad and said, "I made a huge mistake.. Phoebe, I stole five million from the company. Can you ask Theodore to cover for me? I'll pay him back once I get the money." "Five million? You say it like it's nothing. I don't even know how to ask him," Phoebe replied.

"You two are married. It's no big deal. He's been with you for three years; can't he lend you five million?" Donovan said, getting more worked up.

He suddenly stood up and walked out. "I'm going to find him. He can sleep with you for free."

"Donovan!" Phoebe glared at his back, her eyes red. "What do you want? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"

Donovan paused, turned around, and saw Phoebe's tear-filled eyes. He panicked. "Phoebe, I didn't mean it. It's unfair to you. You were fine with Edward. You would have been Edward's wife without him. I wouldn't be in this mess if Edward treated me better."

When he graduated, he wanted to work at the Reynolds Group, but Theodore wanted him to start from the bottom. As a Harvard grad, Donovan found it humiliating to deliver documents.

As Phoebe's brother, Donovan thought he should have been a manager.

He was furious and left. Later, he complained to Phoebe about Theodore, but Phoebe sided with Theodore.

Donovan realized then that Phoebe couldn't be relied upon and would always side with Theodore.

Phoebe clenched her fist, resisting the urge to punch him. "Donovan, don't feel sorry for me. Think about yourself. You've known that woman for only a few days, and you're already gambling and stealing for her."

"I truly love her. So, I'm willing to take on high-interest loans for her. What about Theodore? I don't think he even likes you," Donovan said.

Phoebe closed her eyes. "You see her as true love, but she sees you as an ATM. Your so-called true love is worthless."

Donovan retorted, "Phoebe, just because you haven't experienced love doesn't mean you can belittle mine. Even though I hate her now, we were genuinely in love these past few months."
