Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 124 No More Rationality

Erin’s words hit Simon like a bolt from the blue, and he remained frozen with a stiff expression on his face for quite some time.

When he snapped back to his senses, he was somewhat annoyed as he asked. “What do you mean? Why are you slandering Megan? Why?

Simon’s reaction revealed to Erin that he really liked Megan. This worsened Erin’s mood. If Simon didn’t like Megan that much, that would be better for him. Then, he wouldn’t have to endure so much pain.

Seeing Erin suddenly fall silent, Simon angrily walked toward the door. She guessed that he was in a hurry to leave.

“I didn’t slander Megan. She has been deceiving you all along! She has a relationship with a man named Percival behind your back. I heard.

them with my own ears earlier-”

He turned back furiously and shouted at Erin, “Shut up! Who gave you the courage to spout such nonsense? Don’t forget that I’m a lawyer! I don’t care if you’re a friend of my cousin or not, if you dare spread rumors and cause trouble like this. I won’t let you off the hook!”

Simon’s intense reaction pained Erin deeply. The more anger and denial he displayed, the more it proved that he cared about Megan.

This made Erin suddenly curious, and she asked, “Since you care about her so much, why do you insist on not having sex before marriage?

Seeing him like this, Erin couldn’t help but think of her past self. Occasionally, she would wonder if she hadn’t insisted on those rigid and outdated principles, would her love with lan have blossomed and borne fruit?

“H–How do you know about that?” Simon suddenly walked toward her in agitation, standing right in front of her, his gaze interrogating.

Erin calmly said, “I told you. I heard it with my own ears. Megan confessed it herself.”

Upon learning that a third person knew about such a private matter, a trace of disgust for Erin flashed across Simon’s eyes. He turned his face away from Erin and said, “Because I care about her. I want to save that most important moment for the most important day.”

His words made Erin chuckle involuntarily. Simon looked at her and said, “What are you laughing at? I’m afraid someone like you wouldn’t understand-

“You think I don’t? Hah… Let me tell you the truth. Before I got married, I was just like you, wanting to save that most important moment for the most important day! That was why I insisted. But what did I get in the end? All I got was betrayal. He even blamed me for his infidelity! He blamed me for being so rigid with my principles!”
