Chapter 170 His Child

Tessa’s hostile way of asking such a derogatory question made Erin feel repulsed. She couldn’t understand how her relationship with Chandler had anything to do with Tessa.

“Who are you to Chandler?” Erin maintained a nonchalant expression.

Tessa mentioning Chandler for a second time didn’t sit well with Erin. Her dislike for the woman before her deepened when she thought of the fact that Tessa was the one who caused her misery by capturing and imprisoning her.

Although Tessa could be considered pretty, she had a scar that marred the middle of her forehead, making her appear somewhat savage and terrifying. At the same time, it elicited a sense of pity for her as well.

Tessa didn’t bother to conceal anything as a slight smirk appeared on her lips. “I’m not anyone significant to him. I just can’t stand seeing him happy! Over the years, he casually sought out women, but each time, he swiftly got rid of them without any lingering attachments by

using money to send them away. Why did he make an exception for you?”

She then answered her own question by continuing, “Perhaps that’s love. Others may not understand it, but one’s own heart knows best

whether they truly like someone or not.”

Erin remained silent, observing the woman before her and not knowing what to say. She wouldn’t utter useless pleas for mercy, as Tessa wasn’t likely to develop compassion suddenly and choose to let her go.

Her calm composure impressed and deeply frustrated Tessa at the same time. It seemed impossible to make Erin cry and beg for mercy.
