Chapter 242

“If they don’t want to lose me, they need to accept you. Russel replied assertively

I was dumbstruck by his words. Was he threatening his parents in the same way as her mom?

Russel was definitely not that kind of person. He would only resort to such a strategy if he felt he had no other choice. This made me realize how deeply he loved me.

I had a man in my life who loved me with all his heart. He was willing to go to great lengths just to see me happy. However, despite his unwavering affection, I couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sadness that made me want to cry.

Because I didn’t deserve his kindness, I was not worth his sacrifice.

*Russel, you know, I never truly loved you. I was just… because I couldn’t find anyone else” I spoke bluntly.

“I’m still in love with Neil. I’m sorry”

After these words, Russel’s face turned very ugly. His eyes, once filled with affection, were now full of resentment.

However, he quickly regained his composure, “I know. I’ve always known that you haven’t let go of him.”

“So you can go now. As long as your parents don’t bother me in the future, that would be the biggest help to me” I said calmly while looking at Russel. Eventually, Russel left under the weight of my cold words. Looking at his wet figure, I wanted to say, “Aren’t you cold?” but I didn’t.

Not long after Russel left, my assistant came in again and said, ‘Ms. Finch, there’s a problem. Mr. Whitmore from Whitmore Co. is here; he wants to see you!”

My head started to ache. Why was he here? Was everything he said before a lie?

I refused adamantly. “Stop him at the reception, tell him I’m in a meeting.”

“Alright.” The assistant left in a hurry.
