Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 636 Comforting His Wife

1/8

Chandler's gaze held a hint of pain. He was the one who cared most about Meryl and their unborn child's safety.

Yet his good intentions had been misunderstood by Meryl, who now saw him as someone who would harm them.

Meryl bit her lip in the darkness of the room, hoping Chandler couldn't see her tears.

She quietly wiped her eyes with the corner of the blanket. "I didn't push her down those stairs. Look at how Rachel puts on this whole act, and you immediately start doubting me. "Since you think I pushed her, fine, let's say I did. I'm just that evil. I'm not good enough for you! Just go!" Her chest tightened with emotion, making it hard to breathe. Her voice cracked as she finished speaking. She didn't want to appear vulnerable in front of Chandler, but the unfairness of it all was overwhelming. Though Meryl had her back to him, Chandler could sense she was crying. His heart ached for her. Chandler pulled Meryl into his embrace, holding her close. "Alright, it was my fault. Please stop crying."

He had to admit, walking in to find blood everywhere, and Rachel soaked to the bone like a drowned rat. Anyone would have jumped to conclusions.

Especially since Meryl had recently been hospitalized because of Rachel...

It was understandable that Meryl harbored resentment towards Rachel and might lash out at her.

Chandler wasn't trying to blame Meryl. He was just stating the facts.

He said, "Come on, don't cry anymore. I believe you."

Meryl had a feeling Chandler's words of belief weren't genuine, just something he said to soothe her.

She bit her lip, feeling even more miserable. "I want to sleep."

Chandler studied Meryl for a few seconds. Seeing her eyes closed, genuinely trying to sleep, he lay down on the other side of the bed.

His voice came out low and deep. "Go home with me tomorrow. I'll find a way to get her out of here."

With the plagiarism scandal, Rachel's reputation was shot. Forget about holding a concert. She might not even get hired for small gigs.

In this industry, reputation was everything. At this point,

developing her career abroad would be her best option.

It was the perfect opportunity to get rid of her.

Meryl knew perfectly well that this wasn't over. While Rachel might be at the heart of her problems with Chandler, sending Rachel away wouldn't magically fix everything. "I'm not going home," she said stubbornly. "I'm perfectly fine staying here."

At least until Rachel was gone for good, she had no intention of returning home.

Chandler frowned. "Meryl, I'm sending her away. Aren't you done being angry?"
