Chapter 266 Pretend Play Turns Real

“Let her go if you love her, treat her like a loved one,” all these are self–deceptive words.

He didn’t know when, but at some point, his heart had changed.

At first, he only saw her as a partner, not as a wife. But after three years of being together, he had fallen for her.

“It’s all my fault.” His tone was full of self–reproach, “I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you.”

He knew that the wound wouldn’t heal so easily. All he could do was to treat her better in the future, and strive to make up for it for the rest

of his life.

Claudia shook her head, her eyes red–rimmed like a rabbit’s, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t control my emotions.”

A thought occurred to her and her tone softened, “You found me a good lawyer, you helped me in the end. That could be considered a consolation to my grandmother’s spirit in heaven.”

Upon reflection, it wasn’t just Edmond’s fault, her grandmother’s death, she was also to blame.

If she hadn’t married Edmond, none of this would have happened. If she had explained to her grandmother earlier about her marriage to Edmond, her grandmother wouldn’t have been so shocked.

Upon hearing her words, Edmond’s eyes darkened. His grandmother was her last relative, and he shouldn’t have let his pride get the best of him, directing all his anger at her that night.

He chose to hurt her when she needed him the most.

Grandpa was right, it was his fault, he was not worthy. It was perfectly normal for Claudia not to look back, but he would not give up.

“It’s my fault, I will make up for it.” He wanted to say something more, but Claudia cut him off indifferently:

“It’s all in the past, no need to bring it up again. After finishing this meal, let’s go see Tristen.”

She quietly changed the subject.

After a meal, she was flabbergasted. Edmond had been serving her food and peeling shrimp for her the whole time, which made her feel uneasy.
