Chapter 1045

On their wedding night... the man...

Rebecca White's muscles tensed, her gaze fixed unblinkingly on him.

Francis met her stare, his eyes slender and half-closed, he spoke clearly and slowly.

Rebecca White's mouth fell open, shock exploding in her eyes!

She abruptly closed her eyes!

Flashes of that night burst into her mind... the dark room, the scorching heat, two people entangled...

Francis took her hand, "I'm sorry... from now on, I'll take good care of you, and James. We'll live well together, as a family."

"Rebecca, it's me."

Rebecca White's lips parted slightly, her hands trembling uncontrollably in his grip, suddenly breaking free from Francis. "Don't touch me!"
