Chapter 4 I didnt know how long I was out . When I finally woke up , my best friend , Janessa Scotts voice was the first thing I heard . She scolded , Antonio , are you crazy ? You made her swim after she had a miscarriage ? How could you not know ? A miscarriage … When did she get pregnant ? Why didnt she tell me ? Antonios voice was rough , filled with regret . Are you blind ? Cant you see how sick shes been ? Or are you too busy ogling Wendy ? Janessa was seething with anger Purchase completed If we werent in a hospital , she might have slapped Antonio . I didnt know … Antonios voice was weak . You gave the house to Wendy and bought her a car , but you didnt know about that ? How do you think she miscarried ? Its your fault ! Janessa snapped . I … Antonio was lost for words . I cant stand to look at you . Get out , I said . The ward fell silent , and I slowly opened my eyes . Janessa sat by me , her face worried as she touched my head . Are you awake ? How are you feeling ? I looked at her , tears filling my eyes . Did you know everything ? Chapter 售 : 288 Janessa tapped my forehead , shaking her head in disappointment . You should have listened to me . You shouldnt have married him . Its too late now . Reflecting on the past made my heart hurt . If I hadnt been so lovestruck , my parents would never have let me marry him , no matter how wealthy Antonios family was . During our parents first dinner , I overheard Antonios mom on a call in the restroom . We were ready to give an 80 thousand- dollar dowry , but her family is so cheap and poor , 30 thousand dollars should be more than enough . That night , I told Antonio about it He said his mom , Judith Cobb , was out of line and promised to make up for the dowry . But that never happened . It wasnt until three years into our marriage , after a few drinks , that Antonio let the truth slip . I knew about the dowry . My mom asked me . Lila , youre so gullible . No wonder they say love makes your stupid . Now , with a clear head , I could see Antonio for who he really . He was a hypocrite . At some point , Antonio walked into the ward , looking at me . 20 40 % He apologized , Im sorry , honey . didnt know about the miscarriage … Feeling the coldness of the sea again , I looked at Antonio and interrupted him coldly , I know youre into Wendy . Lets divorce . You can marry her , and Ill wish you both the best , I dont want a divorce . Antonio was desperate , trying to explain , I swear . Theres nothing between us . I am not into her . Otherwise , I wouldnt have married you . I gave him a cold look and let out a laugh , Seriously ? Antonio , didnt you tell me you had a thing for Wendy , but just never got the chance ? You said youd hate marrying me on a whim , and the second we split , youd be all over Wendy . Was that all just talk ? That night , Antonio was wasted , and Wendy was the one who brought him home . I was sleeping in the guest room , but I could hear every move they made in the living room . Wendy helped Antonio , who was covered in his own vomit , onto the couch , and then she made to leave . Antonio clutched her waist , not ready to let go . Ive got regrets , he mumbled . Whyd I rush into marrying her ? Wendy glanced my way from the bedroom , a smirk on her face . So , if you did divorce , whod you be with ? she asked , grinning . You , obviously . If I divorced , Id marry you right away . Baby , will you spend the night with me ? pleaded Antonio . That night , Wendy didnt stay . I figured she was tired of dealing with his mess . That was why she dumped him back on me . Looking back , I didnt rush to the living room and confront Wendy because I was disappointed with Antonio . Later on , my time with Antonio was the final stage of getting over him . Antonio was kicked out of the ward by Janessa . But he didnt give up . Half an hour later , my phone was buzzing like crazy . Antonio took me off his blacklist He sent me over a dozen messages , all showing concern . He texted , I heard that youve just had a miscarriage . Chicken soup will do you good . Ill make some for you later . Dont eat anything cold these days . Keep your tummy warm . Ive ordered some tonics to help you recover . Lets forget about my mistakes . Can we start over ? I didnt reply to Antonio . I put his messages on silent , had the nurse switch me to a VIP ward , and made it clear that I wasnt to be disturbed . Antonio kept calling , hoping to see me . I finally answered the Chapter 4 phone , annoyed . Antonio , I dont want to see you right now . Lets talk about getting a divorce once Ive recovered , okay ? There was a pause , and then Antonios gentle voice came through . Honey , I just want to see you from afar . I wont bother you . To avoid any further entanglement , I hung up and turned off my phone . Three days later , I packed up and was discharged from the hospital . Antonio was waiting for me at the hospital entrance . When he saw me , a smile appeared on his face . Discharged ? Let me drive you home . I didnt make a fuss and just got in the car . As the car started , the Bluetooth speaker came to life , and Wendys sweet voice filled the car . Welcome back , my dear ! Work hard and make some dough for me to spend . 1201 20 % Douchers .
