Chapter 8
What’s wrong with you? Why did you move everything that was placed in my house? After all this time, aren’t you still angry?”
He looked at me as if he was looking at a disobedient child.
I remained silent and just coldly looked at him.
After a long while, he sighed and reached out his hand, wanting to hold mine, but I pushed him
away.
“I came across the Twitter post you made, and I never expected that Ryleigh left back then because she was afraid of being affected by me… I misjudged her.”
“I have already made her return all the money she took from me over the years, and I will no longer have any involvement with her in the future.”
“I’m sorry, Tess. I have neglected you all these years and caused you a lot of grievances for no reason. I know I was wrong. Come back with me, let’s be good together. I promise you, once we go back, we will discuss the matter of getting married.”
His attitude was sincere, and his light brown eyes reflected my figure, easily giving people the illusion of deep affection.
Looking at the familiar face in front of me, even though we have been together for so long, I never truly saw through him.
Although I had been looking forward to this sentence “I do” for many years, I couldn’t feel any joy in my heart when I heard it now.
Instead, the first thing that came to my mind was Jovanny’s face, which was as gentle as jade.
“Cameron, I heard everything you said in the private room that day.”

“I followed you for seven years without any status or identity. During that time, I mentioned marriage countless times, but you always found various reasons to reject it. Recently, my father fell seriously ill, and his dying wish was to see me get married. I begged you desperately at that time, but you still refused to agree.”
“How many seven–year periods can a woman have?”
I tightly closed my eyes, and what appeared before me was my father, holding my hand tightly when he was seriously ill.
He never stopped worrying about me until he died, even with his eyes open.
Thinking of this, my heart ached as if being cut by a knife.
“… I was deceived by Ryleigh, I didn’t…”
Cameron took an anxious step forward, his face full of confusion, wanting to explain, but I interrupted him by raising my hand.
I was exhausted and didn’t want to get entangled with him anymore.
“Please let me go, Cameron.”
The man’s eye sockets turned red, his pupils contracted intensely, and his outstretched hand
eventually weakly dropped down.
“That phone call… I was drunk at the time and talking nonsense. Don’t take it seriously.”
His voice trembled, tears welled up in his eyelashes, and he wanted to continue defending himself.
Upon hearing this, I merely chuckled coldly.
I know Cameron’s drinking capacity. Over the years, I have never seen him get drunk. Who would
believe it if someone said he drank too much?
“Do you think that over these years, you often flew abroad under the pretext of business trips, and I didn’t know? The two of you were living a blissful life as a couple overseas behind my back, do you
think I’m a fool?”
“The tickets in your drawer are so thick that they could be made into a book! Cameron, don’t you think it’s hypocritical for you to tell me all this now?”
Thinking about the thick stack of plane tickets I had recently seen in Cameron’s drawer. I couldn’t help but feel ironic.
I thought he worked hard, but I didn’t expect him to take the opportunity to go abroad and have a
love affair with his unattainable love.
The two of them traveled around the world, taking a photo whenever they arrived at a new place, Until now, those photos are still carefully kept by Cameron in the study.
If I hadn’t accidentally cleaned the study and found these photos, I wouldn’t have known how long they would have kept them hidden.
“Tess, you have always been the one I loved, forgive me this time and let me spend the rest of my life making it up to you.”
5, “We got married, is it good? Haven’t you already chosen the wedding dress style? Let’s go take
wedding photos now!”
He urgently grabbed my hand and was about to pull me outside.
Snap.

The crisp sound of a slap echoed, Cameron’s face twisted to one side, and a swollen red handprint appeared on his fair complexion.
He couldn’t believe it, and he unconsciously let go of my hand.
“You…”
At that moment, I was filled with disgust, feeling repulsed by the hands he had touched.
