Chapter 836: Chapter 836 Ti of Stunning Beauty: The Wedding (Finale 6)_1
Anita Madris’s expression beca sowhat rigid.
Howard Coleman was silent for a few seconds, then, without hesitation, continued to speak, “The reason I ca was out of fear sothing might happen to you. Now that you’re safe, I’m heading ho.”
As he spoke, Howard pulled his hand away from Anita’s grasp.
Anita jumped off the bed abruptly and hugged Howard’s waist from behind, “Howard, you love . You’ve said before that you’d only love for your entire life.”
Howard’s back stiffened as Anita, who was hugging him, shed tears, “Howard, you know it wasn’t my choice to go abroad. It was your Dad who forced to leave. He gave a large sum of money and sent overseas for work against my will. You know my English isn’t good, and how terribly I’ve suffered abroad. Only after that project finally ended could I co back this once. You said you would love for a lifeti, you swore it. Now that I have returned from abroad, are you saying you don’t want anymore?”
While speaking, Anita fumbled in her bag hastily before pulling out an envelope and handing it to Howard, “Howard, this is the money your Dad gave . I haven’t touched a penny of it, I’m returning it all to you.”
...
Howard’s expression grew heavy as he looked at the envelope Anita handed him for several monts, then said, “Keep the money. Consider it compensation for back then.”
Hearing these words, Anita’s tears fell even more fiercely.
Howard turned his head away, not looking at Anita’s tear-streaked face. He couldn’t quite explain himself when he blurted out, “Anita, I can’t possibly divorce Madeleine.”
“Why can’t you? Howard, you don’t even love her, you hate her, don’t you? It was she who used her influence to ruthlessly tear us apart…”
He used to curse Madeleine in the sa way, but now, hearing Anita speak of Madeleine like that, Howard found himself sowhat unable to accept it. Without thinking, he said in a heavier tone, “What happened between us is my fault!”
In Anita’s mory, Howard had never been harsh with her before. This was the first ti. She was stunned by his fierce tone and stood frozen for a long while before looking at Howard and blinking, “Howard, are you taking her side? Could it be that during the ti I was gone, you fell for her?”
Fallen for Madeleine?
These words struck Howard like a sledgehamr, slamming into his heart, causing an indescribable panic to rise, compelling him to blurt out without thinking, “What nonsense are you saying, how could I possibly like Madeleine?”
After Howard finished speaking, he felt an increasing sense of panic. He didn’t wait for Anita to speak again and, extending his hand abruptly, pushed her away, hastily left saying “Get so rest”, then, disregarding the shocked and sorrowful expression on the woman behind him, bolted out of the hotel as if fleeing from disaster.
Once in the car, Howard finally let out a breath, then felt his heart racing faster than it ever had before.
–
Nearly at five in the morning, Madeleine saw Howard Coleman co out of the hotel.
