Chapter 72

“What was all this for?” Rickard couldn’t understand. When he thought about the past, he didn’t want to marry Hesper, but after they were married, they respected each other. Hesper dealt with the troubles they gave her at home and did her part well as the daughter-in-law. He thought that even if his own mother and sister looked down on her, the worse they would do was mock her, but to be so cruel? Julie breathed heavily as she said in an indifferent tone. “You should remember that she left with another man. They might already be sleeping together and her heart doesn’t belong to you anymore. Don’t you think that it’s funny to put us on the spot for her now?” Seeing how he was silent, she pretended to be cynical. “I know that your divorce was rushed and you feel like you’ve wronged her, but it’s been so many years. You should start a new life now. We should stop mentioning her, alright?” Rickard kept his eyes on them for a few seconds, then left without saying anything more.
