Chapter 12 Love Is Helpless
Dorothy stayed in Juelz's villa for two days. There was no news from Credence at all.
He did not call her, let alone send her any text messages or WhatsApp messages. Therefore, on the morning of the third day, she began to feel uneasy.
Judging from Credence's vengeful character, it was unlikely that he would remain quiet until now.
Dorothy figured he must be waiting for her to fall into his trap!
At this time, Juelz came in with a glass of freshly-squeezed fruit juice. Despite Dorothy's resistance, he fed her the fruit juice. Looking at Dorothy, who was pale and haggard, he asked indignantly, "Dory, you are pregnant with his child, yet he forced you to donate your kidney to that b*tch. Isn't he f*cking insane?"
Dorothy sat with her arms wrapped around her knees. When she heard Juelz's question, she subconsciously touched her abdomen. There was a mixture of bitterness and self-mocking in her smile as she replied, "Maybe it's because... I'm not the woman he loves."
Because he did not love her, his heart would not ache for her no matter how he hurt her.
Riding on her love for him, he had no fear.
"Since he doesn't love you, why did he f*cking marry you?!"
Juelz could not bear to see Dorothy immersing in sadness. Each time he looked at her, his chest tightened.
If her husband was not Credence Scott, but any man whom the Sherman family could afford to offend, he would definitely snatch her away boldly. He would take good care of her and pamper her, making her the happiest woman in the world.
However...
The man she loved was Credence, and the man whom she had married was also him.
Since four years ago, Juelz could already tell that Credence did not have eyes on Dorothy at all. He had advised her to think it over, but she insisted on marrying him. Only then did Juelz finally realize that love could not be forced.
He loved Dorothy deeply, but the man whom Dorothy loved was Credence. That was probably the most helpless situation anyone in the world could be in!
Juelz was enraged. He picked up the glass and filled it with cold water before finishing it in one gulp. "Dory, if you are willing to be with me, I will treat the child in your belly as my own."
"Juelz, please don't say that! I don't deserve you."
Dorothy rose to her feet from the sofa. Biting her pale lips, she said bitterly, "I know Credence better than you do. He would not let you take me away, and he would never let things slide. I really don't want you and your family to be affected because of me."
"Thank you for taking care of me these two days. Let me treat you to a meal next time. I have to head back now."
With that, she walked toward the front door. However, after taking just a few steps, her legs couldn't stop trembling. Besides, she felt light-headed. The next moment, she stumbled and fell forward...
"Dory!"
Watching the scene, Juelz was so shocked that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He quickly let go of the glass in his hand and leaped over. Extending his arms, he managed to grab hold of Dorothy before she hit the floor. He caressed her pale face, saying anxiously, "Are you trying to piss me off? Don't try to be strong when you are weak, okay? What is so good about that man that you give him all your heart and soul? You even almost lost your life!"
Dorothy's heart trembled when she heard Juelz's words. She buried her face in his arms and muttered, "Juelz, I fell in love with Credence at first sight. I didn't lay my eyes on anyone else after that, what could I do?"
She could not say what was good about Credence, but he was irreplaceable.
He had made her fall in love with him when she set eyes on him!
......
On the highway nearby, a black Maybach was speeding toward the direction of the villa.
Half an hour later, Credence stepped out of the car. He then walked slowly and gracefully into the living room of Juelz's villa.
When he saw the sweet, intimate embrace between Dorothy and Juelz in the living room, anger swept him instantly.
