Teresa looked at Truman, who had suddenly appeared Her expression was calm, as she had one be with upe
Truman couldn’t help but marvel at Jonathan’s annoyingly pertert appearence. Even drenched, Johans free flawless, like a specimen he collected.
Truman released Teresa and said, “Mr. Lynn, Teresa asked me to take her away?
Jonathan’s gaze was cold and unreadable as he stared at Truman. “What makes
think you can * *
For I’ve been her therapist since her manage, Truman replied evenly ‘T’ve been helping her deal with the damage caused by your marriage”
Jonathan’s grip on Teresa’s arm tightened. His displeasure was evident in his piercing game.
Truman glanced at Jonathan’s long fingers and possessive hold and continued, “Teresa has been suffering from sever anxiety and depression ever since she married you.
“She told me countless times how unhappy she’s been and how much pain she’s endured. She wanted a done, the She doesn’t want to live like this anymore.
“She even said that marrying you was the worst mistake of her life. She’s exhausted, completely worn down by you
Jonathan’s sharp gaze locked onto Teresa. His brows were furrowed deeply. However, Teresa remained sterns. Her ang time, she finally nodded.
Jonathan finally slowly released Teresa’s arm.
Truman continued, “When her grandparents passed away and during the time she needed someone the most, you weren’t there for her. I was the one who stayed by her side.
“She hopes you’ll let her go, so she called me earlier and asked me to come help her out. She doesn’t want you to keep bothering her.”
Jonathan stared at Teresa with his gaze unwavering. His eyes began to redden,
He shoved his hand into his pocket, gripping the ring he had newly bought so tightly that his knuckles cracked
Peter had gone with him to Archulea, where Jonathan had selected a diamond ring he thought Teresa would love among countless rings. With that ring, Jonathan returned full of hope, only to hear those heartbroken words.
Teresa stayed silent for a moment. Then she nodded slowly. “Yes, that’s how it is.”
Jonathan was speechless. He said, “Take care of yourself and stay warm. Don’t block me. If you ever need anything, just call me. This is all I can do for you now.”
With those words, Jonathan turned around with great difficulty and walked away.
As his car sped off into the rain at a reckless speed, Teresa’s heart ached. She quickly called Benny. Teresa said, “Can you tell Jonathan to slow down? The roads are slippery. But don’t let him know it’s from me.”
“What happened between you two?” Benny asked.
Teresa replied, “Nothing. I just noticed he was driving too fast. Please, just tell him to be careful.*
After Teresa hung up, the concern in her eyes was unmistakable, and Truman noticed it.
With a guilty smile, Truman asked, “So does this count as making amends? Can we still be friends after this?”
Teresa shook her head. Her expression was distant. “No.”
The reason Teresa had asked Truman to come was simple. She knew Jonathan had held a poor opinion of Truman. Truman was a psychologist, so his words carried weight, and Jonathan would be more likely to believe him.
That marriage had indeed left Teresa deeply scarred, though she had exaggerated her condition just a little worse.
Truman said, “You know, you’re overcomplicating things. If you kissed me in front of your ex–husband, it would hit him where it hurts and speed things up.”
Teresa’s expression turned icy and disgusted. “I have standards. I wouldn’t use the trash that Simona had used
Truman’s face froze for a moment. “With such a sharp tongue, it’s hard to imagine you ever struggled with depression.”
Teresa said, “I have plenty in life, and there are
Then, Teresa turned and walked upstairs.
- ne. I’ll live well.”
Successfully unlocked!
At home, her distant and hollow gaze fell on the two intertwined wedding rings.
Back then, though Jonathan had been short on cash, he still bought a diamond ring for her because he knew how much she loved diamonds. He also promised to get her an even better one someday.
