Chapter124
His bottom line was almost erased by her.
Did he conquer the business world, but couldn’t conquer a
woman?
Terrence calmly pressed his thin lips, pulled the seatbelt over,
and forcefully inserted it down, emitting a piercing sound.
Bethany forgot about the distant and indifferent handsome
man in front of her, with a faint smile on her lips.
Last night, that gentle him seemed like her illusion.
Fortunately, she knew it was all an illusion and didn’t take it too
seriously.
Since marrying Terrence, she has been very aware of the social
gap between them, almost to the point of being sensible.
In addition, she couldn’t speak since childhood, facing many
ridicules and sarcasm, which made her dare not have too much
pride.
But everyone had their own bottom line.
Chapter124
Terrence’s ruthless and unyielding words, like a knife, pierced
through her bottom line.
She was a legitimate citizen with an ID card, and she had the
right to say no.
Even if he was her husband, he had no right to repeatedly force
her!
Bethany had been suppressing her anger for days, but it
suddenly erupted. She angrily gestured, “Just because I’m mute,
do you think I’m easy to bully? You treat me harshly and
forcefully because you have money and power. Why don’t you
be bold enough to fight for your true love? Don’t use me as a
shield. I may be mute and disabled, but I am still a human being,
not your tool!”
She didn’t care if she would anger him, and continued in sign
language, “So what if you’re so capable, you’re just bullying a
mute like me by any means necessary!”
These days, Terrence’s suppressed anger kept building up,
almost ready to burst out completely. On his handsome
features, there was a chilling aura of hostility.
Bethany knew he was angry.
The air in the workshop was as silent as death, but she was not
Chapter124
afraid at all.
She had never been so brave before.
She, a dying person, found out she had cancer, and every day
she was stabbed in the heart by the father and son, causing her
to bleed profusely. What else does she have to be afraid of?
The rabbit bit people when it got angry.
Worst case scenario, I would die half a year earlier.
Terrence’s thin lips were tightly pressed into a straight line.
She kept pretending to be mute, which made him extremely
restless.
Bethany stared at him, waiting for his imminent eruption of
anger with a resolute acceptance of death.
Terrence, however, laughed.
The crimson lips traced a hint of profound mockery, as he loosened his tie and sneered, “Do you know what happened to the last person who offended me?”
She wasn’t interested to know.
It’s just death, at worst.
Chapter124
The earlier you die, the earlier you are reborn.
Don’t meet him again in the next life.
Bethany turned her head.
Cheered in my heart for my bravery.
In the moment of venting, it felt like all the heavy burden in my
heart had been thrown away.
Terrence refused to divorce, and she and he could only go to the
bitter end.
What is death?
She didn’t understand.
She wanted to leave him early and completely.
Cut off all ties with him.
Terrence reached out and grabbed her chin, turning her
stubborn and infuriating face towards him.
“Bethany,” he softly pronounced her name, his voice sexy and
gentle, but unfortunately, a coldness seeped through his eyes,
“You showed great courage today. Didn’t you say I only bully
you because you’re mute?”
Chapter124
The man increased the pressure on his fingertips, and the pain
in Bethany’s jawbone became more pronounced.
“Alright, then I will indeed take advantage of you!” his voice was
cold and stern, “I can clearly tell you the consequences of defying me!”
He turned away from her face.
“I would like to see how you, such an ungrateful mute, would survive after leaving me!”
The man held the steering wheel with one hand, his posture still handsome and charming, his deep gaze coldly staring at her.
The thin lips uttered an extremely cold and thin remark: “Now, you can leave, and leave Vespera Villa along with it.”
Bethany had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
Before getting off the car, she gestured to Terrence and said, “There is a signed divorce agreement in the study drawer, Mr. McConnell, don’t forget to sign it.””
Bethany withdrew her hands, no longer glancing at Terrence,
and immediately got off the car, heading straight towards the mansion’s entrance.
Chapter124
Terrence gripped the steering wheel, his nails almost digging
into the leather cover.
The gaze was even deeper, as dark as the night.
The next second, he suddenly stepped on the accelerator, and
the car sped away.
