Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“You can ask James.”

“…” Alright, what a petty man!

Sure enough, he was angry with her because of James!

Obviously, he wouldn’t go back with her. But in order to make herself less guilty, she thought for a while and decided to apologize. “Terence, I’m sorry for … what happened last night. I … I shouldn’t have kicked you out of bed, but it was my first time … and I felt nervous.”

She stammered and her face turned red.

If it was her first time yesterday, then what was the night on their wedding day? It seemed that the explanation could only get her into trouble. Forget it!

“Alright, I’ll go back by myself. But if I can’t get back safely from the Cusack’s before tonight, please do me a favor and go there to pick up my body tomorrow morning. Thank you,” she said with a dejected face.

After saying such self-mocking words to frighten him, she turned around and walked towards the front yard helplessly.

She thought that hearing this, Terence would at least do something. After all, a trip to the Cusack’s wasn’t that difficult!

However, he didn’t. When the car with its trunk full of gifts slowly drove out of the Gibson’s, she glanced at the main room in the rear-view mirror, without seeing Terence at all.

It seemed that she could give up now.

The Gibson’s was a little far away from the Cusack’s. When the car approached her family’s villa, Esther saw her mother standing at the door with an umbrella and watching the road in anticipation. She was obviously waiting for her.

Seeing the Gibson family’s car, Doris didn’t look happy but worried.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“Mom, I’m back.” Esther got off the car, smiled and held her mother’s arm.

“Why are you back alone?” Doris took one glance inside the car and became more anxious. She lowered her voice and said, “You should have let Mr. Terence come back with you.”

“Mom, he is very busy, so I could only come back alone.” Esther fobbed her mother off with an excuse.

“I don’t think so. The real reason is that he is very ugly and you’re too embarrassed to take him back, isn’t it?” A mocking voice came from inside the house, and then Anne walked out slowly. She leaned against the doorframe and looked at Esther. “Or it might be … he is too weak to go out?

Esther gave her a cold look. Anne was wearing a sexy lace nightdress. She had a rosy face and red lips, charming and seductive. Such a beautiful woman actually said something awful like this…

“Am I wrong?” Anne continued to mock. “Terence is a sick and doesn’t need to work. How can he be that busy?”

“Anne, will you hold your tongue?” Doris glared at her. “Mr. James is still in the room. You should stay with him.”

“Oh, right, I should go. How can I waste my time here talking with my sister?” Anne ran her fingers through her long hair, looking attractive.

When she pulled her hair back, Esther clearly saw the earrings on her ears, which looked familiar. They were exactly the ones that James claimed to have bought for her in the capital yesterday. But they were now on Anne’s ears.
