Chapter 037 Too much pain
“Since we are not divorced, my husband’s money is my money. Isn’t it right that I spend a little? I did not use Laura’s money. Laura seems to care too much about it. My husband wouldn’t blame me.”
Jenny’s words almost made Laura angry to blush. Somehow, Barret felt a little happy when he heard this. “Well, don’t bother Laura, I’m leaving.” “Wait a minute, I want to talk to you alone.” Laura proposed. But Jenny refused, “If you have something to say, just say it here!” Laura looked at her and still insisted, “Only a few minutes, I promise it won’t take you too long. Jenny, are you afraid?” “I only give you five minutes.” Jenny said.
After her words, Jenny walked away. Laura followed her, sliding her wheelchair. They were alone in a quiet corner, so it was easy to talk. “The ring you just bought, I assume you bought it directly and didn’t try it on.” Laura spoke first. “This has nothing to do with you, doesn’t it?” “Of course, it does.” Laura smiled and her eyes fell on Jenny’s finger. “That ring on your finger, I guess you never took it off.” Jenny hated to admit it, but Laura was right this time. She felt the ring was a little small when she wore it, so it slipped on her finger a little tight. At school, someone saw her ring and asked her if she was married. At the time, she didn’t want to make her marriage public.
So she said it’s just a ring that she bought when she was traveling and wore all the time because it looked good. “Aren’t you curious how I know that?” Laura looked at her. “I knew you’d say that if I don’t want to tell you, then forget it.” Jenny pretended to leave, but Laura said immediately, “The three rings you just bought are exactly the same size as your wedding ring. But you can’t fit them. Only I can.” “Laura, don’t try to provoke me in this way. I won’t believe a word you say.” “Is it?” Laura smiled, but she wasn’t worried. “If you don’t believe me, you can take out all three rings. Then we both try it on. It’ll tell.” Jenny knew that she had fallen into Laura’s trap.
But what can she do? The trap was too deep for her to get out of. At that moment, as if possessed by a demon, she opened the ring box and took out three rings. Then she started trying it on her ring finger. As
a result, the first ring was too small. The second ring was smaller. The third ring was still too small. Laura picked up the ring and slipped it easily into her ring finger. The result was pretty obvious. “Jenny, I know you don’t want to admit this, but I have to tell you that the ring you have on your finger was custom-made for me by Barret. It was the exact size for my hand. My fingers are thinner than yours, so it feels smaller when you put it in. Also, Barret was going to propose to me with this ring, but you beat me to it. When you
two were married, he didn’t want to waste it so he gave it to you. You think he made it for you? It’s just garbage I don’t want.”
Jenny clasped her hands. She didn’t want to believe it at all. But she knew Laura was telling the truth. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Jenny suddenly felt herself like a clown. Not only was the marriage not hers, it’s a lie. Even the wedding rings subordinate to marriage were fake. All were lies. All was fake. So, what else was true between her and Barret? Laura slipped the rings on her ring finger, then held her hands up and showed Jenny, smiling proudly. That smile was very dazzling. The more dazzling thing was the diamond on the ring, which
pierced her eyes severely. It hurt much. She suddenly remembered the most classic advertisement about the diamond ring in her mind. “A diamond will last forever.” Haha, all this is a joke.
It’s ridiculous that she had taken it seriously. “Jenny, I’ve made myself very clear. Don’t you understand? I was the only one Barret ever loved. You were never meant to be in our lives.” “Your father, your mother and your family background. If it were not for the legacy and grace of your grandfather, you would never contact with Smith family. Barret is a star you couldn’t reach if you were on a ladder, so Jenny, give up.”
Jenny refuted, “What about you, Laura? After two years of marriage, how do you know he doesn’t have
any feelings for me? How do you know he still loves you as much as he did at first?” “Laura, what are your afraid of?” I have to say that Jenny’s question made Laura’s heart beat. She panicked. She was
really scared too, but Laura was not the one giving up easily.
She looked up with a smile of confidence and certainty, “What am I afraid of? Barret loves me. He’s all I have to stand up to the world. Why should I be afraid?” “Is it? Jenny. On the face of it, you make a lot of sense.” But Laura, remember, I don’t owe you anything. When I married him, you broke up amicably. And when you came back, it was during my marriage with him, so you broke my marriage. But I, Jenny, have. never been involved in your relationship. “Whether you love him or he loves you, I won’t bless you.” Jenny turned around and went straight down the stairs. If she didn’t go, she’s afraid she would cry. Before, she saw someone ask, if you love someone very much. Then one day, when he gets married and the bride is not you, will you bless him?
She always thought she would smile and bless. She would wish him happiness and a happy marriage. But now she knew how difficult it was to say blessing. You can’t bless the one you truly love with other women. It hurts to even look at him. How can you see his tenderness to other women? She was just a stingy woman. She would be hurt and cry. Just as she was about to leave the mall, Jenny’s hand was held by someone. As soon as she turned around, she saw Barret. “Why did you run away alone?” He looked at her with a concerned face. Jenny shook her head. “I want to go back now.” “I’ll let Carey drive you off.” “I don’t want Carey to drive me off. What if I want you to take me home?” Jenny said and looked at him with big eyes. She’s not lying. She really wanted him to send her. Barret seemed surprised, but soon he returned to normal. He rubbed her hair and said with a soft voice like coaxing a child. “Don’t be capricious. I’ll go home with you at night.”
