Yaraâs face was cold. She looked at Gloria, clasped her hands, as if holding back her anger, and suddenly smiled. âYes, I am cheap, but you are worse than me. Gloria, think about why you and Yank divorced.â
âBecause of you! Because of you bitch!â Gloria was furious. âBecause you seduced him and destroyed our family, all because of you.â
Yara sneered. âYou really have no memory of your past! About that night at the Victor hotel ten years ago, did you think that if you didnât tell, no one would ever know?â
Gloriaâs face suddenly changed. âYou... What do you mean?â
âYou know what I mean better than I do. You probably never know that after what you did, that guy will come up to Yank with a video and ask Yank to watch how you made love all night.â
Gloria turned pale and shook as she looked at Yara, âNo, itâs impossible. Yank knew, he knew...â
Yara kept a poker face. âNot only did he know, but to cover up your dirty business, every time that person came, he paid that person to keep him quiet. Do you know how he survived each time? He loved you, and you knew it, but why were you hurting him?â
âNo!â Gloria burst into tears. âI had no idea about that night. I had no idea. I tried to explain it to him, but I saw you with him, and it hurt me, and thatâs why I started fighting with him. I didnât know it was like this.â
Yara looked at her grief coldly and said, âThere was nothing going on between me and him back then. Just to cover up your dirty laundry, he promised me a share of the Gibson Family and money. The George Group was going bankrupt, and it was my fatherâs lifeâs work, so I needed the money. So I agreed to accompany him in a play. As soon as he got the word out that he was having an affair, that guy would know what he had gotten was useless. Surely you have no idea why that man died in a car accident for no apparent reason. It was Yank who killed him on your behalf.â
Gloria sank to the floor sobbing.
âWhy didnât he tell me? Why?â
âTell you?â Yaraâs face was grim. âWhatâs the point of telling you? That guy died in a car accident, and you almost killed him for a loser. Why would he tell you? To make you hate him for killing the one you cared about the most?â
âWhat are you talking about? I donât even love him. That night was an accident. He was dead and I was just there checking. I saw you with him, and it hurt me, and thatâs why I stabbed him, and I didnât expect this.â
Hank looked very angry.
He looked at Yara and said coldly, âWhy are you saying this now? Yank is dead, do you want to kill my mother too?â
Yara sneered. âSo you want your mother to hate your father all her life? He had been wronged for so many years, why should he not be allowed to die a clean death?â
âItâs my fault! Itâs all my fault.â Gloria picked herself up hesitantly and looked at Yara and smiled. âHe loved me. Yes, he did.â
There seemed to be something wrong with her. I looked at Hank and said, âYouâd better take your mother to the hospital. She doesnât seem right now.â
Not many people could handle that kind of excitement. Hank took one look at Yara and helped Gloria out of the house.
Yara and I were left in the house. I looked at the indifferent woman and said lightly, âItâs getting late. Iâll go back first.â
I hadnât gone a few steps before she said, âYou think Iâm wrong, too? Ought I not to tell all this?â
I looked back at her and paused before saying, âYank didn't want to say it when he was alive. Maybe he had his own agenda.â
She sneered, âHeâs just worried about Gloriaâs feelings and reputation. What else could he be up to?â
I couldnât help frowning. I always felt her words were full of malice. Looking at her, I couldnât help but say, âYankâs plans were his scruples. All he wanted in life was to protect his wifeâs reputation. Youââre taking more than half of her life for that.â
Gloria endured and hated for half her life, and finally found herself at fault. She hated the wrong man and loved the wrong man. The rest of her life was going to be difficult in any way.
She looked at me and narrowed her eyes. âAre you defending Hank? Is my own life not important? My whole life is ruined because of her. I did not marry the man I love and have no one to grow old with me. To be fair, I am the poor one.â
Watching her suffer, I felt no sympathy at all. I looked at her and said, âHank gave you a majority stake in the Gibson Family, along with the emergency money. Thatâs what youâre willing to trade for. He had been with you all these years, giving you love and care. One cannot be too greedy.
You enjoyed his money and love, and now heâs gone, and you start blaming him for wasting your life. Is that okay?â
People had their own choices. She knew this would happen when she chose to be with Hank. Sooner or later, it was just a matter of time.
She glared at me. âWhy are you helping outsiders when youâre Georgeâs wife? Itâs a waste of Dennis loving you.â
I frowned and stopped talking to her. Maybe we were not the same, no matter how hard we tried, we could not get together.
Please Love Me, Mr. George ï¤Chapter 213 The Gibson Familyâs Complicated Past When she came to me about Oliviaâs baby, I was ready. She was the kind of person who put profit before everything else.
It was already dark when I left their house.
I went straight back to the villa, expecting Dennis to be back, but he wasnât there.
So I went straight back to my room. I read a lot of documents in the company at noon, and some key words were mentioned in them that I was not familiar with, so I could check them now.
Nanny Daisy asked me to have dinner but I was mesmerized, so I asked her to leave me alone.
By the time Dennis got back, it was a little late.
He probably saw I wasnât in the bedroom, so he came to see me in the study.
Seeing him, I pulled my eyes from the computer, looked at him and said, âHey, youâre home!â
He smiled, walked over to me and leaned over my desk to see what I was looking at.
The faint smell of perfume made me wince.
I hardly ever used perfume, and neither did he, and it smelled like a woman.
My smile faded, and I got up to avoid his hand and head back to my bedroom.
