Chapter 14: Blaming Me for Always Being Too Thoughtful
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
When she arrived in the neighborhood, the suspected paparazzi were
squatting nearby. Fortunately here was one of the most upscale
neighborhood of Luo city, and it was the villa with its own entrance and
courtyard. The host of villa was either rich or expensive and the security
system was very perfect. If these people wanted to sneak in, she was
afraid of that it was not easy.
Chloe gave her neighborhood access card, so she wasn't worried about
getting in. When she pulled it out, the sharp-eyed paparazzo probably
thought she was nice and gullible, âExcuse me, beauty.â
Olive asked warily, âWhat's up?â
âWell, I have a relative living in this community, and I came from far
away. I wanted to give him some hometown's special products, but I
forgot his phone. I came here once before, so I knew his location. The
security guards didn't allow me in, so can you do me a favor, and lead
me passingly.â
Olive took a look. There were two more furtive figures in the car,
peeking, in the direction that he pointed. Olive sneered, âyou try to fool
me as I was three years old, and please hide your cameras of paparazzi
from me.â
That man's face looked bad. Olive turned and walked into the
neighborhood. The servant opened the door.
âWhere was your hostess?â Olive asked.
âUpstairs, she shut herself up all day without eating or drinking. Miss
Olive, since you are friendly with hostess, please talk to her and comfort
her.â The servant was kind, and didn't bully Chloe even her husband
didn't love her anymore and her mother-in-law disliked her.
âWell, Mary, please cook some porridge and make two small dishes.â
âAll right.â
Olive stepped up the marble glistening staircase, and Mary told her the
way to Chloe's bedroom. She opened the door and caught sight of the
mess.
It was like the typhoon passing over the bedroom. The cups, chairs,
tables, pillows, quilts, and dressing mirror, all fell to the ground. Those
wedding photos, which Chloe has been saving for a long time, were
also broken. She could imagine how sad she was at that moment.
The woman with disheveled hair leaned over the bed, crouching on the
ground. Olive thought Chloe would be sad, but she didn't expect Chloe
would break down like this.
Because she knew the cause of it, she didn't know how to comfort her.
She walked up to her and hugged her, âdonât be sad. It's not worth
breaking your heart for such a man.â
Chloe put her head on Olive's shoulder, and she said, âOlive, maybe
you're right. A womenâs blind tolerance would only indulge men's bad
habits. In fact, our marriage went wrong in less than a year. At first, he
stayed out late, saying he was busy with work. Later, he stayed out all
night. Even a silly woman knew what had happened, but I put up with it,
thinking that one day he would come back to me, and only to find that
I have been lying to myself.â
Olive stumbled. Was Chloe ready to strike back, or was she giving up
her marriage?
âThat you...â
âDonât worry about me. It's all right. It seems to go back to the
liberation for me. Olive, do you think I can start a new life?â
âSure, but Chloe, are you sure?â
âIt wasn't my decision, it was Bruce who forced me to make this
decision.â
Olive followed her sight. She saw a few pages of paper by the bedside
and the words of divorce agreement were written in black ink on white
paper.
