NovelEnglishChapter 55 Lindey's grip on my hand trembled, and she cursed, "That rascal! I'll call him right now and ask him what he thinks he's doing. Didn't he say there's nothing going on with that woman?" She let go of my hand and reached for her phone.
I flexed my hand to shake off the numbness. "Lindey, I've already talked to him at the office. He agreed to break up, and..." I hesitated before continuing, "He's even hired Tanya to work at the company." Saying all this today felt like tattling. Since that was the case, I might as well spill everything Jace had done.
"What?" They were visibly shocked, especially Matthew, whose face darkened.

However, small details like an individual hire weren't always on a chairman's radar.
Matthew didn't respond, but his eyes showed clear anger.
Lindey urged, "We need to call Jace back and ask him what's going on." I stopped them. Jace's presence would only complicate things.
"If you both find this unacceptable, imagine how I feel. He totally ignoredas his fiancée by bringing Tanya into the company after their scandal." "Rea, we'll make him get rid of her," Lindey said, grabbing my hand again.
"Lindey, the day before we were supposed to get married, he cut off all contact with Tanya right in front of me. But it didn't stop him from secretly accompanying her to her prenatal checkup the next day. Kicking Tanya out won't fix this," I said.
I pressed my lips together and continued, "The real issue is that Jace's heart is with her. For her, he's willing to lie and ignore everything else." Saying this left a bitter taste and a sense of humiliation. Despite all the years with Jace, I couldn't compete with a pregnant widow for his affection.
In the end, I lost.

"Even if you make Jace stay with me, his heart wouldn't be in it. A loveless marriage would just hurt me. If you really care about me, you wouldn't wantto go through a lifetof tears, right?" "Rea..." Lindey's eyes filled with tears: "Maybe Jace is just confused. Can't you give him another chance to think things over and make it right?" "Wait for what?" Matthew's voice was firm. "He's the one who hurt Rea. Why should she wait for him?" 1/2 +15 BONUS Matthew's words felt so protective, it brought a lump to my throat.
"Rea, it Jace doesn't know how to appreciate you, don't give him another chance. You deserve better. And you

Lindey, however, seemed flustered, glaring at him. "What are you talking about? I've already accepted Rea'as my daughter-in-law. I'm not letting her marry anyone else." Their exchange lightened the somber mood a bit. "Planning to have another son?" Matthew joked.
Before Lindey could respond, a familiar voice cfrom the doorway, "I think that's possible."
I looked up and saw Wayne, dressed casually, standing there with @m suitcase His eyes met mine, shining brightly.
