Chapter 251 You Don’t Love Me That Much
“What are you doing?”
Seeing him like this, Charlotte was furious. “It’s grandpa who invited me here. He said that you were in a bad state.”
She looked at him coldly, “Who would have thought that Mr. Smith, who was so high up, would fall to such a state? It was just for a woman.”
Joe’s dull brain cleared up a bit, he stood up, looked deeply at Charlotte, and didn’t speak.
“You can’t get over Wendy Swan, can you? Even if she cheated on you? If you can’t let go, just…” Charlotte sighed heavily. Before she could continue, Joe interrupted her, “Who says I can’t get over her?”
Charlotte was stunned. “Don’t you deeply love Wendy Swan? Before we divorced, you…”
Joe closed his eyes and said, “I’ve never loved Wendy.”
“What?” Charlotte looked at Joe incredulously. “Who in this circle doesn’t know that you are deeply in love with her, and you even divorced me for her…”
“Because I regard her as my savior, because she wanted that.” Joe looked at Charlotte with a deep gaze.
When he was kidnapped back then, if it wasn’t for the existence of the little girl and her stopping the kidnapper in the end, he might not have been able to escape at all. Especially when he came back and saw the intrigue among those relatives, Joe was even more grateful to her.
A stranger could even do this for him, but his so–called relatives only focused on calculating.
Later, Joe couldn’t find that girl anywhere, and he turned her into his obsession.
It was not that Wendy had succeeded in deceiving him, but rather that Joe’s obsession made him subconsciously ignore the unreasonable things and never deeply investigate her identity.
If Wendy hadn’t done all these step by step, her scam might not. have been exposed.
In short, Joe didn’t care who was his wife. Since Wendy wanted this identity, he gave it to her.
“As for you and me…” Joe’s voice was still hoarse. “I always thought that you had set me up, plus grandpa’s persecution…”
“Sorry.”
When the truth was stripped away bit by bit and presented in front of him, Joe finally realized how wrong he was.
He lowered his head slightly, feeling regret for the first time.
Charlotte stood in place for a long time, she had never heard Joe say these things, nor did she think that he thought so.
“So… now you find that the person you love deeply is actually me?” Charlotte asked mockingly after an unknown amount of
time.
Joe looked away in embarrassment and didn’t speak.
Charlotte’s gaze seemed to keep looking into Joe’s eyes: “Just because you knew that the little girl back then was me. So, even though you dismissed me so much before, you still fall in love with me now?”
“No…”
Before Joe finished speaking, Charlotte interrupted him.
“No, you don’t love me that much.” Charlotte looked at Joe with certainty, “What you love is just the perfect little girl in your imagination and the guilt you feel towards me after you knew the truth.”
Joe sat on the bed and looked at Charlotte.
Maybe he didn’t get it before, but now he is very sure of his thoughts, he pounded for Charlotte.
