Chapter 6
As she spoke, she slapped Aaron’s leg.
Aaron let out a wail, slurring, “Mom, I was wrong.”
It was the first time he admitted his mistake.}
My mother–in–law looked at him with great disappointment and said, “If you know you were wrong, then stop fooling around, work hard, and be a good role model for your son.”>
Aaron nodded obediently, then seemed to remember something.”
“Yesterday, Jillian was there too. Nicole, did you tell Mr. Duncan?“@
Both my mother–in–law and Aaron looked at me.!
I blinked innocently and said, “I got drunk yesterday and accidentally told Jillian. As for why Mr. Duncah went, I don’t know.“>
So what if I was the one who leaked the information? He had no proof.”
“Why did you tell Jillian?”
Aaron pressed, but my mother–in–law interrupted him directly.”
“The one who did wrong was you, and you still have the nerve to blame Nicole. Let me tell you, if this happens again, you’ll be kicked out of the Anderson family. We can’t afford to be disgraced like this.”}
After nagging a bit, my mother–in-law left.
It was just Aaron and me, staring at each other.§
I pulled over a chair, sat down, and started scrolling through videos on my phone, coincidentally coming across a clip of Aaron being beaten.!
He was shirtless, pinned to the ground by the bodyguards, looking truly miserable.
Aaron heard the sound and turned his head to look at me.
Didn’t look!
“This video is trending. The people below the comments are gloating. Aaron, you’re popular.”}
He grabbed his hair irritably.
“Shut up! It’s all your fault. Now everyone on the Internet is laughing at me. Their words are so unpleasant.”
“It’s my fault?“D
“Yes, if you hadn’t supported me to cheat, how could I have made such a fool of myself? If you had controlled me more, would I have cheated, you useless thing?“>
Y
You were putting all the blame on me.
It was true that the most despicable man was invincible.
I shut my mouth and continued to watch the video with interest.
I felt that he was still too stubborn to be beaten.
I hoped he can restrain himself when he recovered.
Because of his injury, Aaron stayed at home to recuperate.
Jillian often came to visit him.
г
I took good care of Aaron and took care of his bad temper. Jilliani couldn’t stand it, so she advised me to get a divorce. “Nicole, what on earth do you want from him? He’s just a lame duckling. You can divorce him, but why waste your time on him?”
After I changed Aaron’s dressing, I was washing my hands. She followed me and kept chattering.
It seemed that she really cared about me.
“I didn’t waste time with him. He just likes to play. I can accept it.”
She stamped her feet.
“I really feel sorry for you. What is there for you to miss about him? In order to save him, you injured one of your hands and can no longer play the piano. Is it worth it? Now, he is so absurd, but you are still reluctant to leave him?”
When i was dating Aaron, an advertisement board fell from the building. He was making a phone call, so I didn’t pay attention to it. I quickly pushed him away. The advertisement board rubbed against my hand and hurt my muscles and bones. I couldn’t play the piano anymore.
I looked at my hand and was in a trance.}
But I can’t divorce him. The Duarte Group relied on the Anderson Group to survive. If I divorce him, Mom and Dad will be in a difficult situation.
Recently, Jillian asked me to divorce several times.
She couldn’t wait anymore?>
Jillian, in the name of a friend, accompanied Aaron for many years.
