Chapter 7
As I listened to his pale and feeble defense, I couldn’t help but find it somewhat ridiculous.
Men always
try their best to beautify their infidelity, defining it as sibling–like affection. However, whether they have feelings or not, both themselves and others are well aware of it.
I spoke lightly, “You don’t have to tell me these things. If you want to believe, then believe. Don’t come and disturb us.”
After I finished speaking, I carried Cristofer back to the room. At the moment the door closed, I heard Harry crying his heart out.
I looked up at Cristofer with a confused expression in my eyes, feeling a bit lost in my heart.
He gently embraced me and sighed, “Valery, I will wait forever. Give me another chance to love
you.”
I nodded silently, further affirming the thoughts in my mind.
I knew Cristofer was busy with his business matters, but I never expected that he was busy sabotaging Harry’s company.
Christopher’s company was already a multinational corporation, and its domestic business clashed with Harry’s company. Many disputes had arisen before.
And this time, Cristofer even used the power of public opinion, putting our previous confrontation between me, Harry, and Janet all online, amplifying Harry’s anger.
Now everyone knew that the famous Mr. Mooney was a two–timing scumbag. Combined with the
previous business losses, it caused Harry to stumble and be kicked out by the board of directors.
I was originally puzzled about how Harry gave up that position so easily, but in a blink of an eye, he posted an apology statement on the internet.
An hour of apology, all of it was apologies to me.
In the video, he was wearing a simple shirt, and the brilliance that once shone in his eyes had long faded away, with his hair disheveled.
“All the previous revelations were true, and the harm I caused to Ms. Valery was also true, so willing to take responsibility for all the mistakes, as long as she can come back to me.”
“Valery, I was wrong. And, I love you, I have only loved you in my entire life.”

As soon as this video came out, women all over the internet were moved by it, as if they were putting themselves in the shoes of the protagonist, and they all started to question who they really
were.

Soon, all my information was exposed, even my past was thoroughly scrutinized, and everyone was pressuring me to come forward.
Christopher spent a lot of connections and money in order to reduce the attention on me, and finally managed to bring down the news.
Just when I had let out a sigh of relief, I never expected that Janet would come knocking at my door.
She still dressed brightly, with an innocent smile, but her eyes seemed like they wanted to devour me alive.
“Val as the most poi
leading lady recently, why don’t you come out and show yourself?”
“You didn’t know, did you? For so many days, Harry couldn’t sleep day and night because of you. He would shout your name in his sleep.”
I shrugged indifferently, indicating that I didn’t want to know.
She didn’t appreciate me at all. The mask of pretending to be gentle was torn apart, revealing a ferocious expression.
She took out several thick stacks of money from her bag and stuffed them into my hand without saying a word.
“I know you followed Harry for so many years just for a few bucks. These are not enough, I can write you a check. Leave Harry as soon as possible.”
I looked at her and then glanced at the stack of money, feeling amused.
She disdainfully stuffed the money into my hand and said, “What are you pretending to be reserved for at this time? Take it and get lost!”
But the next second, I lifted up the money and fiercely smashed it on her face!
I
“Are you crazy?”
Janet screamed in disbelief, looking disheveled at the money scattered on the floor and the bills stuck to her sheepskin coat.
The appearance was truly ridiculous.
Janet screamed instinctively, but abruptly stopped when she saw someone approaching,
Because she saw that the person coming was her beloved Harry.
