Chapter 48: Fred Reads Elena’s Phone Messages
Five years, she could live without Fred Garner, but not without her two children, what to do? How about resigning now?
Elena decided not to think about it for a while, and decided to go back to her room to lie down when the doorbell rang.
Looking in the direction of the door, Elena did not want to move, she really did not have any appetite. The doorbell rang a few times and then disappeared. Elena thought the delivery person had left and didn’t want to pay attention to it, but just as she got up, the door was opened from the outside.
“Elena, what are you doing? Didn’t you hear me ring the doorbell?” Fred Garner, carrying his takeout, just stared at Elena.
“I’m not hungry.” Elena was stunned for a long time before she said softly.
“I knew it, you woman, after all these years, you still can’t take care of yourself?” It was clear that Fred Garner’s anger had not faded.
Hearing Fred Garner’s sarcastic tone, Elena’s suppressed emotions, as well as the uneasiness caused by today’s encounter, all exploded and she couldn’t help but yell at Fred Garner.
“Fred Garner, will you stop with the preachy look? I’m tired, I just want to rest now, can you please leave quietly, if I’m really hungry, I’ll find my own food, haven’t I lived just as well without you for the past five years?”
Fred Garner was dumbfounded to see Elena get angry for the first time, and he didn’t wake up from his shock until Elena entered the room and closed the door with a bang.
Fred Garner did not knock, nor did he leave immediately, but sat down in the living room.
Did he really have to care too much? He just cares about her. Five years have passed, has time changed Elena? They are no longer the same ‘newlywed’ couple of five years ago? Or has she been seeing someone else for the past five years?
The thought of another man in Elena’s life during the five years he had waited for her made Fred Garner feel a rage to kill. In the past five years, although he did not go abroad to look for her, but the name Elena has been engraved into his heart, she is his only wife, how can she do this to him?
Fred Garner wanted to rush into the room and ask for clarification, but thinking of Elena’s outburst just now, he held back.
…… finally he opened Elena’s handbag and took out the phone inside.
Fred Garner’s hand was shaking a bit, it was the first time he did something like this, he opened the message directly, in addition to the one he sent, the other messages were actually sent by a man named ‘James’.
He couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy in his heart and couldn’t help but open one.
‘Honey, are you asleep? I miss you so much, when will you come back.’ Once he opened it, it was the meaty name, the intimate tone, which made Fred Garner’s adrenaline shoot up.
Then he couldn’t resist opening a second one: Baby, I miss you so much, you didn’t even tell me a story tonight, I couldn’t sleep.
Fred Garner frantically looked through the messages, each one was a fleshy name, ambiguous tone, he was going crazy.
He didn’t even think about it, he switched over to that number, he must find out who that man is? Otherwise he will go crazy, he needs to know that James man and Elena is what relationship? Could it be her lover?
At this time, it was early morning in Italy, not yet time to wake up, he was sleeping, the phone rang for a long time before someone answered.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“Elena, calling at this hour ……”
“Who is this?” Fred Garner face is even more gloomy, the other party speaks French, listen to the voice seems to be still in sleep, but Fred Garner does not want to hear him say meat, directly in a questioning tone.
“You’re not Elena? May I ask if you are ……” The other party was stunned and paused for a moment before saying.
“Shut up, you are James, you and ……”
Fred Garner was questioning James over and over when Elena’s bedroom opened and she was standing there, “Fred Garner, what are you doing?”
Elena went back to her bedroom, didn’t hear a knock on the door, and didn’t hear Fred Garner’s voice, and quickly calmed down, feeling as if she had just gone a little overboard, and wanted to come out and see if Fred Garner was gone, but to her surprise, she opened the door and saw Fred Garner yelling at her with her phone.
“Elena, who is this James?” Fred Garner didn’t feel guilty or surprised to hear Elena’s voice, but instead turned to question Elena.
Elena didn’t want to explain much, she believed in clarity, moreover, Fred Garner even questioned in such a tone, there was no need to explain, so she held out her hand and said, “Fred Garner, give me back the phone.”
“Elena, no wonder you won’t say ‘yes’ no matter what I say, so, so you have a new love, so, what did you come back for this time?” Fred Garner did not hand the phone to Elena, but asked in a stern and angry voice.
Even if James called, he didn’t have to be jealous, right?
“James is my friend, also considered my benefactor, such an answer, I don’t know if Mr. Fred can be satisfied?”
She had experienced a lot over the years, and Elena could handle anything rationally, but at this moment, she was really a bit sullen.
But now, she does not want to quarrel with Fred Garner, and there is no need to quarrel, she and James are innocent of each other.
“Friends? Elena, don’t kid yourself. What kind of friends would be so ambiguous and use such intimate names?” Fred Garner was tempted to sink his teeth into it, but looking at the text messages on her phone, he really wanted to strangle Elena.
Over the years, he had always kept his distance from women, for one thing because he didn’t trust them, and for another, because of Elena, but now what? The woman he had been waiting for, his wife, was no different from any other woman, so how could he not be angry and jealous?
Elena froze, and then somehow understood that it must be her son texting on James’ phone again, but this time, she really couldn’t explain to Fred Garner, and she hadn’t decided whether to tell him about the baby or not.
“Believe it or not, I have a clear conscience.” Elena snatched the phone from Fred Garner’s hand and turned to go back to her room, only to be yanked into Fred Garner’s arms.
“Fred Garner, you ……” Elena was shocked, she didn’t expect Fred Garner to be so savage all of a sudden.
“Is that your explanation? Or have you long forgotten that you are married?” Fred Garner looked at the face in front of him without any semblance of guilt, and the blood rushed straight to his head.
“Fred Garner, I don’t have to explain anything to you, even if we are married, I have the freedom to make friends, not to mention that James and I don’t have anything.” Elena looked straight at Fred Garner and didn’t get too angry, to put it another way, she pretended he was jealous, it would make her feel better.
“Elena, are you thinking that I, Fred Garner, am stupid? Is that a normal name for a friend to call each other?” Fred Garner wanted to retrieve the phone from Elena’s hand, Elena’s hand retracted, if it was just James she didn’t mind showing him, but there was a message back to her child inside, if Fred Garner read it, then he would know.
“All these years I’ve been living abroad, those names aren’t too ambiguous, are they?” Elena jerked away from Fred Garner, she didn’t like being questioned like that, not to mention she did have privacy.
Fred Garner was stunned, he had lived abroad too, and honey, put abroad, it really wasn’t much, but what about that good miss you?
He looked at Elena, not that he didn’t suspect, it was just that they were so easily reunited, he didn’t want to just give up, he sincerely hoped it really was him thinking too much, and then he looked at Elena’s expression, she was really open, just let it go?
“Well, what about the fact that I miss you? How do you explain that one, Elena, don’t challenge my patience, I’m not interested in cuckolding.” Fred Garner forced down his anger and decided to show his cards to Elena.
Originally Fred Garner was thinking of re-proposing to Elena in the Spring and making up for her wedding, but now he had changed his mind.
Five years, in the absence of clear Elena these five years of life abroad, he will not hastily married, of course, will not be easily divorced, these five years, Elena but topped his Fred Garner wife identity, if, if she really has to ……
“Thank you for the reminder, I came back this time precisely to solve the problem between us.” Elena gave a surprisingly provocative smile.
This man, really think she is a kitten, just all these years outside, she is used to showing people with seemingly soft side, just do not want to cause trouble, she in the attitude of more trouble is better than less trouble to deal with, did not expect him to say more and more difficult to hear, really too much.
“Settlement, do you want a divorce?” Fred Garner yelled frantically.
“The door is there, please excuse me for being too sick to see you off.” Elena, who had kept a safe distance from Fred Garner, pointed her finger in the direction of the door.
What she really wanted to do was to kick him out, since she was no match for him, she had to avoid him. Elena quickly moved to the bedroom, but she didn’t expect the man to be incredibly strong once he caught the rage, and she also stepped into the bedroom and ran into a wall of human flesh.
“Want to kick me out? It’s not that easy, today I give you two choices, one is you move in with me, or I move in.” Fred Garner wrapped his hands tightly around Elena’s chest, and although he didn’t use violence, his arms had Elena firmly locked to his chest.
“Fred Garner, don’t you get ahead of yourself, you give me back my keys and get out immediately.” Fred Garner’s lock was so tight that Elena found it a little hard to even breathe, but she was determined not to compromise.
