Chapter 57 – Do you love your wife?
Lydia stammered for a while and could not even form coherent sentences.
Fortunately, amidst shock and fear, she remembered her purpose of coming to see Jonathan.
“President Smith, if you are not close with me, who are you close with? Your wife?” Lydia hissed, “Do you love your bitch wife now? Have you already forgotten how she had schemed to marry you before?”
Jonathan frowned at that and asked, “What nonsense are you talking about? What wife?”
Just as the words had left his lips, he remembered that he was indeed married before.
He had hated being forced to marry a stranger so much that he had rejected everything about her instinctively. He never thought of her, in fact, he actively rejected any thoughts about her.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Since she did not show up in front of him again, he soon forgot that he was even married.
Lydia’s words reminded him that he was married.
All this time, he had been thinking about Liliana and how she had a family of her own leaving no place for him in her life. He had often wondered who her husband was, who could leave his wife and children just like that.
But now he realized that he was worse than her husband. He had even forgotten that he was married, much less anything about his wife.
Lydia watched him as he went in a daze and his face became pale as realization hit him.
‘He does not remember that he is married. So, there is no way he would remember that bitch Liliana is his wife.’ Lydia thought jubilantly.
‘Does this mean that Liliana also does not remember who her husband is?’ This thought made her ecstatic.
She schooled her expressions and wore a pitiful one as she thumbed her glass on the table bringing Jonathan back from his daze.
“I have loved you for over a decade already. Even when you were forced into marriage, I was understanding and did not doubt your affections for me. Yet now you fell for a woman who already has a child with someone else. How could you do this to me, Jonathan?”
Lydia cried miserably.
Jonathan looked at her and his frown deepened indicating his heightened displeasure.
He could not believe that someone could be so shameless and pretentious.
‘Does she really think this act is believable?’
Jonathan was speechless with her horrible acting.
He cleared his throat and said, “Miss Aprice, I don’t have anything to do with you. I have not even gotten even with you for misleading my investigation and pretending to be someone else. I have not sued you for barging into the press conference. If you interrupt any Smith Group event again, I will personally see to it that Aprice Group goes bankrupt.”
He took a long pause and looked at her chillingly as he added, “And, don’t you dare slander, my wife, ever again!”
Jonathan stood up and left a sniveling Lydia without care.
