"You can do that again. You're only possessive of me because we've known each other for so long, and your feelings have turned twisted."Claire suddenly became agitated. "You don't know me at all, so don't tell me what my feelings are for you! I like you, I love you! When I chose someone else back then, I had my reasons. If I could've stayed, I would've stayed. Don't forget, it was me who fell for you first. No matter what, I'm willing to love you more. You can't deny that."Life played a cruel joke on me. Every time I wanted to choose, it made me lose something as important as you. But when I finally realized my mistake, you chose another woman. Sherman, can't you give me another chance? Or did you marry Rita just to spite me? You two barely know each other. How could you spend your life with her?"Claire cried uncontrollably, wetting Sherman's chest with her tears.It was heart-wrenching for Sherman to see her like that. He could not help but urge Rita, "Did you call the ambulanc

Chapter 2882

Rita was confused. "How is this my fault? Miss Claire was the one who came here to kick up a fuss. If you've looked into it, you should know I didn't steal her boyfriend. She and Sherman had never been together, so what does this have to do with me? She publicly accused me of something I didn't do, so I'm the victim here.""Why you! You think you're so smart, don't you? Have you forgotten who's in charge here?"He had been groveling in front of Sherman like a sycophant, bending over backward to please him despite his age, yet when it came to Rita, he behaved arrogantly."You're in charge of course, but what does that have to do with whether I did something wrong or not? Just because you're my supervisor, does that give you the right to falsely accuse me too? I haven't done anything wrong, no matter what anyone says!""You… You… You… Who's your boss? Bring him here. I want to see who raised such a disobedient reporter like you."The other onlookers started slowly dispersing on thei

"I need to know, even if I can't accept the answer!"The doctor, who was growing irked, beside them kept urging, "Sir, please give her an answer. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to treat her wound. The bleeding hasn't stopped yet. We can't joke around with a person's life like this."Sherman looked at Claire, tears welling up in her eyes, and finally nodded."I know you have your reasons for all the choices you've made. It's been so long, and I've forgiven you a long time ago."However, Claire did not feel relieved at his answer. Instead, her heart broke even more. She would rather he got angry at her. At least then it would mean he still had not let her go.Realization dawned on Claire that Sherman had moved on from their relationship. Her heart grew colder, and she stopped struggling. Seizing the opportunity, the doctor and nurse pushed her into the room for further treatment.Outside the room, Sherman sat alone on a chair, looking at the blood on his hands. He sighed heavily.

Sherman sounded impatient, and Rita could not help but feel like he was mocking her. She did not dare to speak anymore.She would just chalk her earlier thoughts down as her delusions and refrained from asking Sherman the question she really wanted to ask him."Do you have any other questions?"Sherman knew she still had other doubts when he noted her hesitance, but he did not expect her to shake her head."You must be tired. Let me buy you a bottle of water," said Rita.Sherman did not understand why she looked so upset.'Shouldn't she be happy to hear that there's nothing going on between me and Claire? Just what the heck is this woman thinking?'Rita felt sad, especially about her own family. It was not like she could cut them off from her life, but at the same time, she did not have the right to openly express her feelings for Sherman.She longed to return to the past when they were not bound by so many interests. Back then, she would have asked without hesitation. She was

The two did not have to wait long. Claire's wound could have been treated quickly, but due to her public figure status and the desire to avoid obvious scars on her head, they had to use cosmetic stitches to handle it delicately.As soon as Claire emerged, she loudly called out Sherman's name. Sherman immediately stood up and walked to her bed, helping wheel her into her ward along with the other nurses."Miss Claire, how are you feeling now? Are you still feeling dizzy?"Seeing this, Rita also went over to help. However, as soon as Claire saw her, her smile turned sour. "What are you doing here?""Of course I'm here. I came to take care of you since you've been admitted to the hospital. After all, Sherman's a man and might be clumsy in many ways, unlike us women who are more detail-oriented. Plus, we still need to clear up the misunderstanding from before. I need to explain to you properly that I didn't steal Sherman from you."Claire lay on the hospital bed, her mouth twisted wit

"Who do you think you're fooling with your fake concern? Is that how you've managed to trick Sherman into marrying you? Well, let me warn you: he might not see through it, but I certainly do. So stop pretending in front of me. You're just jealous of me, aren't you? I've known him for so long, but what about you? Just a few months, and you think you know him? You're not even worthy of being with him!"Sherman quickly intervened with a stern frown, "Claire, she's my wife. I won't allow you to speak to her like that."Claire's tears started flowing. "You've never scolded me before, but now you're scolding me for this woman? Oh, my head hurts. Doctor... Please call the doctor!"Seeing Claire in distress, Rita panicked. "Sherman, she...""Quick, go get the doctor. Don't panic."Rita rang the bell and rushed out to call the doctor. The nurse arrived promptly, checked Claire's wound, which was not bleeding, and scolded them both, "The patient needs rest. Her emotions must be kept stable,

Rita turned to look at him with a pleasant smile, but her expression faltered when Sherman's phone rang. She caught sight of the caller ID displaying her father's name. "Why is he calling you again?""If even you don't know, how would I know? Perhaps you should go back and ask your father what he's done to drive his company to this state of ruin." Sherman's tone dripped with disdain."Don't answer his calls anymore. He's probably asking you for money again. I'll talk to him when I get back. Things weren't this bad before. How could he recklessly squander everything when he has a baby boy coming?"Sherman's expression grew darker with each word Rita spoke. He could guess exactly what Vince was doing—Vince was treating him like a free ATM. After all, even Rita could guess it. He could tolerate it once for Rita's sake, but he would not tolerate anyone continuously draining him.The interruption from her father made Rita no longer want to ask Sherman anything else. She even felt too as

Sadie even changed her surname.Rita decided to wait until the next day before going back to her father's place; there were some questions she needed to ask Karen in person.She did not plan on telling her father about this for the time being. With so much happening lately, coupled with the fact that Karen was pregnant with a baby boy, telling him would not likely make any difference. She needed to hold onto this leverage and use it to her advantage at the right moment.Despite all the troubles, life went on as usual. Rita focused on her work, and she planned to think about her future once she wrapped up the case. Over the years, she had received invitations to join the entertainment industry, but she always declined. She disliked that industry at the time, and as a heiress, she did not need to compete with others for a living.However, things had changed. She had her own things to do; she could no longer rely on the allowances her father gave her.'It might not be so bad to work

Chapter 2889

Vince found it intolerable for the money to be a loan. After all, that money rightfully belonged to him, so why should Rita want to repay Sherman?Rita refused to tell her father why. She could not let him ruin her plan since she had decided to repay the money.At that moment, Karen—visibly pregnant—came downstairs."What are you doing coming down?" asked Vince."Rita rarely comes home for a visit. Why do you insist on driving her away? Can't we all sit and talk as a family?" replied Karen.Rita could not help but roll her eyes inwardly at the sight of Karen. However, she had questions for her, so she forced herself to remain calm.Vince turned to face Karen with disgust. "Do you know what Rita's saying? She wants to pay back the money the Parr family gave us! Can you believe it? If I didn't know her any better, I'd think she's crazy! That amount of money is like chump change to them, whereas it can set us up for life!"Rita, even if you don't think about yourself, you should th

Rita took a deep breath. It seemed that Karen had come prepared, and Rita wondered what surprises Sadie had in store for her upstairs. Nevertheless, since she was there, she had to make the best of it. At least that was what she told herself.Knock, knock, knock!"Sadie, Dad wants you to come downstairs for lunch. Your mother is hungry," Rita called out.Sadie became visibly irritated upon hearing Rita's voice. "Alright, got it. You can go downstairs now."Rita did not care whether Sadie actually came down. After receiving a response, she immediately headed downstairs.Karen looked surprised to see Rita entering the dining room alone. "Rita, I asked you to call Sadie. Why hasn't she come down yet?""I did call her, and she asked me to come down first, so I did.""Oh... Is that so?" Karen continued to glance upstairs, but there was no sign of movement. Even Rita took a quick look."Are you sure you called Sadie? Why isn't she coming down yet?" asked Vince.Rita was speechless.
