There was a moment of silence over there, and then Liam's restrained voice came:
" Vanessa , we agreed that we would just get married and not interfere with my feelings ."
"But you still came to pick me up, didn't you? Then tell me, why did you leave your girlfriend in the hospital and come pick me up from dozens of kilometers away?"
Clara's breath caught in her throat as she listened to their conversation .
She opened her mouth several times, but no sound came out. Although she should have known the answer, her throat was still choked and painful.
Liam 's voice was hoarse and weak. "Yes, I just can't forget you. Are you satisfied? Five years ago, it was because you cruelly left me that I went out to drink and met Clara, who looked exactly like you. "
Clara was completely stunned, as if she had been sentenced to death. She heard the sound of saliva mixing on the other end, and she quickly hung up.
It turns out that in the past five years, she just appeared at the right time, a substitute?
Even though she knew about Liam's betrayal and had already decided to leave, she still couldn't believe that the five years between them were nothing but lies and deception.
After a while, a friend request suddenly appeared on the phone. After it was approved, a message was sent.
"I'm Vanessa, Liam's childhood sweetheart and his wife. I know you've heard everything, Miss Clara. Face the reality. You and he are from completely different worlds. Leave him as soon as possible. You might even get a breakup fee that will allow you to live a better life away from the village . That would be the greatest compensation for you. Stop wishful thinking. "
" Liam told me a long time ago that you're just a girl with no family background, and you can only stay outside as a Kept Woman . He also said..." The woman paused, her tone full of sarcasm, "He also said that you can't even keep a child. It's just right, so I don't have to worry about it."
" You don't know yet, do you? He told you that when he went on business trips abroad, he was actually accompanying me. "
Clara stood in the heavy rain, leaning on a cane, soaked all over.
She took a deep breath and wiped the rain off her face. There were still four days before the end of the training, and she had to go back to Liam's house. There were some documents and a keepsake left in Liam's house.
