His answer is like a hammer hitting me heavily and I stand there dumbfounded.
What Hilda said is true?
Did Frances marry Hilda?
I don't care if they got married at home or abroad, or if their marriage is recognized at home or not. In
my opinion, their marriage is real.
They have a child.
How am I supposed to accept this?
Why don't I know all of this before I am devoted to him?
I stare blankly at Frances, unable to say a word for a long time.
All of this is too hard for me to accept.
"Jane, tell me, did she come looking for you? What did she tell you?"
Frances walks over and looks at me anxiously.
I pulled out a bitter smile and whispered, "What else could she say? She told me that you are married
and have a child. Frances, who am I to you? Did you marry her before or after Whitney? Am I a home
wrecker?"
It's so ironic and so funny.
I can't help but laugh. However, tears fall from the corner of my eyes.
I am painful.
I don't know what to do.
If Frances tells me that he loves Hilda, can I leave without hesitation?
Frances sits beside the bed and hugs me tightly.
"Jane, stop thinking nonsense. The truth is not what you think. Calm down first. I'll slowly tell you the
truth."
I look up at Frances and grab his arm tightly, as if I am grabbing the life-saving straw.
Perhaps, only a reasonable explanation can save me.
I only hope that the so-called truth is not too cruel.
Frances tightens his hold on me.
He leans his head gently against mine and explains in a low voice, "Listen. When I was studying in
California, I met my best friend in my life, Terence. Hilda was his girlfriend. Terence is the leader of a
gang. I know a lot about what he did. As a friend, I tried to persuade him to get out of the game, but he
never listened to me."
"Later, I returned home."
It turns out that Hilda was his friend's woman.
What happened afterwards? How did things reach that point?
I am very curious and look at Frances. He has been lost in his memories, and his eyes are filled with
deep sorrow.
I don't disturb him and listen to him quietly.
"The business of Louis Group is broad, you know. Naturally we offend a lot of people. I almost got
assassinated on a business trip to the United States. At that time, I was having dinner with Terence in a
restaurant. Several people rushed in and shot at me. As for Terence, he died because he took a bullet
for me. Terence had saved my life, so I have to take good care of Hilda. "
"And then? Why did you marry her?"
I finally ask.
I can't do anything about it. This problem is too important to me. What I am most concerned about is
also this problem.
"At that time, Hilda was pregnant. After Terence died, Hilda was inconsolable. She even wanted to die
with Terence. Later, for the sake of the child, she forcefully bore up. She was the one who proposed to
get married."
