Wendy sighed. She had just spoken for Guinevere in front of Mr. and Mrs. Cohen earlier, so she did not
make things difficult for her. “You can go in and have a quick look. Go to bed early after that. You’re
staying with Weston today…” Wendy suddenly paused and gave her a meaningful look Guinevere
naturally understood what she meant and said nothing. She went to the children’s room and looked at
Zachary from a distance. Guinevere had left a mark on his neck when she strangled him. Her eyes
were a little guilty when she saw the mark
She had mixed feelings about the boy. His arrival was a simple joy for her. However, a small hatred
grew when she remembered what happened a year ago. She must not show her hatred. No one must
ever know.
She rested her hand on the rail of the cradle. As she clenched her fist, her fingertips almost sank into
her flesh.
The sudden pain cleared her mind a little.
The nanny next to her had been watching her movements. When she noticed the change in her
expression, she immediately stepped forward. She was worried that she would harm the child again.
Guinevere withdrew her hand and smiled at the nanny. Her face was so gentle, and she looked like a
different person from just now. “Well, he’s soundly asleep. I shouldn’t disturb him anymore.”
Then, she turned around and left the room. Wendy stared at her back and did not look away for a long
time. After that, the nanny came to Wendy and said, “Zack is asleep. Madam, we should get some rest
too.”
Wendy nodded. When she got back to her bedroom, Chris had already washed up and was lying on
the bed. He was lost in his thoughts. Wendy looked at him from afar and said nothing. She went
straight to the bathroom to wash up.
Wendy was still as beautiful as before, but the years that flew by left obvious traces on her face. She
closed her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror. Suddenly, her eyes grew vicious.
She took a long time to calm down. After that, she walked to the bedroom slowly and lay down next to
Chris. Chris had gone through a big shock today. He used to be a gorgeous gentleman that stood out
in his circle.
He was a loving husband with a good wise and harmonious family. Everyone envied him. How did it
come to this? He did not understand why.
Sometimes, it was just a simple mistake that led everything to a total loss.
If Wendy were to find out… Chris looked at the beautiful woman lying next to him. Her youth was gone
with the years that passed by. She was once proud of her beauty, but all that was left was just a hint of
her lost glamour.
Chris did not understand. What was he thinking back then? How did he make such a huge inistake?
An inexplicable feeling in his heart grew as he closed his eyes. He reached out his hands and took
Wendy into his arms. He whispered in her ear, “It’s been a long time since we’ve-” Before he could
finish, Wendy opened her eyes and looked at him coldly. “What do you want to do?”
Her eyes sent a chill down his spine. He felt like Wendy despised him a lot. The couple was much older
than before, but they did not practice abstinence in their relationship yet. However, the frequency had
decreased a lot. Wendy had never looked at him this way before. It was as if he was something dirty.
He had a hunch that Wendy knew something. However, Wendy’s expression softened in the next
second. She said to him softly, “Did I scare you? i’m just a little tired… I’m still a little startled by Gwen
earlier.” Chris hurriedly hugged her in his arms. “Don’t be afraid. I’m right here.” Wendy snuggled into
his arms and said nothing. However, her eyes gradually turned gloomier. Meanwhile, in Weston’s
bedroom. When Guinevere came in, Weston was already lying down on the sofa. Guinevere froze for a
moment and rushed to the man. “Weston, what do you mean by this?” Weston remained silent. He
rested with his hands under his neck and did not even look at her. “Get some rest. It has been a long
day.”
