The next day. Niamh woke up early and went for another body check in the hospital. After she got the results, she submitted to her fate.
Looking at the results, Niamh started to tear up.
‘Oh Kendrick. I thought I’d at least be able to pester you for a lifetime despite you hating me and resenting me. However, I never expected my life to be so short…”
She was walking on the street in a dazed state when she received a text from a stranger.
When she opened it, she saw a video.
It was the video of her being accused of stealing the bracelet.
Coincidentally, it had captured the exact moment when Nevaeh secretly put the bracelet in her pocket.
Niamh did not know who was the one who sent the video. but she thanked them immediately.
She did not overthink things and called a car to go to Kendrick’s office.
Even if she did not have much time to live, she did not want to allow that vile and cruel woman to continue fooling Kendrick.
She arrived at the building of Waldburg Corporation. When she told the receptionist who she was, the person looked at her with wonder in their eyes.
When Niamh walked to the lift. she could hear a lot of discussions going on about her behind her back. She opened Twitter and saw that the incident the night prior was trending.
The comments were all scolding her and calling her light-fingered. In addition to that, they also said that an ugly duckling like her would always be an ugly duckling. Even after marrying an excellent man like
Kendrick, she would still be cheap.
Niamh grabbed her phone and ran to Kendrick’s office. He had just finished a meeting when he spotted Niamh running over. His eyes were cold. “Why are you here? Don’t you know how popular you are now?”
He was talking about what had happened the night before.
Niamh opened the video that had anonymously been sent to her and handed it over to him.
“Look closely. Look at who’s the real thief.”
Kendrick finished watching the video, and there was a blank expression on his face. “Where did you get this?” he asked with a cold voice.
Niamh felt that it was preposterous. “Is where I got it from important? Isn’t the truth that you’re looking at more important?”
“The truth?” Kendrick lifted his head and deleted the video with a swipe of his finger. He even deleted the backup copy of it that was in Niamh’s album.
Niamh was beyond shocked by his actions. She ran over hysterically to take back her phone. However, it was too late. He had emptied the deleted album folder.
“Kendrick, why? Why did you do that? Are you unaware of how many people are criticizing me online now? That was the only video that could have proven my innocence!”
Niamh broke down.
However, Kendrick scoffed indifferently. “What does your innocence have to do with me?
Anything will suffice as long as Nevaeh is happy.”
Kendrick’s question made Niamh speechless.
Her innocence and life had nothing to do with him!
He only cared about Nevaeh. Thus, even though that woman had done something despicable. to him, it was still tolerable.
It was all because he loved her. He was blinded by love: he loved her so much that he had no principles.
All of a sudden, Niamh calmed down. She looked at the man in front of her, and she could feel tears stinging the corners of her eyes. “Kendrick. would it be fine even if I were to be cyberbullied to death by netizens one day?”
Kendrick did not lift his head. “Would you die?”
His answer was cold. It was like a sharp knife that pierced her heart. Inch by inch, the gut- wrenching pain spreaded from her heart to her entire body.
Niamh clenched her fists. The man’s handsome face was blurry due to her tears. “Kendrick.
I hope you can be as indifferent as you are now when that day comes.”
Upon saying that. Niamh left and did not turn around. Tears could be seen rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.
She could just forget the wrongful devotion she had had for him throughout the past 12 years. She was in disbelief that she had fallen for such a man.
Niamh ran out of the building. and it started raining. She was in a daze and thus did not notice a car charging toward her.
“Screech!” An ear-piercing screech was heard as the brakes tightened. and Niamh lifted her head. Her vision was blurry because of the rain and her tears. Hence. she could only vaguely see a man getting out of the vehicle before running toward her. Before she could see his face, she passed out.
When Niamh woke up. the sky was dark.
She looked around her and realized she was in a refined apartment. Nonetheless, it was foreign.
The moment she sat up. a handsome and tall man walked in through the door.
After looking at him for a few seconds, Niamh asked in disbelief. “Dan?”
Daniel Graham smiled gently. “Long time no see, Niamh.”
It had indeed been a long time. Ever since Daniel graduated from high school. Niamh did not see him anymore.
“I asked my private doctor to take a look at you just now. He said you’re fine.” Daniel handed Niamh a glass of warm water as he spoke.
Niamh smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry. Dan. I caused so much trouble for you.”
“It isn’t trouble at all. Everything’s fine as long as you’re okay.” Dan’s answer warmed
Niamh’s heart.
However, when she recalled what Kendrick had said, she felt her heart break once more.
Perhaps this was the consequence of delusional and one-sided love.
It was late, and Niamh wanted to go home. However. Daniel had ordered takeout from a five-star hotel. The entire table was filled.
Niamh did not want Daniel’s good intentions to go to waste. so she stayed and had dinner with him. After dinner, Daniel insisted on sending Niamh home.
When the car arrived in front of the villa, Dan said out of the blue. “My doctor told me you’re pregnant. Does Kendrick know?”
Niamh was halted in her tracks. She turned her head around and saw that the moon light was shining on Daniel’s handsome face. His eyes looked kind.
“He does. Of course. my husband knows that I’m pregnant.” Niamh forced a smile and got out of the car. “Thank you, Dan. I’ll buy you dinner next time.”
Daniel nodded and smiled. “I’ll wait for you to call me, Niamh.”
