Lucas was sitting by the passenger seat looking at his phone. When he heard the car door open, he instinctively turned to look. Then, he resumed his nonchalant ways. “How long will Mr. Morrison take?”
Bethan lowered her eyes and sent Natasha a message. “
I don’t know.”
“You’re quite generous.”
Lucas changed into a comfortable position. “You know that Ms. Peterson and Mr. Morrison were once a pair. How are you comfortable leaving them alone? Aren’t you afraid that they might rekindle their love for each other? “
Bethan continued using her phone and said without looking up. “So? What does that have to do with me?”
“Don’t you care?” “Do I need to care?”
Lucas furrowed his brows and turned to look at Bethan.
“But, why do I feel that you like Mr. Morrison? You like him secretly.”
Bethan was texting when she paused for a while.
After a while, she chuckled lightly, “You’re overthinking this.”
Even if she liked Brettley, it was six years ago.
At that moment, she could barely even hate him, let alone like him.
When she just finished saying that, her phone suddenly vibrated.
Natasha replied, (I will see you at your place tonight]. Bethan furrowed her brows. [Okay].
Neil and her belongings had been moved to Blue Bay Villa. Natasha wanting to see her at their old place was a good choice. At least, Bethan could say that she wanted to search for some things as an excuse to see Natasha.
This reason was much more reliable than saying she was going to buy something. Brettley would not doubt her then.
In the room of the mental asylum.
Cynthal was sitting on the chair with messy hair. She looked at the man in front of her aloofly.
She has liked this man for many years.
If it were not for Bethan Peterson, she would have been his wife!
Back then, Bethan stole the position of his wife from her.
At that moment, Bethan Peterson has assumed the identity of Bethan, stealing from her once again.
Bethan truly deserved to die!
“I sent my men to check up on you.”
Brettley looked at Cynthal’s face. “Back then, not long after Bethan’s death, you went in for an operation at the Obstetrics and Gynecology department. It has been too long ago, we can’t check the details of the operation.”
He glared at Cynthal coldly. “I’m asking you, what operation did you do at the hospital?”
Cynthal squinted her eyes.
Without a doubt, Bethan Peterson must have told him about this.
She sneered. Clearly, Bethan Peterson was still assuming another identity, if not, Brettley would not react this way.
At that thought, Cynthal smiled. “Brettley, do you want to hear the truth?”
Brettley slightly narrowed his eyes. He said nothing. Cynthal laughed maniacally. “I did go to the OB-GYN
for an operation. It was to repair my hymen.”
Brettley looked at her. His gaze turned colder. “For real?”
“Of course.”
Cynthal chuckled gently and derided, “If you don’t believe me, do you want to experience it yourself?”
Brettley frowned at her provocative yet mocking tone. “You did not do an abortion?”
“I was never pregnant, why should I get an abortion?”
Cynthal tidied her hair. She sneered, “Before Bethan had her accident, I had a few boyfriends. I have long lost my virginity. However, after Bethan’s death, you said you were willing to follow the instructions on her will to be my fiance on paper, so I went to restore my hymn, hoping you would sleep with me one day.”
Then, Cynthal laughed self-deprecatingly, “Who knew that this layer of the hymen has been in my body for six years. None has touched it yet.”
The vein on Brettley’s head popped at her words.
All this while, she has treated Cynthal as his sister. She was Bethan’s closest sister, also his closest sister.
He never had any other thoughts other than taking good care of her.
How would he have expected that Cynthal has been planning to get in bed with him since five years ago!
Brettley furrowed his brows hard. He glared at Cynthal angrily. “But I have already said that I am your brother-in-law! I will never sleep with you!” “Who’s to say?”
Cynthal flatly smiled. She looked at Brettley calmly. “
Back then, when you married Bethan, you also said that you won’t fall in love with her, but you still did. When Bethan died, you said that you won’t like another person in this life, but you like the beautiful Bethan, don’t you?”
Cynthal smiled derisively. “Since you could go back on your word with them, why not with me?”
She lifted her gaze and looked at Brettley rather manically. “I have been by your side for so many years. Why do you not see me? You keep saying that you only have Bethan Peterson in your heart, but your eyes have already sold you out. You like Bethan, don’t you? If you could like her, why could you not like me? I don’t mind sharing with her.”
“Brettley, I have liked you for a very long time! Even longer than Bethan! “
Cynthal looked at Brettley passionately, like a starving beggar looking at a scrumptious meal.
Manic, greed, and some impatience.
She looked at Brettley closely. “If you can like Bethan, why can’t you like me? After all, you’ll be betraying Bethan Peterson. Does it matter if you betray her once or twice?”
She said while moving her hands and feet.
The entire room was filled with her crazy voice, mixed with the clanging of the chains.
Brettley furrowed his brows hard.
“It looks like this place suits you a lot.”
He stood up and looked at Cynthal without an ounce of warmth in his eyes. “But, I still have to let you know. One, you keep saying that Bethan Peterson is dead. She is not dead. Two, I will wait for her to come back. You too. Lastly…”
Brettley looked at Cynthal coldly. “I have never betrayed Bethan Peterson.”
He will admit that he felt something with Bethan, but he felt that it was because Bethan looked a lot like Bethan Peterson, that was it.
“Last time, I always felt that you were her sister that she loved the most, so I pampered you and let you have your way, but I forgot to pay attention to your inner thoughts.”
Brettley sneered, “If I knew that you thought of me this way, I would have sent you here earlier.”
Then, Brettley turned around and left.
“You dare to swear that you have not fallen in love with Bethan?”
Cynthal looked at Brettley’s back tightly. “Since you said that you still love Bethan Peterson, then swear to me. Swear that you will never like Bethan! “
Brettley stopped in his tracks.
He did not turn back but only chuckled lightly and said, “Why should I swear to a crazy person?”
Then, Brettley slammed the door shut.
Cynthal sat there in a daze, looking at the grills that shut the door.
After a while, she stood up manically and kicked the table!
No. She could no longer stay here anymore. Bethan was Bethan Peterson!
If she continued to stay there, the news that Bethan was Bethan Peterson would be exposed sooner or later.
