A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 82

Betty stared at me for a long time and suddenly said to me.

Ignoring Betty's words, I touched my hair and said, "If this is the reason why you asked me to come out, have you finished what you want to say? Can I leave now?"

Betty clenched her fists. Suddenly, she bent her knees and knelt down in front of me.

I was shocked, and my head was a little dizzy.

"Betty, what are you doing?" I looked at Betty and said coldly.

What kind of tricks was she playing?

Her beautiful face was pale. She looked at me and said in a hoarse voice, "Ashley, it was my fault in the past. I was jealous of you, so I framed you and even killed your child. It was all my fault, but... Edward was innocent. He just... didn't want my acting career to be ruined, so he helped me hide it. I know, I'm sorry. Please forgive me for what I did before."

"Do you think that what you said can make my child return to life after death?" I said coldly with a serious face.

I was not a kind woman, and I wouldn't forgive what she had done to me just because of her words.

There were tears in Betty's eyes. She clenched her fists and lowered her noble head, "I know that I am not qualified to let you forgive me. I won't ask for anything. I just... I want you to help Edward. He really needs your shares now. Do you really want to watch him go bankrupt?"

I clenched my fists and forced myself to be coldblooded.

"What will happen to him is his own business. It has nothing to do with me at all."

"Are you really... so cruel? Ashley, you loved Edward, didn't you? Otherwise, why did you take him away from me?"

"As you said, that was only the past. Now, I like to see you two suffer." I sneered. Looking at Betty, I felt a little happy.

Did she feel pain? However, she seemed to have forgotten that I was also in such pain in the past.

"Is that so? You just want to make me suffer." A deep voice sounded behind me, and the smile on my face instantly froze.

I slowly turned my head and saw Edward slowly coming in from outside the coffee.

I didn't know how long he had been standing there, but he was looking at me without any emotion.

His deep eyes caused my entire body to tremble slightly.

I felt nervous and my voice was trembling, "You... How could you..."

"So, everything you did was to make me feel pain, right?" Edward walked to me, and his face was gloomy.

I froze and couldn't say a word. At the same time, Betty said with tears in her eyes, "Edward, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I didn't treat Ashley badly before, she will give you the shares."

"Betty, get up." Edward walked in front of Betty and said in a deep voice.

However, Betty shook her head and looked at me with a firm face, "Ashley, what could I do to let you give the shares to Edward? Let me make a kowtow to you, okay?"

As she said, she really made a kowtow to me.

I looked at Betty, clenched my fists, and said coldly, Betty, continue to pretend. Do you think I will be fooled by you if you keep acting like this?"

Betty was good at pretending.

I wouldn't be fooled.

"Enough." Edward looked at Betty and suddenly growled at me.

I was scared because of his violent voice. I could only stare at him with stunned eyes.

Edward clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were cold as he sneered at me, "Ashley, isn't this your purpose? You want me to suffer, so you get close to me, saying that you want to be my mistress. You used your own body as a weapon in order to let me be infatuated with your body, right?"

"Yes." I suppressed the pain in my heart and said coldly.

"That's my purpose."

"So... you gave the contract to William, didn't you?" Edward clenched his fists and said to me in a cold voice.

I looked at him and didn't want to hide anymore. Since things had developed to this point, it was useless to hide the fact.

After I admitted that everything that happened before was done by me, Edward suddenly raised his head and let out an unusually sharp chuckle.

"Haha... Ashley, you didn't change at all."

"Edward." Betty got up from the ground and supported his shaking body.

"Let's go home, Betty." Edward looked at Betty who was supporting him and said gently to her.

He said that he wanted to go home with her.

I felt that my heart was very painful, as if it had been pinched by someone.

I clenched my fists and bit my lips. I saw Edward taking Betty's hand and leaving the cafe. And I looked at the backs of the two people alone.

After a long time, I sat on the floor and looked at my trembling hands. I smiled bitterly and said, "Ashley, shouldn't you have known the result a long time ago?"
