Wesley lowered his head and gently took a sip of tea, hiding the dark glint in his eyes.
When he looked up again, his eyes were soft and distressed. "Cathy, let me ask you. Did you voluntarily have sex with him?”
"Of course not." Catherine immediately denied it.
"Then that’s that." Wesley gently held her hand." Cathy, I read something before. If your wife gets kidnapped by gangsters, as a man, do you want your wife to resist with her life or obey to save her life? If it were me, I would choose the latter. Nothing is more important to me than my wife's safety and life."
"Wesley..." Catherine’s heart trembled, and her eyes could not help but become red.
"I'm not the type to get hung up about a woman’s first time. I already knew it when I chose to marry you." Wesley continued, "The day of the wedding, you were taken away by Shaun. Why would I blame you? I can only blame myself for being a powerless husband. I didn’t even dare to call the police for the sake of my family's safety. In fact, I’ve been uneasy these days because I'm afraid that you’ll despise my incompetence after coming back."
"No." Catherine shook her head. "I can understand you. If it were me, I would probably do the same. It's Shaun who's too despicable."
"Yes, he’s despicable and forced you. He thought that even if I saved you, I'd definitely despise you, but he underestimated me. My love for you trumps over everything else. I could accept your children back then, and this time, just getting you back is enough for
- H
me.
Pain welled up in Wesley’s eyes. "Cathy, why is it so hard for us to be together? After so many twists and turns, I waited and waited before finally getting you to agree to marry me. But you got involved in another incident. If you really feel guilty, then make it up to m e in the future.”
Catherine's heart was moved the more she listened.
On the way back earlier, she had decided to separate from Wesley, but after hearing his words, she was shaken again.
