Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 101

Rose's face was filled with terror as she muttered, "No, he definitely won't listen to you and send me away!"

I taunted her and said, "Yes, he will. And then you will lose everything you have now, things that are not meant for you. You will have to worry about money, work, food and each and every trivial thing in life. You'll have to suck up to your parents-in-law after you remarry and your next husband is gonna beat the s*it outta you simply because the beer is not cold enough when he gets home."

I was a major student of psychology, so I knew how to break down the last wall in Rose's heart and make her meltdown.

I just wanted to break her psychological defense and give her a fatal blow from the bottom of my heart, so that this rich young lady who had known the hardships of life could get a picture of what was coming to her.

Rose shook her head in fear. "No! Joel owes me. I'm already pregnant with his child, and he will never let me live a life like that! He promised me that after I give birth, he would bring the child home. He promised... That's why he got me out of jail! Em, I was just over my head that you kept helping September! I didn't mean any of it!"

Rose was pregnant?

Moreover, it was Joel who brought her out of prison.

I looked at September. Her face was extremely pale!

Rose suddenly became crazy. I realized there was no point in staying there, I took September's hand and left. I was also afraid that Rose would say something else to irritate her.

When we got out, September said, "Two days after you went to Glestin, my father forced me to let Rose out of prison. I didn't expect that it was Joel who was behind all of this." Her face was extremely pale.

"Maybe it's not him. After all, your father is such a person. Joel wouldn't have done this. He's not stupid."

September said firmly in a hoarse voice, "It's him! Rose didn't need to lie, and... how could my dad have the money to afford a lawyer? You know what? I was blocked right in front of the procuratorate by him! He actually went there to humiliate me, where I worked!"

No wonder September decided to compromise and let Rose go.

I comforted him feebly, "September, you have to believe Joel. He promised me that he wouldn't interfere with Rose's case!"

September swallowed, and she covered her lips with her slender fingers. Then, she pushed me away and ran to the side to vomit.

The vomit was tinged with blood.

I said anxiously, "I'll get the doctor right away!"

"It's alright. There's no way to cure this anyway. I just want Neil to be safe."

September's tone was calm and devoid of any sorrow. It was as if he had accepted this calmly and was quietly waiting for the result to arrive!

I was speechless. I couldn't help but cry out loud!

September really had suffered too much! She loved Joel, but he didn't know anything and even knocked up another woman!

I took her back to the ward to lie down and rest. I was silent on the other bed for a long time. Finally, I couldn't stand the silence anymore. I asked her softly, "Why were you at the cafe today?"

I just wanted to find a topic to end the silence.

"I was on a mission nearby and saw you entering that cafe from afar. Out of curiosity, I followed you in." September laughed and said, "Thank God I did."

I smiled and said, "If you didn't show up, I might not have fought her but I'd still say those words."

"Well, I'm sure you would!" September tilted her head to look at me and suddenly said, "Benjamin is a good man."

"Really? Maybe."

It took time to verify everything.

Love was not enough.

"He was very nervous about you just now. Joe had told me about the same thing he was telling you! But I have never listened to him in my heart. I've literally done the opposite of what he said every single time."

I paused and couldn't help but say, "Joe has been asking me about how you could forgive him."

September explained softly, "Emma, when he betrayed me, I gave him a chance, and even threw my dignity on the ground to let him step on it. But... so what he regrets now? His apology could not wipe out the harm he had done to me! Just like you can't pretend nothing has happened even you are with

Benjamin now."

She said, "Emma, I love him, but I also hate him."

She said, "Also, I don't have much time left, so I can't keep him for myself."

My eyes were sore, and I covered my eyes with my hand and said in a low voice, "September, I'll tell you the story of me and Benjamin. I'll tell you from my internship in Glestin six years ago."

That night, I told her the story between Benjamin and me. September was stunned and said, "You're very tolerant of Benjamin."

"Yes, he showed weakness and explained. I have to forgive him. And I'm pretty sure Joe could do much better than him."

"Emma, you know I don't have much time left. I'm not even supposed to keep this child. The doctor is not even sure whether I have the time needed for the child to come out of me. If not, the doctor is gonna have to perform a C-session on me."

"September..."

September didn't have the mood to care about Joel anymore. She was spending all her time on Neil.

The conversation that night could no longer continue, and I didn't know that it was the last time I could talk to September like that.

I clicked on my phone and saw the messages sent by Benjamin and Joel. Joel asked, "How is she?"

"She's in poor health," I replied.

I continued, "She just found that Rose is pregnant."

There was no reply from Joel for a long time. I clicked on the message from Benjamin. He said, "September is there. It's not convenient for me to come to you."

"Where are you?" I asked.

Benjamin replied immediately, "The Dunn family, putting Ellis to bed. Bedtime story."

I chose an eye-rolling emoji and sent it over. Then I replied, "Do you even know any stories appropriate for children?"
