Chapter 265 Substitute Love (Part One)

It was already dawn when Mary returned to the villa. The sky was beginning to show its color while the sun was somewhere waiting for its moment to shine.

"Ding!"

Just as Mary was about to enter her room, her phone suddenly rang.

"Something came up on the construction site, so I had to leave earlier. Congratulations! Let's talk about it when I get home."

She frowned after taking out her phone and reading the message.

It was rare for William to send her messages, so Mary couldn't figure out what facial expression he bore when typing that text. But judging from his words, he probably wasn't happy at all.

"Be careful." After hesitating for a long time, Mary finally managed to type a reply and send it to him.

The villa was empty since the kids were sent to Timothy's place. And because she was all alone, Mary felt peaceful and relaxed after such a tiring day. Stretching her arms, she proceeded to the bathroom to take a shower. After being refreshed with the hot water and soap, she put on her peignoir and settled her phone on the bedside table, ready to throw herself on the bed.

However, seconds after her body hit the soft mattress, Mary's heart trembled at the sudde

the trace of ghost in her eyes. Although her face bore no expression, she felt a complex set of emotions boiling within her. All her doubts turned into sorrowful pains as if her heart was slowly being torn into pieces.

Sansa Liang?

Frank had a sister called Sansa?

"William has never forgotten my sister even though she has been dead for so many years. I called him to tell him that the flowers planted in front of my sister's tomb withered!

That night was such a momentous occasion for you, yet William could leave regardless of anything. And knowing what he did, who do you think is more valuable in his heart now? Mary, you are a smart woman. I think you know the answer to that.

You are definitely not the one he loves. I'm sure by now you're probably thinking that I'm lying. If you don't believe me, you can go back and find an ebony box buried somewhere in your house. What’s inside it is already enough to make you believe me.

And remember Andy Duan and Beth An? William wanted to get rid of them a long time ago. What happened between him and those women was different from what you've imagined. In the four years since you left, William had been with them all the time.
