Chapter 266 Substitute Love (Part Two)

If you didn't have his children, you would be nothing to him!"

Frank's words flashed through Mary's mind over and over again as she walked along the road aimlessly.

She couldn't believe it! Everything had been perfect ever since she came back. William had finally said he loved her and the kids were so ecstatic. All of it was like a fantasy! Was everything a disguise? Did William fool her?

Those thoughts began to fill her head, gradually eating her up. For some time, she was lost in a compound of emotions.

What dragged her back to her senses was the sudden ringing of her phone.

"Hello?"

"Mary, where are you? Why didn't you come to work? Are you sick?" Barry's anxious voice came from the phone. Even though Mary could not see him right now, she was certain that his face was painted with concern.

"What? What time is it right now?"

"It's already half-past nine." Barry frowned before continuing, "Your voice sounds different. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I’m fine," said Mary, biting her lips. Then, after taking a deep breath, she added, "I'm going to the company now!"

"Where are you? Let me pick you up."

still kept writing to Sansa, the person who had been dead for so many years. It turned out that Frank was really telling the truth.

"I'm married. She is very silly, just like you. When I see her lively appearance, I can't help but think of you. If you didn’t leave me, I would marry you only. I miss you. William."

"I went to see you today. I wanted to burn the letter for you, but I couldn't get myself to do it. This is the only memory between you and me. "

Mary couldn't see anything else, but those repeated words "I miss you" and "I love you" etched on the letters.

Without noticing it, her eyes began to well up with tears. Suddenly, her visions became blurry as her heart ached in so much pain and betrayal. ‘A substitute? Fake love?

So, I am really nothing to him, huh?' she thought, feeling utterly defeated.

Then, the letter in her hand suddenly slipped through her fingers. And as the door clicked open, her tears rolled aggressively down her cheeks.

"Mary? What are you doing here?"

The familiar voice of the man she loved resounded from the door, but Mary was in too deep sorrow to react at that moment.
