chapter 1224
“Sandy, if you told me the truth just now, I would believe that you had your own reasons,
but you chose to lie to me again. How am I supposed to know that you’re not lying to me
now as well?”
Tanner lifted his head and forced himself to calm down. “You even made Pearl your
scapegoat. Sandy, you’ve changed.”
Sandy’s chest began heaving up and down heavily. She clenched her fists tightly, and tears
were falling down from her cheeks like broken beads. “I’ve changed...”
She lifted her head to look at Tanner and asked, “Is it me, or is it you who have changed?”
Tanner did not reply.
Crying, Sandy shouted, “Ever since I got pregnant, you’ve been giving me the cold shoulder. You are
the one who made me feel like I might lose you. I don't want that to happen, so do you think I'd dare to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttell you the truth?”
She gradually broke down emotionally and shouted, “Tanner, I'm a woman, and a woman's intuition is
always right. Since when did you change your attitude when facing Pearl?”
Tanner was stunned, but he still kept silent.
Since when did his attitude change when facing Pearl? He had no idea either. He always thought he
loved Sandy because she was his first love and also his current girlfriend. The times when they had
been together used to be so wonderful, and despite the breakup, he still couldn't bring himself to forget
her.
Then Pearl, a woman with a bad reputation, became his fiancee and would become his wife in the
future.
Could she become Sandy's replacement? of course not. In his heart, Sandy was the purest and the
most perfect.
However, he did not know why, but he came to care about Pearl. For him, Sandy was like something he
loved very much that he had lost. He wanted to cherish her, but at the same time, he felt guilty. As for
the current Sandy, he resented her and hated himself for being influenced by her.
Looking at him, Sandy sobbed. “You don't care about her past, but you care about the fact that I had an
abortion and lied to you. In the end, it's your feelings for me that have changed. The truth that I had an
abortion is just a mere opening for you to voice out your dissatisfaction with me. I can sense it. After
finding out about that, I'm not that perfect Sandy in your mind anymore.
“Tanner, I didn't lie to you this time. I owe $ 450,000 to the loan shark. I was forced by that man who
was ruined by gambling to get a loan from the loan shark. I have never once laid my finger on that
$450,000.1 ran away from him, and I kept avoiding them after I returned to you. The only chance I have
to get rid of them is that I marry you, and I thought that as long as I became your wife, they wouldn't
dare to come after me anymore.
“I haven't asked for a single cent from you after I've returned. I didn't even think about
asking you to help me settle the debt. When they found me and forced me to pay back the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoney, I had to lie to them to save my life, and they gave me a three-day grace period. I'm
not afraid that they will come back for me. I'm just afraid that you won't be there and that I'll
die where no one knows.”
Sandy couldn’t stop crying. She covered her face and continued. “I left you back then
because my family is poor. I don’t deserve you. It's only when I met you again that I
realized I've been unable to forget about you. I want to be your wife, not because I want to
share your wealth. I just want to shake off my past. I admit that I'm jealous of Ms. Santiago.
I was afraid that you'd fall in love with her, so I lied to you.”
Tanner looked at her and said in a solemn voice, “You should have told me earlier.”
Sandy stopped crying.
Tanner stretched his hand to help her wipe the tears off her face, but his hand stopped
midway. He clenched his hand into a fist and withdrew his arm. “Sandy, if you had told me
everything when you returned, even if I'd be disappointed, I’d still accept you because I
love you.”
