NovelEnglishChapter 263 Dorothy's face stiffened. “Marriages can end in divorce. You two had plans for that, didn't you?" Bryant frowned. "Can't you see?" Dorothy asked in confusion, "See what?" "I don't want a divorce His demeanor seemed casual yet filled with earnestness, "And I'm actively wooing my wife back." I stared at him, completely baffled, unable to tell if he was being sincere or just making up an excuse to push Dorothy away.
Dorothy clenched her teeth in secrecy, a flash of resentment crossing her face, but soon, she laughed confidently. "Bryant, maybe you don't knowwell enough since we haven't known each other for long. My parents spoiledrotten. I've always got whatever i wanted. The more you show your love, the more I want to becMrs. Ferguson to see how blissful it can be!" She and Margaret were worlds apart. Margaret still had to put on a facade in public, but Dorothy scored even that pretense, let alone acting. After all, she had the Myers family to back her up. She didn't need to resort to any fakery.

Teresa sensed Bryant's distinctly different attitude and hesitated, "Bry..." "Teresa, have Kevin arrange for a driver to take you home," Bryant said, diverting his gaze and speaking flatly. Teresa's mouth hung open slightly, and after a moment, she reluctantly left, shootinga resentful glance on her way out.
I was perplexed. "You seem different toward Teresa. Why?" "I found out the truth." Bryant smiled, a mix of disappointment and guilt in his eyes, "I couldn't believe what you toldat first, but it involved my mother, so I checked." I looked at him in surprise. "Then why haven't you..." "Tumed her in?" He suppressed his emotions, eyes slightly narrowed, "Given the current situation of the Ferguson Group, it's not the right tto stir trouble. But there are a thousand ways to solve this issue." I nodded, not saying more. How to deal with Teresa was a matter for the Ferguson family, not me.
I calmed my thoughts and was about to revisit the document he mentioned had issues when he retook my hand.
He looked up at me, his gaze deep. “Honey, I have nothing left but you." There he was, playing the sympathy card.

Bryant squeezed my hand. "You can have more, and you will have a lot more."
"But I've gotten used to having nothing." I took a deep breath, looking at him calmly. "I'm not like Dorothy. She wants what she can't have because she's the darling daughter of the Myers family and always has her wishes fulfilled. But I'm not her. I hardly got what I wanted, so I learned to let go from a young age.” 521
All the trials, the bravery, and the consequences were mine alone to bear, But I forgot, in sways, waysm Bryant and Dorothy were alike. He stared atintently, his lips parting slightly to coax, "It's okay. I'll take the steps toward you. You stay put, waiting for me, and don't Back out. Jane, I'm serious. I will make it up to you. I don't want to lose you." X
