Chapter 136: A Misunderstanding

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Atticus’ POV:

I looked at Eloise. She looked up at me too, but her expression was not what I wanted.

If she didn’t care about anything, then I’d lost.

I had to admit that I had the will to want to live. This made me look much worse than her.

“So we can do it now. The earlier this is over, the better it is for both of us.” She seemed to feel relieved and quickly answered me.

“But, we had an unsuccessful marriage before.” I looked at her and tried to find other emotions in her expression, but she just looked at her phone calmly.

“This might affect our judgment. Don’t misunderstand. This is a kind reminder, not some threat.”

“I won’t bug you. I’ve never been like this from the beginning. I know you like Lisa, and that was an accident,” she said casually, not bothering to raise her head.

“If you think I was the one who caused that car accident, then I can’t do anything about it. I won’t prove myself for this matter.”

She was completely unconcerned about this. That was the feeling she gave me. However, I didn’t think what she said was the answer I wanted.

She must have misunderstood something.

“No, I never thought that you were the one who caused the accident. How could you be so clueless?”

She raised her head, and only now did she start to look at me. “I don’t like Lisa, so I wasn’t furious at you then,” I tried to explain.

“I don’t wish for anyone to do that. I can’t do that.”

Although Lisa did save me in the distant past, I would not fall in love with her because of that. I just wanted her to live well. Based on her situation back then, her life would be more stable in my pack.

After all, my pack was indeed better at medical treatment.

“But you did ask me to draw blood for Lisa and even wanted me to replace her organs. I’ll die if I do that.” Eloise looked at me, her eyes filled with sadness.

“That’s why I don’t want to believe you. Do you understand?”

I felt like I couldn’t say anything when I heard her say that.

When Eloise insisted on marrying me, I was really angry. But I never thought of hurting her because of this.

I always thought that she was willing to do that to Lisa.

But now, it didn’t seem to be the case. She even thought that I forced her to do this.

She had utterly wronged me.

But that was not my character, and I’d never do such a thing.

I wanted to defend myself, but I knew she wouldn’t believe me. I could only remain silent. Compared to all this, I might as well understand why these things happened.

“I don’t like Lisa.” My voice became weaker and weaker.

“Of course, I know that you see her as your sister. That’s why you hate me even more, isn’t it?” Eloise looked at me as if she already knew about this.

This made me completely unable to continue speaking.

So, I called and asked Jude to bring my lawyers here. Similarly, Eloise had also brought a few people with her. We all sat together and took some time to develop a rough idea.

The agreement between us was straightforward. Each party would still own their properties after marriage. We wouldn’t bear the responsibility of each other, and we wouldn’t get more.

The only thing we could get was the status of being married.

However, this was enough for her and me.

I needed her to help me solve the problem with my parents. And I couldn’t think of why she did it. I looked into her eyes, but there was nothing there. After learning this, her expression became much better. Then, she got up from the bed.

Logically speaking, she should have come over to shake my hand or do something else. But she just stood up and stretched.

“Thank you very much.” Eloise looked at me and smiled happily.

“Our cooperation begins here..”
