Deadly Doting Marriage Novel - Chapter 523

Carlos was silent.

He had never thought about this question before.

So what if Jessica was back? He already had a wife and a child! He had never thought of making a choice.

But now…

His dizzy mind finally turned around.

He asked Erwin and John, “Do you mean that Cassie suddenly left and wants to divorce me because of Jessica’s return?”

John and Erwin were once again speechless.

Erwin asked, “Wasn’t the letter she wrote to you clear enough?”

Carlos was speechless

It was clear enough!

“Jessica and I have nothing to do with each other!”

Carlos looked at his two good friends and said, “Maybe Cassie doesn’t know, but you two should know!”

“I was indeed shocked when Jessica suddenly came back alive! But she and I already have our own lives together. We have never thought of reconnecting.”

John and Erwin looked at each other.

They said in unison, “We didn’t know.”

Erwin continued, “Maybe you didn’t plan to reconnect with someone else, but are you sure that

Jessica thought so, too?”

Carlos nodded. “I’m sure.”

He told his two good friends, “Jessica is sick! If we can’t find a good solution, she might only have two months to live.”

Because of Jessica’s illness, Carlos frowned again.

He continued with a heavy heart, “Jessica definitely has no intention of continuing her relationship with me!”

“She knows that she won’t be able to live for long. The reason she came back to look for me was to arrange for her to die. She wanted me to adopt her child…”

If it was true that Jessica was sick and that she wouldn’t be able to live for long, perhaps she really had no intention of continuing her relationship with Carlos.

However, was it true that Jessica was sick?

John and Erwin were not aware of the situation, so they had no way to comment on it.

They could only help Carlos analyze the situation based on the current facts. They told Carlos, “Perhaps neither of you have thought of continuing your relationship, but does Cassie know about it?”

Erwin asked Carlos, “Regarding Jessica’s return alive and everything about her, have you told Cassie about it?”

He did not!

However, there was a reason for that!

Carlos said, “Jessica came back too suddenly. When she appeared, she said that she was seriously ill and that she was going to die soon.”

“So…”

“In the past two days, I’ve been neglecting Cassie and rarely went home because I helped to arrange for Jessica to be hospitalized and helped her find a doctor.”

“I’m very busy. I rarely see her, and I don’t have the time to mention Jessica to her…”

The more he spoke, the less confident he became.

He finally realized that it was his own problem.

But..

Carlos raised his neck and told his two good friends, “But I don’t have any other thoughts about Jessica! I’m also very sure that Jessica doesn’t have any other thoughts about me either!”

Time flew by. Half a month passed quickly after Cassie left.

During this half a month, Carlos was initially angry and furious. He was also very sure that he would definitely capture the escaped Cassie and bring her back to Hillford.

He would teach her a lesson then.

Later, he realized that he couldn’t find her.

He had checked everything.

Carlos had also thought that it must be Kennard’s doing.

He had people monitor Kennard, and he had already visited Kennard several times, but it was all useless! It seemed that Cassie had disappeared just like that!

She had disappeared from Hillford and was ready to disappear from his life completely!

How could that be possible?

Carlos continued to expand his power to look for her.

In order to find Cassie and capture Cassie, he had made himself very tired.

In addition, he had been aggressive at first, thinking he would teach her a good lesson. All of that was gone! He compromised once again.

When he was drunk with John and Erwin that night, Carlos muttered, “That damn woman, I can forgive her!”

“She lied so much that Leonard could only live as a boy. She even kept this from me for six years. She even wanted to divorce me.”

“I’ll let it go!’

“As long as she comes back, I’ll find her…”

That night, Carlos was very drunk.

Coincidentally, both Erwin and John were in trouble.

John had met with a problem at the company, so he had to go over immediately to deal with it.

Erwin had received a call from his wife and daughter. He immediately stopped drinking with Carlos and rushed home.

John was the first to leave.

Erwin was about to leave.

He looked at Carlos and asked, “Are you drunk? Should I send you home first?”

Carlos refused to leave.

The drunk Carlos did not seem to care about friendship at all. He had actually abandoned Erwin just because of a phone call from his wife. “Get lost. Go home and accompany your wife!”

Carlos was full of resentment.

He even waved his hand. “Hurry up and leave. Don’t be an eyesore here!”

He had lost his wife and had yet to find her. He had to show off his love in front of a pitiful man. It was better for him to get rid of such a friend.

Otherwise, he would cry! Erwin nodded. “Alright then.”

Erwin really left just like that.

However, before he left, Erwin instructed the manager of the bar, “Keep an eye on Carlos. He’s drunk. Get someone to send him home later or let him stay here for the night.”

“Remember, don’t let anything happen to him!”

The manager of the bar promised, “Don’t worry, Mr. Smith. I’ll take good care of him later. I won’t let anything happen to him!”

It was a good promise.

However, Carlos was not under the control of a bar manager.

Not long after Erwin left, Carlos felt bored. He stood up unsteadily and was about to leave as well.

The bar manager immediately came over.

He held onto the drunk Carlos and asked, “Mr. Reeves, are you going home? I’ll arrange for someone to send you back. How about that?”

“No need, ” Carlos rejected.

He struggled free from his grip.

“I can go back by myself!” Carlos told the bar manager as he walked forward.

“But Mr. Smith told me to be careful when he left. He told me to make sure you go home safely. Do you want to stay in the bar?”
