Phoebe still rejected him, “I know you mean well but no need. After all, you are married. I think it’s not a good idea for us to get too close. I can’t repeat the mistake that I have made before.” After Phoebe finished saying that, she limped to the roadside by herself.
Armand was standing in the same position and staring at her back.
“If you want to go, just go ahead. Why are you hesitating here?” A sneering voice sounded from his back. Armand turned around and saw Loredana who was standing right behind him.
He was stunned for a while. Did she just see it?
He explained to her instinctively, “It was a coincidence that we met here, she was being harassed by a pervert. I must help her, right?”
Loredana just continued to sneer, “Heroic rescue, it’s the thing that every man will do. You are right, it’s all my fault. I must be crazy to make a match between you and Theresa. For now, Theresa is right about her decision. You are just a person who can’t get things clear.”
Armand walked towards her, “It’s really a misunderstanding…”
“What misunderstanding?” Loredana looked at him mockingly, “You are so sympathetic and eager to send the other woman back home, is this a misunderstanding?” “Her leg is injured…”
“Does she have no family, no friends? Only you can send her back?” Loredana interrupted him sternly.
At that moment, she finally understood why Theresa would give up the idea of getting a child.
Did he really understand his heart or not?
Loredana stayed quiet and tried her best to calm down.
She took a deep breath, “Armand, if you still love your ex-girlfriend, promise me that you won’t go back to Theresa.”
Armand was a little flustered inexplicably. Just as he wanted to pull Loredana, he got his hand back after his gaze intersected with Cormac’s sharp gaze, “I do love Theresa.”
Loredana wanted to smile but it was such a tough task for her to do when facing Armand who was out of the loop.
“You love Theresa?”
“Yes, I love her,” Armand answered quickly.
“Have you ever thought about it seriously? Why would she leave you in the past if she loves you? Furthermore, she left you for so long after it. Aren’t you curious about where did she go during that time? What kind of people did she meet? Did she fall in love with others during the time?” Loredana asked sharply.
He himself was a lawyer and lawyers were always with a logical mind compared to normal people.
However, Armand’s IQ didn’t even reach the level of a normal person at the time!
Armand’s behavior had really disappointed her!
It was real that Armand had never thought carefully about it. However, Phoebe had told him the reason why she left him.
“She said that she was infertile so she left me as she didn’t want to implicate me.”
Loredana felt that it was such a ridiculous explanation. If she does love Armand, would she just leave him without saying a word, was it, love?
If the answer was a ‘yes’, then her love was too selfish.
In her opinion, it was not an act of helping him. If she really loved him, she would not bear to let go. Otherwise, she must be leaving with her heart broken even if she really had to leave him. Even if it happened like what Armand said, the reason that she left him was due to her infertility and she did not want to implicate him.
Besides, she had left for so long and why did she come back now?
She was not afraid to implicate him for now?
She felt that it was such an unconvincing excuse, it was too illogical and far-fetched!
“At this moment, I surely agree with all Theresa’s decisions, you really disappoint me too much!”
After saying that, Loredana turned around and got into the car.
She refused to say anything else to Armand.
The level of her resentment towards Armand’s procrastination was just the same as the level of her worries towards Theresa’s situation at the moment. Cormac put his hands into his pockets. He walked over and reminded Armand seriously, “She usually doesn’t treat people like this, think about it by yourself.”
He patted on Armand’s shoulder heavily. He had sensed a problem when Loredana took the initiative to ask Armand out for a talk suddenly.
It must be something that happened to Theresa so that Loredana would choose to take the initiative to talk to Armand. Her purpose in doing so was to try to get Armand and Theresa back together again. However, she saw the scene of him and his ex-girlfriend just now. Thus, she was very disappointed and that was why she got angry and started rebuking him mercilessly.
Armand was feeling bitter in his heart, “Finally, Theresa is willing to meet me now but she is treating me with a lukewarm attitude and gave me her cold shoulder.”
The temperature of the most fervent heart would also be consumed in that way.
Outsiders could not intervene in the matter of other’s relationship. If it was not for Armand’s sake, he would not remind him of anything.
Armand had to count on himself to understand it.
Cormac got into the car. He did not start the car but went to play with her long hair, “Let’s go eat something.”
Loredana felt that her stomach was bloated with air as she was too angry with Armand.
In her opinion, this was just a very simple question. If he loved Theresa, he should make a clean break with his ex-girlfriend so that he could give Theresa a sense of security.
If he still loved his ex-girlfriend, he should not be with Theresa anymore.
However, what was he doing?
He kept saying that he loved Theresa while keeping in touch with his ex-girlfriend.
She turned her head and looked at Cormac out of the blue, “Theresa is pregnant.”
Cormac actually guessed it, otherwise, she would not freak out just now.
He smiled dotingly, “So what are you going to do? Do you want me to ask someone to beat Armand up?”
Loredana shook her head. It was obviously not a rational action. They might just vent their anger in a short while by beating him up but it was useless.
“I want to investigate his ex-girlfriend. Where had she been all these years and why did she come back suddenly?” If it was real that she left Armand due to her infertility, then it meant that his ex-girlfriend really loved Armand. Then, she will let Theresa leave the country first.
After that, it was Armand’s own business for the matter that whether he was going to get back together with his ex-girlfriend.
What she could do was to put her best foot forward to avoid Theresa from being hurt more.
Cormac was sighing. He felt that she was meddling too much. But at the same time, he also felt that she was very loyal to her friend, Theresa.
Loredana seemed to discover what he was thinking. She curled her lips bitterly, “Theresa has been with me and the reason that she came back here is also because of me. If she did not come back, she would not meet Armand and all these things would never happen.”
She felt that she had to be responsible for it.
The corners of Cormac’s eyes twitched. What should he do if she didn’t come back?
