Chapter 20
Colette stared at the man before her, disheveled and almost pitiful, a sudden realization dawning on her
She had never expected Magnus to go this fact
He had always been proud and unyielding
Back when they were younger, both families had chosen one of the Ferrero brothers, Magnus or Spencer, to marry Colette.
At that time, when he was just ten years old, he had arrogantly declared, “Colette is spoiled! She gets angry over nothing, always needing people to pamper her, I can’t be bothered with her. I certainly don’t want to marry her!“}
It was that very comment that had driven Colette, after their marriage, to compromise, to endure, to make sacrifices whenever possible.
If she had rejected Magnus the way she had these past few days, he would have lost his patience long ago, stormed off, and never looked back.
Yet now, despite her coldness, he had become nothing short of humble and submissive
While Colette stood there, lost in thought, Spencer, standing silently to the side, finally lowered his gaze in defeat and handed over a few documents.
“Colette, I know I’ve wronged you, and I understand why you’re angry with me.”
“I’ve already divorced Camille. There’s nothing standing in our way anymore. I’m willing to transfer most of my shares to you. Let’s remarry and put everything back on track, okay?”
Colette took the papers from him, her hands trembling in disbelief.”
As the eldest son of the Ferrero family, Spencer had always placed the company above everything else. Even when he’d doted on Camille, he’d kept the company’s affairs at arm’s length from her. But now, he was offering to give up his shares?!
Spencer’s smile was bitter, tinged with regret.
this… this is
“I know the past is set in stone, and no matter how often I apologize, you won’t believe me.” His voice dropped lower. “But thi my deepest sincerity”
“Colette.. you know me. I’m being genuine,”
lette remained silent, her heart heavy. Had he spoken these words before all that had happened, she might have been moved and given everything for him.
en if Colette had still been on the verge of cutting ties with the Ferrero family, their words might have reached her, swaying her, given Their years of connection. But now, everything changed &
Her world no longer spun around the Ferrero or the Moore families.}
What she cared about now wasn’t the future or prospects of the Moore family.
What they said no longer moved her
Colette looked at the two men before her, her expression calm.)
“I never thought I’d hear an apology from people as selfish as you.”
“But the one you owe an apology to isn’t me; it’s my child.“”
“That’s a living, breathing soul. Once a life is gone, there’s no bringing it back.”
“Everything is already set. Don’t come looking for me again”
With that, she turned to leave, her back to them, not sparing them another glance.
But in an instant, Magnus and Spencer gripped one of her arms.”
The pain mirrored in their eyes.
Desperation echoed in Magnus’s voice.”
“Colette, I regret what happened with the child. Every day since has been unbearable!”
“But, if you come back, we’ll have another child! I promise!!
Spencer was more persistent than ever, his voice firm but desperate.
“Colette, we know you’re angry. You can hit us, scold us, do whatever you need to. But you can’t waste your time much more. A better future awaits you.”
here. You deserve so
Colette frowned, tugging her arm in an attempt to break free, But the difference in their strength only brought her closer to them. Magnus and Spencer exchanged a look, and then they apologized with shared sincerity. “Colette, we promised your parents we’d bring you back this time.”
“We’re doing this for your good. Please, forgive us.”
As Spencer spoke, he gently placed a powder packet near Colette’s nose.
o matter how hard she fought to keep her eyes
Before she could react, her world began to spin uncontrollably. Her vision blurred, and no open, it felt like an impossible battle.
When it seemed like everything was slipping away, a
another pair of hands shoved them aside. “What are you trying to do?“%
