“Then it’s all the more reason for you to not come over! Back then it was I who did not
manage to protect you well and now your mother is frequently muddled. I don’t want to drag you down.” After Hank finished speaking, he hugged Beth and turned around to return to the house.
Esme watched them enter the house, so upset that she felt like crying.
Peter quietly came to her side and looked at her with a mocking gaze. “I never knew that you were such a filial daughter.”
“It’s all your fault!” Esme glared at him. “You promised me that you would protect my father and mother well. Why did my mom become like this?!” NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
“Perhaps the Lawsons have the genes of mental illness,” Peter said sarcastically. “Isn’t your cousin crazy as well?”
Esme was so angry that she pounced on Peter, hammering his chest, her eyes bloodshot.
“You promised me. You said you would protect them well. You went against your word!” “Enough!” Peter pushed her down with his right hand, and raised his leg to step on one of her ankles.
Squatting down, his gaze was malicious. “You also promised me that after I save you, you would be loyal to me forever, and love me. However, what did you do?”
Esme was speechless. Seeing his eyes filled with a murderous gaze, she felt her scalp becoming numb.
“You use me, scheme against me. Haha.” Peter laughed till his shoulders shook. “Why did I fall in love with a woman like you? And why do I keep giving you chances?”
“I… I didn’t do it on purpose. Fia forced me to. I had no choice so I wanted to rely on more people,” Esme explained and started crying.
Peter looked at her. Every time he caught her wanting to betray him in the past, he was still able to bear it.
But this time, she gave his past information to other people and he could not forgive her for that!
“Didn’t you want to know if Conrad still has any love for you?” He said coldly, “I’ll give you the chance.”
After he finished speaking, he got up.
“Mr. Hall, Mr. Hall, listen to me!” Esme hugged him tight. There was definitely a scheme if he was acting so calm. She could not let him leave.
However, this time, Peter’s heart was cold and he could no longer be coaxed.
He kicked her away, the rim of his eyes red as he glared at her. “Don’t worry. I won’t expose your identity. I will just watch you like an uninvolved party! In the future, whatever happens to you will solely depend on you yourself! Your life and death will have nothing to do with me either!”
Returning to the car, Peter turned on the voice recorder.
Just Esme blaming him for not taking good care of her parents was enough to prove that she
was Esme.
However, he ultimately did not send it out like his plan last night.
Just let things be. In the future, she will only have herself to rely on.
Esme returned to the Thomas residence, downcast. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas were talking about her and Peter.
“Britney, you’re back. What exactly happened between you and Peter? He just called and told your dad that the two of you have broken up. Without giving us a chance to speak, he blocked us!” Mrs. Thomas got angrier as she spoke. “Say, you’ve chased him for so many years. How could he break it off so easily?”

“I was the one who brought it up.” Esme forced herself to smile. “In the past, I didn’t to get him and thought that I really loved him. Lately, I’ve suddenly understood my own intentions and what I have for him is not love, just mere infatuation.”
Mrs. Thomas was a little stunned. As a woman, she felt that such an explanation was a little forced and ridiculous.
As a father, Mr. Thomas was singing high praises.
“It’s great that you are able to think things through clearly! I have said it before. My daughter is outstanding and beautiful, and can match up to men of great stature! Even your sister who is so disobedient managed to find a director. How could you just be with a person who does research?!”
Mrs. Thomas said in disagreement, “Stop instilling this kind of thinking in Britney. When choosing a partner, the other party’s condition is not the most important. Whoever treats her best is the most important.”
“You only know how to act pure. Don’t tell me you are willing to allow your daughter to find a beggar or a mere employee?” Mr. Thomas retorted angrily.
Mrs. Thomas choked till she felt her chest hurt. “I’m not asking her to look for a beggar. I meant for someone whose financial condition is better than ours, and treats her well!”
“Hmph! Pretentious!” Mr. Thomas dragged Esme to sit down. “Your father, I, am a man with a network. Tonight, you can follow me to a banquet, with all kinds of good men waiting for you to take your pick!”
On the second floor stairway, Britney, who was dressed in black and wearing a cap and mask, stood there, clenching her fist tightly.
‘Peter, this is the woman that you fell in love with, who ignores the law and humanity! ‘Who treats you like air, as if you’re disposable at any moment!’
