He was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond. Their eyes met, filled with complexity. But for some reason, Shirley Wilson could sense a tinge of sadness and melancholy in Skyler Robins’ eyes, as if he had suffered a great blow.
Her heart suddenly tightened, as if it was being gripped tightly, causing a sharp pain. Initially, Ben knew that Sofia Green would be furious and slap him after he got engaged to her.
Because based on the timing of Sofia Green’s pregnancy, she was still with Skyler Robins at that time, but Skyler Robins actually slept with Sofia Green.
Faced with his despicable behavior, Shirley Wilson felt a mix of anger and sadness. But in this moment, Skyler Robins appeared even more melancholic. Seeing his self-deprecating smile, Shirley Wilson felt devastated.
“I just want to ask you…” Skyler Robins said, tilting his head and looking away, raising his hand to touch his nose, as if he couldn’t bring himself to meet Shirley Wilson’s gaze, “Have you ever loved me?”
Unbeknownst to himself, when he asked this question, his voice choked up. Shirley Wilson’s fingers holding her handbag trembled slightly, her clear eyes gazing at Skyler Robins’ handsome face with a hint of longing and arrogance, a face she had yearned for day and night.
How many nights, in her dreams, she held onto the man in front of her tightly, telling him…
Ky, do you know how much I miss you?
Ky, do you know we have a child together?
We have three precious babies, a gift from heaven. But everything fades away when she wakes up from her dream, and even her tumultuous heart is restrained and calmed.
“The question you asked is really childish and laughable.”
Shirley Wilson looked away, unable to meet his gaze. She was afraid that if she looked at him for a moment longer, she would not be able to hold back her tears.
Her heart was in turmoil, with countless emotions tormenting Shirley Wilson, and she didn’t know how to face Skyler Robins.
On one hand, she loved him deeply and had his child; on the other hand, she faced Sofia Green’s threat to her loved ones; on one hand, Sofia Green was pregnant with his child and they were about to get married; on one hand, her family was ordinary and her appearance was ruined, the Robins Family would not accept her.
Skyler Robins asked her if she had ever loved him. Little did he know, at this moment, Shirley Wilson also wanted to ask Skyler Robins a question, did you ever love me?
“Childish… laughable?”
Skyler Robins turned around, his lips forming a straight line, and Matt’s cold gaze stared at him without blinking, as if trying to see through her. In her heart, emotions seemed childish and laughable.
“Heh.”
Skyler Robins laughed.
When she was abandoned by Sofia Green years ago, he underwent a drastic change in personality and became the playboy in everyone’s eyes.
But it was all a facade, a facade of indifference. Finally, he met Shirley Wilson, who gradually helped him emerge from the shadows. However, he never expected that in the end, he would be manipulated by a woman.
“Yes, childish.”
Shirley Wilson took a barely noticeable deep breath and pretended to be indifferent. “I told you from the beginning that I didn’t like you. It was you who insisted on taking me to the hidden clan. If it weren’t for you, would I have disfigured myself? Skyler Robins, why do you think I would love you?”
“If you don’t love me, then why have you been clinging to me every day since we returned from the hidden clan, constantly saying that you love me?” Skyler Robins felt unwilling and, more importantly, confused.
“Why else? Of course, it’s for the money of the Robins Family,” Shirley Wilson pretended to be nonchalant, “Ben wanted to get some money from you and also fix my disfigured face as compensation. But Wade advised me to give up because he said that the 7.5 million we received as compensation was already enough. After careful consideration…”
As she spoke, she reached out and touched the scar on her cheek, then adjusted her scarf to cover the scars on her face. “Prone to scarring, Ben can’t heal the scars on my face. In that case, why should I waste any more time on you?”
