He deeply regretted the harsh words he had said at the time.
“Ci.” He tried to apologize.
Cecilia had already looked away, not wanting to hear him speak.
Again and again.
It was utterly meaningless.
Wesley’s throat tightened. “I’m sorry.”
The words Cecilia hated hearing most were those three.
As if saying those three words could erase all the hurt.
“Someone like me doesn’t deserve Mr. Carlton’s apology.”
She threw his own words back at him.
Wesley was left speechless.
After all, he was the one who had misunderstood her.
“Ms. Zamora.” Johan coughed, his gaze clear. “The Johnson family will take full responsibility for this matter. Whatpensation do you want?”
Previously, because of Juniper, Johan had decided to give Cecilia two percent of the profits from the joint project between the Carlton and Johnson families.
Now that Juniper had made another mistake, Johan didn’t even know

whatpensation would be enough.
“I don’t want yourpensation. I have only one condition.”
She said. “I want you to refuse to marry Larissa.”
That was her only condition.
Whatever Larissa wanted, she was determined to break it.
Johan was stunned, his brows furrowed. “As the party at fault in this matter, for Juniper’s sake, I’ve already agreed to the marriage alliance. I came here just to offer you some privatepensation.”
He hadn’t wanted the marriage alliance in the first ce.
But because of Juniper’s mistake, in order to help his foolish sister, he had already made a deal with Wesley.
He would marry Larissa.
It took Cecilia a long time to process the meaning of that sentence.
She looked at Wesley in disbelief.
“Did I hear that right? Wesley, I almost fell from the tenth floor, and yet you’re helping Larissa?”
Her eyes were full of sarcasm.
And full of sorrow.
She was the one involved, the victim.
But the one who benefited was Larissa.
It was fucking ridiculous.

Wesley’s conscience seemed to be entirely with Larissa.
All his so–called affection and love were built on the condition that Larissa wouldn’t be affected.
She couldn’t suppress her emotions. Sheughed loudly, and as sheughed, tears slid down uncontrobly.
“?i.” Wesley, heart aching, tried to hug her. “I can exin.”
“Get out.” Cecilia wouldn’t let hime near.
She grabbed a pillow and hurled it at Wesley with all her strength.
Her gaze was almost hateful.
“Wesley, get out. I don’t want to see you right now.”
She felt sick.
In her struggle, the needle shifted, and her hand swelled up rapidly.
Cecilia simply yanked out the IV
Wesley was rmed. “Ci, calm down.”
Cecilia threw off the covers and got out of bed. “If you won’t leave, I will.”
Wesley pulled her back and held her in his arms. “Ci, listen to me.”
“What is there to exin?” Cecilia’s face was streaked with tears.
Her voice was hoarse.
“I should have jumped down back then. At least I wouldn’t have to see you disgust me like this.”

“Wesley, I’ve said it before. Liking her is your business, but can you stop always stepping on me to support her?”
“I’m a person, I have feelings, I get hurt too.”
She was filled with anger, with unbearable pain.
“Let go of me.”
“Let go!”
She couldn’t calm down at all.
She just wanted to let out all her grievances and leave this ce.
Wesley didn’t dare let go, but she was still pregnant, and getting so agitated was bad for her health.
Just as he was at a loss, Johan walked over and chopped the back of Cecilia’s neck with his hand.
Cecilia’s agitated emotions stopped abruptly, and her body went limp.
Wesley held her tightly. “Ci.”
Johan went to call the doctor.
After the doctor reinserted the IV, Wesley’s tense emotions finally
eased a little.
He looked at Cecilia’s pale face on the hospital bed, feeling unbearably distressed.
Johan crossed his arms, half–smiling. “I thought she knew about this.”
He truly hadn’t expected this was a decision Wesley had made
privately.

Wesley’s expression shifted, but finally settled into calm.
“Johan, my condition remains the same. It won’t change.” He said coldly. “If you want Juniper to be safe, then marry Larissa.”
Johan raised an eyebrow, looking thoughtful.
“Wesley, you still like Larissa, don’t you?” He was blunt.
Otherwise, he really couldn’t understand why Wesley was so good to Larissa, even at the cost of hurting the woman by his side.
“If you ask me, even though three years ago we went abroad together and embarrassed you, she and I broke up long ago. You can go after her again if you want.”
After speaking, he nced at Cecilia with pity.
“The way you treat her is just too cruel.”
Wesley rubbed his brow. “Cruel?“.
He didn’t like that word.
