Tangled By Fate-Chapter 433

Chapter 433: LET GO

“What? Are you going to apologize?” Catherine crossed her arms. “You cannot just cheat on me and then tell others that I cheated on you, Vincent. You have to pay for your crime.”

Vincent opened his mouth but before saying anything, he looked around.

The guests were genuinely surprised but more than being surprised, they were offended by Vincent and his mother’s lowly act.

‘Everything is gone. I didn’t think the ending would be like this. If I knew... if I just knew...’ Vincent couldn’t think anymore.

He regretted it. He regretted letting Catherine go. He regretted cheating on her.

He regretted touching Betty. He regretted making her pregnant.

Even if he wanted to blame him for his stupidity, it was too late.

.....

Even if he tried to turn around what he had done, it was too late.

Nothing could be reversed.

Whatever damage was done, was done.

There was no going back.

He looked at Catherine, the beautiful fiancée he had a few weeks ago.

She was his dream girl.

The moment he saw her for the first time, he knew he had to have her.

And he was the one who ruined everything by sleeping with Betty.

He couldn’t point his fingers at anyone anymore.

Feeling pathetic, he lowered his head.

“I’m sorry,” he mumbled.

Catherine raised an eyebrow. “Come again?”

“I said I’m sorry.” This time he apologized a bit loudly.

In the quiet place, it sounded rather loud. Even the wind stopped blowing to listen to his proper apology.

“And you’re sorry for what?” Catherine wanted a specific apology.

It was spring. The sun was right above their heads. The temperature was high. Nonetheless, the cold, refreshing wind blew in the hills.

Despite all that, Vincen’s face was covered in sweat.

He was never humiliated like that before.

He wiped his face and then said, “...For cheating on you... And for trying to ruin your reputation.”

Catherine heard it loud and clear.

Her curly blond hair danced in the spring breeze. She tugged her unruly strands behind her ears and looked at him forlornly.

Thinking of all the good times and bad times, she sharply inhaled and then slowly exhaled.

‘I can finally let it go...’ she thought.

Goodbye, first love.

Goodbye, daydreams.

All that was left were memories.

She didn’t know why, tears fell from her eyes like a waterfall. The more she wanted to wipe them, the more her tears fell.

She didn’t want to cry in front of others. She turned around and marched out of the wedding venue.

Vincent’s mother came back to her senses. When she realized what just happened, she exploded.

“That bitch! She dares to humiliate us! How could she lie in front of so many people? She made my good son apologize to her when he did nothing wrong...”

“Enough!” Vincent’s father roared and silenced his wife.

His head throbbed when he heard his wife shouting nonsense.

His wife was startled and then felt wronged after being scolded by her husband in front of so many people.

“Dear, how can you talk to me like that?” she asked.

He reprimanded his wife, “How else do you want me to talk? I had enough of your drama. I have already told you not to speak badly of her.

“She never wronged you but you wronged her. Isn’t it natural for her to come here and ask for justice?”

He looked at his good son and said, “Do you regret it now? When I told you not to go overboard, you and your mother didn’t listen to me.

“Now because of both of you, I lost my face and my family’s reputation. I have nothing else to say to you.”

Speaking his mind, he left.

Even if he wanted to kick his son out of the house, he simply couldn’t.

After all, Vincent was his only son and his son’s wife was carrying his heir.

He could only feel sorry for what happened and try to forget about it.

He wasn’t the only one who left.

All the guests and relatives followed his suit. They gave Vincent, Betty and Vincent’s mother a disappointed look before leaving.

Betty trembled in anger. She clenched her fists and glared at the way the guests left.

‘How dare you ruin my wedding? Catherine, I will never let you go. If it wasn’t for you, I would have had a happy wedding. It’s always you and your friend, Veronica who destroy everything I care for..’

After cursing them with all her might, she calmed down. She looked at Vincent.

Her husband’s face was ashen. His hands were trembling.

“Vincent, are you alright? You don’t look well,” she said in a worried tone.

Vincent sat on a chair. He looked at the ground. He didn’t look like he had any strength left in his body.

She softly stated, “Vincent, what is wrong with you? I’m asking you a question. Please answer me. You’re not the only one who is feeling upset.

“I am also depressed about what happened. But we have to carry out our wedding. It’s not like we can stop or anything.”

Vincent heard what Betty said and looked at her with a blank expression.

“You want to carry out our wedding?” he asked.

He pointed his finger at the empty chairs.

He said, “What wedding do you want to carry out? The guests are already gone. Since you wanted a wedding so much, have a wedding on your own.”

Betty’s face turned red in humiliation. she wanted to punch Vincent’s face in fury but she held back.

She shed tears and lowered her head as if she was wronged.

“How can you speak to me like that? It’s not like I’m the one who jumped on you and made myself pregnant. Whatever happened between us was mutual. I have your child in my stomach.

“Now you cannot push the blame on me just like you did it to Catherine. Unlike her, I’m carrying your child. Therefore, you can wrong her but not me.”

Listening to her cries, Vincent thought that he was a scum for making two girls cry on the same day.

He took a deep breath and wiped his sweats. He stood up and stroked her back.

He gently coaxed her, “I’m sorry, I was wrong. Yes, it’s all my fault. It’s my fault for being seduced by you. I’m the one who put my seeds inside you. I’m the one who made you pregnant.

“I shouldn’t have pushed the blame on you. Let’s go inside. You need to drink water. It’s still hot outside.”

Betty wiped her tears and then looked at him with her red eyes. “You won’t leave me, are you?” she asked in concern.

“You are carrying my child. There is no way I will leave you,” he assured her. “Just as I promised, we will spend the rest of our lives together. And no one will come between us.”

Betty was delighted when she heard that. She sweetly smiled at him and said, “Let’s spend our life together. Forever.”

From a distance, Vincent’s mother looked at the couple. Her tongue was tied.

She had yet to process what just happened on the happiest day of her son’s life.

———-

Catherine teleported herself and went to the Magic Tower. She shoved herself on her bed and burst into tears.

She only became quiet after she cried her heart out.

.....

Outside her room, Veronica and Zinnia were waiting for her to calm down. They went to the wedding with Catherine and observed the situation.

They were there in case Catherine needed any help. However, Catherine was so strong that she didn’t need their help.

“I hope she can overcome her grief,” Veronica prayed for her best friend.

“She will eventually,” Zinnia assured her. Then, she suggested, “Let’s give her some time to overcome her feelings.”

“You leave first. I’ll go back later,” Veronica told her.

She didn’t tell Zinnia that Catherine tried to attempt suicide before. She was worried that her friend would do the same thing again.

That’s why she wanted to stand back and wait for Catherine to cool her head.

She wasn’t ready to lose her friend just because of some scoundrels.

———-

“How are you holding up?” Veronica asked while handing over a bowl of soup to Catherine.

“I’m fine,” Catherine said.

Although she said she was fine, Veronica found it hard to believe.

Catherine’s voice was hoarse. Her eyes were red and puffy. She cried so much that she became weak.

She quietly drank her soup without looking at her best friend.

Veronica waited for a while and then asked, “What will you do now? Do you have any plans?”

“What plan?” Catherine let out a deep sigh. “I will just go back to my usual routine after staying at Ironin’s house for a couple of days. Romance doesn’t suit me. I think I’m better without a husband in my life.”

Veronica felt sorry for her friend.

“Why do you want to live a lonely life? You are the one who said that I had to live my life to the fullest. Shouldn’t you do the same? There is still Sebastian...” f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

“No.” Catherine shook her head. “He gave me a chance and I didn’t take it. That’s all there is to it. It’s a good thing that he didn’t pursue me anymore. I took him for granted. I don’t deserve him. He’s too good for me.”

Veronica touched her hand. “Don’t say it like that.”

Catherine insisted, “No, I’m right. Sebastian deserves someone way better than me. Not a broken doll like me.”

Veronica wanted to say something but someone knocked on the door, interrupting their conversation.

“Mistress, you there? It’s urgent.”
