Chapter 844: Chapter 844 Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 14)_1

“I do hate Madeleine, I treated her so badly, I even… I…”

Howard Coleman said, suddenly stopping mid-sentence.

What he actually wanted to say was that, even though he didn’t like her, he still used her body to insult her, and then made her take emergency contraception afterward.

When he was doing these things back then, he didn’t really have any other thoughts. He just blindly wanted Madeleine to completely give up hope on him, to despair, so that she would completely separate from him.

But now, he didn’t know what was wrong with him; suddenly remembering those things he had done, he felt an urge to kill himself.

These subtle changes of feelings were known only to him. At this moment, even he couldn’t understand the reasons, how could he possibly think about telling Steve Burton? So, after a long while, Howard Coleman only mentioned his initial thought when he took the knife for Madeleine: “No matter how I treated her, no matter how angry I was, when I saw that her life was in danger, I couldn’t just stand by and watch. Think about it, after all, we grew up together since we were kids. Even if we appeared to be enemies on the surface, in the end, she is still the sister I have cherished and protected for so many years. How could I possibly watch her die? That’s why I took that stab for her.”

...

–

The living room was exceptionally quiet. Through Steve Burton’s phone, the voice from Ruby Gregory’s phone, amplified, carried Howard Coleman’s clear words slowly.

Madeleine’s face, which was already pale, became completely colorless, even her lips turned snow white.

So, the stab that she had always held in her heart with a glimmer of hope, the one she had been obsessing over, was not because Howard Coleman had finally developed feelings for her.

The only reason she could get Howard Coleman to take that stab for her was due to their many years of companionship.

From the phone came Steve Burton’s usual indifferent tone, “So, what are your plans for the future with Madeleine?”

Howard Coleman, hearing Steve Burton’s words, was silent for a long time.

Sometimes, cruelty is just a matter of pride. His hardness and ruthlessness towards Madeleine had disappeared during his hospital stay. Now, he no longer harbored thoughts of forcing her to divorce him.

Therefore, deep down, he didn’t even know what plans he had for his future with Madeleine.

Howard Coleman lowered his gaze, and continued, “No plans really, maybe we’ll just live in peace for the rest of our lives. After all, there are plenty of marriages without love in this world, and they still manage to live well.”

At this point, Howard Coleman laughed lightly, trying to make his tone a bit lighter, then continued, “Bro, you think everyone is like you and Ruby, huh? In this lifetime, to marry and have children with the person you truly love, happy, until old age.”

–

Hearing this, Ruby Gregory felt Madeleine’s whole body begin to tremble. She quickly reached out and ended the call with Steve Burton.

The room, now devoid of the conversation between Steve Burton and Howard Coleman from the phone, seemed a bit chilly. Ruby Gregory, with a worried and uneasy heart, took a long time before she carefully spoke up, “Madeleine, you… ”

Ruby Gregory didn’t finish her sentence when Madeleine sniffled, as if nothing was wrong, turned her head, and gave Ruby Gregory a faint smile: “I’m fine. It’s getting late; I have to go to work at the office. Ruby, drive slowly when you go home later.”
