Chapter 121 Go Away!

Regret filled Erin.

She grew introspective as she wondered what wickedness could have possessed her to bring Angie back into her home. Had she not done so, Angie would never have climbed into Nicholas’ bed and had relations with him. Alina would never have caught them in bed together and become so infuriated that she felt compelled to say such venomous things to Nicholas.

At the same time, Erin didn’t know why she had been so intent on seeing the main family suffer. If everything was fine on their end, Jack and Nicholas would’ve benefited from it too. If they were having a hard time, however, she and her sons would gain nothing whatsoever.

What was I thinking at that time? Why was I so thrilled by the idea of using Angie to aggravate Crystal? Why did I insist on bringing Angie home?

Indeed, Erin had no personal grudges against Crystal. She must have lost a couple of screws when she thought about using Angie to hurt Crystal, for she wanted nothing more than to see the woman drop dead from anger.

Crystal’s life and death didn’t affect her in the slightest, and she certainly had nothing to gain. In light of that rhetoric, she wondered why she simply had to start trouble by painstakingly butting into the main family and Angie’s personal affairs.

Not only had she gained nothing out of her schemes, but she also managed to ruin her son’s engagement to the love of his life. Not to mention, she was on the verge of being thrown out of the house by her own husband.

Why did I bring this on myself? How did I manage to make a mess out of my own life?

She was sorely and truly regretting all of this. If she had a chance to turn back time, she would learn her place and leave the main family alone. She would not interfere with their personal affairs and she would stay quiet throughout.

However, regret was an incurable affliction. There was no point letting it fester when it would hardly change anything. As such, she could only hold onto Morgan for as long as she could. She would not divorce him, not even if she had to die to maintain that assertion.

Morgan was just as stubborn as she was. He took out his phone to call his lawyer and have him draft up the divorce paperwork.

Upon seeing this, Erin let out a shrill cry and ran to snatch the phone, but he shoved her to the ground. When she landed, she coincidentally fell in a heap in front of Angie, the sight of whom made her features twist with a grimace. “This is your fault!”

Erin scrambled to get to her feet and rush up to Angie. She grabbed a fistful of her hair and began to strike her maniacally. “This is all your fault! All of it! You caused my son to lose everything, and my life is falling apart right now! You abominable tramp! You’re just a homewrecker!”

“No, that’s not true! That was not how things happened!” Angie struggled to break free as she flailed her arms to shove the angry woman off her.

It wasn’t long before they were locked in a vicious catfight.

Morgan watched this and closed his eyes tiredly, and he beckoned for his personal bodyguard. “Separate them and send Angie to the Colt Residence.”

The bodyguard nodded, and with a few of his men, he went on to separate Angie from Erin.

Two guards approached Angie to apprehend her, but she quickly clambered over to where Nicholas was as she cried, “Nicholas, save me. I don’t want to be escorted by guards to the Colt Residence. Save me, Nicholas! I love you, I really do, and I’ve given myself to you. You have to save me and marry me. Make me your wife, and I promise I’ll fulfill all my wifely duties! I’ll always be kind to you and start a family with you. We’ll be happy together!”

Nicholas’ face was devoid of color and warmth, and he was trembling with anger as he reached for a nearby object and hurled it in Angie’s direction. “Go away! You’d better go away right now! I don’t want to see you ever again in this lifetime! Get out, get out, get out!”

This was the worst day of his life, for he had lost the woman he loved most in a very humiliating manner. Alina was the first and only girl he ever loved, but she had broken up with him and articulated her immense disappointment in him. She even scoffed at him and looked upon him with contempt, deeming him someone whom she could not spend forever with.

He knew Alina well enough to know she would never come back to him.

He had spent years and energy on pursuing her before finally succeeding, and now, he had lost her entirely. He wasn’t sure if he hated Angie or if he hated himself more.

Angie was despicable and selfish, and he was foolish and gullible. He wished he had been smart enough to see through Angie’s plans so that he would not lose the love of his life. Alas, it was too late now for what-ifs and what-could-have-beens.

All of a sudden, it was as if a dark storm cloud loomed over him, and he was so anguished that he couldn’t stop shivering.

Presently, when Angie saw the hatred on Nicholas’ face, she felt as if she had been thrown into a cellar, and a chill ran down her spine.

She had failed, and things had turned out more differently than she thought. She had been convinced that Nicholas would take responsibility for her and marry her as long as they had had relations. Such a conviction was premised on his love for her, paired with the confidence that Michael and his sons would stand up for her. She was sure they would force Nicholas to take her for a wife.

However, everyone’s reaction was different from what she had imagined it to be. Michael and his sons couldn’t care less about her when they left the house; Nicholas not only refused to marry her, but he also hated her with a passion now.

How can they do this to me?

She had been with the Wendels for the last two decades or so, and in that time, everyone treated her like she was made out of precious jewels. They took care of her and loved her unconditionally.

However, the moment they found out that she was not part of the Wendel Family bloodline at all, it had taken them all but a day to turn heartless. Is blood really thicker than water? Are they really going to be so mean to me?

Michael and his sons did not stand up for her at all. They had been the ones who loved her and came to her defense in the past, but even they had turned their backs on her. Who else can I turn to now?

She stared at Nicholas and sobbed with all her might. “Nicholas, you can’t do this to me. You have always been kind to me over the last twenty years, so how could you hate me now? You can’t just do this to me! You can’t!”

Nicholas clenched his fists and tried to exercise restraint. It was only by sheer force of will that he did not rush up to her and kill her with his own hands. He turned to look at her with red eyes and snapped, “Yes, I was nothing but kind to you, and I loved you the most! I was so kind that even when Uncle Michael and Aunt Crystal didn’t want to take you in, my mom and I offered you a place in our home. How did you thank me for it, though? By making me lose the only girl I ever loved. You climbed into my bed and you deliberately allowed Lina to…”

He trailed off when he thought about what Alina had said, and his heart twisted painfully in his chest. A grimace flashed on his handsome face as he turned around abruptly and growled, “Get out! Get her out of here and back to the Colt Residence! I don’t ever want to see her again! Get her out of this house!”

He was sure that if he went on to speak to her, he would lose control and strangle her to death.

Morgan’s bodyguard made an affirmative reply and dragged Angie out the door with added force.

She struggled against the bodyguard, but she could not break free from a grown man’s custody. Hence, it wasn’t long before she was hauled out of the living room and into the car.

She cried and shrieked as she tried to leap down from the car. In the end, the bodyguard couldn’t help knocking her out by dealing a swift chop to the back of her neck.

Suddenly, darkness filled her vision, and she felt herself grow limp. Before she blacked out, the only thought that crossed her mind was how this was the end of her.

After this, she would no longer have anything to do with the Wendels. They were a large family, yet not a single one of them had spoken up for her throughout all this.

They were the wealthiest family in Wendel City, the most glamorous, and they were always filled with love and laughter. She would no longer be a part of all this, and she hated it. She hated the fact that she had been so happy and fortunate until recently. How did I become like this? This isn’t fair…

She blacked out feeling nothing but hopelessness and regret.Original content from .

The car drove away, and as soon as it did, Morgan’s lawyer came by the house with the drawn-up divorce paperwork.
