Chapter 331 "Bryant, in your envisioned grand plan, am I supposed to be grateful and teary-eyed by now?" I asked sarcastically.
"No." Avoiding my gaze, Bryant loosened his tie with one hand, "I just hoped life could be a bit easier for you." "Sure." I didn't rush to disagree, speaking softly, "So, nyour price.

As for me? I'd lost all trust in him.
Why insist on staying together then? He suddenly looked at me, his lips a tight line, "Jane..." I smiled, "Didn't you say you wantedto have it easy?" "With RF backing you up, you'll have it easy." I looked down at the bustling traffic below the skyscraper, and after a moment of silence, I felt a wave of melancholy, "Bryant, you've never understood what I truly want.

Bryant seerned to have a lot he wanted to say, his voice tight, "No matter what, you won't forgive me?"
A bitter smile tugged at my lips.
"Whether I forgive you or not isn't important. You should ask our child if she forgives you.”
