"While waiting for you to come back just now, I kept wondering why, but I just couldn’t figure it out." Sally said with tears in her eyes, "Nathan, tell me, is it something I’ve done wrong, or is Barker not treating you well?"

"Sally!" Nathan Leafcastle reached out to support her shoulder, "Let’s talk it over slowly, don’t cry, when you cry, my mind gets really messed up..."

Sally Dalton raised her hand to push away his palm, "Enough! Even now, you’re still deceiving me like this!"

She stood up and walked away from his side.

"Remember I told you before, I wouldn’t force you, but why do you have to do this, why?"

Nathan Leafcastle also stood up, "What exactly did I do wrong?"

"Even now, you still refuse to tell me the truth." Sally shook her head, disappointment coloring her eyes, "Fine, you want to know what’s wrong, I’ll tell you what’s wrong!"

She grabbed her bag from the sofa, yanked open the zipper, and took out the documents she got from her father, slamming them heavily on the coffee table.

"Nathan, tell me, what exactly is going on here?"

The documents scattered on the coffee table, photos flew everywhere, and one slid down to land at Nathan Leafcastle’s feet.

He lowered his face, and looking at the photo of himself with Smith, Nathan was also greatly shocked.

As he scanned the photos on the coffee table, his face turned pale.

"I always thought you were the most upright man I had met, now that I think about it, it’s really laughable." Sally raised her hand to wipe her face, laughing self-deprecatingly, "I foolishly thought that after the storm, I’d see the moonlit night. I really am stupid!"

"Sally!" Nathan rushed forward, grabbing her arm, "Listen to me, I have reasons for doing this, I wasn’t targeting Barker, I was only targeting Kris Cooper, I just wanted to give Vera..."

"Enough!" Sally flung his arm away, "Kris Cooper, Vera... In your heart, I’ve never existed."

"It’s not like that, Sally, I really wanted to marry you..."

"And then what, marry me on paper, while your heart is always thinking of Vera, right?"

"I..."

Nathan was at a loss for words.

"Cat got your tongue?" Sally looked at him heartbroken, "As I thought, from start to finish, you... never loved me!"

When she said this, she almost couldn’t breathe.

Having loved a man with all her heart for six years, only for it to end like this, how could she not be heartbroken.

Reaching for her bag, she turned and rushed toward the door.

"Sally..." Nathan chased her, grabbing her wrist, "Whether you believe it or not, I really intended to marry you and spend a lifetime together, and this time..."

"Let go!" Sally flung him off, quickly walking to the door, holding the doorknob, then stopping her steps, "From today on, we have nothing to do with each other, and you don’t need to go to Barker either!"

She pulled the door open fiercely and rushed out of the room.

"Sally!"

Nathan followed her down the steps, but she had already gotten into her car and drove away.

Watching her tail lights quickly disappearing, Nathan stood powerlessly in the same spot.

After a while, he walked back up the steps and slammed the door heavily.

Not far away, a figure emerged from behind the greenery, glanced at his door, and immediately took out a phone to dial Kris Cooper’s number.
