Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Serenity was having mixed emotions when Selena started to recount what happened.

John wasn’t doing well in the Grant family back then. He had fallen out with Chris Grant and was often repressed by Shia Grant after entering Grant Group.

How could he think of giving Serenity a good life as his wife when he hadn’t sorted his out yet?

At the same time, Selena received 10% of Rivers Group from Benjamin for her birthday. It was no mystery to anyone by then that Selena would be the one to inherit Rivers Group.

Marrying Selena would mean that he would also have the backing of the Rivers group to strengthen his position in Grant Group. With that in mind, John proposed a fake marriage to Selena.

It took Selena three days of careful thought before agreeing.

She had two reasons for doing so. The first was that she had always been envious of John and Serenity’s beautiful love that lasted for more than ten years. The second was due to her love life.

When Serenity agreed to Benjamin’s proposal for her to study abroad, John was devastated.

Every night after she left, he would stay up late at social gatherings, drink until his stomach bled, and shout Serenity’s name over and over again until he passed out.

As Serenity listened to Selena recount the backstory, the former turned as pale as a sheet of paper. With difficulty, she said, “So, you guys teamed up to deceive me…”

Selena took a sip of water to moisten her throat before looking back at the pale-faced Serenity. “Do you still think that he has given up on you and doesn’t love you anymore?”

Selena had witnessed how hard it had been for John to love Serenity from afar in secret. He loved her so passionately only for her to end up with someone else.

That man had suffered too much, so this was the last thing she wanted to do for John.

She remembered the night of their wedding – she had asked him if he regretted anything. He grabbed his hair in pain. “I can endure all the suffering and torture, but Serene is so innocent. She shouldn’t have to endure all this.”

Hearing the words coming out of Selena’s mouth made Serenity’s eyes fill with white mist. For a moment, she felt like tears were about to burst out of her eyes, but she bit her lip and tried her best to suppress her emotions.

No longer able to continue listening, Serenity grabbed her handbag and rushed out of the restaurant as Selena’s gentle yet poisonous voice rang in her mind, assaulting her nerves over and over again..
