A Beautiful Misunderstanding

"Let bygones be bygones. There's no need for us to talk about it again," she replied lightly.

"Yes, it has been four years, after all." Walt smiled bitterly. She had totally forgotten him, whereas he had always thought of her and looked for her desperately.

After a moment's silence, he said, "Aren't you bothered by that matter between Zac and Valery?"

"I have no problem with anything that happened before I knew Zac," she said lightly with a shrug, deliberately putting on a nonchalant demeanor. In the Rong family, there were Valery and Mary, who were scheming and malicious toward her at every turn. They intended to have her kicked out of the family, so she must be extremely cautious with every word she uttered and every move she made.

Walt's eyes darkened. "It is good that you don't mind. That way, your relationship won't suffer."

"Don't worry, my relationship with Zac is stronger than the moorstone," said Essie with a light laugh, full of confidence in what she had just said. However, she thought she overdid it a bit. Acting for a few months was manageable for her, but putting on a performance for the rest of her life? That would probably drive her crazy. At times, Essie really admired Zac's proficiency in that department. The way he portrayed the perfect husband who ever constantly really impressed her. Even though in his eyes, she was but a troublesome headache, he was able to endure her presence. Sometimes, she even thought that her husband could give Jim a run for his money.

Walt didn't want to hear such words. The better the couple's relationship was, the greater the blow was to him. However, he did not wear his heart on his sleeve, and only a gentle expression was evident on his face. "We will be family in the future. If you need any help, just let me know. I'd be happy to help you out."

"Thank you, brother," Essie said with a smile. She had no idea that being addressed as such cut him deeply.
