His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 748

“Marilla, are you kidding me?!” Even the usually composed Thaddeus lost his cool, his large hands gripping her shoulders firmly, “Marriage isn’t child’s play; it’s about your lifetime of happiness! Do you even know what kind of man Alston is? Didn’t you see how cozy he was with Edith last time? Aren’t you afraid this is just another one of Edith’s schemes to get at you and Jareth?!”

Marilla let him shake her, her teary eyes quivering with emotion.

“Do you really not love Jareth anymore? Look me in the eyes and tell me, do you really not love him?!” Thaddeus‘ brows were furrowed with concern as he bombarded her with questions.

“Thaddeus, I’ve grown up. I’m not that little girl anymore, the one who used to lock herself in her room, too scared to face people, finding solace in sketches and dolls.”

Marilla’s voice was as soft as silk, but her stance was resolute, “I know what I’m doing, and I know what I want.” Voice trembling, the man asked, “Marrying Alston, is that what you want?”

“If I can’t be with Jareth, then it doesn’t matter whom I marry.”

“Who says you can’t be together? Jareth loves you deeply; he’d give up everything for you! If only you’d stand by him.”

“Thaddeus, I’m tired.”
