My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

However, it wasn’t the anger that surged in his heart. Instead, Stanford was in a panic. Without any hesitation, he rushed to follow her.

The tall and strong figure of Stanford was standing at the door, blocking Phoebe’s way.

Phoebe immediately paused, taking a few steps back to distance herself from him.

She slightly raised her head and looked at him in confusion.

“What are you doing?”

Looking at Phoebe’s aloof face, Stanford felt quite upset.

However, when he looked at the ponytail on her head, he felt relaxed actually.

Pressing his lips, Stanford whispered, “I’m here to take you back.”

Upon hearing it, Phoebe felt quite puzzled.

Her eyes twinkled, but in the end, they were dimmed.

She slightly bent down her head and said, “I’m pretty well when staying here. I can kneel to recite the scriptures and repent my sins. I’ll become calmer. You don’t need to feel guilty or sorry for me, nor do you need to force yourself to take care of me.”

He had said that he wouldn’t want to meet her again, so she wouldn’t show up in front of him to annoy him.

Her words were reechoed in his mind, ‘Kneel to recite the scriptures and repent my sins...’

Stanford looked at her in a daze, feeling as if there was a huge stone pressing on his chest. His breath became heavier.

It had been just a short period, Phoebe had lost a lot of weight. Her face was extremely pale without any color. Under her eyes, there were two huge dark circles.

Undoubtedly, he could tell how bad she had been in the past few weeks.

She knelt to recite the scriptures, and inwardly she kept feeling guilty and suffered.

Every day, she seemed to be living in hell.

She used to be optimistic and lively, but now she looked so dimmed, timid, and silent.

She wasn’t herself as before.

Stanford pressed his thin lips tightly, gazing at her deeply.
