The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 877

Carrie bit her lip, her brows furrowing as she softly recounted, “Two years ago, one night, I couldn’t sleep and found myself wandering around the house. I saw Annie entering Justin’s room alone. Back then, Justin wasn’t fond of her, and they rarely shared the bed. Most of the time, they slept in separate rooms. The three years Annie spent married to Justin were incredibly difficult. I could see that she loved him deeply but was too afraid to approach him. Annie could only silently watch over him. During quiet nights when Justin was away, she would sometimes lie on his bed for a while, secretly wear his shirts, and spray his cologne. However, she never let him find out about all of this. Annie truly loved Justin. She loved him so humbly Sometimes, I feel heartbroken for her.”

Even Ryan found it difficult to listen to this, feeling Bella’s pain was undeserved.

Perhaps the most agonizing thing was not when two people drifte apart, but having the person you love deeply within reach, yet knowing you could never truly have them.

“That night, I saw Annie enter Justin’s bedroom. Soon after, Justin came home, completely drunk and reeking of alcohol. His face was flushed like he had a fever.”

Ryan seemed to remember the occasion. It was the anniversary of Justin’s mother’s death, and he had organized a gathering with friends to help Justin cope.

The night was chaotic, and Justin must have had numerous drinks, completely blacking out.

Later, Ryan escorted Justin back to Tideview Manor. Justin was then helped into the house by the housekeeper. Ryan had no clue about what happened after that.
