The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 1233 She Refused To Surrender

“Mrs. Harding, please hear me out,” Kailee pleaded, her eyes turning red as tears streamed down her face. “I was just too fond of Garrett, so I lost my head and did something wrong. I came to apologize to you today.”

Vera looked at Kailee with suspicion, knowing that this woman was up to no good. Despite that, Vera couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic as she gazed at Kailee crying so pitifully.

Was it true that Kailee had simply been too enamored with Garrett, and as a young girl, had been carried away by her emotions, leading her to do those foolish things?

Kailee quickly nodded and assured her, “Yes, I am! You’re the elder I respect the most, and my feelings for Garrett overwhelmed me. Seeing him marry filled me with such sorrow that I acted irrationally. Please, believe me.”

Vera almost wanted to console Kailee, but then she recalled Leo’s warning. Her face darkened again as she said, “I accept your apology, but please leave. You’re not welcome in our family.”

Seeing Vera so guarded against her, Kailee gritted her teeth so hard that she almost broke them.
