Chapter 417 Can You Bear to Abadon Me?
Roseane was a little speechless after hearing what he said.
"So the reason why you refused to let me go was because I was too nice to you before?"
Matthew nodded. He was telling the truth. Not even his parents could treat him as well as Roseane.
In the past, he didn't feel anything, but after Roseane left, he finally came to his senses.
In this world, there was probably no one who was as good as Roseane. It was all his fault for being blind and failing to treasure Roseane.
Roseane's anger was originally suppressed, but it was completely ruined by Matthew's explanation.
She thought that since Matthew had helped her today, she should still be kind to him because of their past.
She could just ignore the fact that he had lied to her before and talk to him calmly. She thought she could make things clear so that she would regain her freedom and peace.
Of course, she had to admit that she had hidden expectations in her heart.
She hoped that he could persuade her to stay, and she hoped that he could respond to her feelings, even if it was just a little bit of love.
But she didn't expect that the reason why Matthew refused to let go was this ridiculous.
How cheap was she? After fully realizing that Matthew didn't love her, she could continue to treat him well regardless of everything.
Roseane replied with a sneer, "You are the young master of the Valentine family, and you have countless assets. It will be just a piece of cake if you want to find a woman who is devoted to you. As long as you spread the news, I believe that every woman will rush to you."
Matthew didn't like her tone very much, but he still said honestly, "But those people will only come to me for my money. You're different. You care about me instead of my money"
His intention was to tell her that no one would treat him as good as she did. That was why he cherished her even more.
However, for some reason, the words that came out of his mouth made Roseane even angrier.
"So, just because I was sincere to you before and took care of you like a nanny, you could trample on my feelings at will? You even want to bind me by your side and ignore what I want?"
"Matthew, why are you so selfish?"
Matthew was stunned by Roseane's words. It took him a while to come to his senses.
He wanted to explain, but he couldn't.
But no matter what, he would not let go, nor would he divorce Roseane. He would just let her misunderstand him.
"Whatever you say. Anyway, I won't divorce you."
Roseane was pissed off by him. Matthew had always been stubborn. As long as he was determined, she could never change his mind.
Having suffered such a loss before, Roseane understood that it was pointless to say too much to him. Immediately, she became even angrier.
"Whether you agree or not, I will divorce you! When we get back to Krine, we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau!"
Matthew frowned. "I won't go."
"Then I'll appeal!"
"You..."
Roseane glared at him fiercely, and the hatred surged in her heart. "You, you, you are a liar!"
"What liar?" Matthew was stunned.
"Do you dare to say that you've never lied to me?"
Matthew frowned. Before he could say anything, Roseane had already stepped forward and ripped off his clothes.
"Didn't you say that you fought with someone before and that your chest is injured? Where's the wound?"
"I..."
Only then did he recall the lie earlier on. It was only an excuse to cover up the fact that he had donated his kidney. His intention was not to let Roseane worry.
"What excuse do you have? I heard what you said on the phone before. You pretended to be injured just to fool me!"
"I didn't fool you. You misunderstood me."
"Misunderstanding? Then tell me, where did I misunderstand you?"
"My injury..." Matthew thought for a while, but he still couldn't tell her about him donating the kidney.
The burden on Roseane was too great. Matthew didn't want to put pressure on her, so he had to swallow the truth.
"I did get hurt before, not my chest, but my leg," Matthew said, "but I know that if I said that my leg was injured, you would definitely think that I was lying."
Roseane was startled and subconsciously looked at his legs.
"Are you still thinking that you can fool me?" Roseane glared at him angrily.
Did he think she would still believe what he said? He was simply a liar and everything he said was just a lie!
Matthew let out a long sigh and finally said, "I admit that I lied to you about being injured."
"But I only did that because I was afraid that you wouldn't want to see me and you would chase me back to Krine."
Roseane did not speak for a long time. She glanced at him with suspicion. "Is what you said true?"
Matthew nodded. "What's more, my legs are indeed injured. You heard the doctor scold me just now, didn't you? The injuries on my legs are not recovered yet. When I fought with Mr. Williams, he didn't go easy on me."
"That's what you deserved."
Matthew touched his nose and said guiltily, "I didn't blame him."
Seeing him like this, Roseane's heart softened. She lowered her head to check on his injuries and asked worriedly, "Will it take very long for your legs to recover?"
The corners of Matthew's lips lifted secretly. Just as he was about to say something, Roseane suddenly came to her senses.
"No, we were obviously talking about the divorce just now. Why did you change the topic again?"
Matthew was speechless.
He was not the one who changed the topic.
He simply pretended to be pitiful. "My legs are already like this, and I will probably be disabled in the future. Can you bear to abandon me and divorce me?"
"Even if you are disabled, you are still a member of the Valentine family."
The heir of the Valentine family was not from the same world as her.
Matthew was about to speak when Roseane's phone rang.
Roseane took out her phone and looked at it. She didn't avoid Matthew and deliberately answered loudly.
"Gellert, I was just about to call you."
Matthew frowned. It was that man again.
Why was he always looking for her?
On the other end of the phone, Gellert's voice was very gentle. "I brought some food for Mrs. Comtois. I only found out that she's been transferred to another hospital after I asked around. Did something happen? Why did you leave so suddenly?"
"It's nothing. It's all in the past. But the medical facilities of the hospital in Krine are better than that of the town. In order to reduce the risk of surgery, we made this decision. We left in a hurry and forgot to tell you. I'm really sorry."
Gellert heaved a sigh of relief. "I see."
Roseane said, "I'm sorry for troubling you to bring us food. I really don't know how to thank you enough."
Gellert smiled. "What are you talking about? Roseane, you saved my life. You don't have to be so polite to me."
Hearing his words, Roseane suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"That happened a long time ago. Besides, the person who saved you was not me. I just helped to call the adult."
"It may be nothing for you, but it saved my life."
Gellert chuckled from the other end of the line. "Is Mrs. Comtois going to get transferred to the hospital in Krine today? Send me the location after you settle down. I'll be there with you on the day of her surgery."
