Chapter 378 I Have My Reasons

Dalton never thought that one day he would be so humble and cry bitterly for a woman.

In his arms, Meryl subconsciously raised her hand to slap him, but his tears made her withdraw it.

She sighed, "Dalton, Chandler didn’t force me. I did it voluntarily. I don’t love you anymore. He has captured my heart.”

“You’re lying!” Tears welled up in Dalton’s eyes. “How could you not love me! Meryl, there’s no one else here. As long as you agree, I will be with you forever! I’ll take you away!”

He was very excited. He said he would be with her forever.

Meryl just found it ridiculous. She distanced herself from him. “You want to be with me forever, but what about Lydia?”

“I hate her so much now! I don’t love her at all! Don’t mention her!” Dalton’s disgust for Lydia was evident.

“Since you have no interest in her, why don’t you be a witness? She plotted the kidnapping case three years ago and conspired with Rocky to frame me. Rocky changed his confession after entering the police station, and you didn’t tell the police what you knew. In other words, you let her off the hook.”

Meryl gazed up at Dalton. “You claim that you hate her, but you are kind to her. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous?”

He explained, “I have my reasons!”

“Reasons? What are they? Is it because she’s pregnant with your child, or are you hesitant? Is your mother pressuring you? You are husband and wife now, yet you still pester me. I beg you, be together forever, please.”

Meryl cast an icy glance at Dalton and turned around without hesitation.

“Meryl! Listen to my explanation!”

“That’s enough. Dalton, stop pretending to be affectionate. I’ve said before that I love Chandler. We are already through. Don’t bother me anymore. It will only make me look down on you.”

As Meryl was determined to leave, Dalton stared at her back with his bloodshot eyes.

“Meryl, why did you come to the hospital? Aren’t you here to visit me because you are worried about me?”

“You are narcissistic. I came to the hospital for myself, of course. It has nothing to do with you."

Dalton instantly became concerned about her and caught up with her. “Are you sick? What’s wrong with you?”

Recalling that Meryl had just come out of the gynecology department, he suddenly realized something. His eyes widened in disbelief and fell on her belly. “Meryl, are you pregnant?”

Meryl was unwilling to share too much with Dalton. She booked an early morning flight, eager to head to Griffore and tell Chandler the good news in person.

Meryl reached out to open the emergency door. Unexpectedly, Dalton hugged her waist from behind. She was frightened and instinctively stepped on him.

“What are you doing? Dalton, I’m Chandler’s wife!”

“Meryl, don’t be angry with me. Chandler’s wife? Do you believe he really likes you? He is just using you.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Meryl, you are naive. Why do you think Uncle Chandler married you? You probably don’t know it’s because…”

“I won’t believe anything you say!” Meryl interrupted Dalton coldly. She broke free from his grip and slapped him hard.
