Lori stared blankly at Hilla and unconsciously wrung her hands.
Hilla in front of her was confident and beautiful. Lori did not see a trace of unhappiness on her face.
Lori bit her lip. Her eyes were quite red. She was so frustrated that she felt as if she were to vomit a mouthful of blood.
Hilla had confidence in Bruce, whom she had spent time with.
But this confidence also made what Lori had done a joke. Lori's feelings were hurt.
"I, I do not believe it."
After a while, Lori opened her mouth and spoke slowly.
Lori sat quietly on the sofa, her thumbnails unconsciously digging into her index fingers.
But she didn't seem to feel any pain and was still sitting upright.
She raised her head to meet Hilla's gaze, smiled, tears streaming from her eyes, and said, "You were lying for the sake of your marriage, right? If you don't care about what happened last night, why did you lie to me? You are denying the truth because you don't want to argue with him. You are afraid..."
