Chapter 404 What Trick Are You Trying to Pull Again?

I froze. That night, I was tied up by Ezra and he took away my phone. This could indeed explain everything.

It was indeed Ezra's trap, but it also confirmed that his relationship with Marjorie was truly as I had seen.

For a moment, it felt as if millions of knife blades were piercing my heart, the pain was so interise that it was hard to breathe. I couldn't blame Walter, nor did I have the right to accuse him. The one who was wrong in this matter, from beginning to end, was the instigator, Ezra.

Everyone was a victim.

Looking at the upright Walter in front of me, he had lost weight. Touching his face, I forced a smile and said, "Walter, let me go. Since things have already come to this, treat Marjorie well. I love Daniel very much. I'm letting you two be together, so please do the same for us. Can we part on good terms, okay?"

Walter's eyes reddened as he looked at me, his voice hoarse and restrained, "You said you loved him?"

I nodded, moistening my dry lips, "Walter, I'm sorry, one can't always live in the past."

He suddenly burst into laughter as if he had heard a joke. After a while, he looked at me almost in despair and said, "Fine, I'll grant you that." Then he filled out the form without saying a word and signed it. "For what reason did the two of you decide to part ways?" The stall member asked as he looked through the documents.

I pursed my lips and glanced at Walter beside me. He didn't look at me, just said in a low, somber voice, "I don't love anymore."

Upon hearing his words, the staff member looked up. Perhaps it was because the man was extraordinarily handsome, the staff member was taken aback for a moment, looking at me with some confusion, she asked, "And you, ma'am?"

I suppressed the bitterness in my heart and calmly said, "I don't love

anymore."

The staff member let out a slight sigh and stamped the document.

When we decided to become a couple, we were not filled with joy. Now, when we decide to become strangers, it's like all resentful couples parting ways. With a simple "I don't love you anymore", we turn our backs on each other, parting ways and feeling relieved.

Leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding the red book in my hand, I looked at him and managed a smile, saying, "Goodbye."

He looked at me, his eyes filled with restrained crimson, not uttering a single word, yet it spoke volumes.

“Tabatha.” Ezra got out of the car, came over to me, put his arm around my shoulder, and looked at Walter with a raised eyebrow and a smile, “Mr. Hinton, thank you for your generosity."

Walter looked at him coldly, his voice low and icy, "Daniel, it's not good to overstate things."

"Pfft!" Ezra chuckled, giving him a defiant look. "Whether it's good or not, it's none of your business. Tabatha, let's go. We're going home."

After speaking, he put his arm around me and we got into the car. Before closing the car door, Ezra looked at Walter and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell Mr. Hinton. Tabatha and I are planning to have our

wedding in River City at the end of the month. We hope Mr. Hinton will honor us with his presence."

I furrowed my brows, momentarily frowning, a wedding? At the end of the month?

What was Ezra up to again?.

Walter didn't look at him, but stared straight at me with his dark eyes. I pursed my lips, avoiding his gaze, and tacitly accepted Ezra's words.

"Mr. Hinton!" A soft feminine voice rang out, I instinctively looked over, it was Marjorie. She seemed to have a fondness for pink. Now that spring had arrived, the already beautiful woman, after careful dressing, was even more stunning.

Seeing her, Walter's handsome brows slightly furrowed, he didn't speak.

Instead, he glanced at me and said to Ezra, "Alright, I will definitely give Mr. Monroe a big red envelope then."

"Thanks a lot." Ezra laughed boisterously, got into the car, glanced at Marjorie who was following behind Walter, and turned back to me, "Such a woman, indeed has some charm, it would be unreasonable if Walter didn't fall for her, wouldn't it?"
