Falling For My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 390

Jalen’s frown lines went deeper. He looked at Elaina in disbelief. “You saw the photo?”

Elaina did not deny it, because she didn’t have to. It was the truth.

“You went to my study?” Jalen had placed the photo in the study, but he didn’t put it on the table. If Elaina had not rummaged around in his study, she wouldn’t see it at all.

Elaina was not afraid of his anger. Instead, she was amused. “Yes, I did.”

She wanted to see what Jalen would do to her next. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Jalen was angry and had the urge to beat someone up. He was not getting mad at Elaina, but at himself.

He took a deep breath and calmed down after a while. “It’s not what you think, Ella. I actually have nothing to do with Ethel.”

“Oh, then who is she to you? Will you swear that you didn’t get close to me because I looked like her?” Elaina stared straight at Jalen, not giving him any chance to lie.

Jalen said nothing.

He couldn’t, because when he first met Elaina, he paid attention to her because she looked similar to Ethel.

But Jalen could swear that his love for her had nothing to do with Ethel.

Elaina did not know this. She only saw that Jalen remained silent.

In her eyes, the silence was equal to acquiescence.

At this moment, Elaina felt as if her heart was broken. Her eyes turned red. “Good, very good!”

She had never thought that she would become someone else’s substitute one day.

“Ella…” When Jalen saw the pain in her eyes, he also felt his heart broken.

“Alright, I got it. You don’t need to explain.” She smiled bitterly. Now she finally understood why Jalen liked her.

It did make sense. How could a man like Jalen fall for someone like her?

It turned out that the person he liked was not her. He had been looking at someone else through her eyes.

Ridiculous!

“No! You don’t understand. My feelings for you have nothing to do with Ethel,” Jalen quickly explained. He felt that Elaina had misunderstood him.

But how could Elaina believe his words now? She only felt that he was quibbling around. “I won’t be anyone’s substitute.”

“You are not…” Jalen wanted to explain again.

“We are over.” Elaina interrupted him. She looked so determined and her eyes were so cold.

Perhaps she had already made a decision when she saw Ethel’s photo, but she still had hope in her heart. Because she wished that all of this was just a misunderstanding.

But now she knew that this was not a misunderstanding. Jalen liked her just because she looked extremely similar to Ethel.

Her words stunned Jalen completely. He never expected Elaina so easily to say they were over.

After a while, Jalen came back to his senses and looked at Elaina. “Are you sure?”

Elaina firmly looked back at him. “Why am I not sure? I’m not as noble as you, but I’m not going to be anyone’s substitute.”

If she was not the only one to him, she would rather leave him.

Even though she felt heartbroken and she didn’t want to part with him, her rationality told her that if she didn’t make a quick break, she would suffer more.

From the moment Jalen saw Jaydon, he had anger in his heart. Now, his anger surged and got him completely. But he had nowhere to vent his anger, which made him feel worse.

“Alright, I respect your decision.” Jalen did not explain further, or perhaps he felt that it would be useless.

He turned around and left without looking back. Elaina stayed still and did not chase after him.
