Chapter 86
Frowning slightly, Abigail turned sideways subconsciously and then attacked the person by throwing the other party over her left shoulder.
"Ouch!" Genevieve suddenly cried out in pain, and after she fell to the ground, she rolled off more than 100 meters away.
Abigail frowned slightly at her.
What an annoying fly.
She now hated Genevieve more and more. Moreover, she seriously doubted Greg's tastes.
If the children were placed under Greg's care, it would be terrible for them to have a stepmother like this.
Abigail's eyes sank a little.
Before she could say anything, Genevieve jumped up, pointed at her, and scolded, "Abigail, you are really something! How could you actually seduce my man? How shameless are you? How dare you hit me as well? I want to sue you!"
"Go ahead!"
Abigail felt that even talking to Genevieve was a waste of words.
This woman is totally spoiled.
Abigail could not be bothered to stand here and wait for Greg, so she turned around and went to the VIP lane by herself.
"Stop there! Abigail! Ouch!"
Genevieve suddenly sprained her foot when she stepped on her shoe, and her eyes filled with tears, but Abigail ignored her. Abigail simply put on her sunglasses and walked away.
When Greg came back, he saw Genevieve squatting there and sobbing.
How could she be here?
Greg's eyes narrowed slightly.
Did she keep following me?
Thinking of this possibility, Greg suddenly became a little irritable.
Genevieve didn't seem to care about him so much before, but now she was following him. However, he didn't really think that it was because she loved him. Considering what he knew about Genevieve, she was only upset that her own toy was taken away by others. Even if she didn't like him, she had to take him back and then get rid of him herself.
So many years had passed. Hence, Greg knew Genevieve better than he knew himself.
Thus, he was inexplicably agitated when he asked, "Why are you here?"
After hearing Greg's voice, Genevieve immediately raised her head.
She blinked her tearful eyes and looked at Greg, saying, "Abigail hit me. Look, my arms are bruised, and my feet are sprained. Greg, she is not as gentle as she appears in front of you. Don't be fooled by her."
Genevieve was indeed a little disheveled at the moment. Her hair was completely messed up, her clothes were dirty, and most importantly, blood was oozing from her arms and her ankles were swollen.
It seemed that she was really bullied badly, but Greg knew Abigail.
She was not one to get into trouble randomly, and she wouldn't even take the initiative to attack others unless it was in self-defense.
Thinking of this possibility, Greg had his eyes sink a little.
"Did you hit her first?"
"I didn't. I just wanted her to leave you. I didn't expect her to beat me up. Greg, how could you be with such a vicious woman?"
Genevieve spoke in an aggrieved manner, then rubbed her arm and said, "I saw your helicopter arrived. You can take me back to Harrison."
If this were before, Greg would at once promise to take her away without saying a word, but today the helicopter was here for Abigail, so he had to be more cautious because he could see that Abigail didn't like Genevieve.
Greg looked at Genevieve and asked sternly, "I'm going to ask you once more: did you attack her first?"
"I said no! What's up with your attitude? Greg, you are completely fascinated by that woman now, aren't you?"
Genevieve was instantly furious.
In the past, Greg obeyed her, but now he actually questioned her.
How dare he question me!
Genevieve suddenly felt that the obedient man whose life revolved around her all day had disappeared. However, Greg was not affected by her at all. Instead, he found someone to retrieve the surveillance footage.
Seeing him do this, Genevieve changed her expression immediately.
"Greg, what are you doing?"
"I just want to know the truth." Greg's tone was flat, but his attitude was firm.
When it came to Abigail's matters, he was not hesitant at all.
Genevieve's eyes turned red with anger.
"Yes, yes! I attacked first, okay? She hooked up with my boyfriend!" Genevieve looked bad-tempered.
Nevertheless, Greg felt that what she said was particularly maddening, and he even frowned slightly.
"I'm your boyfriend? Are you sure?"
His eyes showed a hint of self-deprecation, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Genevieve's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?"
"If you really consider me as your boyfriend, then take a photo and post it on your social media account, saying that you and your boyfriend are on a romantic trip in Marona. Do you dare?"
Greg's eyes had a trace of lonesomeness when he said that.
At this moment, Genevieve suddenly didn't dare to look into his eyes. She turned her face away and said avoidantly, "Greg, what are you saying? We have been together for so many years, and we both know it. That's good enough. Why do I have to post it on my social media account?"
Although Greg had already guessed this outcome, his heart still ached uncontrollably.
This used to be the woman he loved! She was always like that but reluctant to let him go.
Greg felt that by now, his hopeful waiting for so many years was finally enough, and it was time to let go. After all, he was ready to leave his youthful perseverance in the past.
"Genevieve, if you really want to be my girlfriend, you should now announce it to the world about it. I, Greg Buckley, am not such a disgraceful man that I can't be seen with you in public. Moreover, I'm done with our relationship being kept under wraps. If you don't want to be my girlfriend, please let me go. Leave my life and my world, and just live your life well."
Greg rarely spoke to Genevieve so seriously. In fact, this was the first time and probably the last time.
At this point, Genevieve suddenly flew into a rage.
"What do you mean by that? Just because of Abigail, you treat me like this? Do you really need to do this? I've been with you for more than ten years, Greg. Do you really want me to leave you now? You've changed your mind about us, right?"
"Before you ask me that, you'd better answer me first: who is the person you love in your heart? You don't even dare to disclose our relationship with others. From the beginning to the end, I was the only one really involved in this relationship. When you're in a good mood, you come and play with me. When you're in a bad mood, you don't pay any attention to me at all. Even when you went to another city to give an academic lecture by yourself, you found someone to photoshop you and Cody shopping together, then post it on your social media. In your eyes, Cody will always be your first choice, even if he is already married. Just because his marriage is hidden, you won't give up, and you want to use public opinion to make people misunderstand his wife, Gillian Hines, and condemn her. Did you even think of me at that time?"
Greg's heart hurt. He really loved this woman, but no matter how deep his love was, it would slowly diminish over time.
When Genevieve harmed his self-esteem, again and again, to show off her joy in pursuing Cody, his love for her had already diminished.
This was the first time that Genevieve was questioned in this way by Greg, so she couldn't help being a little impatient.
"It's useless to talk about this. I've already said that I can only be Mrs. Kottler in my life. You yourself insisted on pursuing me, but now you come to blame me? Greg, what are you trying to say?"
Greg was so furious he laughed.
She's not wrong. She had long said that she could only be Mrs. Kottler in her life, but I was unwilling and wanted to keep her by my side again and again. She has indeed also given me hope and made me misunderstand that there was still a possibility of us being together.
Now he fully understood.
"So, what am I? Am I just a spare tire? Since you can only be Mrs. Kottler in your life, then Genevieve, please let me go. The position of Mrs. Buckley is not necessarily yours."
After speaking, Greg turned around and left but was grabbed by Genevieve all of a sudden.
"What do you mean? Do you really like that Abigail? What's so good about her?"
"She's not perfect, but at least she's more genuine than you. She's also more brutal than you."
Greg's words surprised Genevieve.
Brutal? How is that a good thing?
However, before she could make sense of it, Greg had already pulled away and strode toward the VIP lane.
Thinking of something, Genevieve said quickly, "Can you take me back to Harrion? No matter what, you can't leave me here."
"Go back by yourself! I'm sure your family can still afford a plane ticket for you."
After Greg finished speaking, he disappeared around the corner. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing that, Genevieve threw her heels in his direction angrily.
"Greg, you b*stard!" Her voice echoed loudly. The corners of Greg's lips twitched. Then he took a deep breath and put it all behind him.
To let go of a relationship that he had held for more than ten years was as painful as being cut open, but if she was a tumor, and if he couldn't bear the pain of cutting her off, he might end up dying himself.
Mom is right; Genevieve is really not suitable for me.
Greg came to the helicopter and entered it. Abigail glanced at him and was about to tell him that she had attacked Genevieve when she heard Greg say in a muffled voice, "Don't talk to me. I've just broken up and need to heal my heart."
Abigail was stunned for a long while.
He broke up? With who? Genevieve?
She felt a little surprised, but when she thought about it, it made sense.
As long as Greg still had common sense and was not completely blinded by love, he would still make this decision by himself. However, at this time, Greg was filled with such sadness that even she felt depressed.
"Isn't it just a breakup? Who hasn't experienced it before? Back then, I did not only break up, but I also lost my virginity. Didn't I move on past that? Surely you, as a man, will have more courage than me, right?"
Abigail's mocking tone made Greg's mood even worse.
"Nobody asked you to comment on it."
"I'm just trying to comfort you. You're really ungrateful," Abigail said lightly.
Greg's lips twitched slightly.
How is that comforting? Did she misunderstand the word 'comfort'?
However, Greg's sadness seemed to have eased a little after he spent the effort being annoyed at Abigail.
"Hey, did you really like Jonathan that much back then?" Greg boldly nudged Abigail with his arm and asked.
Abigail was slightly taken aback.
Did I like him? I think so.
After all, considering she was born into a family like hers, Jonathan was the only person who was nice to her at that time.
