Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 2836: Chapter 2845: Using Someone’s Affection

Renee timely held him back, preventing him from hurting himself, ”It’s not your fault, it’s my own doing. I...in any case, don’t blame yourself, it really has nothing to do with you.”

Had she not said this, it would have been better; the more she said it, the more Austin felt pained.

He believed Renee was trying to help him, which led to the current situation, bearing this hurt.

”What do you plan to do now? What did Adam say? Is he going to take responsibility?” Austin was distraught; he didn’t want Adam to be responsible, but if Adam wasn’t, he would be furious.

Renee lowered her head, most of her face shrouded in shadow, speaking in a low mood, ”He didn’t say anything, I said not to make him responsible. We’re all adults now, he was just drunk, and I know about his girlfriend now, he really likes his girlfriend. I hope he pretends nothing happened, so he can live without any psychological burden.”

”What did you say?” Austin nearly exploded in anger, grabbing her wrist, he said resentfully, ”He did something worse than a beast to you, and you let him pretend nothing happened! Since he has a girlfriend and likes her, why did he do this to you? Sister Renee, come on, I’ll take you to find him! What gives her the right to compare with you? We grew up together since childhood, it would be something if he was a stranger, but he did something wrong with you, he must be responsible!”

Renee couldn’t possibly let him go find Adam, going to find Adam would mean her efforts in misleading him were in vain.

Her face pale, she held onto his hand, refusing to go, ”I’m not going.”

”Sister Renee, are you just going to let this go! I’m choking on this anger! How could he do this to you? He clearly liked you so much before, if he hadn’t liked you, I would’ve pursued...” Austin choked back his words and continued, ”You simply can’t let it go. Sister Renee, it’s because of me that you’re in this situation, today I’ll risk my life to get justice for you!”

With that, he was about to drag Renee to confront Adam.

Renee saw that she couldn’t stop him. Her eyes reddened, tears the size of beans rolled onto his hand that was almost about to explode in rage, her voice hoarse and fragile, ”Can we stop talking about it? I don’t want to go. Can you leave me some dignity? Do you have to leave me with no self-respect?”

The tears she shed burned Austin’s heart with pain, and his anger slowly subsided.

Renee continued, ”It’s not his fault, he was drunk, I brought him here. I...”

She gave a self-deprecating laugh, tears streaming down, ”It was my own doing, I thought he would wait for me there. I didn’t expect him to have a girlfriend, and I’ve never been able to accept it. When he held me, I didn’t push him away immediately, at the end of the day, it’s my own fault. He already has a girlfriend, yet I didn’t push him away, what does that make me? What face do I have to ask him to take responsibility?”

She’s had enough pain today that she could cry anytime.

Renee took the opportunity to vent properly, her voice choked with sobs, ”Let this matter go, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Austin, lend me 300 thousand, that would help me, once I raise enough money, I’ll pay you back first thing. Or do you not trust me.”

”I trust you!” Austin gritted his teeth tightly, his heart wrenched with her tears, but seeing her like that, he couldn’t bring himself to say he wanted to confront Adam.
