Chapter 15
Carl thought that Jasmine wouldn’t forgive him, so he quickly got up from the ground and embraced Whitney. “I’m sorry, Jasmine, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have hurt you for Whitney. Will you forgive me?”
Hearing him passionately call out the name Jasmine, Whitney’s jealousy and rage almost consumed her whole being, as she tightly clenched her fist, digging her long nails into her palm, causing blood to blur.
She thought that after Jasmine left, she and Carl would get married and have children.
I didn’t expect that Carl was so indifferent to her.
He didn’t even want to touch her.
But Whitney didn’t want to miss out on such a good opportunity.
She suppressed her anger and forced a smile as she gently touched Carl’s handsome face.
“Carl, it’s me, Jasmine. I came back.”
Carl, who was drunk at the time, saw Whitney and Jasmine’s faces overlapping in front of him. Without hesitation, he leaned in and kissed Whitney, and they continued kissing as they walked, eventually ending up in bed together.
When Carl woke up again, his head was throbbing so much that it felt like it was about to explode. He raised his hand and felt the soft skin of
a woman.
Looking up, he saw Whitney sleeping soundly against his body.
“Whitney, how were you on my bed?”
Carl mercilessly yanked Whitney’s arm and threw her to the ground.
Meanwhile, the memories of last night came flooding back to Carl. He remembered mistaking Whitney for Jasmine and getting involved with her. He regretted it deeply, feeling a knot in his stomach. Through gritted teeth, he said, “I was drunk last night, were you drunk too?”
Whitney was awakened and heard Carl’s displeased voice. She had a look of grievance and said, “Carl, are you blaming me? Last night, you were too strong, and I couldn’t break free at all.”
Carl rubbed his sore eyebrows and said, “Whitney, just pretend that nothing happened last night.”
Hearing the sound, Whitney couldn’t believe it and widened her eyes, “What… pretend it never happened? Carl, don’t you plan to take responsibility for me?”
Carl frowned, “We’re all adults, isn’t a one–night stand normal? I made it clear to you before, I don’t love you anymore, and besides, I won’t marry a woman I don’t love.”
“Why did you marry Jasmine then? Did you fall in love with her?” Whitney snarled, roaring at Carl.
Carl fell silent for a moment, meeting Whitney’s crimson eyes, and then nodded solemnly.
Yes, I fell in love with her..

Whitney was shocked and couldn’t close her mouth. She seemed to have a hard time digesting this truth, tears streaming down her face. “Carl, didn’t you say you would take care of me for the rest of our lives? Yesterday, the doctor even said my depression has worsened. You can’t be so cruel to me.”
Hearing the sound, Carl sneered and said, “So you want to commit. suicide again?”
“If you really wanted to commit suicide, then I couldn’t stop you, right?”
Whitney didn’t expect Carl to be so heartless to her.
In the past, whenever he heard about her worsening condition, Carl would always comfort her with concern.
But now, Carl not only ignored, but also sarcastically mocked.
“Carl, why were you so indifferent to me now?”
Whitney’s heart was in agony, and she cried with tears streaming down
her face.
Unfortunately, Carl just looked at her coldly, “Whitney, you know what you did.”
Facing the woman he had once loved, Carl didn’t want to make things too ugly.
He got up from the bed and put on his clothes, while Whitney grabbed his arm and shouted, “So tell me, what did I do? What terrible thing did I do to deserve this kind of hurt from you?”
Carl coldly pushed her away, “Fine, then let me ask you, is your

depression real or fake?”
Upon hearing this sentence, Whitney felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She didn’t know how Carl had suspected it, but at the moment, she absolutely couldn’t admit that her depression was fake.
“Did you suspect me of pretending to be pitiful with depression?”
Do you have to see me die in front of you before you believe me?
Carl forced a smile and said, “At this point, you’re still acting? Do your think I would expose you if I didn’t have evidence? I heard your conversation with the psychologist yesterday afternoon, I was right outside the door.”
Whitney’s face turned instantly pale, and she trembled all over.
“Carl, listen to me, I really just loved you too much.”
“I never thought of hurting Jasmine.”
No matter how Whitney explained, Carl would not believe anymore.
“Wait until you moved out from the Sinclair family, I don’t want to see you again.”
After saying that, Carl left the room.
He went to the next door, and there was a photo of him and Jasmine on the table. I don’t know if it was forgotten by Jasmine. Jasmine in the photo was standing under the cherry tree, smiling sweetly at the camera, while he looked coldly at the camera. However, he never expected that one day, this photo would become his only obsession.
Carl glanced at the clock and it was already 8 o’clock in the morning,

which happened to be evening overseas.
He wanted to know if Jasmine was doing well abroad, so he called her. As the phone rang, he heard the familiar female voice.
He didn’t give up and dialed again with a different number.
This time, it unexpectedly connected. A flirtatious voice came from the other end, “Quentin, be gentle…”
Carl recognized Jasmine’s voice and although he couldn’t see the scene, as an adult man, how could he not know what she was doing.
“Jasmine, what were you doing?”
Carl didn’t hear the answer, and he hung up the phone directly.
