My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1716: Chapter 1510: Time’s Up

”Actually, you don’t need to thank me. I kept this matter under wraps only for the hundred-year reputation, there’s no way I could just stand by. But in your heart, you know very well the things you’ve done. I will definitely not easily choose to forgive you. The harm you’ve brought me is too deep, and I’m not a naive person, nor am I an ignorant child who will easily believe every word you say!

Maybe you think every word I’m saying now hurts you, maybe it makes you feel ashamed, but have you really asked yourself, haven’t the things you’ve done made me sad? If you hadn’t truly hurt me, hurt my genuine feelings for you, how could I treat you like this today? Those happy days before mean so little in your eyes, you could give up our once happy married life for another man. You’re so selfish, how could I love you like before, pretending nothing happened, and forgive you? I’m not a Saint, I can’t do it; like those men whose actions are only weak acts, but I am an economic emperor, I have to support the economy of the whole world!

One day you might understand that everything I did, maybe really hurt and disappointed you, but you’ll also know what kind of ending it would be if things weren’t done this way.”

Ran Zhihan knows very well what kind of ending he would face if he hadn’t taken many actions back then, and what kind of ending he would have to face by doing so. It’s not that his heart is unclear, but he simply cannot choose to speak about such things.

Everyone has dignity in their hearts, everyone has a bottom line, patience has its limits. My husband has tolerated me to this extent, what more can I ask for? This is all because of my own mistakes, what can I do, should I shamelessly beg my husband not to speak those irritable words to me? What right do I have?

”I know I have no right to speak with you here now, but please sincerely trust me, I’m really not that kind of person. What I want is just a peaceful and happy life. I never expected things to develop to this extent. This is not the life I wanted. Maybe you won’t choose to trust me, but I really hope you could trust me a bit more. I need your trust. Since we are married, shouldn’t there be more trust between husband and wife? Why doubt me like this? Doesn’t your heart truly hurt at all by doubting me like this?

Even if I’ve committed a huge mistake, after all, I’m your lawful wife, you should be a bit nicer to me. How can you say such ruthless words to me? Do so many years of marriage mean so little to you that they aren’t worth cherishing, aren’t worth mercy from you? You keep embarrassing me again and again; to what extent do you want to push me until you think this matter should end?”

”End? Are you kidding me? Do you think there’s any way to resolve this so thoroughly that it never happened? You don’t really understand my feelings; you don’t know how much pain is in my heart.

I really don’t know how to communicate with you. I’ve said all I should say and shouldn’t say, yet you, when will you open your heart to me? Is what I truly want so difficult for you to give? Although you’ve stayed by my side all these years, who knows which man your heart really thinks of. I don’t want to speak too harshly, nor do I want things to become so heartless. After all, we lived together for so many years, in this family you’ve had your troubles even without merit. Although all these years your food, clothing, housing, and transportation have been organized by me alone, you’ve also contributed a lot to this family. I appreciate everything you’ve done for this family, but you shouldn’t think this allows you to do whatever you want; casually hurting me. In your heart, am I just some man who can easily be hurt?”

”You clearly know I don’t mean that, all I want is fair treatment. Ask yourself sincerely, have you given me fair treatment these years? You used to ask me about everything, consult me, and then make decisions together. And now? Do you still consult me about everything like before and then decide? No, you wouldn’t do that, because your heart has long been tired of me. You feel being with me is just for the sake of giving my son a safe home, a reliable mom and dad. You just don’t want my son to lose either of us!

To be honest, I’m not afraid of being misunderstood by you. If you really don’t want to continue living with me, you can clearly tell me, no need to insult me indirectly. I can take my son and leave, never return here this lifetime. I don’t have to rely on you, I can still support myself and my son through my efforts. In essence, you’re just reluctant to part with your son and don’t know how to mediate this issue between us. That’s why you say such harsh words—to ensure I keep my son by your side and never let him leave this home forever, right?

Zhang Yichen, you’re really underestimating me, do you really think everyone in the world is so humble? I will strive to get what I want myself, without relying on any shortcuts. I will get everything I want step by step, solidly. In these years with you, I’ve had enough of your sarcastic remarks. I may be a civilian’s daughter, not comparable to those wealthy heirs, but I’m at peace with every action I take.

All I want is fair treatment, but you’ve never given me that over the years. Perhaps I didn’t know in your heart there’s supposed to be such fair treatment, but everything I acquired is from my own efforts, not relying on anyone. Everything I have is the reward I deserve because of my own hard work!”

You should understand my feelings, in your absence it’s like being in winter! Just the same!
