I think MY's really in love with ZC. His actions towards her prove it. He's just blinded by his promises to JB before and he's always thought that he could only love JB that's why he's hell-bent on giving her everything but couldn't help but give some of himself to ZC as well. I feel sorry for JB as well, as she originally wasn't vicious nor scheming, but her parents & her circumstances will ultimately force her to be one soon. Thanx for the update! Will continue to wait for more. 😊
ReplyDeleteI'm just so frustrated. So everyone will, eventually, know that the man's and ZC are having an affair? Of some sort and knowing these sorts of stories she's going to be tortures to hell and back and she's still going to stay because she loves him. Loves him bordering obsession This is driving me crazy
ReplyDeleteAh reading this is driving me crazy. Can he open his eyes and see
DeleteI don't have English as my native language and I usually read it through google translator. I don't know if it's intentional, but I can't translate the page from chapter 43, when I use the translator the letters change - kahdsdhfjksahdkfj - like this
ReplyDeleteYeah, sorry, there were some site aggregators basically ripping the content and reposting it. Would have been fine if they had credited the source or linked it to the original location, but they didn't, so there's scripting obfuscation that occurs.
