The Sweetest Trophy Wife by Beanie

Chapter 110 Let’s Break Up 

Not long after Gwyneth and Aubrey woke up the next morning, there was a knock at the door. 

Gwyneth had freshened up. She hurried over to the door when she heard the knock. She saw Henry and a woman standing by the door. It went without saying that this woman was the one who had hurt Aubrey. 

When Henry saw Gwyneth, he gave her a small nod. Then he grasped his girlfriend’s arm and entered the ward. 

Aubrey had just woken up, she was still drowsy due to the pain in her forehead. She was surprised to see Henry. She was about to express her annoyance when she saw the woman standing behind him, Aubrey’s expression darkened right away. 

“Aubrey…” 

Henry scowled and looked at his girlfriend. He urged, “We agreed that you’d say sorry to Aubrey because of yesterday’s incident.” 

Gwyneth closed the door, crossed her arms, leaned against the wall, and watched everything happen in silence. 

The woman still had a resentful look on her face and was reluctant to apologize. After she lowered her gaze and avoided eye contact, the woman finally spoke up slowly, “Miss Ann, I was acting impulsively yesterday, and I want to sincerely apologize to you.” 

Henry heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. He was flabbergasted when the conversation took an unexpected turn. 

“To be honest, any woman would get the wrong idea if a man and woman went out drinking and singing in a dim room.” 

The woman blinked her eyes, and her words carried a hidden meaning. It was clear that she was trying to suggest that she was not entirely to blame. 

Aubrey struggled to sit up as she fought off a wave of dizziness. She asked, “So, what are you implying?” 

Gwyneth was standing off to the side, motionless. She worried about Aubrey, but she was powerless to intervene because of Aubrey’s pride. 

The woman’s tone automatically rose, and she spoke louder in response to Aubrey’s retort. She said, “I didn’t mean anything. I admit that I hurt you, but this wouldn’t have happened if you had behaved better and not given me any reason to misunderstand.” 

She looked first at Aubrey and then at Gwyneth, oblivious to the dramatic change in Henry’s expression. Her face showed a growing sense of superiority. 

She concluded, “That’s all. Since you have been hospitalized, I’ll cover the hospital expenses. So let’s consider this matter resolved.” 

As she said this, she was about to take out her checkbook, but Henry grabbed her wrist. 

Aubrey’s indignant roar filled the room, “Aren’t you thinking too highly of yourself? Take your pathetic money and get out of here!” 

Henry quickly led his girlfriend out of the room. Quite a few people were walking by as the two stood in the hallway. Henry made an effort to keep his voice low, but the bulging veins on his forehead displayed his rage. 

Henry asked, “What are you doing?” 

“What am I doing? Henry, don’t you think that woman is playing the victim? I’ve already told her that I’d pay her to settle this. What more does she want? Does she want me to give you to her?” 

Hearing his girlfriend’s nonsense, Henry clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. Then he roared, “Fine.” 

That word left the woman stunned. She appeared to be perplexed by Henry’s reply. 

Henry continued, “If that’s what you think, then let’s break up. It’ll make it easier to clean up this mess.” 

The woman was shocked, she probably never expected Henry to not take her side and suggest ending the relationship. She took a deep breath and pointed at the ward. She questioned, “You want to break up with me? You want to break up with me because of that bitch?” 

Her eyes had turned red, and her emotions were out of control, she was on the verge of a mental breakdown. 

Henry simply narrowed his eyes and said nothing. 

“Gosh, this is hilarious! I should’ve hit that bitch harder yesterday!” 

The hospital room door started to open from the inside at this point. Gwyneth stood at the door and gave the hysterical woman a chilly stare. She said, “Excuse me, but this is a hospital. Please keep your voice down.” 

“What? That slut stole my man, but she’s afraid of someone linding out?” 

She could not break free because Henry had her wrist tightly in his grip. It caused her emotions to spiral out of control. 

Gwyneth cast a glance at Henry and said, “Well, since you insist, I don’t really have much of a choice. This matter could have been. resolved with a sincere apology, but I think we should take this to court now.”
