Bab 205: Shocking

Anne's cold hand gently touched Aaron's hand which was on his cheek. She lowered Aaron's hand from his face and gripped it tightly.

"What I said yesterday wasn't a lie, Aaron. I was not lying or making up a false excuse to reject you. I got married when I was very young, my marriage only lasted one year because my ex-husband had an affair with a woman I saved from the street. They did not only have an affair behind my back, but they openly showed their affection in front of me. Even all the servants in my ex-husband's house thought of me as another woman, not as the Madam they should respect.
