Chapter 1241


    The next second, she heard Oliver say, “It’s fine. I don’t regret marrying Fanny.”


    She was overjoyed when she heard that.


    She experienced happiness like never before, as if fireworks were exploding in


    her heart. There was an itch in her throat, almost driving her to push that door


    open and calling Oliver her honey sweetly.


    However, Master Channing’s next words stopped her hand, which was almost


    reaching the door handle.

    “Do you love her? Do you have no regret because you’re making amends on my


    behalf, or because you really love her?’


    Making amends for Master Channing?


    What wrong did Master Channing do to her?


    Over the years, it was all thanks to the Channings for taking her in that Fanny


    was able to grow up peacefully and healthily.


    Although she wasn’t their darling, the Channings’ influence and Oliver’s


    presence gave her an admirable life during her youth. Later when she joined the


    entertainment industry, despite having to walk on eggshells at home with the


    Channings, she never suffered at work because Oliver was willing to invest in


    her career.


    She had always felt grateful for the Channings and Oliver.


    “What’s the big deal whether I love her or not? Marriage is all about getting used


    to each other. I’m used to Fanny being around me since we were kids, and


    that’s the same now. I realized that as long as I’ve gotten used to it, this


    marriage can go on. Not only can it solve your problem, but it can also help me


    maintain the image of having a happy marriage.


    That’s pretty good.”


    The fireworks in Fanny’s throat exploded for good.


    Yet, she didn’t feel an ounce of joy at all.


    All that was left was the bitter taste of sorrow that spread from her throat to her


    chest, almost breaking her heart into many tiny pieces.

    Her heart was bleeding.


    the courage to push the door open.


    It was only until the secretary came over and saw her standing there, and called


    her Mrs. Channing, did the two men inside finally notice her presence. Oliver


    stood up, and opened the door to his office.


    His height advantage allowed him to hide the sh of panic in his eyes. His


    experience managing thepany over the past four years had trained him in


    hiding his feelings well.


    He found that it was easy for others to see through him if he didn’t hide his


    emotions. When that happened, he often found himself at a disadvantage in


    negotiations and work.


    Thus, he had to make himself look solemn and severe.


    The man who used to feel as warm as a summer breeze, felt more and more


    distant as the burden on his shoulders grew heavier and heavier.


    “Have you been here for a while?”


    He certainly knew what Fanny had overheard standing at the door just now, but


    he didn’t exin himself.


    That clearly showed how little he cared for her.


    Just like he said, Fanny was just someone he had gotten used to.


    He hadn’t given up on Diana and fallen in love with Fanny over the past year, as


    Fanny had thought.


    While it might be true that Oliver no longer loved Diana, it was also true that he


    still didn’t Move her.


    Facing the truth hurt so much.


    Fanny looked down and nodded, not daring to look at him.


    She used to act in so many movies, so shedding tears was as easy as pie for


    her. She could always sob sorrowfully whenever her character was sad. Viewers


    oftenmented that her crying scenes were very convincing.


    But at this moment, she couldn’t bring herself to cry despite being overwhelmed


    with sorrow. She couldn’t cry, and she couldn’tugh either.


    Just as Oliver said, perhaps she had gotten used to it too.


    She had gotten used to him hurting her in their rtionship.


    At the end of the day, she was the one who asked for this marriage.


    When Oliver just started taking over the Channing family business, many of his


    rtives were upset about it. Many thought that Simon could still take over the


    business, even if Oliver didn’t.


    No one expected Simon to turn out to be a son of the Fulcher family.


    The moment news broke out, everyone in the Channing family who were


    previously suppressed suddenly became emboldened to fight for a piece of the


    pie.


    Oliver found himself in the midst of the storm, having to manage the Channing


    business while guarding himself against the schemes of his own family


    members.


    Yet, he still failed.
