Chapter 2064 Theo’s entire body stiffened when he heard this.
He never thought Roanne would ask this of him.
Theo knew from the start that he was the reason Roanne had come to a rude awakening and refused to continue being under Charlotte’s control.
He was Roanne’s ideal type, so she had fallen in love with the idea of starting a new life with him away from Charlotte, which was why she had been secretly helping Luna and Bonnie.
As for what happened that day…
Roanne had known of Theo’s intentions to plant the hidden camera and microphone, but not only did she not get upset at him, but she even feigned innocence and kept deliberately leading Charlotte to admit the crimes she had committed.
Even though one would say that Roanne had suddenly developed a conscience, Theo knew, for a fact, that she had done this for him.
However, despite knowing this, he had never reciprocated Roanne’s love.
At this moment, as he held a limp and almost lifeless Roanne in his arms, Theo could not help feeling that he was the world’s biggest jerk.
Despite knowing that Roanne was in love with him, he had never rejected her advances before, even though he did not like her back and instead used her for the sake of helping his friends…
“‘Theo…” Roanne curled her lips into a bitter smile as she stared into his eyes. “Are you… unwilling to do that?”
She reached out a bloodstained hand to gently caress Theo’s cheek and said, “If you don’t want to… I understand.
“I know that you’ve never liked me back at all, and all of this was just me indulging myself…”
She closed her eyes.
Roanne did not regret what she had done today, and even if it were not for Theo, she would have chosen to betray Charlotte anyway because…
She curled her lips into a smile, and the image of Bonnie’s face appeared in her mind.
Roanne still remembered that every time she asked about Theo in front of Bonnie, Bonnie would smile and tell her that Theo was trying to get to know her better and was drawing a portrait of her.
Bonnie was the only person she had met who truly understood her love for Theo and supported her.
The kindness that Bonnie showed her was different from Charlotte’s.
Charlotte was an incredibly selfish and calculating person, and she would exaggerate every last drop of kindness she ever displayed toward Roanne, making it sound as though she had saved her life and forcing her to repay her debt.
However, Bonnie and Theo were different.
The kindness and warmth they had shown her did not ask for anything in return.
As soon as she thought of this, Roanne let out a bitter smile. “I guess I just found out too late…
If she had known earlier that a man as wonderful as Theo existed…
If she had known earlier what a kind and gentle person Bonnie was..
She would not have taken so long to expose Charlotte’s true colors.
In the distance, a grotesque sneer crept across Charlotte’s face as she was pressed down on the ground by Joshua’s men. “So this is the precious little boyfriend you betrayed me for!
“How shameless are you, Roanne? How dare you even offer yourself so willingly despite knowing he doesn’t like you back? You betrayed me, and now my life is ruined! If I go to hell, I’m bringing you down with me, you bitch!”
Even with her face pressed against the ground, Charlotte still cursed, “I had been right about you all along! You’re just a bitch, a dumb, shameless bitch! Even a dog has more dignity than
you!”
Roanne’s eyelids flew open when she heard this.
She coughed out a mouthful of blood and replied, “Why don’t you look at yourself first in the mirror, Charlotte?
“You call me a bitch just because I fell in love with a man who doesn’t love me back, but what about you? You knew fully well that the girl Jim promised to marry wasn’t you and that you weren’t the person he had fallen in love with, yet you still lied to yourself, thinking that you and Jim belong together!
“Six years ago, you and Heather fell out, and you tried to set fire to kill Bonnie, worried that Heather would expose the truth of Bonnie being Harvey’s birth mother.”
