Marriage Without Love: Sir, Please Stop

Chapter 150

Catalina saw it clearly.

It was a ring.

It was the one engraved with her initials.

It was also the ring that Bennett had used to propose to Claire.

Catalina felt like her heart had been stabbed by something, and the pain was sudden and sharp.

She turned her face aside, forcing herself to ignore the emotions, and was about to step away.

"Pick up the ring!"

Bennett had already gotten out of bed and ordered her coldly behind her.

Catalina was a bit annoyed.

She was going to ignore him and open the door to go out.

"Catalina, I told you to pick up the ring!"

Bennett raised his voice behind her.

Catalina was so angry that she clenched her fists.

And then, she picked up the ring by her feet indignantly, turned around, and said angrily, "I've picked it

up. Are you satisfied with it? In your eyes, I'm just the most inferior follower of you, right?"

"Catalina, you really are the most stupid woman I've ever seen in this world!"

Enduring the pain on his back, Bennett approached her.

"Yes! I'm stupid. I'm silly!"

Catalina walked up quickly to stuff the ring into his hand and said, "Bennett, please stay far away from

women as stupid as me in the future, so as not to be affected."

If she wasn't stupid, how could she have liked this man for so many years?

And how could she have been hooked on his tenderness and fallen headlong into his trap of which she

could no longer get out?

Bennett didn't take the ring she had stuffed into his hand, but said with annoyance, "Take a good look

at the letters engraved on the ring."

Catalina was stunned for a moment.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she eventually followed his words and took a look at the ring.

In fact, she had long been curious about the other row of letters on this ring.

She was curious about which lucky girl's name was engraved behind that tiny 'heart'.

"CG..."

On the ring band, it was engraved with "BS 'heart' CG".

CG...

CG?

It wasn't the name of Claire or Hana, but the name of that with CG as its initials...

CG, Catalina Grant?

Catalina was shocked. With her eyes wide, she looked at Bennett in front of her with disbelief.

It...

It was impossible!

It must be that she thought too much.

It should just happen to be a coincidence.

Catalina was afraid that she was flattering herself.

Bennett stepped forward and took the ring back from her, "Are you trying to say that the letters just

happen to match your name?"

Catalina was silent.

She thought it was really just a coincidence. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Catalina's face darken, and she compressed her red lips without saying a word.

Bennett tossed the ring high in boredom and reached out to catch it, "But how can there be so many

coincidences in this world?"

Catalina was puzzled.

With her eyes widening, Catalina looked at him in amazement.

In her watery eyes, there was a gleam that even she didn't notice.

Bennett put the ring between his fingers and fiddled with it. Then, he said slowly, "The ring was

prepared a month before your eighteenth birthday... It's indeed a bit ugly and unfashionable, but it's

valuable because it is made by me. I would have liked to give this ring to you as a gift for your

eighteenth birthday..."

Bennett tossed the ring again, tilted his head, lowered his eyes to look at Catalina, and jeered,

"However, I learned that you and my brother's engagement news before I could give you the ring. The

girl I was about to pursue became my sister-in-law in an instant. Don't you think the situation is

dramatic and ridiculous?"

With her eyes widening, Catalina stared firmly at the man in front of her.

Her eyes were filled with tears, and the tears blurred her vision.

Her hands were clenched so tightly that her nails were almost embedded in her flesh, but she didn't

feel any pain at all.

Although Bennett was talking about the past in a very relaxed tone, Catalina could clearly perceive his

poignancy from his smiling eyes.

It was just like what he looked like every time she saw him in her childhood after she got engaged to

Warren.

He wanted to get close, but he couldn't.

He wanted to like her, but he couldn't...

Catalina bit her lower lip hard and opened her eyes wide to force herself not to weep.

Bennett stuffed the ring in his hand hard, looked at Catalina, and said, "I don't understand. At first, it

was me that you followed every day. But why were you with my brother in an instant?"

With Catalina's eyes flickering, tears streaming down from her eyes like pearls on a broken string.

Each teardrop was distinct.

It made people feel pity for her.

"That was just a misunderstanding... No, it was a mistake."

Catalina explained in tears.

For that inexplicable engagement, she was the one who felt most grieved.

Bennett strides forward, leaned over, held her face in both hands, and wiped away the tear on her

cheeks with his thumbs, "We will talk about this slowly in a while. Listen to me and let me finish my

words first."

"Okay..."

Catalina nodded with tears in her eyes. It was rare that she was so obedient.

With his eyes leveling with her, Bennett looked at her fixedly.

And then, he got up and said, "At first, I was used to being followed by such a person behind me. One

day, she suddenly took a break. She told me that she was going to go to her grandmother's home, and

would never come to help me with my homework. Although I didn't say anything at that time, I was in a

really bad mood, and I broke an antique vase of my dad when I came home. I was almost beaten to

death."

"Later, I really felt bored, so I came up with the idea of writing a diary for her! Though I had no idea

what exactly that girl was busy with all day long, I could let her know what I was busy with every day,

and I could also let her know how boring it was for me to live without her!"

"Every day, I either follow my dad to go fishing, or follow my mom to go to various banquets, or even

worse, I would go to play gooseberry for Darnell and watch how he flirts with girls. But usually, as long

as I go, his plan of flirting with girls will surely be failed. With me around, the girls won't like him."

When recalling these, Bennett even lifted his eyebrows at Catalina complacently.

Catalina couldn't help but interject and asked, "How come I didn't see you writing in your diary about

flirting with girls?"

"I wrote it."

"You didn't."

"I did, but I tore it up."

"Why did you tear it up?"

"I thought about it very seriously at that time, and I was afraid that some people would think that I was

too frivolous, so I tore it up."

Catalina lifted her eyebrows and then sniffled, being noncommittal.

From what he had said, it seemed that he was indeed quite frivolous.

Folding his arms across his chest, Bennett paced around Catalina and continued, "The reason why I

asked her to read me love letters every day was not because they were well-written, or I like to listen to

them. Honestly, I was tired of listening to them, and the flowery words were really disgusting..."

Catalina replied, "Then why do you still ask me to read them after you every day?"

Bennett tilted his head, looked at her, and said with a serious face, "I'm not asking you to read. I'm

asking you to learn!"

Catalina felt speechless.

"I didn't expect that you were so dumb that you didn't learn from them after all these years."

Catalina was still silent.

He was rather confident.

Wasn't he afraid that she would write to other men after learning it?

"Catalina..."

Bennett tilted his head and kept staring at her as if he wanted to see into her heart through her eyes, "

Don't you think you're the dumbest woman in the world? I made it so obvious, but you still couldn't get

it. Just as the saying goes, the whole world knows that I love you, but only you don't know."

Catalina also stared at him fixedly with her watery eyes.

Her eyes were moist, and the mist was thickened from one layer to the next, dimming her eyes and

making it almost impossible for her to see his face clearly.

Therefore...
