Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 831

Evelyn lay sprawled on the floor, stripped of all dignity. She only lifted herself off the ground after hearing the sound of Daniel and his men's footsteps fade away. Her face was so swollen she could barely see, forcing her to fumble around to sit up.

Her heart boiled with anger at Lucas. She had devoted herself to him for so many years, but what had she gotten in return? "Oh, Lucas. I've loved you for over 30 years, and this is how you treat me?" she fumed inwardly.

Daniel had ordered Lucas to slap her—a humiliation of the highest degree—and Lucas didn't hesitate to carry it out. It was evident that, when it came to his own interests, Lucas wouldn't think twice about discarding her. His priorities were always about what benefited him most.

All these years, she had slaved away for him, and this was what she got in return? At that moment, she came to a painful realization. To men like Lucas, profit was everything. They didn't care about others' feelings.

Over the years, she had loved Lucas with everything she had, even going so far as to steal money from the Hamilton family to help him start his business. And what had it all amounted to?

It took all this time for her to see the truth. Daniel, who had always been cold to her, was actually much better than Lucas. At least he had thought of giving her a way out.

Lucas, on the other hand, never once thought about her—especially not when Daniel laid out his conditions. This was the man she had loved for over three decades. Should she fault Lucas for being heartless, or should she blame herself for being blind to his true nature?

Evelyn lay on the cold carpet, gingerly touching her swollen face that had puffed up so much she couldn't open her eyes. Suddenly, an overwhelming sadness overtook her, and she broke into gut-wrenching sobs. No one knew how empty her heart felt at that moment.

She cried for about an hour before pulling herself up. Groping around, she found her clothes and slowly put them on. Then, steadying herself against the wall, she walked out of the hotel and disappeared into the streets.
