Chapter 350
“…” Peter was at a loss for words.
He looked extremely flustered.
“I must… I must have been possessed back then. Actually, I didn’t take the bet to heart.
“I didn’t mean to show them the photo. Someone snatched my phone that day. It was…”
Peter wanted to explain, but Marina interrupted him.
“Enough!” she shouted, her voice stern and cold.
Peter immediately paused.
He looked at Marina in a daze.
“Do you know how lame your excuse is? I’m not so easy to fool!
“You said that you didn’t take the bet to heart. In that case, why didn’t you stop your friends?
“You didn’t object when they were talking about it and even encouraged them.
“Obviously, you didn’t think it was a big deal.
“Also, you said that you didn’t offer to show them the photo. But what was your purpose in taking it?
“You should know well that information on cell phones and computers is easily leaked today.
“Even I can’t be 100% sure that the files on my phone and computer won’t be stolen one day.
“Why are you so confident that the information on your phone is 100% safe?
“Even if you couldn’t control yourself and no matter how much you loved her, you should think it over before you did such a thing. Didn’t you know that such a photo would be a time bomb for Jessica?
“If you were mature enough and really cared about her, you wouldn’t have taken such a photo.
“You leaked it because someone snatched your phone? Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?
“Since you can’t even protect a photo, how can you protect Jessica?
“Peter, I told you before that if you were not serious, you should stay away from her.
“But you proposed to her without even discussing it with me.
“Of course, your marriage is something between the two of you. Jessica was very happy, so I didn’t stop her.
“But I regret it now. I should have asked a few more questions. Then, such a thing wouldn’t have happened today.
“Jessica is such a good girl. You’re not worthy of her!”
When Peter heard this, the light in his eyes dimmed bit by bit.
He involuntarily staggered a few steps back.
His eyes turned red as if he would burst into cry at any moment.
Looking at him, Marina took a deep breath, but the look on her face remained stern.
“Peter, be an adult! You’ve caused so much trouble over the years. Aunt Daisy and I have been cleaning up the mess for you.
“You’re no longer a child. You have to take responsibility for what you do.
“I won’t help you this time!
“Don’t contact me again.”
After saying that, Marina turned and left.
Peter wanted to ask her to stay.
Chapter 350
However, the moment he opened his mouth, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He then collapsed to the ground.
“Peter!” Daisy and Peter’s father Flynn Moore immediately rushed over and held his arms to prevent him from falling.
“Mom, I was wrong. I was really wrong…”
At this moment, Peter cried like a helpless rhild.
Daisy wanted to curse him, but when she saw how sad he was, she swallowed the words that sprang to her lips.
Peter might be immature, but he was extremely stubborn.
And he was a person of great pride.
Every time he made mistakes before, his parents would beat him up together..
After the punishment, he could not even rise to his feet, but he never shed a tear.
Moreover, he even threatened that he would do it again.
But now, he was holding Daisy’s arm and admitting his mistake between sobs.
As his mother, Daisy had never seen him like this.
“Since you know you were wrong, go apologize to her,” Daisy said firmly.
“But… is she still willing to accept me?” Peter said uneasily.
“You should apologize because you did something wrong.
“You can’t expect her to accept you simply because you apologize to her.
“Peter, actually, it’s not all your fault. I should be blamed for not teaching you how to behave yourself.
“Ever since I gave birth to you, I’ve been too busy with work to teach you how to be a humble and polite person.
“As a result, you learned from those playboys and picked up on their bad habits.
“Peter, you can’t expect someone to love you the same way after you hurt her. If you don’t cherish those who love you, then it’s very likely that you won’t be able to get true love again.”
Daisy said with mixed feelings.
When Peter heard this, he felt like the hole in his heart grow even deeper.
Was his mother hinting that Jessica would not forgive him?
“Then what should I do now?” Peter asked as he grabbed Daisy’s sleeve tightly.
“To be honest, I don’t know what to do either. If I were Jessica, I might never want to see you again for the rest of my life after what happened.
“But you owe her an apology. You must apologize to her.
“As for what will happen after that, I can only wish you good luck,” Daisy muttered.
Peter’s heart/sank.
He suddenly recalled the way Jessica looked at him in the banquet hall.
“It was as if she was looking at a stranger who had nothing to do with her.
There was no love or hatred in her eyes.
“I’m going to… talk to her,” Peter said. He must apologize to Jessica personally.
He wanted to tell her that he didn’t do it on purpose.
Peter was in a hurry to leave, but he was too weak to stand up.
Daisy grabbed his arm.

“Even if you want to apologize, you should check things up before you go.
“Or she won’t believe you.”
Daisy was getting more and more helpless. She wondered how come her son was so silly
“Yes, I need to get to the bottom of it!” Peter wised up after Daisy’s reminder.
He had carefully arranged everything for the wedding.
So how were those videos released?”
When they made the bet, he did not see anything wrong.
After all, those people were all his close friends.
And they often joked about such things.
But he was indeed angered when someone snatched the phone from him and showed the photo to others.
He warned everyone present that day, saying that he would not let them off if they told anyone else about it.
