Chapter 659 Conspiracy
Anne stared at Dante in front of her for a long time.
She thought, “Did I drink too much tonight?
Was he dating me?”
Anne laughed at herself.
“It’s over between us. Dante, we’ve known each other for years, but why do you have to pretend? You should flirt with other girls with such tricks, and I’ve been immune to it long ago.”
If Dante had said that five years ago, shortly after they were married, maybe Anne would have been delighted in her mind.
Anne’s heart might even have skipped a beat.

After all, at that time, Anne was deeply in love with Dante, so of course she hoped that he would also fall for her.
But now Dante had broken Anne’s heart.
Anne’s love for Dante went unanswered, but Dante realized he had to get her back after he lost her.
If Dante truly cared about her, why would he do that earlier?
Anne had a hard time getting divorced and putting herself out of

her misery. Why would she go through it again when she knew it wasn’t a good thing?
The same man never crossed the same river twice.
“We’re just partners now.” Anne’s gaze fell out the window, suppressing the tears that inexplicably welled up in her eyes.
“We’ll just work together to raise Bella. Regarding the relationship, if you’re lonely and want to fall in love, go find another woman.”
Dante suddenly grabbed Anne’s hand and placed it over where his heart was.
“Would I find another woman? Do you think I would date a random woman?”
Dante was wearing only a thin shirt, and Anne could clearly feel the warmth of his body transferring to her cold fingers.
The view out the window flashed quickly in front of their eyes. The flickering light fell on the side of Dante’s face as he looked at Anne with seriousness in his eyes.
“Anne, I’m serious. We’ve already got a child, so please give me a chance to take care of you.”
Anne felt out of place when Dante suddenly looked at her with such deep affection.
She drew her hand back and said simply and directly, “I’ll say

Early the following day, Meryl woke up from her sleep.
Chandler had prepared breakfast for Meryl himself. He was worried about it getting cold, so he made a point of keeping it in an insulated container.
The milk was still warm, and Meryl could feel that the temperature was just right.
Feeling Chandler’s tenderness toward her, Meryl felt blessed in her mind.
Even though they had been married for a year, Meryl felt as if they had just met not long ago.
Chandler’s gentleness made Meryl feel so relieved. It was as if no matter what she did, she would have someone behind her to protect her steadily.
In particular, whenever Meryl leaned into Chandler’s arms, she would inexplicably get a bit flushed.
Meryl loved the faint smell of tobacco and the gentle way Chandler called her by name, which made her feel as if she had the world at her fingertips.
That might be what a heartbeat felt like.
Chapter 659 Conspiracy
Meryl had just finished breakfast when she got a call from Chandler.

“I’ve asked Walter to pick up Rachel from the hospital. Are you seriously sure you want her to stay with us? It’s not too late for you to regret it.”
Chandler and Meryl were enjoying being together with joy as a couple in this house, but if a woman with feelings for Chandler suddenly moved in…
It would be too weird.
Meryl said, “Just let her stay. I’ve been pregnant for so long that I can’t leave the house. If a blind woman stays with me, she can talk to me and relieve my boredom.”
It was mainly Meryl’s suspicion that Rachel’s eyes had long since recovered.
But she didn’t have any proof, so it was most appropriate for Rachel to stay with her.
If Rachel pretended to be blind, Meryl wouldn’t believe she could do it every day without revealing anything at all.
Chandler sighed, “Fine. I’ll do as you say then, but promise mé you’ll protect yourself and not fight with her.”
An hour later, Rachel showed up at the door.
A middle–aged woman came with her, who was a maid that

Chandler had arranged to take care of them.
As soon as Rachel entered, she pretended to feel around with her hands. “Am I at Chandler’s house yet, Susan?”
The maid, Susan, nodded. Thinking Rachel couldn’t see, she said, “We’re here.”
“Help me sit on the sofa.”
Susan nodded politely at Meryl as they passed by. “Mrs.
Aniston.”

Upon hearing this, Rachel was stunned and asked on purpose, “Is Meryl also home?”
“Yeah. This is my house, so isn’t it normal for me to be here?” Saying that, Meryl picked up an apple and ate it slowly. “Since you are also staying here, we’ll be good friends from now on.”
Rachel felt a wave of nausea.
She thought, “Friends?
How could Meryl and I ever be friends?”
Walter picked Rachel up early in the morning from the hospital and drove her back to Chandler’s house, and she was so excited
at that time.
As soon as Rachel heard it was Meryl’s idea on the road, she instantly thought it was a conspiracy.
Chapter 659 Conspiracy
If Rachel and Meryl didn’t get along, would Meryl be kind enough to let Rachel stay at her house?
Rachel had expected that Meryl was planning something evil.
So what was Meryl up to? Rachel had thought about it all the way through, but she didn’t figure it out.
This sense of being unknown made Rachel a bit frightened.

“You’ve acted very well. When you fell down the stairs the other day, you dropped your blood pack at my house.”
Hearing this, Rachel looked panicked.
“Don’t worry. Chandler probably doesn’t know yet.” Meryl patted Rachel on the shoulder. “Keep pretending.”
With that, Meryl left while eating her apple.
Rachel, however, was suspicious for a whole day because of Meryl’s words.
She thought, “Keep pretending?
Did Meryl know I was pretending to be blind? Was she just saying it casually and testing me?”
The feeling of apprehension that Rachel felt lasted until Chandler came home at night.

As soon as Chandler walked in the door, Meryl ran towards him.
Meryl jumped into Chandler’s embrace and wrapped her arms around his waist. “Honey, I miss you…”
Her voice sounded gentle as she looked up and actively kissed Chandler on the lips.
Chandler was stunned. Meryl was always shy, but she suddenly kissed him so actively that it aroused him pretty quickly.
He had totally forgotten that Rachel was still in the house. He just instinctively wrapped his arms around Meryl’s waist and said gently, “Meryl, your kisses are sweet.”
Chandler’s voice was low and husky as he swallowed softly. In an instant, his desire erupted, and he couldn’t help but press the back of Meryl’s head and kiss her deeper.
Meryl allowed Chandler to kiss her cheek and neck while secretly watching Rachel’s reaction.
Rachel was completely shocked that they were hugging each other in front of her.
The hands hidden in Rachel’s sleeves clenched into fists as she was so angry that she felt like she was going to explode.
But since Rachel was now playing blind, she had to pretend she didn’t know anything about it and stare ahead as if nothing had happened.

She had to pretend to be blind, so she had to hold back all her resentment and indignation.
But she was truly furious.
Was this why Meryl had let her stay here?
