Chapter 2817

Silence blanketed the atmosphere.

Yannie bit her lip and stared at Thomas, her face pale as she asked tentatively, “What do you mean?
Are you talking about…what she did to you with Tina yesterday?

“Well, if you are…I think you should indeed get your revenge on her too.”

Yannie still had no idea how she would go about dealing with this.

She had lost sleep the night before, trying to figure out if she should tell Thomas the truth. Therefore,
she did not know that Thomas had already put two and two together, nor did she know that Luna had
already told him the truth.

At this thought, she paused for a moment and said, “Actually…”

“You don’t have to continue hiding anything from me; I know everything.” Thomas sighed and gently
clasped her hand. “After we were separated yesterday, I called Luna, and she told me the truth.”

He sighed and continued, “I know…I know that Denise and I did unspeakable things during the period
of time my memory blanked out. Is that right?”

Yannie bit her lip, staring at Thomas dazedly as tears slid down her cheeks.

She stared at him for a long time, unsure what to say.

She did not know how she was supposed to react to this, nor how she could express her feelings.

“I’m sorry you have to put up with this.” Thomas sighed when he met her gaze. “You knew full well what
had happened, and yet, you had to pretend that I had slept with you instead…



“I don’t know how you truly feel, but if I were in your shoes…”

He tightened his grip on her hand. “If I were you, I could never bring myself to do this, and even if I did,
I’d be in agony.

“I’m sorry you had to go through this, Yannie, sq…”

He paused for a moment. “If you want to leave me, I won’t stop you, and if you want to take Riley with
you, I’ll respect your decision, too.

“All I want is for you to promise me that we’ll still keep in touch, and I’ll still be able to see you and Riley
from time to time… That’s all I want.”

This was the only thing he could do to make it up to Yannie.

He was a loyal and devoted person, so he knew just how agonizing this event could be; he did not
have the right to ask Yannie to choose him when he had violated the loyalty of their relationship.

If staying by his side was too hard for her, he was willing to grant her and Riley freedom.

Yannie could not stop her tears from falling. It was as though his words had removed the stopper that
was blocking her tears from falling all this while.

She slumped in his arms, sobbing. “I don’t want to leave you, but every time I think about what
happened, every time I imagine you and Denise…”

She sniffed. “No matter how hard I try, I really cannot convince myself to accept what happened.

“I still love you, Thomas, and of course I love Riley, but I…I can’t force myself to accept something like
this… I don’t know what I should do… What do you think I should do?” Thomas narrowed his eyes at
this. “I’ll make Denise pay the price for this.”
