That evening, hearing the sound of the door opening, Bettie turned her head and took a look at Sabrina. She raised her
eyebrows in surprise. “You’re back? Didn’t Tyrone want you to stay longer with him?”
Sabrina, avoiding eye contact, tossed her bag onto the sofa and poured herself a glass of water. “Bettie, let’s not talk about him
anymore,” she requested calmly.
Bettie’s curiosity piqued as she sat up. “What happened?” she inquired.
“What did Tyrone do this time?”
Sitting beside Bettie, Sabrina wrapped her arms around Bettie, confiding the day’s painful revelations. “I went to Tyrone’s office
today and saw him with Galilea. He confessed he’s always loved Galilea. He only approached me because of a bet...”
Sabrina poured out the whole story to Bettie.
Sabrina would never have shared such a personal humiliation with anyone else.
It was a deep embarrassment. She had been fooled by Tyrone not once, but twice.
Tyrone was a man who had been unfaithful during their marriage. When she had finally begun to heal, she not only forgave him
but also yearned to reconcile.
However, it turned out that his feelings for her were nonexistent. Her hopes for reconciliation were nothing but wishful thinking.
The realization was mortifying, like knowingly being a second choice yet still clinging on.
Sabrina was too humiliated to admit this to anyone else.
As Sabrina spoke, Bettie’s anger flared. Clenching her teeth, Bettie exclaimed, “Damn it! Tyrone has crossed a line. How can he
be so heartless?
To gamble with someone’s feelings on a bet... What a cruel man!”
What made it worse was the timing. When Sabrina had just lost their child, spiraling into depression in the aftermath, Tyrone was
off making bets with Galilea, continuing to inflict pain on Sabrina.
Had Tyrone ever considered the consequences if Sabrina’s depression worsened?
Or did he not care at all about Sabrina’s well-being and life? Perhaps it was the latter. 1
Reflecting on the past, it seemed Tyrone had never truly respected or cared for Sabrina. He had manipulated situations to his
advantage, all for the sake of winning a bet. His actions were always calculated to achieve his goals, regardless of Sabrina’s
feelings.
Not long ago, Sabrina was kidnapped and trafficked. In a disturbing turn of events, it was revealed that Tyrone had allowed her
to be kidnapped. His intention was to make her feel immensely grateful to him for rescuing her.
If Sabrina hadn’t acted in self-defense, pushing Andrew off the bed which led to him hitting his head, Andrew might have already
raped her.
Tyrone’s actions were unfathomably cold-hearted. How could Sabrina possibly see through a vicious and sophisticated man like
him?
Bettie wrapped her arms around Sabrina, offering comfort, “Sabrina, you had seen the truth this time. A scumbag like him isn’t
worth your tears.”
“I know,” Sabrina replied, her voice tinged with sadness.
Sabrina was now aware that Tyrone was far from a good man, yet the pain and disappointment lingered.
However, Sabrina believed she would soon recover from this emotional blow.
She was no longer the person who saw Tyrone as her life’s goal and motivation. She was determined to thrive, even without
Tyrone in her life.
After ten days, Sabrina completed her final scene, marking the end of her shooting schedule.
She had previously informed the director that there was no need for a wrap party.
The crew members showed their appreciation by presenting her with flowers.
Sabrina posed a photograph with the director and other staff members, signifying the conclusion of her involvement with the
production.
However, Peter came when Sabrina shot the last scene.
Aware of the incident with Rowell, Peter was concerned that Sabrina might harbor reservations about his crew. He believed a
personal appearance would convey sincerity more effectively.
After extending his congratulations to Sabrina, Peter inquired about her future plans. “Miss Chaves, do you have any
commitments lined up next?” he asked.
