davy crockett short story

Betsy Russell insisted on marrying this Jared Hughes even at the risk of being abandoned by her family and relatives. She thought that after three years, she would be able to melt the ice in his heart. However, when this man detained her and forced her to kneel in front of his family to confess to mistakes she never committed, Betsy Russell realized that this man's heart was made of ice. When she fell into the water alongside her elder sister-in-law, Chloe Lindsey, Jared jumped down at the first moment and saved Chloe Lindsey. He carried Chloe Lindsey to the hospital while Betsy, who did not know how to swim, could only wait for the guard to save her. The child inChloe Lindsey's stomach could not survive the ordeal and she had a miscarriage. Jared Hughes brought Betsy to his family without any explanation and asked her to kneel and admit her mistake. His eyes under his sharp brows were piercingly ruthless as if he stabbed a knife into Betsy's heart. "After Big Brother passed away, he only left a child behind. You shouldn't have killed this child!" "I didn't do it. She jumped down herself!" "What are you waiting for? Kneel and admit your mistake!" Three years into her marriage, Betsy was convinced that even a dog was more valuable than her in the Hughes family, what more Chloe Lindsey who Jared Hughes really loved. Right before one of her kneecaps was about to land on the ground, Jared Hughes still thought that Betsy would admit to her mistake. Little did he expect Betsy to slowly straighten up and said, "Jared Hughes, let's divorce. I'll just pretend that I fed the past three years to the dogs. Nobody is worth wasting my youth on after this!" Therefore, Betsy decided to return home and accept her inheritance that was worth hundreds of billions. A glorious life awaited!
