Sasha fell into a vicious cycle of despair when she thought things would never work out between them
anymore.
The heartbroken Sasha gasped out her suggestion, âSebastian, letâs file for divorce.â
The eyes of the man opposite her widened in disbelief when he heard her bringing up the suggestion to
sever ties with one another.
Sitting opposite her, his fastened grips started shivering under the dining table. He felt awful as if an
important part of his had been pulled apart against his will.
âI think you have spent a night in bed with her just to get me back for lying at you. Itâs nothing more than
revenge, isnât it? Well, itâs a huge success because Iâm giving up on you for good.â
Sasha exposed Sebastianâs intention in a calm and collected tone as she couldnât care less about filing
for divorce with the man anymore.
Sebastianâs angst was written all over his face. Staring at her in the eyes, he repeated his question,
âHave you made up your mind?â
âWe can proceed with the procedures immediately if youâre ready. Speaking of which, I hope you wonât
stop Matteo and Vivian from leaving with me.â
She carried on with the conversation and brought up her condition.
After much considerations, Sebastian brought himself up and marched in the direction of his bag. When
he returned, he took her by surprise with the divorce settlement agreement.
Sasha responded with a self-deprecating smirk and thought it was time for her to stop being hopeful.
Without a second thought, she officiated the agreement and brought herself away from the dining room.
All of a sudden, the man behind him asked, âI donât think itâs a great idea for our children to live apart
from their siblings just because of our divorce. Shall we grant them the freedom to visit either of us
whenever they wish to for the sake of their growth?â
Sasha brought herself to a halt since she wasnât sure if it was a great idea. She just couldnât process the
things the man had brought up out of the blue after going through a major heartbreak a few seconds ago.
âI guess itâs fine?â
She staggered her way out of the house seconds after she finished her sentence.
Instead of boarding the car, she braced herself through the heavy downpour and hailed a cab to a certain
somewhere.
The housemaid asked, âMr. Hayes, are you sure itâs fine to let Mrs. Hayes wander off alone in the middle
of the night?â
Sebastian remained silent and crumpled the agreement, smashing the dishes on the table with all his
might to take out the emotions he had been suppressing.
Someday, Iâll make the Jadesons bear the consequences of their actions!
The dejected Sasha was completely drenched by the time she showed up at the hospital. Ironically, she
had shown up at the hotel for Sebastian in a similar manner the last night.
Nonetheless, she thought she might stand a chance to reignite the passion she had for him, but after
spending another day apart from the man, she knew it was impossible.
âDr. Nancy? W-Whatâs wrong with you? Why are you completely drenched? You need to get yourself
changed! Otherwise, youâre going to catch a cold! You canât afford to fall sick when your father needs
you!â
The nurse was astonished by Sashaâs presence. She returned to Sashaâs side with a towel, but Sasha
remained silent and strode in the direction of her fatherâs ward.
Thereâs no way Iâm allowing myself to catch a cold because my father needs me more than ever! I ran
away from my parents when I was eighteen! Thereâs no way Iâm running away from them again!
âDad, you donât have to worry because Iâll do everything just to save you even if it comes at the cost of
my life!â
Staring at her unconscious father on the bed, the weeping woman grasped her fatherâs hand and placed
it on her cheeks.
âYouâre finally back! Have you found the antidote for your father?â
Out of nowhere, Sashaâs uncle, Jackson, showed up in the ward with a vacuum flask. Sashaâs aunt,
Sharon, was right behind her uncle.
Seconds after Sasha snapped out of bewilderment, she wiped her tears dry and asked, âUncle Jackson,
what brings you and Aunt Sharon here today?â
âWhy donât you tell me where have you been throughout the day? The hospital told us you were nowhere
to be seen after getting yourself involved in a fight with another woman!â
The irritated Jackson glared at his niece in the eyes and confronted her in return.
Sasha was astonished when she recalled she had spent the day doing nothing and left her father alone
in the ward.
