Chapter 557

I let go of my bite and looked at him. His eyes were filled with sorrows and pain, but there was

nothing in my heart apart from deathly stillness. There was a huge problem between us. Not only

did he not notice i t but he was also thinking that I was messing with him.

I was too exhausted and wanted to get rid of this marriage but could not do so no matter how hard I

tried. The intense sense of helplessness put me in despair.

"We're a married couple.” Theo kissed my forehead." We’re the closest people in the world, so we

shouldn't b e behaving like this right now."

I pursed my lips, not saying a word.

"Wanda, be a good girl and come back home, okay?"

I tilted my head to the other side, neither agreeing nor refusing.

I knew that there was no use refusing, but I refused to agree regardless.

As expected, Theo did not wait for my reply and thought that I had tacitly assented.

He got up to cover me with a blanket. "I’ll go and make a phone call. Be good and wait for me to

come back."

Not long after he left, Jerome gave me a call. I answered it and said wearily, "I'm at Regal Villa and

won't be going home tonight."

Jerome fell silent for a moment and said, "Have some rest, then. Remember to give me a call if you

need help."

"Will do."

Theo came back after making a phone call. I sat up from the bed and looked blankly at him. "I hope

you’ll take my feelings into consideration, Theo. I’m really tired right now. I have no intention of

maintaining this marriage anymore."

When I noticed frost creeping up his face, I felt bitterness in my heart. "I love you and care for you,

but I don't wish to continue this relationship with you. Marrying you is like being caught in a mud

puddle. I can only see myself struggling in pain, sinking deeper and deeper as the pain intensifies.

Can we just let each other go?"

Theo's body swayed a little, and his complexion went pale.

I did not want to listen to what he had to say and continued, "You're the man of many women's

dreams. You're so much more outstanding than most men and I don’t deserve to marry you. I’ve

always placed myself in a very humble position, choosing to endure it no matter how you and Cindy

tortured me back then. I even told myself to do better so you would at least be slightly pleased with

me and see the good in me. I believed we would be able to live together as a loving couple as time

passed, but it's been three years and that day has never come.

"The heavens love playing jokes on me. When I was tired and thinking of giving up, your attitude

toward m e suddenly changed. However, some things can't be fixed anymore. Three years is

enough to obliterate all the passion and beautiful fantasies I had about marriage."

My eyes turned pink when I recalled the past. "Theo, I admit that I still love you. How awesome

would it be if we could see this marriage through till the very end like normal couples, but you won’t

let that happen. What you’re doing now is suffocating me. When I think of you, all I want to do is run

away. After all this time, the love I have for you can no longer keep this broken marriage going."

After I said that, Theo and I fell into a long silence.

I was uncertain how much time had passed when Theo walked over and said, "Tell me what I did

wrong and I’ll change. As long as you’re willing to stay, then I'm willing to change everything that

you're not happy about. I'll change until you're satisfied."

There was suddenly a void in my eyes.

What exactly did Theo do wrong?

In fact, those were all very trivial matters that were not worth divorcing over even when combined.

However, I had no idea how to solve the conflict between us, so I instinctively wanted to escape.

I knew that I was more sensitive than normal people, s o even though I knew full well that

something was not worth taking to heart, I would still do so either way and inflict upon myself many

negative emotions.
