Chapter 201 He Could Change the Situation
The hospital.
Martha's cheeks were blushing because of anger, and her hair was messy. Biting her lip, she was
unwilling to compromise.
In the stalemate, Stefan had to yield as he had no right to say no in the current situation.
He softened his tone while gazing at her solemnly. "Don't leave me, Martha."
"Don't you think it's too late to say such things? If you are a man, you should let it go. You were
determined in the past and should keep being decisive now."
"I can't..."
He had regretted his stupid decision before, which made him suffer deeply.
For him, letting go of her wouldn't delight him but make him suffer more.
"I've owed you and Jimmy too much. Please give me a chance to make it up to you. Let's not divorce,
OK?" Stefan said, lowering his voice.
He had never been so patient and humble in Martha's presence.
He truly cared about Martha and Jimmy. It was difficult for him to imagine how she had lived while
taking care of their severely ill son in the past few years.
If he had found Jimmy earlier, the boy would have received some other treatments, unlike this moment
when they could only resort to Rhys.
Martha's eyes reddened. She raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear, peering out of the
window. "Even if you regret it, nothing will change. We cannot go back, Stefan," she answered
determinedly.
"If it's because of Jimmy, I can pretend to divorce. I'll deal with the paperwork. After the bone marrow
transplant, we can... No worries. I'll get everything done."
This was the first time Stefan had been so stubborn. He insisted on not divorcing, and Martha could tellnovelbin
it.
However, she only felt irritable as she didn't want to be tangled with him any longer. She was too
exhausted due to Jimmy's sickness and unwilling to get involved in the battle between Stefan and
Rhys.
"Enough. Do you always think others are fools? I won't risk Jimmy's life to agree with you."
Martha's patience had run out. She had calmed down earlier but almost lost control again.
Stefan couldn't utter a word to retort. Lowering his eyes, he looked disappointed.
All his life, only Martha could have sent him into frustration.
The room became pin-drop silent for a while. They were in a stalemate and didn't speak for a bit.
Finally, Stefan broke the silence. "It's getting late. Let me drive you home. Your wound needs to avoid
water in the following few days."
Then he scooped her up again.
Martha could tell he said so to avoid talking about Rhys again.
However, he no longer had much time to escape this issue.
Tonight was his last time.
Martha didn't struggle with an impassive look.
The argument earlier had exhausted her.
She was too exhausted as she had never expected Stefan to be that stubborn.
On the way back home, they were in weird silence.
Martha peered out the window without sparing a glance at Stefan in the driver's seat.
Stefan eyed her from the corner of his eyes occasionally. Seeing her ignore him, he smiled bitterly.
Martha was like a touchy hedgehog. She had given up on him, so she always fought against him.
Stefan was tongue-tied in her presence.
If he said something, he was afraid she would detest him more.
Yet he was reluctant to lose her.
Inwardly, he told himself that he could still change the situation.
