Female Novel
Chapter 1003
After dealing with my wound, he suddenly looked up. As | was absent-mindedly staring at him at the moment, | was caught.Our eyes met and | got lost in his deep, troubled gaze | felt my face heat up and my heart raced.
| coughed to cover the weirdness and my throat dry. "Well, thank you for your help tonight. | won't press charges against you forbreaking into my bedroom. You can go back now."
| was startled as he suddenly laughed and shook his head at me. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Arianna, why haven't |realised that you have such a mouth on you?"
He reached out and grabbed my chin. He was extremely close to me. Our breaths intertwined, and | moved back. | tried to calmmy racing heart and said, "| am not being difficult. | am telling the truth. Hendrix, I've told you that it won't work between us.When we finish this project, we are going back to Ucrebury to get the divorce certificate. This matter will be over."
| didn't dare look at him anymore. | lay back down and pulled the blanket over my head.
He remained sat by the side of the bed, not moving a single muscle. | waited a moment, and after not hearing anything, out ofcuriosity, peeped out.
| caught his gaze, dull and troubled. "Is it because of the child? Or is it because of your parents?"
My breath hitched at the sadness | glimpsed in his eyes. | bit my lip. "Isn't it obvious? It didn't happen to you personally. Youcouldn't possibly understand what | went through. In your eyes, we just lost a child, and | just had a spat with my parents. Canyou imagine how | felt? Did it not seem severe enough for you? Do you think that | should just ignore the past and be with you?You are selfish to think so, Hendrix!"
He stared back at me, unflappable in the face of my rage. After a long while, he said, "I never treated you as if these things neverhappened. You want freedom, a new life, | can let go and give you that, but Arianna, you now need someone by your side to takecare of you. And when that day comes where you have found a person that can take care of you, | will leave without anyhesitation, end this marriage and let you live your life."
| was bewildered. | didn't expect him to give in so easily. He had always been strong and overbearing. This suddenagreeableness was unexpected.
“Okay, I'll hold you to your words!" | said and tried to push away the faint stab of pain in my heart.It rained all night. The next day, the sun shone brightly and the fragrant smell of the earth drifted in the breeze.novelbin
