After having her blood drawn, Allana felt a little dizzy for a moment. As she walked out, leaning against the wall, she saw Sean standing by Aurora’s side, who had just been pushed out of the operating room.
He tightly held her hand, speaking softly to her, his expression gentle and his eyes affectionate.
From beginning to end, he never thought to ask about his wife’s well–being or if she was feeling uncomfortable, and naturally, he didn’t notice that Allana had already returned home alone.
After returning to the villa, she first went to the kitchen. With her already having anemia, she had drawn too much blood today, and her face still had a hint of paleness at this moment.
I wanted to cook a bowl of brown sugar water to relax, but as soon as I finished cooking and poured it into the bowl, I heard a loud bang because I didn’t have enough strength, and the bowl shattered into pieces.
In an instant, Aliana, who had remained unfazed by all the mockery and humiliation over the years, suddenly welled up with tears.
She murmured, “Aaron… without you by my side, I truly can’t do anything well.”
The spilled brown sugar water flowed to her feet. She lifted her head and looked at the puddle, which reminded her of the past.
Back then, she had the best lover.
Back then, her husband was still alive.
She used to feel cold, and every time during her menstrual period, she would experience unbearable abdominal pain. Aaron would always be particularly considerate towards her, making her a bowl of warm hot chocolate and blowing it to the perfect temperature before feeding it to her.
Sometimes she would act spoiled and he would embrace her in his arms, using his warm big hands to cover her stomach, saying that this way, she wouldn’t feel any pain.
When she was in a bad mood and found fault with everything, he would obediently sit beside her, letting her hit and scold him. In the end, he would even tenderly blow on her hand and ask if it hurt.
Aliana squatted down and picked up the fragments one by one. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her fingertips. She raised her hand and realized that a blood mark had been scratched by the fragments.
I don’t know if it was really painful or because of some other reason, tears just fell heavily and dropped on the ground.

“How could I not have noticed anything unusual? You loved me so much, but Sean was cold and indifferent, his heart never beat passionately for me.”
She picked up all the fragments and threw them into the trash can, then smiled and said, “But it’s okay, we will be able to see each other again soofi.”
The next day, Sean still did not come back. After she finished washing up, she went out to meet the
lawyer.
Sitting across the table, a prepared divorce settlement document had already been placed in front.
“Ms. Dunlap, as long as both parties of the couple signed this divorce settlement, after another
month of cooling–off period, they could get divorced.”
Upon hearing the lawyer’s words, Aliana thought about Sean, who hadn’t even returned home today, and asked, “Can I sign on his behalf?”
“Ms. Dunlap, this was absolutely not acceptable!” the lawyer quickly shook his head.
Seeing his resolute refusal, she quickly said, “My husband also wants a divorce, he just couldn’t come over. I signed on his behalf, if you don’t believe me, I can give him a call.”
She took out her phone and found Sean’s phone number, then dialed it.
After a long beep, the call was finally connected on the other side. Without even saying hello, Aliana
immediately started speaking,
“I have something to discuss with you…”
The words were not finished yet when they were interrupted from the other side. The voice was cold and emotionless, without a trace of sentiment. “I don’t have time, just do it directly, no need to
discuss.”
After speaking, another female voice came from the other side. Without any hesitation, she -recognized it as Aurora’s coquettish voice, “Sean, the medicine is so bitter… Can I not drink it?”
When the call was disconnected, she could still faintly hear Sean’s response, a tenderness that he had never shown to her before, “No, how can you get better quickly if you don’t take the medicine?”
Aliana looked at the lawyer.
Upon hearing this, the lawyer detected the other party’s indifferent attitude and finally compromised, nodding in agreement to sign on behalf.
Having obtained permission, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief and signed Sean’s name on the

divorce settlement document.
After leaving the law firm, she lightly tapped her fingers and booked a flight ticket to Hazelville one
month later.
When Sean returned home, it had already been a week.
He returned to the room, covered in dust and with a chill in his body, it was already midnight. Aliana was sleeping in a daze and didn’t have any reaction to his return.
It was not until the bed beside her sank slightly and the whole person was naturally embraced by the man that she finally woke up and pushed him away, moving to the other side.
Scan,
who was taken aback by the first rejection, furrowed his brows the next second and said, “Don’t you need to listen to my heartbeat every night to fall asleep?”
Married for three years, Aliana rarely made requests to Sean. However, even so, the only thing he agreed to was this one thing. At that time, they had just gotten married, and besides a marriage certificate, he hadn’t given her anything.
But she didn’t care at all, just gently leaning against his chest afterwards, with her ear close to his
heart.
He asked her why she liked leaning on herself like this.
And she looked up, her eyes shining under the moonlight, filled with tenderness and love.
“Because I enjoyed listening to your heartbeat, can I continue to fall asleep while listening to your heartbeat in the future?”
Perhaps it was because of the intense love in her eyes when she made this request that he couldn’t refuse, and he unexpectedly agreed to it.
And this habit has continued to this day, whenever he is around, she will definitely conscientiously nestle into his arms, with her head close to the position of his heart.
But at this moment, she hesitated for a moment and shook her head, saying, “No need.”
