Chapter 15
I settled Colin in the hospital at the foot of the mountain.
He dug in the heavy rain for a whole day and night. When he was taken to the hospital, he was already delirious, just kept calling my name.
“Naomi… I’m sorry…”
I turned around to leave, but he grabbed my wrist.
I couldn’t help it, I just had to sit down.
The doctor kindly arranged another bed for me to rest.
The next day, I woke up and saw Colin sitting at the end of the bed, staring at me without blinking.
“Naomi, you woke up…”
I slowly sat up and calmly looked at him.
“Come on, what do you want to do?”
Colin was taken aback, he had a lot to say, but seeing me so indifferent, he didn’t know where to start.
Colin’s eyes were tinged with a hint of red, looking a bit downcast.
“Naomi, I’m sorry… I really know I was wrong.”
“I shouldn’t have lied to you, I did marry you for Selena back then.”
“But after you left, I realized I had already fallen in love with you!”
“I now realize that I hurt you for Selena, I wish I could kill myself, I’m

sorry, Naomi come back with me! Let’s start over, I will make it up to you, I will love you for the rest of my life.”
Colin’s voice cracked with emotion as he made a heartfelt confession that touched everyone.
But I just calmly looked at him, without any expression.
I’m about to die now, what’s the point of love, honesty, and deceit?
“The past is the past, no need to talk about it anymore.”
“Colin, let’s call it quits here, stop bothering me.”
I wanted to get up and leave.
Colin didn’t care anymore, he just knelt down.
“Naomi! Please, don’t go!”
“I really know I was wrong! I’ve already aborted Selena’s child, I know everything she did, I never wanted to hurt you!”
“I just wanted Selena to have the baby for you to raise, and then cut off all contact with her completely, so we can be a happy family of three in peace.”
“I now realize I was wrong, we didn’t need that child at all, I have you and that’s enough! Selena got what she deserved, if you’re still not satisfied, you can come back with me and take matters into your own hands!”
“Naomi… Don’t treat me like this. You can hit me or scold me, just please don’t leave me, okay?”
I shook my head.
“Not good.”
Chapter 15
“No one in this world can’t live without someone. What you want to do is your business, it’s none of my concern. If you still miss the past a little bit, then please don’t come looking for me again in the future. Give me some peace and quiet.”
“No! Naomi, don’t treat me like this!”
Colin seemed like he couldn’t take it anymore. He suddenly grabbed my sleeve and eagerly pulled out a red cloth bag from his pocket.
“Naomi, look! I found your safety amulet. I know I messed up before, but please give me another chance. One last chance.”
Colin was crying his eyes out, his voice hoarse and broken.
I just gently pulled the hem of my clothes and walked away without looking back.
“No chance anymore, never will be.”
