A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

“Don’t do it!” Serenity panicked as she saw Toby dialing Theodore’s number without blinking. She knocked his phone off his hand, then picked it up and quickly hung up the call. When she looked up, all she saw was the lucidity and sarcasm in Toby’s eyes.

Serenity’s mind went blank. “Toby…” Even if Toby didn’t say anything, she could imagine how ridiculous she looked—like a complete clown.

“I-I’m actually doing this for your own good. You’ve come this far and achieved so much; you can’t give up now. Toby, you’re so talented! You can’t ruin yourself because of me!” Serenity hurriedly tried to explain. “You know that I don’t mind suffering. But I can’t let you suffer.”

“Heh!” Toby snatched his phone back from her fingers, his sarcasm even more pronounced. If Amelie said those words, he would never doubt her. But Serenity… Toby even felt like comparing Serenity to Amelie was an insult to Amelie.

“I actually divorced him already, really!” Serenity desperately tried to get his trust back, moving closer to him.

Toby still only smiled. “What a pity.”

“What do you mean?” Serenity looked at him.

Toby stretched his eyebrows, but his eyes were not showing any anger. He looked straight ahead, thinking about something. In any case, it had nothing to do with her. As a woman, she could feel that he was thinking about another woman.

“Toby…” She called out to him again, unwilling to give up. Toby finally looked at her, his gaze as warm as before. This gave Serenity a glimmer of hope. “I know you’re regretting our relationship. As long as we’re patient, it’s still possible.”

“I’m not regretting our relationship. I regret that when I was willing to give up everything, there wasn’t a foolish girl willing to be with me unconditionally.” He was thinking of Amelie. If he had met her earlier, the outcome might have been different.

Serenity’s face turned pale. “I have my reasons; I’m doing this for you—”

“You don’t need to tell anyone about your divorce or clarify our relationship.” Toby didn’t want to listen to this boring topic anymore and interrupted her.
