Chapter 261

Evadne couldn’t deceive herself, even though saying those words sent a faint pain through her heart.

But she was used to this pain. In the three years she was married to Thaddeus, this painful sensation was more constant than his presence. She was used to it.

“Thaddeus, what’s the point in asking these questions now? Are you deluding yourself into thinking that I will stay and wait for you?”

Evadne squinted her beautiful eyes, fragile as crystal. It was a rare moment of softness, heartbreaking to witness. I loved you for thirteen years. How many sets of thirteen years does. one have in a lifetime? I can’t love anymore. I really can’t love anymore, and I’m scared of you.”

She thought, “Not just you, I’m scared of love itself.”

A sharp pain pierced Thaddeus’s chest. His lips turned pale and all his emotions stuck in his throat, leaving him struggling to breathe.

He was astounded to discover that he had hit rock bottom in his selfishness.

Their sham of a marriage had not only wasted her time but had nearly destroyed her.

“Evadne, are you being serious?” Thaddeus asked, unwilling to give up, knowing that he was inviting humiliation.

“Yes, when have I ever lied to you?”

Evadne chuckled lightly, her tone light as a breeze that made his heart race. “When I said I loved you, it was true. When I said I didn’t want a divorce, it was true. The tears I shed for you were real. So when I say I don’t love you anymore, it’s also true.”

“Evadne.”

Thaddeus’s eyes were bloodshot as he grasped her hand again. Even though she was burning up with fever, her hand was as cold as ice.

He couldn’t warm it up.

“Thaddeus, I appreciate you saving my life this time, you saved me once again, and I owe you one, In the future, as long as it’s not too much, I’ll repay this favor.” Evadne’s words were cold

and distant.

It was clear that after this, she didn’t want anything more to do with him.

Thaddeus wanted to say something else, but Evadne leaned against his shoulder and fell asleep.

Her delicate face was flushed red, her long eyelashes fluttering, and her forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat. She looked like a peaceful adorable little bunny in his arms.

Thaddeus’s heart pounded as he held her even closer.
