Chapter 48 You Won’t Be Happy Together

Madelline shook her head while biting her lip.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and she gazed at Nicholas, looking pitiful and helpless.

That expression could make any man feel sympathetic and guilty.

“I’m sorry, Madelline. It is my fault.”

“Since you know it’s your fault, why do you want to break up? I need to know the reason. I won’t accept this without explanation

Nicholas looked at her, feeling guilty in his heart.

Madeline wiped away her tears and grabbed Nicholas’ hand. “Please tell me the reason, okay? I have the right to know. It’s something I should know.”

“Do you really have to know it?”

“Yes, I have to.”

With a sigh, Nicholas reluctantly began, “Grandpa passed away. Though it was due to liver cancer, if it weren’t for my insistence on getting a divorce that day, defying him, he wouldn’t have left us.”

“Grandpa’s passing wasn’t your fault. You shouldn’t burden yourself with all the responsibility. It hurts me to see you like this. Your obligation lies with Nancy, but there’s no love between you guys. Forcing a marriage like this won’t result in happiness.”

“I’m the one you love and want to spend your life with. Nicholas, I’m begging you, let’s not part ways.”

Nicholas couldn’t hold back and reached out to completely wipe away the tears on her face. “Madelline, stop it. I’ve made up my mind.”

“You can leave the country, as before, so you never have to see me again. You can also stay here,

“Does it have to be like this?” Madelline desperately said, “No, I don’t want this.”

“I don’t want to leave you, and I don’t want to be just a stranger to you.”
