Chapter 15

Elizabeth looked at Alexander in confusion. She hadn’t heard about Alexander being married.

“Mr. Sterling, we’ve been living abroad for many years, and we’re not aware of the news in the United States. What’s the connection between my daughter and you?”

Alexander’s expression remained indifferent as he spoke, “Even if there was a connection, it’s in the past. I’m currently processing a divorce.”

Aveline hadn’t expected that the sincere feelings she had held for years would end up as mere words on his lips.

Was she angry? Of course, she was. But more than anger, she felt a chilling sense of realization that she had chosen a monster to cherish.

Aveline took out a ring box and forcefully threw it at Alexander. “To hell with you, you scumbag! The biggest regret of my life is being associated with you. We’ll meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o’clock tomorrow, and anyone who doesn’t show up is a coward!”

The box hit his forehead, making it red, and the ring scattered at his feet. This time, Aveline didn’t even spare a glance at the ring. She stepped on it and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.

In these last few years, Aveline’s life had been filled with too many hardships. This incident was like the final straw on a camel’s back. She didn’t get far before fainting by the roadside.

She gazed at the continuous drizzle from the sky, feeling as though the world was being hostile to her.

She thought that maybe dying like this wouldn’t be so bad.

In this calculating world, there wasn’t much left for her to hold onto.

When she woke up again, she found herself in an unfamiliar room. Warm yellow light banished the darkness, and the room’s heating felt like spring.

“You’re awake.”

Aveline opened her eyes and saw Ryan’s gentle eyes. “Ryan, did you save me?”

“I found you collapsed by the roadside when I returned home from work. So, I brought you here. Since your clothes were soaked, I had my maid get you some dry ones.”
