After Nicolette finished, she quietly waited for Brandon's answer,

Ten seconds passed and still, she didn't hear Brandon's reply. But she knew Brandon was on the other end of the call and hadn't hung up. She thought, 'So he couldn't accept it?'

"It doesn't matter," Brandon interrupted, "I will always live with my family. They will take care of me and accompany me. Even if you are not by my side, I will not be lonely, much less feel unloved.

"I also spend a lot of time on my career. I don't have enough time to accompany my wife and take care of her. If I can't do it,
