Nigel said calmly, "Anne, I'm not the one asking you to leave you were the one who said you wanted to go."

Anne hesitated. "I..."

She hadn't really meant to leave!

Nigel continued, "Anne, I've always said the Hamptons is your family. But if staying here has become a burden to you, then it's better if you move out. I've already transferred a villa to your name. Everything's settled there you can move in anytime."

Anne's heart was gripped by despair. "Nigel, do you really want me to go?"

Nigel replied, "Anne, you've lived here for years. At first, I didn't think much of it. But Fiona is clearly bothered by it. We've been apart for so long—I don't want to argue with her over this anymore. So I gave it some thought, and having you move out is the best solution."

Anne looked stunned. "So, in the end, you're doing this for Fiona? Your heart's been with her all along, hasn't it?"

Nigel stated plainly, "Anne, Fiona is my wife. Of course, my heart belongs to her."

Anne felt like a bucket of ice water had been dumped over her head. At first, when Nigel told her to leave, she felt like she'd been stabbed in the back.

But now, hearing him say his heart was only for Fiona, it felt like he'd stabbed her once more.

It felt as though the Nigel before him was a completely different person.
