Chapter 16

He let out a cold laugh. "I begged you not to divorce me, Tessa. I pleaded for Lorraine's sake. But you insisted on leaving. I told you then that you'd regret your decision, but you thought I was joking." Tessa's voice trembled as she shouted, "Matthew, I was out of my mind back then. I wasn't thinking straight.

Matthew shook his head slowly. "You regret it now? There's no magic fix for that."

Tessa felt her world collapse as she watched him walk away.

She burst into tears, wailing, "Matthew, I know you love me! Remember when you first got out of prison? You smiled and walked toward me, wanting to hug me. "That proves you love me! I know I was wrong. Matthew, please don't go,.I beg you..."

Matthew didn't stop despite her pleads. As he disappeared from view, Tessa's sobs subsided. She stood up slowly and stared at the villa with its closed curtains. "Matthew, you obviously still love me. I've already apologized, so why won't you remarry me?
