Teri’s lips curved into a sarcastic smile, saying, “Because Natasha is not Unity, and Alexei is not Dereck.”

Moreover, no one knew. Did she truly win?

Twenty years of sharing the same bed. Was it unwavering love or different minds? Only those involved know.

She looked at Chloe, her still stubbornly misguided niece, found it an eyesore, and averted her gaze.

“I’ll only advise you this one time. You are on your own,” said Teri.

Turning her back on Chloe, who was stunned, and the gloomy Westwood family villa, she left her own home.

Teri thought, ‘So this is what it feels like to be familyless and alone. Back then, when Unity lost her parents and husband, was she also this angry and resentful?

‘Unfortunately, no matter what, I have twenty more years than she did. I have no

regrets.‘

Mimicking Natasha, he settled comfortably on the carpet and pulled her into his

embrace.

The floor was covered with a mix of books, picture books, Lego, Ludo, and dolls… A varied collection. Alexei had a rare day off, and the two were cozied up at home, playing all sorts of childish games, as if reliving their childhood.

Natasha held an invitation from Ramona for an entertainment yacht party, and her eyes were fixed on it. She gasped, her mouth wide open, “Ah…”

Alexei instinctively brought grapefruit juice to her lips.

Natasha took a couple of gulps. “It depends on your availability. If you think it’s worthwhile, go. If you don’t like it, I don’t want to go either.”
