Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 345

Chapter 337

In the car, Archie noticed Mila's face was pinched in discomfort, her brows drawn tight. He could tell she was battling a headache again. Leaning over, he murmured softly, “Mila, if you're not feeling well, try to get some sleep. I'll keep an eye out."

Mila nodded faintly.

After a moment's hesitation, she took a deep breath of oxygen, but the pain lingered. Giving in, she closed her eyes and slipped into restless dreams.

A vague sense of dread crept in.

Somewhere in the dark, the faint clink of chains echoed, along with a girl's barely audible murmur.

"It's so dark... didn't anyone turn on the lights?"

Mila groped blindly through the blackness. The chain around her ankle rattled with every hesitant step. She felt disoriented, still not fully awake.

Ever since she'd moved into the manor, Lysander's relentless demands-at all hours, in any place—had destroyed her sleep cycle. Day and night blurred together until she could barely tell them apart.
