Author: The Gardener’s Robin
It was not until then that Camellia finally came. “Micheal… everything will be fine.”

Her eyes were red as she crouched down and nestled into Micheal’s arms.

“You still have me even without Chloe. After all these years, wasn’t Chloe’s decision to leave also her way of giving us what we wanted? Maybe for her, staying alive had become a kind of suffering.

"After all, you’re her husband, and I’m her sister. We were the two people she trusted most, and we’re the ones who betrayed her.”

  • We Part, We Long, We Never Meet Again   Chapter 9

    Micheal refused to divorce me.It was not until he saw the ninth new wound on my body that he finally broke down. He knelt beside my hospital bed and handed me the divorce papers, already signed.“Chloe, I’ll give you whatever you want as long as you promise you won’t hurt yourself again.”Along with the signed papers came everything he owned.The moment I had the divorce papers in my hands, I felt a weight lift from my heart. Not long after, I was discharged from the hospital.In the days that followed, I placed a small portion of Tristan’s ashes inside a bracelet. Just as I had promised him when we hooked our little fingers together, I took him around the world to see the mountains, oceans, rivers, and lakes.Micheal followed behind me the entire time, like a stubborn shadow that refused to go away no matter how many times I tried to shake him off. Eventually, I simply treated him as though he was invisible. I stopped acknowledging him altogether.As the journey went on, the w

    I went to the morgue to see Tristan. He lay inside a morgue drawer. Micheal told me that I could make all the decisions regarding his funeral. My fingertips traced Tristan's pale, bloodless, yet icy face as I stared at him. My heart felt as though it was being torn apart.Slowly, I bent down and wrapped my arms around him. It was as though my body heat could somehow warm Tristan’s cold body.Micheal stood at the door, watching me with a grief-stricken expression. He did not dare to come inside.After all, what right did a bastard who refused to take his own son to the hospital before he died have to stand here and see him one last time?I stayed in the morgue for a long time, so long that the sun had begun to set before I finally rose.“Don’t worry, Tristan. I'll live a good life. I still have to take you around the world and show you everything.”The surveillance footage had already been delivered to Micheal. They had also found the driver who caused the accident.Micheal use

    “Once Chloe wakes up, I’ll take her overseas and get her away from this place that’s caused her so much pain. As for you…”Micheal paused for a moment. His eyes were filled with guilt and regret, with a flicker of reluctant tenderness, but not a trace of love remained. “You can have my law firm and all my money. I owe you that much, but I can’t spend the rest of my life hurting Chloe.”Camellia struck him hard across the face. “You jerk!”Tears streamed down her cheeks, but she stubbornly lifted her chin.“You really think Chloe will still go with you when she wakes up? You didn’t just betray her and cheat on her with her own sister. You got both of her children killed! If I were her, I’d want to tear you apart with my bare hands! Micheal, wake up! I’m the only person who loves you now!”Micheal stood perfectly still. He let Camellia rage at him, hit him, and curse him. Only when she finally ran out of strength and collapsed to the floor did he say in a hoarse voice, “It doesn

    It was not until then that Camellia finally came. “Micheal… everything will be fine.”Her eyes were red as she crouched down and nestled into Micheal’s arms.“You still have me even without Chloe. After all these years, wasn’t Chloe’s decision to leave also her way of giving us what we wanted? Maybe for her, staying alive had become a kind of suffering. "After all, you’re her husband, and I’m her sister. We were the two people she trusted most, and we’re the ones who betrayed her.”She dug her nails into her palm. It hurt, but beneath the pain was a secret thrill. She saw what had happened to Tristan. She had watched the accident unfold. However, she selfishly did not want Micheal to save him.She had stayed by his side for so many years without ever having a name or place in his life. Why could she not be selfish just once?As long as Tristan was dead, Micheal and Chloe could never be together again. After more than 20 years as sisters, she knew Chloe better than anyone. The mo

    Blood gushed from the wound, splattering across Micheal’s face. The uncertainty and guardedness that had clouded his eyes were suddenly swallowed by terror.“Chloe!” His hands shook uncontrollably. In the end, he could only stumble and crawl toward the door, screaming at the top of his lungs, “Help! Somebody help! Please save my wife and son!”The nurses heard his cries and rushed in with a stretcher. The moment they saw what had happened in the room, everyone sucked in a sharp breath.Micheal stayed by my side, gripped my hand so tightly that it hurt. “Chloe, are you crazy? How could you…? You’ll be okay… You’ll be fine…”“Micheal.” I parted my lips, but my mouth was flooded with blood. It reduced my voice to broken fragments.“Didn’t you say I deserve this? Didn’t you say you would rather have watched me die back then? Well, I’ve lost both my children, and now, I’m dying too. No one will stand between you and Camellia again. Are you happy now?”“Stop. Please, stop…” He nearly c

  • We Part, We Long, We Never Meet Again   Chapter 4

    Micheal’s expression darkened. He opened his mouth as though he wanted to say something.Camellia suddenly let out a pained moan. Micheal’s attention snapped back to her, and he gently wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead. He only offered two words to me, “Suit yourself.”I took the hint, quietly walked out of the room, and closed the door behind me.I wandered down the street like a ghost. The temperature was pushing forty degrees, yet I could not stop shivering.I found a lawyer and had the divorce papers drawn up, then I packed our things as quickly as I could and picked Tristan up from his after-school lesson.I asked Tristan, “Tristan, I'm going to separate from your dad. Will you live with me from now on?”He warped his little arms tightly around me and nodded. “Wherever you go, I’ll go!”At last, a flicker of warmth reached my shattered heart. Whatever else I had lost, I could at least take comfort in knowing I had not lost everything.The moment Tristan and I step
