All Chapters of Why the Crocodile Tears?: Chapter 461 - Chapter 470

This time, Gregory reached for the bowl of soup again.Before he could touch it, Anathea had already picked it up and taken a sip. Expressionless, she asked, "Happy now?""Could be better." Gregory smirked slightly as he picked some food for her. "Eat some more."Anathea glanced at him. "Gregory, do you know what you look like right now? A maidservant from ancient times."A nurse nearby bit her lip to hold back a laugh.Gregory, unfazed by her teasing, actually looked more serious. "Then you're my mistress."Anathea said nothing.She figured that with how shameless Gregory was now, if she slapped him, there was a good chance he would just grab her wrist and plant a kiss right on her palm.The thought made her shiver.So she stayed far away from him and quietly ate her food.Gregory sat opposite her, making no further moves. He just watched her eat and occasionally offered more food after she finished.As Anathea chewed, she caught him out of the corner of her eye.Though th

Gregory's eyes were already rimmed with red. He rested his forehead gently against the back of Anathea's head, trying to suppress the lump in his throat."Then at least let me stay with you for tonight. Just one night. That's all I ask."His tone carried a hint of pleading, tinged with a quiet humility.He didn't dare ask for forgiveness. He just wanted to be near her, even if it was only for this one night.Anathea didn't respond. She neither agreed nor refused.Because she knew that she would leave this place behind for good after tonight. She would leave behind everything that had worn her down.It was just one night, after all.She closed her eyes and let him hold her.Sensing her silent acquiescence, Gregory smiled faintly. He held her a little tighter, like he wanted to fuse her into his bones. Yet his grip was so careful and controlled, as if he was afraid she would break."Annie, please eat well and rest properly. Take care of your body and stay healthy, okay?"He pre

"Anathea?" A flicker of surprise flashed in Adrian's eyes. He glanced between Theo and Gregory, looking thoroughly entertained."Gregory, did you really think that locking her up and playing the caring husband every day would make her forget everything she's been through? That kind of pain doesn't just vanish!"Theo jabbed a finger at Gregory. "Don't you get it? As long as she stays with you, she'll always be in danger. Those who are after you will never spare anyone close to you. And yet, you're still selfish enough to trap her by your side! You don't love her. This is just your twisted possessiveness talking!""So you thought you could just lure me out to some remote corner of nowhere and secretly send my wife away?" Gregory asked calmly.Theo faltered. He knew it wasn't exactly the right thing to do. But he didn't care at all."So what if I did? She doesn't want to be tied to you and be your wife!" Theo scoffed. "She chose to accept my help. That proves she's dead set on leavin

Gregory thought nothing outside mattered, as long as he could be by Anathea's side. But just as Anathea had said, that wasn't love. It was possessiveness.Only when she carved a shocking wound on her wrist just so she wouldn't be trapped by him did he realize how utterly wrong he had been all along."Love isn't about possession. It's about letting her do what she wants." Gregory gazed out the window. His hoarse voice had a hint of acceptance.So, he chose to let go and gave Anathea her freedom back.…At Castenea International Airport, Anathea said, "You should go now.""Alright." Louie nodded, then handed her a document. It was the divorce agreement, already signed by Gregory.Anathea paused for a moment before smiling faintly. "He finally agreed?"Louie nodded. "You can take it with you and sign it after you've thought it—""Do you have a pen?" Anathea asked.Louie hadn't expected her to be so decisive. He pulled out a pen to hand over.Still, he felt the need to speak for

Anathea gave an exasperated shake of her head. She knew Evangeline, who loved to drink despite being a lightweight, was incorrigible. She had no choice but to have Lena escort Evangeline back."I'll come back to pick you up after she's settled in," Lena said to Anathea before leading an inebriated Evangeline out of the lounge.Anathea and Olivia were the only ones left in the lounge. The latter mused in surprise, "You sure know how to hold your drink. You're not even tipsy!"When Olivia first met Anathea, the latter had been a slip of a submissive woman who stood behind her husband and let him drink on her behalf. But now, Anathea had become more outgoing and dazzling. It was as if she was glowing from within, and it was hard not to find her dependable.It was proven, then, that one only had to practice one's expertise to shine like a diamond, and Anathea was exceptional in her art. It was why Olivia trusted her so much to begin with."You've changed a lot," Olivia remarked seri
