Chapter 21

It was rainy and cold on the day Jenna returned.Sebastian immediately took off his coat and put it on her, and she smiled at him.Matthew, who was not far away, looked at their actions and felt pain surge in his heart. He stepped forward and looked at Jenna with vulnerability and anticipation. "Jenna, I'm here to take you home."Jenna took Sebastian's arm and answered indifferently, "Mr. Simmons, please get out of the way. I don't have a home with you."Looking at her indifferent gaze, Matthew's heart hurt like it had been stabbed. He clenched his fists and pursed his lips. He forced down his unwillingness and agony before giving way reluctantly."See you tomorrow at 8:00 am. I hope you won't be late," Jenna added. After saying that to Matthew, who had frozen on the spot, she took Sebastian's arm and hailed a cab before leaving without hesitation.After watching the car drive away, Matthew only felt an emptiness. Endless loneliness and frustration surged and engulfed him. He cou

Matthew drank all day long after the divorce. It was as if he could forget everything by drowning himself in liquor. Every day, he flipped through photo albums of him and Jenna. He reprinted them and pasted them all over his bedroom. Plopping down on the floor, he looked at the photos and burst into tears.Whenever he came home in the past, the lights would be on and she would be waiting for him no matter how late it was. He put aside his work and drank at home all day but could not see the person who loved him wholeheartedly anymore.Matthew was afraid to sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, all he could think about was memories of them together, but those happy memories were always followed by scenes of him betraying and deceiving Jenna, which left him torn.He began to be afraid of staying at home alone and invited all his friends out for drinks. However, he only drank without saying a word after getting to the bar. His friends sat aside looking at each other, but no one dared t

Watching Matthew spit blood and look as if he were in extreme pain, Luna dropped the dagger to the ground as if she was suddenly triggered to her senses. She screamed at the blood on her hands, and the security guard at the bar entrance called the police.Soon, the police and ambulance arrived and took Luna and Matthew away.Matthew was taken to the emergency room, his life and death uncertain.Hearing the news, Amanda was so worried that she fainted. Henry was on a business trip out of town, so no one was around to take care of the mess.When Jenna received the call, she and Sebastian were discussing when to return to Malodia.The caller said she was the patient's only emergency contact and told her to get to the hospital as soon as possible.Jenna calmly responded, "I'm sorry, but I have nothing to do with him. You've got the wrong person."She hung up without hesitation as if she had moved on completely.Seeing her calmness, Sebastian faked a sigh. "Jenna, when are you going

Amanda looked at Matthew's listless look and eventually compromised. She could only shamelessly beg Jenna again.Knowing Amanda's intention, Jenna shook her head. "Mrs. Simmons, I'm very sorry. I don't want anything to do with Matthew anymore, and it's inappropriate for me to see him now."Amanda's expression was a little stiff. Hearing her last sentence, Amanda subconsciously answered, "Why is it inappropriate? Jenna, do you have any concerns?"Jenna smiled, looking shy. She was also smiling more. "Because I'm afraid it'll upset my boyfriend."The answer was like a grenade. Amanda did not expect Jenna to get a new boyfriend so soon.After two knocks, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Sebastian's voice sounded in the doorway. He smiled gently at Jenna. "Jenna, how much longer do you need? I've come to take you out to eat.""I'll be done soon." Jenna smiled back at him and beckoned him to sit next to her before looking back at Amanda. "Mrs. Simmons, is there anything else you

Matthew's smile fell apart. Soon, he could no longer continue smiling. "Jenna, have you really thought this through?"Without waiting for Jenna's reply, he eagerly added, "But all men are the same. Snap out of it! He's only nice to you because he hasn't won your heart yet. Once he gets it, he'll make the same mistake I did..."Jenna looked calmly at him. "So what? I've never given up on love. One failure doesn't mean I'll be depressed and never believe in love again. Maybe I'll marry him, maybe I won't. But whatever the outcome, it has nothing to do with you. Matthew, spare yourself and spare me."Every word struck Matthew's heart like a heavy blow.'Spare... her?' Matthew thought as he watched Jenna's mouth open and close. Soon, he suddenly heard a buzz. Intense pain spread from his chest to his whole body. It seemed to turn into countless steel needles, stabbing every inch of his skin. The pain swallowed him in endless darkness. The sounds he could hear softened until they disapp
