Frederick's POVFootsteps stopped beside my bed, and I looked up to see Irene Arlington.It had been five years since I last saw her.She was not as emotional as I had imagined. She looked at me with a complicated expression.Her mouth opened as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, all she managed to say was, “Are you in any pain? Let me get the doctor.”My throat was dry. I wanted to speak, but no words came out.I could only manage to shake my head slowly.The room was quiet until the door swung open and a lighthearted voice floated in.“Ms. Arlington, didn’t you say you were taking me to pick out a birthday gift?”A young man barged in. When his eyes met mine, the smile on his face froze. He then looked at Irene hesitantly. She seemed awkward. She avoided his gaze and said to me, “He’s my assistant, Peter Lande.”Peter was clearly unhappy when she said that. His eyes welled up with tears, but he said nothing. I lowered my gaze. I felt a sharp ache in my

Irene only returned home after dark. She was carrying bags of all sizes when she returned. Most of them were daily necessities.When she pushed the door open, she saw I was in the living room.She set the bags down on the table, crouched in front of my wheelchair, and said softly, “Frederick, don’t take what I said earlier to heart. I was just…“I’m just exhausted. I’m only one person, and I have to work while taking care of you. For five years, I’ve done my best. Anyone would be tired.”She continued cautiously, “After your accident, I couldn’t bear to be in this house. Too many memories… That’s why I never stayed here.“Don’t worry. I hired a caregiver. She’ll take care of you from now on.”Back then, those words would have moved me. But I knew she had already found someone better.She stood up. Her gaze swept over the plane ticket on my phone, then she said with a smile, “Once your legs are a bit better, I’ll go with you wherever you want.”I pursed my lips tightly and gav

Third-Person POVIn the end, Irene turned him down.She shoved Peter away. “I promised Frederick I’d spend Christmas with him. He should be here any minute. You need to go!”After getting rejected, Peter did not make a scene. Instead, he held onto her and would not let go.“I’m not going anywhere! It doesn’t matter if he sees us. Didn’t you already make things clear to him?“We’ve been together three years! We’ve done everything there is to do. There’s no reason to keep stringing him along.”Ignoring his remark, she kept urging him to leave. For some reason, she simply did not want Frederick to see her with Peter.She thought about how distant Frederick had been with her these past few days.He seemed calmer and more understanding about the whole thing. He did not throw a fit.That was exactly what made her feel uneasy.“Just go! The fact is that he did save my life.“I’m not divorcing him!”Peter looked unhappy, but he still kissed her on the forehead and said, “It’s oka

Irene did not pay attention to what Lily said afterward. Her ears were ringing, and her mind went completely blank.Once she snapped out of it, she took a cab home.The divorce lawyer, Matthew Lance, was sitting on the couch waiting for her.“My client has already signed the papers. The only thing he’s asking for is the money in his account. He’s not taking anything else. “Take your time. Sign whenever you’re ready. These terms are all in your favor.”Her face gradually turned pale. She remembered Frederick bringing up divorce before. It seemed he had been serious about it. As luck would have it, Peter called at that exact moment. Matthew sat on one side of the couch calmly, waiting for her to hang up.“I’m not signing anything. If he wants a divorce, he can come say it to my face.” Her breathing came raggedly.“Ms. Arlington, signing is in your best interest. As it stands, my client is still alive. What you’re doing is adultery.“I’ve done my homework. You were consider
