Chapter 7
The scenery in Linport was beautiful, so I decided to settle down here. After getting someone to
help me a residence permit, I bought a small villa nearby. Although it was not big, the

decoration was very cozy, and even if I lived alone, I wouldn’t feel lonely.
The following days were plain yet fulfilling. To make the house livelier, I also kept a small cat and a small dog.
The little cat always liked to drink my foot–washing water, so I named it Foot–Water.
The little dog, on the other hand, liked to carry small stones in its mouth, and thus got the name
“Little Stone“.
With their company, my originally peaceful life started to become lively, just because they were too mischievous and often caused trouble for me.
What surprised me was that Darnell would come here.
That day happened to be the day when I joined a tour group and prepared to go skiing at Linport
Snow Mountain.
Little did he know that as soon as he stepped out, his path would be blocked by Darnell, who appeared out of nowhere.
“Kyra, you were here!”
At first glance, I didn’t recognize Darnell because it had been a month since we last saw each other, and he had lost a lot of weight and looked excessively haggard.
He is completely different from the past when he was a high and aloof CEO.
The moment he saw me, his dull eyes lit up, and he walked over quickly, wanting to hug me, but I dodged away.
I took a few steps back, distancing myself from him, and watched him warily, saying, “Don’t come any closer.”
Darnell paused in his steps, and a hint of hurt flashed in his eyes. “Kyra, what did I do wrong? Why are you treating me like this?”
“I was only away for a day, and you disappeared from my side without a word, leaving me a divorce agreement. Do you no longer love me?”
His voice was filled with sadness as if he had suffered a great injustice.
It seems that he still doesn’t know that I have already discovered his affair with Nadia.
I took out my phone and played the words Nadia said in the ward that day.
Did you think he loved you? Every day after you fell asleep, he would come to me. Even when I was pregnant, he wouldn’t stop. I won’t hide it from you, on the day you had a miscarriage, he didn’t

you back
Darnell’s face turned pale all of a sudden, and he looked at me in disbelief, “She… she told you?”
I put away my phone and said lightly, “Do you now understand why I left you? For the sake of our marriage, I can choose not to pursue this matter, but I hope you have the sense to stop disturbing my life.”
After speaking, I turned around and wanted to leave, but Darnell grabbed my hand and shook his head, saying, “Kyra, listen to me, I didn’t marry her, you are my only wife.”
The so–called explanation seemed like a joke, making me unable to resist laughing at myself. “We have already divorced, whoever you marry is your business, no need to explain to me. You better go
back and take care of Nadia, I guess the child in her belly is also waiting for you to come back.”
Darnell shook his head again and explained, “We didn’t get divorced, I didn’t sign that divorce
agreement. You are still my wife, I can explain about Nadia, it was just a novelty with her, but I assure you, I have always loved you and that love has never diminished.”
“You know, as someone with my status, many women want to get close to me. At first, I could
firmly refuse, but I am only human after all, unable to control the desires of my body, so…”
Every word that Darnell spoke felt like a sharp arrow piercing my heart, mocking the years of love
and trust I had invested in this relationship.
I couldn’t help it and raised my hand to slap him. “This is not an excuse for your infidelity. I have told you before that if you fall in love with someone else or have an affair with another woman, you should tell me proactively. But you were entangled with her for a whole three years. During these three years, you had many opportunities to confess to me, but you didn’t. You chose to conceal it and even had my uterus removed, making it impossible for me to conceive and make way for her
child.”
The anger that had been suppressed in my heart completely erupted at this moment, unconsciously raised a lot.
Darnell was stunned and for a moment didn’t know how to respond to me.
and my voice
However, he didn’t have the chance either, as the tour group had already arrived at my doorstep, beckoning me to hurry and get on the bus.
I didn’t want to waste time with Darnell, so I bypassed him and got in the car.
3/4
Through the car window, I saw Darnell standing there, looking dazed as if he had lost his soul.
But the reason he had his back turned to me, was I couldn’t see what expression he had on his face.
now, nor did I want to see.
