Chapter 4
Pavion looked at me curiously and asked, “Honey, what made you so happy?”
I locked the screen and said calmly, “My best friend invited me for afternoon tea, but I forgot about
- it. She’s scolding me right now.” Davion seemed to suddenly breathe a sigh of relief, “So, are you
still going?”
“Of course, otherwise Paola wouldn’t have let me off for three days.”
“You also went to the company to do your own things.”
Davion looked displeased, “I’m starting to get jealous of Paola, you always favor her.”
“I really didn’t want you to go, can’t we have some alone time together?”
I turned around to look at him, but he had already turned the steering wheel and was preparing to make a U–turn. I smiled and turned my face away, saying, “There will be time in the future.”
“Yes, we have a lifetime ahead of us, this time I won’t argue with Paola.”
He took me to a private club and then hurriedly drove away.
Half an hour later, Danica Larson messaged me again.
“Did he leave you behind and not care anymore?”
“You see, he said that whenever I cried, he would soften his heart.”
“By the way, I was pregnant. He said to me to give birth, and he also said he likes daughters, but I wanted to give birth to a son for him.”
“I have calculated, and I am certain that this pregnancy of mine was a son.”
“It’s just a pity that the doctor didn’t allow us to have intercourse during the early stages of
pregnancy. I haven’t even worn the new underwear he bought for me yet.”
“His demands were always high, and you couldn’t satisfy him. He must have been very frustratch.
I did not reply, but I saved all the messages she sent by taking screenshots.
My hands were shaking a little while doing all of this.
Perhaps Davion had been too immersed in acting all these years.
I also naively trusted him too much. So, when his absurd and chaotic side was revealed.
[still couldn’t control my emotions.
The tenderness that used to touch me in the bedroom turned out to be all fake.

He had long been disgusted with our lukewarm affair.
When I thought restraint was love..
Reality gave me a hard slap in the face.
The decreasing frequency of intimacy was not due to love and care.
It was just not enjoyable, so even the perfunctory was too lazy to be perfunctory.
Before going home, I made a phone call to my former mentor.
“Marisa? You child, why did you take so long to call the teacher?”
“Teacher, does your investigation group still need manpower? I would like to join.”
Is your body okay?”
Actually, I wanted to join when I graduated.
The teacher also particularly hoped that I could be with her.
But at that time, my health was really poor, and the investigation group had to travel all over the place, both domestically and internationally. Many places had harsh conditions, and sleeping
outdoors and eating whatever was available became a common occurrence.
“I just had a physical examination, and the doctor said as long as I pay attention, there won’t be any major problems.”
“Would your husband like to?”
“Marisa, you should know that if you join in, you will be constantly on the go all year round.”
“And many of our projects were classified by the government, so we were almost cut off from our
families…”
“Teacher, I had already decided to get a divorce.”
“Did he do something to hurt you?”
I nodded with a smile and swallowed my tears, “Yes, he cheated.”
“Did you really make up your mind about your ten–year relationship?”
“Teacher, do you remember the words you said to me when you wanted to get divorced back then?”
“Heard that you had another heart, it crushed and burned it. Crushed and burned it, the wind shall
scatter its ashes.”
My eyes were bloodshot, and tears rolled down incessantly. “Teacher, I am the one you taught, so naturally I am just like you.”

Okay, okay! Marisa, the teacher is waiting for you, waiting for you to come!”
