Instinctively, Raine’s body moved a little closer to the source of warmth. She was weak and hurt like a broken doll.The chill that hit Summer grew colder and colder, from the wet clothes to the deepest part of her body. She cowered there, shivering while looking coldly at the intimacy between them.She was cold, but there was no one to hold her. She was afraid, and there was no one to pat her and say to her, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” She was in pain, but there was no one to soothe her…Because her husband was so affectionate with another woman that he had no time for her. He might see her as an executioner in his heart, the executioner who had hurt the woman he loved to such an extent!She curled into a ball and kept shivering, burying her head between her knees.Even though she did not like Raine, she was happier than anyone to see her alive.Because if anything had happened to Raine, everyone would think that Raine died at her hands, and Raine would still be alive if she ha
The fists hanging on both sides of her body slowly tightened; struggling, hesitating, and finally, slowly, she said, “I…”But before she could finish her words, Raine had a bout of dry heaving, holding her cheeks in her hands and crying out in pain and suffering.She was not undiscerning. She knew that it was not appropriate to speak further in such a situation.His eyes swept over her coldly. When he heard the soft cough, his handsome face turned grim and cold at once, but softened again as he gazed at Raine.Swallowing back the words, Summer raised her head and looked silently out of the cave.It was clearly still raining outside. She could hear the rain even as she sat in the cave.Who knew how much time had passed. It was after two hours, perhaps three hours, when they finally heard the sound of footsteps approaching.Mark furrowed his handsome brow, his tall body stood up, holding Raine, who was unconscious in his arms, and he walked out of the cave.It must be the rescuer
She could not be frightened in such a situation, instead, she had to keep calm. If she was scared, what about her baby?She was the only person her baby had, and she could only rely on her baby. She felt the pain as she thought of that man, her hands clutching the blanket on her tightly, and a tear ran down the corner of her eye…“We will do our best!” The doctor comforted her and began to prepare.She fell into a coma shortly after the anesthetic was administered. The doctor started the emergency operation and the red light in the operating room went on.On the other sideThe red light of the operating room was still on.Mark’s masculine body sat on the bench, his eyes darting toward the emergency room from time to time. The staff came up to him with a brand-new suit. “Mr. Valentine.”He responded lightly, quickly changed into his new clothes and came out, when the thin figure of that woman suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.His thin lips moved slightly, wanting to ask so
But, in any case, it was a miracle, an unbelievable miracle!After a round of examinations and prescribing the medicine, the doctor suggested that she needed IV fluids. She wanted to take it back to the mansion, and the doctor agreed.Accompanied by the doctor and nurse, she returned to her mansion in a wheelchair. After the IV solution was hooked at the stand, the doctor left, leaving only the nurse.She was the only person in such a big mansion, and her husband was in the hospital with his lover…Did she hate him?At this moment, she no longer hated him. He should be accompanying the woman he loved, and she was just a stranger.Their marriage was just a deal from the start. She did not abide by the terms of the deal and sank deeper and deeper into the whirlpool of love.He did not love her. He had a woman he truly loved...So, let it be over. Either way, it was over.She sat there writing, and then paused for a moment, and then continued writing. It was a process of pain, nu
“I heard that she fell off the cliff and was cut by branches and stones, leaving her with wounds like that.”“Anyway, it’s really too bad. Such a beautiful face was wounded so severely!”When she heard it, she could not help but touch the right side of her face. The skin, once fair and smooth, was now left with crisscrossing wounds.The door opened and Mark walked in. The doctor had just treated the wound on his back. His face turned grim as he saw what Raine was doing. Hearing footsteps, Raine looked up and saw him coming. Her lips tried to force out a smile. “You’re back…”It was just that, the smile was actually not very pleasant. She was trying too hard to fake it.“Yes...” With a soft reply from his thin lips, Mark sat down opposite her, his big hand brushing back the hair that fell scattered on her cheek, and he said in a deep voice, “Stop smiling…”With a slight shock, Raine stopped smiling and said, “Mark, do I look terrible right now?”“No, you are as beautiful as eve
Mark raised his deep eyes, moving from Raine, who was a little unsteady and very agitated, to Summer, who was stubborn. He frowned; moving his thin lips, and said, “You, go back first…”Summer had no intention of leaving. She looked him straight in the eye and continued, “My words will be brief. I can finish them in two sentences.”Raine, however, apparently did not want to hear a single word from Summer at this point, and her chest heaved violently as she coughed achingly under pressure.Mark was still frowning. “You go back first. We’ll talk about it later…” There was a hint of impatience in his tone.Summer, of course, recognized the impatience in his tone. With a sarcastic curve of her lip, she took the divorce agreement out of her bag and handed it to Mark, saying, “Not later. Just sign here and I’ll leave immediately.”Mark’s long fingers gripped the document in his big palm. When he saw the few words, his big hand clenched the document and his eyes stared at her grimly.“W
She walked alone down the street, and across the sidewalk. Holding an umbrella, she slowly made her way through the busy crowd. She seemed to be the only one who was so down and out.Suddenly she heard a song. She stopped and stood still, listening.“But you didn’t have to cut me offMake out like it never happened and that we were nothingAnd I don’t even need your loveBut you treat me like a stranger and that feels so roughNow you’re just somebody that I used to know…”She heard this song before, but she did not expect to hear it again now, in this state of mind, with this tearing pain in her heart.Now you’re just somebody that I used to know…Somebody that I used to know… These few words described her situation so vividly. She really thought it was heaven at first, but it ended up like this.She did not know how long she had been standing alone on the street until she realized how cold she felt. She came out of her trance. The rain had soaked through all her clothes.The r
Raine was so agitated that her body, which had not yet recovered, was even more fragile. She was so angry that she could not breathe.The doctor came in, gave her IV fluids and some more instructions, and then left.Mark’s handsome face had been grim and calm since Summer left. He did not speak again after she left.Lying in bed, Raine’s eyes flickered over him. A glow of joy rose in her heart. He signed the divorce papers!But then she thought of her own face, and the glow in her look and eyes dimmed again.She did not care about looks, but who would not care when a woman’s face was ruined like that?Mark got up from the couch and was striding his long legs out of the ward.Raine, who was half-leaning on the bed, sat up and stared at the figure, and asked, “Where are you going? I… Have nightmares…” Her voice was hoarse.He turned around and his eyes fell gently on her. In a deep voice, he answered, “I’m going to have a cigarette. I’ll be back soon…”“You can smoke right here,
