Chapter 7

Author: Pigeon Puppet
Sasha rushed out and blocked my car. She fell to her knees and pleaded, "Don't be mad, Ms. Cooper. It's all my fault! I was the one who told Mr. Gallagher that I wanted to visit Andy. I was the one who caused the rift between the two of you!"

I slammed on the horn. "Get out of my way!"

Sasha remained unmoving.

I started the car engine and threatened her, "Are you leaving or not? I'll run you over if not!"

Sasha looked up gracefully and softly said, "Feel free to run me over if my death would calm you down, Ms. Cooper!"

Furious, I slammed my fist against the steering wheel. The sharp honk echoed throughout the Gallagher residence. My heart ached with pain.

Miles walked over to Sasha, picked her up, and returned to the Gallagher residence. He said, "You're getting increasingly out of control, Yvette. You're completely unreasonable and downright absurd.

"Fine. Let's get a divorce if that's what you want, but leave Andy with me. I'll find him an emotionally stable mother and not som

    Sasha had instructed Nancy to tidy up my wardrobe and vanity, and Nancy did as instructed.When Miles returned in the evening, he realized that the layout of the bedroom had changed and got furious. He gave Sasha a harsh slap when she tried to explain, causing her to fall to the ground.Perhaps her body was frail and delicate as she used to be a celebrity, but the slap caused her to miscarry. She bled heavily and was rushed to the hospital. However, the baby couldn't be saved.The doctor hinted to Miles that they could only save either Sasha or the baby. It was a choice that wouldn't typically even be considered in a regular hospital. But the Gallaghers weren't just anyone.Everyone knew that Miles had divorced and lost custody of his son. If he wanted the baby, the hospital had ways of saving it—even at the cost of Sasha's life.Miles said, "Save Sasha."Sasha thought that he saved her as they could always have more children in the future. She never imagined that he only married

    Sasha went on her knees in front of my car, just like how she did years ago.I was terrified of running over her and immediately hit the brakes. Andy was engrossed in his game console, and the abrupt braking caused him to bump his forehead, leaving it red.I hurriedly pulled him over. "I'm sorry! Let me blow the pain away for you."Sasha was bawling on the ground in front of my car. "I'm begging you not to destroy my family, Ms. Cooper. I've already lost a child. I don't want to lose Miles too!"This time, I did not lose control with the endless honking. I put the headphones on Andy, straightened his collar, and gently caressed his cheek. "You can continue with your game. I'll get out of the car and come back quickly, okay?"He reached to remove the headphones. He said determinedly, "I'm going too, Mommy!"I stopped him. "No. Don't. Just listen to me and continue with your game, okay?"I opened the car door, and for a moment, it felt like time and space had overlapped with the p

    Sasha muttered, "What did I do wrong? I was just terrified. You don't understand what I'm going through."I stopped trying to reason with her. Instead, I smiled and said, "Miles told me that you were assaulted, so he accompanied you to the hospital to get evidence. He even called the police over. Yet, there was nothing concrete in the end."Sasha turned pale. Her cheeks then flushed as she shouted, "That was just a misunderstanding!"I continued asking, "He also told me that you drugged him the day he slept with you?"Miles only said that he was drunk, but I deliberately said that she had drugged him.To my surprise, Sasha did not refute me. She only muttered, "You were the one who didn't want him in the first place. You gave Mr. Gallagher up first, Ms. Cooper. I only fed on your leftovers. I never inserted myself into your marriage."I crossed my arms and leaned against my car. "Very well. You should keep in mind that I would never take back my leftovers. I don't want to get int

    Miles took a quick step forward and grabbed my arm.I glanced at his hand, smiled wryly, and asked, "This isn't appropriate, Mr. Gallagher. You should be mindful of your actions when you have a family now."He seemed to have a lot to say. Yet, in the end, he bitterly said, "Can't we just sit down and have a proper conversation, Yvvy?""I have nothing to say to a married man," I replied.Speaking of the devil, the doorbell rang once again.Sasha, Miles' second wife, showed up. She was dressed in all white. She wore a cashmere coat, beret, and a scarf, with her hair done straight and simple.Although she was married, she looked incredibly fresh and youthful."Hello, Grandpa Connor and Grandma Katie," Sasha greeted them politely. She then walked in and called for Miles. "I heard that Grandpa Connor and Grandma Katie aren't used to staying over. Did you send them back, Miles?"It was a rather awkward situation now, as he still held onto my arm. It made me seem like a mistress.Sas

    Miles turned around and was met with Sasha's gaze.I happened to be looking down at Andy. Someone had given him a diamond necklace, which he was about to stuff into his mouth.I hurriedly pulled it out of his mouth. "Don't put just anything into your mouth, Andy!"Miles regained his senses and pried open Andy's mouth. With our joint effort, we finally tossed the diamond necklace onto the banquet table. We then hurriedly took a crying Andy out.Sasha ran after us and pleaded with Miles, "I'll get scolded by my agent and the agency if I return without making a single sale tonight, Mr. Gallagher. Can you please help me out?"He turned to me and asked, "Do you like it?"I wasn't in the mood to think about it as I was busy with Andy. I replied perfunctorily, "The jewelry on her wrist is beautiful. I'll wear it during the summer if you buy it."I then crouched to cover Andy's mouth to stop him from crying loudly and slipped away to the rooftop.Miles took the waiter's signing pen and

    Sasha walked in, drenched from head to toe. Her wet hair clung to her pitifully. I couldn't help but steal glances at her even though I was annoyed with her.Sasha looked delicate and enchanting. Even I couldn't take my eyes off her.Miles said, "You should come in and get a change of clothes. You're soaking wet! Don't worry. I've dealt with those reporters outside already."Sasha hesitantly stepped back and said, "Isn't this inappropriate? Your wife might get angry."Miles lost his patience and turned to look at me. "Yvvy is just there. She's the one who asked me to help you out the last time. Try asking her if she would be angry."I took a seat with Andy in my arms, looking cold as I told Nancy, "Get her a spare change of clothes and an umbrella. Make sure you see the guest off later."The mood suddenly became awkward.Miles picked Andy up and looked at me, resigned. "Don't get jealous out of nowhere, Yvette. Didn't you tell me to be kind to others?"…I chuckled coldly.Ye

    Miles let out a relieved sigh and looked at me gratefully. He wrapped his arms around me before burying his face on my shoulder. "You're the best, darling! I knew you were understanding."I said indifferently, "But I've had enough of living like this."Miles started panicking. "Darling—"I continued, "I'm giving you an ultimatum. Either you send Sasha away and cut all contact with her—no more misunderstandings or involvement—and we try to get back to how things were before. Or, you keep playing the good guy and continue looking after Sasha, and we get a divorce."Miles pushed me onto the couch angrily. "You're getting a divorce with me just because of this trivial matter? How dare you even suggest getting a divorce, Yvette! Who do you think I am? Try divorcing me if you dare!""Try getting tangled up with Sasha again," I said, chuckling coldly as I pushed his face away. "And you'll find out if I dare to divorce you or otherwise."Miles pulled at his hair irritably. "Why are you i
