When my husband once again chooses to abandon me to celebrate his true love's birthday, I finally let go. He takes his true love stargazing; I don't cause a fuss. He buys her an expensive scarf, but all I do is smile. I even tell him to buy another hat—it's pretty cold. He thinks I've finally learned to be obedient. However, he has no idea I've secretly renounced my citizenship to join Doctors Without Borders. By the time he comes to his senses, I've vanished without a trace.

Where Stars Don't Follow Chapter 9
After we had the conversation that day, I thought Sean would get the message and leave. I did not expect him to still stick around and follow me wherever I went. However, I completely ignored him and acted as if he was not there.One day, Victor said that he felt like he was having a fever. I placed my palm against my forehead. Then, I put it against Victor's forehead."I don't think so. It feels like our temperatures are about the same."Before I could finish, a grumpy voice called out from above my head, "What are the two of you doing?"Sean was fuming as he squeezed between me and Victor. His eyes blazed with hostility as he stared at Victor."What's the matter with you? Why can't you keep your hands off the lady?"I smiled at Victor awkwardly. Then, I snapped at Sean, "What does it have to do with you? Sean Chandler, aren't you being a bit too nosy?""I'm being nosy? He put his hand on your forehead! He's clearly taking advantage of you. What is with you, Ms. Williams? Don't

Sean had not given up after that. He tried various means to track me down. At one point, he even traveled to the headquarters of the organization I had joined. As expected, he did not manage to obtain any information from them.The world was a vast place. It was rather impossible to find someone, especially when they had renounced their citizenship.Eventually, Sean crumbled in despair. It did not take long for him to end up in a disheveled and dispirited state.He even started to pay less attention to his research and lecture classes, which he used to be passionate about. He felt that he could no longer let things go on like this. He was not helping the students with their studies at all.Sean felt indignant. He knew that the love he had for me was something ingrained deep within his soul. He could not bear to part with me. So, the only way for him to fix his miserable life was to find me.I was the only one who could save him.Sean resigned from his job at the college and appli

With a pained expression, Sean shut his eyes. He suddenly recalled what I said the other day."Sean, let's get a divorce."He realized I was not joking or throwing a tantrum. I was seriously considering divorcing him.Sean remembered that he had hugged me and tried to cheer me up that day. In retrospect, I was probably so disappointed in him that I had lost the will to argue with him.Memories of what happened during the last few days he had seen me flashed through his mind.I had suddenly put on my father's white coat. The cold look I had in my eyes when Sean called me spiteful at the restaurant the other day… Our wedding photo was not actually sent to the shop to be changed into a new frame…He realized I had tricked him. I had planned on leaving early on. Sean pounded his head with his hands and blamed himself for being too dense and imperceptive.If he had noticed one of these telling signs during the past month, he would not have learned that I was leaving only after I wa

Sean was hospitalized for several days, and Evelyn had been taking care of him during those days.He kept staring at the door. He sensed this hollow feeling within him. At first, he had no idea what he was anticipating.When a colleague asked why I had not come to visit him, it finally dawned on him why he was feeling empty and lonely.I had promised to visit him the next day. Yet, I had not shown up once for the past five days.Sean was gripped by a sense of panic. He remained motionless even when Evelyn was holding a slice of apple to his mouth after she peeled off the skin.She pouted. "What's wrong, Dr. Chandler? Why do you look so distracted? Are you worried about work? Don't worry. The college has approved your leave so that you can get enough rest. You shouldn't stress yourself by worrying over work, alright? Have some apples."Sean came to his senses. He forced a smile, yet he did not open his mouth to eat that slice of apple."It's not about work. Evelyn, can you stop b

My words eased Sean's anxious, restless mind. He put his arms around me and drifted into a deep sleep.I stared at his strong, handsome features, my eyes hardened.A colleague? He would go stargazing with his colleague, celebrate her birthday, and even take her to an amusement park. Yet, he told me, his wife, that birthday celebrations were for kids.Being let down time and time again had left me completely drained. I would not trust his words anymore.…The next day, I headed to the relevant department to renounce my citizenship. Today was the day I would be leaving, and I hoped that everything would go as planned.Yet, I did not expect receiving a call on my way home, saying that Sean was involved in a car accident. My mind went blank. I immediately hailed a cab to get to the hospital.When I arrived outside the ward and was about to push the door open, I overheard some people talking."Sean, you scared the light out of me when you dashed forward and pushed Evelyn out of the

After I got home, I checked my phone and found that there were only seven days left until it was the third of next month.I decided to start packing, but I quickly noticed that I did not have much to pack. A suitcase was enough to keep everything that I needed to take with me.When Sean arrived home, I was staring at the divorce papers on the table absent-mindedly. I wanted to bring up the issue tonight since it would soon be time for me to leave.He changed into his slippers and went into the study. I took the divorce papers and was about to knock on the door when I heard Evelyn's voice coming from inside the room."Dr. Chandler, are you really going to divorce Maisie?"I tightened my grip over the divorce papers. It turned out Sean was considering divorce, too. That would work in my favor. It seemed like we would be able to have a smooth, amicable discussion.Suddenly, the study door flung open. I was about to initiate the conversation, but Sean said that he had to work overtim

From that day onward, I had not gotten in any arguments with Sean regardless of what he did. It was because I decided that I no longer wanted to be with him.I hired a lawyer to draft our divorce papers. At the same time, I submitted my application to the non-governmental organization to participate in the work of medical humanitarian assistance.Now that they had approved my application, I just needed Sean to sign the divorce papers.I met up with a close friend for a meal the next day. She teased me by saying that the sun would probably rise in the west the next day."It's been four years! Ever since you got married, you always said that you needed to prepare meals for your husband whenever I tried to ask you out."During our four years of marriage, I had made sure to prepare meals for Sean every day. However, that was not going to happen anymore.While we were eating, I picked up on a familiar voice and looked in the voice's direction.Evelyn pouted. "Dr. Chandler, you had to

I was thrilled and elated when I received the call saying that my application got through."Rest assured. I'll definitely show up and report for duty on the third of next month!"After ending the call, I placed my hand over the necklace I wore around my neck. My eyes felt hot. The necklace was a memento from my late parents.Both of my parents were doctors that served in a non-governmental organization to provide medical humanitarian assistance. My dream was to be like them and join the same field.However, when I married Sean Chandler four years ago, I decided to put my dreams and passion aside since Sean felt that the job would be too dangerous. It was finally time for me to realize my dreams since there was nothing holding me back now.I wiped my tears off. Just as I turned my head, I spotted Sean, who had just come out of the bathroom. He was drying his wet hair with a towel. He frowned slightly when he noticed how the corners of my eyes were red."Were you crying?"I shoo
