Paige replied, "Oh.""Besides, you're not that clever. I'm afraid you'd mess things up if you meddle in their affair. In the end, it won't benefit anyone. Not just two but three parties will suffer. Your dad, your mom, and your sister, isn't that three parties?" Chris remarked.Paige looked at Chris in distress. What did he mean by her not being clever enough?"I got into university through sheer hard work," Paige replied indignantly. Her school was also a nationally renowned institution, and her admission was proof of her high intelligence.Chris chuckled as he looked at Paige's indignant expression. "Intelligence and emotional intelligence are two different things." Was he mocking her for her lack of emotional intelligence? She considered arguing but decided against it. She could not be bothered to engage in a debate with Chris.… Paige got changed and left the Cloudnine Suite with Chris. Glancing at the time, she realized it was a little late in the afternoon to go to the

She was lying in the hospital bed, and Paige was on her phone as if nothing was amiss."Paige..." Wendy called out to Paige."Hm?" Paige looked at Wendy, stood up, and approached the hospital bed, asking, "Mom, what's up?""Do you know that your dad and I are getting a divorce?" Wendy asked directly.Paige nodded. "Yeah."Wendy continued, "So, what do you think? Do you think your dad and I should get divorced?"Paige looked at Wendy and replied, "Naturally, I don't want you both to divorce, but if you both have made that decision, I respect your choice."Wendy was initially pleased with the first part of Paige's response, but her mood turned cold as she heard the rest. She understood what Paige meant. It meant Paige did not care whether her parents were divorced or not. Paige was only concerned about her own happiness now that she was married to Chris."Are you happy seeing me like this?" Wendy asked Paige with a cold, piercing gaze.She knew that as Chris' wife, Paige had p

Sierra let out a sigh and said, "Mom, Paige isn't like that."She understood Paige. Even though their mom and dad might not have been particularly good to Paige, Paige still loved them and hoped they could have a good life.Even though Sierra was not there, she could imagine Wendy treating Paige with the same attitude as before, harsh and without any kindness.However, things had changed. Paige was not the same person who used to have no one to support her. Now, Paige had Chris to love her and stand by her.Wendy’s old way of dealing with Paige just would not work anymore.To illustrate, in the past, if Paige felt wronged, she had to find a quiet place or hide in her room to cry silently. However, things were different now. If Paige was sad or felt wronged, she could go to Chris, who was quite protective of her.Sierra furrowed her brows, silently praying in her heart that Paige would not go to Chris and pour her heart out. Otherwise, if Chris got angry, he would not spare Wendy.

Wendy blinked back tears as she looked at Sierra. "Mom… We all know Dad is still young, takes good care of himself, and has some charm. He's also got money, and he's the in-law of the Jewells. There are plenty of young and pretty women out there pursuing him. If you were to die, you'd be making space for other women. When your time comes, you'd be nothing but a pile of dirt, and my dad? He'll be holding a young and beautiful wife, maybe even the son he's always wanted… He'd be the winner in life, but what about you?" Sierra said.Looking at her daughter, Wendy nodded in agreement. Sierra was right."Mom… Once a man's heart strays, there's no way to bring him back," Sierra continued. As she said that, she thought of Chris, and her heart ached. Chris was like that. Once his heart wandered, nothing could bring him back. She watched as the person she loved drifted further and further away."Mom… I don't want you and Dad to get a divorce, but if Dad insists, you need to be prepared

Chris held Paige close in his arms, and she stayed there obediently.In reality, they had just finished the deed, both covered in sweat, making their embrace sticky and uncomfortable. In the past, Chris would have taken Paige for a shower, but this time, he thought what the young girl needed more than anything was his embrace."Can you feel my love?" Chris asked, lowering his head to the person in his arms.Paige blushed but still nodded shyly, her voice barely audible. “Yeah.”Satisfied, Chris held her even tighter, and she leaned closer into his embrace.Her reaction tugged at Chris's heart. He was typically a cold and unfeeling person, having lived a life of luxury and privilege since childhood. He had always been indifferent, seemingly devoid of warmth and compassion for others. He had never sympathized with anyone because they could not move him. However, Paige, was the first person he had ever felt genuine concern for. He felt sad for her not receiving the love and care
