"Thalia, why are you causing such a scene now?" he asked, bewildered.

His words made it seem like I was the unreasonable one.

He frowned, studying my face with a puzzled expression.

“You know I’m not an irresponsible man,” Caelan said, his voice firm. “I can’t just abandon Selene and disregard her life and death. Can’t you wait? Once this situation is resolved in ten months, I promise I’ll answer you the best I can.”

I stood still, knowing his affection was all fake.

After loving him for seven years, I finally gave up, only to realize that he was nothing extraordinary.

I shook off his hand, saying, “No need. I hope to see you next time on the way to divorce.”

I pushed through the crowd, leaving Caelan’s bewildered and struggling gaze behind me. After a while, he made a phone call.

“Help me pick up some nutritional supplements. I’ll visit Thalia’s mother in two days.”

Right after paying the fee, the doctor informed me that my mother’s condition remained critical and required two specific medications for treatment.

If she didn’t receive them as soon as possible, her condition could worsen at any moment.

Unfortunately, the hospital couldn’t provide the medication until the next day.
