Seeing how much she enjoyed the food made me feel a bit surprised.

This little girl's tastes are just like mine.

I love eating shrimp, but peeling them is a hassle and makes my hands greasy.

When Martin and I were dating, he always peeled them for me.

Even now, he hasn't changed.

He placed the peeled shrimp in my dish, but when he saw Pomelo also loved shrimp, I pushed the plate towards her.

Martin's face visibly darkened, but perhaps because Pomelo was still young, he just pursed his lips and said nothing.

After dinner, I started urging Martin to leave.

After all, the cameras would be on tomorrow.

I didn't want anyone to know about my relationship with Martin.

Martin refused to leave, so I hardened my tone, "If you stay here, do you want me to end up on tomorrow's trending searches?"

Martin pressed his thin lips together and firmly told me, "Gloria, I came here to tell you that no matter what, I won't agree to a divorce."

Before I could respond, he grabbed his coat and left the apartment.

"Child...baby..."

Around one or two in the morning, I woke up from a nightmare, drenched in sweat.
