    “Are you stupid? There’s no way for us to be together. Go now. At least if you go back to your hometown, you can live safely. Here, you’ll end up homeless and begging on the streets. Even the beggars would bully you.”

    “How could I be a beggar when I have you?”

    “Why can’t you understand what I’m saying?” Vanessa was extremely anxious. “My parents will never agree to me being with you. In their eyes and hearts, there’s only Nathan. So there’s no way for us. I can’t protect you, and I can’t win against Nathan.”

    Vanessa was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

    “Alright, I’ll go, I’ll go. Don’t worry,” Evander agreed immediately when he saw how upset she was.

    This woman really is both foolish and kind–hearted!

    The next day.

    After giving Kurt a check–up, Vanessa kept a close eye on the news on her phone.

    As soon as Nathan issued a public apology with Susanna, she would immediately take a cab to the Powell Group.

    But she waited for a long time and still didn’t see the public apology

    letter.

    She fell into deep thought.

    Last night, Nathan had made it very clear when he left: he told her toe to the Powell Group the next day to handle the divorce.

    Given that, even if the public apology hadn’t been released yet, she should still go.

    Otherwise, Nathan would suspect that she didn’t want the divorce

    anymore.

    So, after asking for leave for Kurt, she took a cab straight to the Powell Group.

    In the hospital.

    “Nate, it was my fault about what happened to my sister. I shouldn’t have agreed to let Jenny frame her. I was out of my mind. I’m sorry.”

    “It’s all Jenny’s fault. She forced me because my sister took the director position that was supposed to be hers. She held a grudge and was always thinking of revenge. Since I was hospitalized, she took advantage of me. Nate, you have to forgive me.”

    “Nate, I did all this because I was so afraid of losing you. It’s because I love you too much.”

    ***

    Susanna clung to Nathan’s hand, crying so hard she could barely breathe.

    Nathan frowned, his face expressionless.

    “Nate, will you still be good to me in the future? You’re all I have!” Susanna asked pitifully.

    “Don’t worry, I will” Nathan’s mind shed with the image of Vanessa’s bright little face, and he felt irritated. He replied

    perfunctorily, “Take care of yourself. I’m going to work.”

    He turned and left.

    “Nate.” Susanna clearly sensed Nathan’s coldness. Ovee with anger and anxiety, she shouted and fainted.

    Nathan had just reached the door when he had to stop and turn back toward Susanna.

    Because Susanna had undergone surgery and had been emotionally unstable in the detention center, she had already fainted from crying

    several times.

    Nathan truly pitied her. He paid enough fines to bail her out.

    After all, they grew up together. Even if she made mistakes, he couldn’t just ignore her.

    When Vanessa arrived at the Powell Group, the receptionist told her that Nathan wasn’t in the office!

    Her heart sank. After waiting for an hour, she finally had no choice but

    to call Nathan.

    “Who is this?” Nathan looked at his phone, which disyed the word ‘Wife,‘ but when he answered, he deliberately spoke with cold

    arrogance.

    Hearing his distant and indifferent tone, Vanessa pressed her lips together and said calmly, “Nathan, it’s me, Vanessa.”

    “What is it?” He frowned.

    Vanessa replied coldly, “You said it yourselfst night. Have you forgotten?”

    Nathan said impatiently, “Vanessa, I have things to do today. I don’t have time.”

    “No time?” Vanessa sneered. “Your secretary can handle the public apology. How long could it possibly take to get the divorce certificate? Are you stalling on purpose?”

    Nathan grew angry, his hand unconsciously clenching into a fist. “Vanessa, don’t tter yourself. If it weren’t for Grandma, I never would have married you. I’ve always wanted a divorce, so why would I stall? Now Susanna is sick, and I care about her. I have to take care of her. If you really want a divorce,e find me at the hospital.”

    With that, he hung up abruptly.

    Vanessa let out a coldugh and headed straight for the hospital.

    The more things dragged on like this, the less she could afford to dy. She had to settle things quickly!

    Just as she had imagined, Nathan couldn’t let go of Susanna. It was only the second day, and he had already bailed her out!

    “Come on, be good, open your mouth.” When Vanessa arrived at the hospital room, Nathan was feeding Susanna nutritious porridge, his face full of tenderness. After each spoonful, he would gently wipe the corners of her mouth with a tissue, caring for her as a loving husband would for his cherished wife.
