Chapter 139 Heartbreak and Divorce Struggle in Marital Crisis

I remembered the past tragedy and the pitiful and miserable appearance of my parents. Suddenly, tears uncontrollably streamed down my face. I always felt that it was my fault that caused them to suffer because they gave birth to me, and my foolishness in love brought them into a miserable situation.

When I was crying, it felt like my ability to speak was impaired, so when I stood there holding the photo and crying, I couldn't utter a few complete sentences.

After being reborn, it was the first time I cried so sadly in front of Frederic. Through teary eyes, I saw him stand up and walk toward me. After hesitating for a moment, he cupped my cheeks with his palm and gently wiped away my tears with his thumb.

He sighed and asked, "Why are you crying?"

"You said we were getting divorced, and I agreed!" I struggled to restrain myself, choking back tears as I asked, "What else do you want? You can at least give me less money, no need to... use my parents to threaten me, right? After all, they are still your parents-in-law!"

"It was you who said you wanted a divorce," Frederic corrected me, his voice sounding somewhat displeased. "I have never mentioned divorce, but how many times have you brought it up?"

"I filed for divorce because I knew you wanted a divorce!" I looked up at him and asked, "Don't you love Emilia? Don't you plan on giving her a future? If we divorce earlier, we won't have to end up with an ugly outcome."

Frederic lowered his head and looked at me. His eyes were very dark and always cold when looking at people.

At that time, he was also looking at me like this. Although he kept saying that he didn't want a divorce, he never denied his feelings for Emilia.

"You don't have to say anything, and you don't have to use these photos to threaten me. I agree to leave with nothing, anyway my parents can support me." Because of Frederic's silence, I felt heartbroken once again. I didn't want to stay here anymore. After saying these words, I ran back to my room to find my coat and prepare to leave.

As I changed my shoes at the entrance, I glanced at Frederic who was still standing in the living room. With a nasal voice, I said to him, "When you give me the divorce agreement, please give me these photos as well. You can also relax."

I thought, "Let's consider it as a transaction."

After I hurriedly left the Emerald Apartments, I made a phone call to Marcel, asking him to come and pick me up.

Half an hour later, I took a car back to Maple Villa.

"Mrs. Hudson, you were dressed too lightly. You would catch a cold," Marcel was very considerate today.

"It's nothing," I sniffed, the car was warm, but my hands and feet remained cold. What was even colder was my heart.

When I got back home, I quickly went to take a hot bath to warm up my body.

When my body warmed up, I wrapped myself in pajamas and checked the unread messages and missed calls on my phone.

In the four-person chat group on my phone, Greta kept mentioning me: "Syl, has Frederic fallen in love with you? He just carried you away like that!"

Cecelia: "I also thought it was outrageous, it was so surprising."

Janessa, on the other hand, sent several emojis expressing astonishment.

Greta: "I ended my friendship with Gabriela. She found out about your relationship with Frederic and deliberately invited me to hang out. I don't know if it was to provoke me or to provoke you." Yesterday, I almost got into a fight with her.

Cecelia: "Gabriela was not a good person. You should stay away from her."

Greta: "Yes, we have broken up!"

Greta: "Syl, where were you? Did Frederic bring you back?"

Then, they chatted about gossip for a long time, and they didn't stop until 2 o'clock in the morning.

I had a headache from watching it. Did Frederic fall in love with me? I forced a bitter smile and sent a message to Greta, telling her about Frederic getting hold of my dad's photos.

Then I received a message from Ruben: "Sylvia, Merry Christmas! Do you have time to hang out?"
