This was absurd. What did she think I am!

My heart was being trampled. Every word she said was like a slow death to me.

"Your love is so amazing and touching that my child and I have to be its sacrifice?"

A trace of guilt flashed across Evelyn's face, so quickly it seemed like an illusion.

"Quinn, you're different. You're still healthy. We have a lot of future ahead of us!"

"It's just one year. Wait for me for a year."

"After a year, if Noah... I'll come back to you with the child."

"You love children so much, you will definitely love me and Noah's child too, right?"

Ha, I felt like laughing in anger.

Had I been too accommodating over the years, so much so that she forgot I was also a normal man, a man with dignity?

She openly cheated on me during our marriage and still expected me to care for her lover's child.

Was I just a big fool?

The room felt stuffy, and I took a deep breath.

"Evelyn, what if I don't agree to the divorce?"

She was stunned, her expression momentarily bewildered. Perhaps she had never considered that I would refuse her request.

After all, in the five years we had been together, I had always complied with her wishes.

She thought for a moment, as if making a firm decision.
