Ivan looked at me. His lips moved, but he did not say anything.
We had been together for thirteen years. So I understood his every movement and expression. Now it meant that he was in a difficult position and hesitant, not knowing what to say.
Suddenly, I regretted asking him here.
Morley walked over and naturally held onto Ivan's arm. "Ivan, you told me that you would tell her the truth within a week. Today is the eighth day. Since you didn't say it, I will say it for you. She just splashed my face with coffee like this. How can you marry a shrew?"
"Morley, you go back first. I will deal with this." Ivan glanced at her gently.
Morley said yes and then gave me a glance before turning to leave.
Ivan came over to hold my hand and rudely pulled me out. When we reached the car, he pushed me in and then sat down.
The moment the car door closed, I suddenly collapsed. Tears streamed down my face, and my chest hurt so much that it was about to split.
He lit a cigarette impatiently and started smoking. I almost choked to death. He realized that something was wrong with me and immediately put out the cigarette. He said, "As you can see, all of this is true. It's just that I can't bring myself to say it as you have paid a lot for our family. Let's just make everything clear since you've known it. It's better this way."
I looked at his face through the tears. Suddenly, I found that the past thirteen years didn't change him much. If there was anything changed, that would be his temperament. He was more mature and stable, and more attractive to women.
As for me, I subconsciously looked at the rearview mirror, only to see both a saggy and sallow face. I put on makeup today, but it still couldn't cover the heavy eye shadows.
The moment I saw myself, I knew that I had lost.
"Stop crying." Seeing me keep crying, he suddenly became agitated. "You are highly educated. Why do you look like a peasant when encountering a thing like this?"
I suddenly wanted to ask him what he wanted me to do. Should I be magnanimous and pretend that nothing happened?
"Reina, since we've been here I'll give you half of the shares. After all, it's my fault. Let's get a divorce." He looked at me silently for a while and said.
His words hurt me a lot. I felt so painful that I almost suffocated.
In the past two years, our relationship was not as close as before. As his company was becoming bigger, he had meetings and negotiations about projects every day. I took care of my child alone at home, responsible for everything big and small at home. Each time he got home after eleven o'clock, I was very tired. So we just went to sleep and did nothing. However, there were also good days between us when we were young. We were once the most important and indispensable people to each other. But now, he wanted to divorce me.
Was he still the man who said he wanted to take care of me and spend the rest of his life with me?
Tears flowed out of my eyes and my vision blurred. I looked at Ivan, wanting to see from his eyes if he still loved me.
He impatiently smoked a cigarette and said nothing to me after that. He drove directly to the kindergarten gate and whispered, "Go pick up the child first. We'll talk about it when we get home."
I looked at the time and found that we were more than an hour late today. There were no children waiting for their parents to pick them up at the school gate. I called the teacher, who said that Jesse was in his office and let me go in to pick him up.
As I walked towards the kindergarten, I thought about things between Ivan and me. He just divorced me. How exactly did we end up being here? I thought that talking with a mistress was something only happening in a drama, but I didn't expect it to occur in my life.
