A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 819

Marley took a look at her for a while without awakening her and then entered into the study.

At 10 o’clock, Sylvie went back in the bedroom, intending to sleep early.

Men were not reliable. However, the baby was of her own. Nourishing the baby was the right thing to do.

When Marley came out of the study, Sylvie was already in bed. Without saying anything, he turned off the light and went directly to bed.

Having been living in two separate places for over a month, He suddenly came to sleep with her, which made Sylvie’s whole body tauten.

After climbing into the bed, Marley armed around Sylvie after lying down in the darkness and said, “Just sleep, Sylvie!”.

Staring at the wall blankly, Sylvie remained silent in darkness and her heart was at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Puzzled by the complex thoughts in her mind for half a night, Sylvie was quite dispirited after getting up. She opened her eyes and met his. Marley’s puffiness was less obvious and he appeared to be refreshed, so he had a good night.

“Morning!” he said.

“Morning!” responded Sylvie lightly.

“Are you going to the company or staying at home?” he asked.

“I’ll stay at home!” answered Sylvie.

“Um, that’s okay.” Marley stood up. “You can take more rest, but don’t forget to have breakfast on time!”

“Ok.” Sylvie stared at Marley’s back blankly when he was washing his face and brushing his teeth after getting up. Since the weather today was bad, the room was still dim even if the curtain was drawn back. The shadow of Marley’s body was partly hidden and partly visible in the early-morning sunlight before she finally closed her eyes.

Sylvie got out of bed slowly and looked at the wall of the bathroom where the sound of flowing water came.

Catching sight of Sylvie sitting near the bedside and staring at the wall of the bathroom, Marley was stunned for a while and then asked, “Sylvie, what’s the matter?”

Sylvie got sober suddenly, turned to him, and said, “Aila is pregnant and Ernie is the father. If you can find him, please tell him about this. If he wants the baby, she won’t have an abortion, but if he doesn’t, she will have the abortion three days later.”

“She is pregnant?” Marley said in surprise.

Looking at Marley with hesitation implied in her eyes, Sylvie then asked, “Are you really invited to dinner yesterday?”

Marley was stunned and then nodded, “Yes!”

“Oh!” his unwillingness to tell the truth really disappointed Sylvie. She then asked directly, “Marley, what do you think that matters the most in marriage? I think it’s cheating!”

Marley looked at her with confusion in his eyes.

“We are going to divorce!” Sylvie said in a low voice, which directly hit his heart.

“What do you mean?”

“I am tired, really tired!” Sylvie answered in a low voice, “I do not want to continue. I do not believe what a man says.”

“Is it because of Ernie?” Marley suddenly realized and said, “You are blaming Marley for making Aila get pregnant. Is that why you transfer your anger to me?”

Sylvie smiled slightly and said with self-deprecating humor, “I don’t deny, but I can’t believe what you say. You actually had a coffee with Jemima yesterday, but you lied to me. I don’t want to quarrel with you. I just want a divorce.” Marley was shocked by the sudden requirements for a divorce and the fact that she mentioned Jemima as well, so he asked, “Did you follow my track?”

Sylvie just smiled, “Whatever! Just think me that way!”

“Sylvie, if you want a divorce, you do not need to look for an excuse for it. Nothing happened between me and Jemima.”

“While, if you didn’t tell a lie, why you lied to me?” she replied.

Marley couldn’t find an answer to the question because she got him. But he then immediately asked with indignation, “Have you ever thought of our child? Do not forget that you are already pregnant. I do not agree with the divorce. And seriously, nothing had happened between Jemima and me. I met her just to settle something. Given the fact that you are pregnant, I do not want you to be angry. That’s why I lied. It's not what you think. I will not divorce you. You should calm down, and so do I. We should talk later.”

Finished talking, Marley slammed the door behind him. Obviously, he’s really angry.

Sylvie sighed to herself.

Was she too sensitive? Or were there too many problems between them?

Their marriage is based not on love. They were connected by marriage. Even if Marley fell in love with her after marriage, but this love didn’t help solve the existing problems. She’s not sure whether she demanded too much, which had made her so tired. She thought Marley was tried too.

Sylvie moved to the Sunshine Residential Area for a rest. She needed to calm down.

Marley hurried to the Sunshine Residential Area, shocked by the news. However, Sylvie refused to open the door, just told him, “I am tired, Marley. I want to be alone for some time.”
