Brandon spoke evenly. “Zoe had surgery the next day. I only found out how serious her condition was the night before. Iris was drunk, crying over it. I pulled an all–nighter to get everything sorted before her

surgery.

“Iris and Zoe both wanted to keep the affected organ. But the doctor and Daniel feared they wouldn’t remove all the damaged tissue. They warned it might come back, so they pushed for a full removal.

“The patient wanted to preserve her quality of life. Her family just wanted her to survive. When it comes down to it, the patient’s choice should always come first.

“Mostly, I hated seeing Iris upset,” Brandon said plainly. “And yeah, I felt for Zoe. I used to have feelings for her. I hope she stays healthy and lives happily with Daniel.”

Yvette hung her head. Her chest felt heavy and tight, tangled in quiet sorrow.

Brandon’s tone hardened. “Yvette, think about it. With my money and influence, I could’ve forced Zoe to marry me if I’d wanted to. I could’ve pressured her family, manipulated their weaknesses, and made her mine.”

He tilted his head back and breathed out bitterly, a helpless smirk tugging at his lips. “Love is wanting only one person. Liking someone is just wanting them to be happy. That’s how I moved on so easily. And believe it or not, I forgot that bracelet was there.”

Yvette stared at her lap. She dug her nails into her palms and murmured, “What about me?”

Brandon turned to her, his gaze lingering on her exhausted face. “I love you. Do you believe me?”

Yvette’s mind was chaotic. She couldn’t bring herself to trust him.

A cold, empty smile tugged at Brandon’s mouth. Disappointment washed over him, and his tone turned sharp. “Yvette, have you seen none of my love for you? Do you really think it’s all an act?”

Yvette stayed quiet.

“Say something.” Brandon’s voice was low and firm.

Yvette flinched. The words spilled out before she could hold them back. “I thought you were

faking it.”

“You thought?” Brandon let out a bitter scoff, feeling disappointed. “That’s just another excuse to leave me.”

Guilt twisted in Yvette’s chest.

That was never the real reason. She could’ve lived with the thought that he didn’t love her.

But she couldn’t bear the idea of him resenting her for being infertile.

“If you’re set on believing I’ve been faking this, then I won’t bother pretending anymore.” Brandon stood up and tossed the jewelry box straight into the trash bin. His voice turned icy. “But I’m not signing those divorce papers. You’re stuck with me.”

With that, he walked out of the walk–in closet in long strides.

Tears welled up in Yvette’s eyes.

He doesn’t want a divorce?

How could being with him ever count as settling?

If his feelings for me are real, will he mind that I can’t have children?

Yvette sat alone in the closet for a long while, drowning in messy thoughts.

Eventually, hunger got to her. She left the room and headed downstairs.

It was two in the morning. The dining room’s crystal chandelier was dimmed low, casting harsh shadows across Brandon’s sharp features.

He sat alone at the table. A steaming bowl of seafood pasta sat in front of him, paired with a cup of warm milk.

Yvette paused at the staircase, twisting her nightgown between her fingers.

He’d told her he was done pretending earlier. Then what was this?

“What are you standing there for? The pasta will go cold.” Brandon lifted his head, his voice deep and rigid.

Yvette bit her lower lip and slowly walked over.

As she drew closer, she noticed his own utensils were untouched. He hadn’t made anything for

himself–only for her.

Her heart squeezed tight at the sight.

She pulled out a chair and sat down gently. The rich seafood aroma filled her nose.
