The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 224

Those words weren't just meant for Mathis to see; they were a reminder to herself.

She had long ago accepted the fact that Mathis simply didn't love her.

She knew Mathis would see this short video and assume she couldn't bear to let go of this old laptop and their memories.

Given how greedy and manipulative they were, her next steps would be much easier to execute.

The next day, Bianca took Aveline to the estate to visit Theodore.

She wasn't there to test the waters about Aveline's custody. After all, Mathis had already abandoned his daughter for Cynthia Quinn.

She simply wanted to pay a visit to the old man who had pulled her back from the edge of the cliff when her heart had completely turned to ash.

Whether it was because of Aveline's birth or the peaceful environment, Theodore looked much healthier than he had a year ago.

Theodore held Aveline with a radiant glow, but upon seeing how alarmingly thin Bianca was, his heart ached for her.

She had lost all her relatives, and then she had been forced by his own grandson to flee to a distant, unfamiliar place, surviving entirely on her own.

Thank goodness the girl was resilient. She had managed to push through it all.

"Where do things stand between you and Mathis?"

Bianca picked up the cup of freshly steeped tea a maid had set beside her and took a sip. The flavor was naturally sweet without a hint of bitterness.

She filled him in on the progress of the lawsuit. It was only then that Theodore truly understood that Bianca hadn't just left to heal her wounds; she had left to permanently escape Mathis.

This girl's endurance had once again exceeded his wildest expectations.
