Trevon was miserable and torn!
He wondered why God had made him suffer the pain of his family hurting each other again and again. It was about his mother before. Now it was Phil’s turn. He felt desperately upset among the endless fights.
He stood there, pale and weak, and thought of it, again and again, then he decided to talk with Cara for the last time. If Cara refused to take his advice and insisted on hurting Anya and the baby, he had no other choice but to betray her.
Years ago, Cara threatened to divorce him if he dared to get involved in it. So, he missed the last chance to see his mother before she died. It just broke his heart whenever he recalled it these years.
Now he wasn’t going to let the tragedy happen again. He wanted to fight back and tried every way possible to stop her. Otherwise, his life would be doomed.
Thinking of it, he went over to Cara and fell on his knees in front of her. He hugged her leg and begged sadly, “Cara, please! I beg you. Please don’t do such terrible things, OK?”
He couldn’t remember how many times he had been on his knees in front of her and how many times he had cried in front of her.
Cara was bullheaded and tough. Whenever they fought, she would tell him ‘Kneel down and beg, or I’ll never forgive you.’ and it had become her pet phrase.
As a result, he had become totally obedient to her. He knelt down whenever she requested him to. He had no other choice but to obey and please her. He couldn’t take the divorce because he would get nothing.
He was a loser and didn’t want to be judged by other people. So, he compromised again and again.
But he was willing to kneel down this time because he really wanted her to stop it.
But Cara was disgusted with him and pushed him aside with strength, “Enough!”
“Come off it! Who are you to tell me what to do? Who the hell do you think you are now? You useless loser! Now you want to tell me what to do? Seriously?”
Cara scolded him harshly, then Trevon lowered his eyes and stood up slowly.
She warned him with discontent, “Trevon, I warn you not to stand in my way. You can’t tell Phil about it! Otherwise...”
“Otherwise you’ll divorce me and never forgive me for this life.” Trevon interrupted her. He just couldn’t be more familiar with the words that Cara would say to threaten him.
He looked up at her, “Don’t worry. I won’t interfere or tell him anything.”
Trevon said it and got out of the room. He had to lie to her first to make her believe he would obey her as before. Then, he could seek a chance to tell Phil about it.
Cara had made up her mind to do that terrible thing and he had also made up his mind to stop her.
He wouldn’t care a little bit about it even if she wanted to divorce him.
He would rather get a divorce than live on with the guilt for his mother and son for the rest of his life.
After he got out of the ward, he smoked several cigarettes first to chill out. Then he called Phil.
Phil was still in Anya’s apartment. Anya might be asleep in the room because he didn’t hear a sound inside.
He was making coffee to refresh himself and was about to get back to work.
His life was simple. His primary mission for him was to take good care of Anya. Besides that, he would spend the rest of his time at work. That was all.
He wasn’t interested in any social engagements or entertainment activities.
He lived a colorful life before. To be more exact, the single guys’ lives were full of variety. But it didn’t mean they just fooled around.
They hung out together at the gym, riding horses and racing cars. Besides, they went on vacations in the mountain villas. Anyway, he wouldn’t stay at home like this.
