Chapter 377 Let’s Break Up
“Pierre…” Selena called out softly. “Let’s break up.”
Immediately, Selena felt as though her head was hit by something hard. In the exact same position, she sat there for an entire minute while gazing at Pierre.
Unable to look her in the eyes, Pierre sat down at the other end of the couch, as though he was deliberately trying to maintain a distance away from her. “You can take the children. I’ll tell Grandpa that the children will be with you. From today onward, let’s not keep in touch,” said Pierre slowly.
With her eyes welled up with tears, Selena tried hard to stop them from rolling down her cheeks. When she turned around, she quickly wiped the tears off the corner of her eyes. “Pierre Fowler, do you mean what you said?”
Clearly, she had never expected that Pierre would ask for a breakup, as they were in the midst of preparing for their wedding. Together, we have three children, and after all that we’ve been through, when we finally get to be together again, he asks for a break up now? I understand that he may be scared of me getting hurt, but still, this reason is totally absurd!
Lowering his head, Pierre had never felt this defeated. If he couldn’t even protect his own son, what else could he be capable of? In the past, he felt he was invincible, but now, he felt so vulnerable; he was better off living on his own for the rest of his life without worries.
“Yes, I’m dead serious.” After considering it for a long while, Pierre finally gave his answer.
Upon hearing the word ‘yes’, Selena felt her heart sink, as though it had been weighed down by a boulder; it was unbearably painful. Sniveling, Selena asked, “Are you worried that you can’t protect us? Or are you worried that I’ll become a hindrance to you?”
Gazing at Pierre intensely, Selena had never seen him in such a despondent state; even the usual light in his eyes had dimmed.
“Selena…”
