Chapter 382 Am I out of Play
After Ziana finished speaking, she turned away, leaving him only her back.
Boris’ eyes glistened with warmth as he watched her. He turned his head slightly and took a deep breath, but the dull ache in his heart cut like a knife, still making him feel like crying.
He could still hear her pleas echoing in his ears.
She said that he only brought her pain and pleaded with him to let her go.
But… But… Was it really just pain?
He remembered the joyful times. How could she forget them? How could she say it’s only pain?
Boris couldn’t control himself. He looked down and gave a bitter smile, his gaze becoming increasingly blurry.
It wasn’t until the doorbell rang that he hastily rubbed his face and put on his clothes to answer the door.
“Boris!” Steven cheerfully handed him two bags of clothes, winking and whispering, “How’s it going?”
Boris shook his head, a look of disappointment on his face. “What about the food you bought?”
Only then did Steven notice that Boris’ eyes were red, as if Boris had been crying, and he was immediately shocked. “Boris, Boris, your eyes…”
“What about the food?” Boris impatiently interrupted him.
Not daring to provoke Boris, Steven handed over the food, and before he could speak, the door slammed shut.
Boris handed the clothes to Ziana. “The clothes have arrived. Finish getting ready, and let’s go out for a meal.”
He left the bedroom and quickly tidied up outside. In just two minutes, Ziana came out.
“Ziana, the food is still hot,” Boris said gently, “Skipping breakfast isn’t good for your

stomach.”
But Ziana didn’t even look at him. She directly opened the door and locked eyes with
Steven, who was waiting outside.
Steven awkwardly smiled. “Ziana… What a coincidence! Good morning!”
“Move aside!” Ziana’s face was cold, like a thorny rose, and her tone was unusually
sharp.
“Oh, right.” He instinctively tried to make way, but in the next moment, Boris’ voice suddenly came through. “Stop her!”
He hurriedly caught up, cautiously trying to please her. “Have breakfast before you leave, okay?”
Ziana turned her head and looked at him. “I don’t want to eat. Are you going to force me
again?”
Boris fell silent, changed his tone, and said, “Alright, then, don’t eat. How are you going back later? Shall I ask Steven to drive you?”
“You don’t need to worry about it. Right now, all you need to do is make him move out
of the way.” Ziana’s patience was wearing thin.
Steven looked at Ziana, then at Boris, too afraid to interfere.
After a moment, Boris spoke up, “I will find out what happened last night. Steven just
moves out of the way.”
Ziana immediately left without looking back.
Only when her figure completely disappeared did Steven finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Boris walked back to the private room, and he quickly followed. He was full of
confusion. “Boris, last night, didn’t you make love? Why did things not get better but
instead worse? I mean, didn’t you explain the reason for the divorce to her, as I
suggested?”
“I explained,” he sat on the sofa, his face pale, and answered, “She said I brought her
nothing but pain.”
“What?” Steven was stunned.

That was too harsh. No wonder Boris looked so desolate and sad.
He furrowed his brow and said, “No way… How did you explain it to her in the end? Did
you follow my
instructions?”
“Yes.”
“And did you say that the reason for the divorce was to protect her?”
“Yes, I did.”
“How did she react?”
“She said I was arrogant and presumptuous.”
Steven blurted out, “Well, she’s not entirely wrong.”
The room fell silent.
Steven realized what Boris had said and forced a smile. “Well, did you explain the
situation between you and Vivi?”
Boris leaned back on the couch, rubbing his forehead. “Yes, I did.”
He proceeded to narrate the whole ordeal, and with a trembling voice, he said, “She said
she wouldn’t repeat the same mistakes, begged me to spare her. Do I still have a
chance?”
Steven had never imagined that Boris would also have a day when he was troubled and
