The birth of Cecilia's child was a streak of light in my heart that was filled with darkness.
At least, Cindy was not that evil to harm Cecilia. The baby in her womb was safely delivered. Since I could not have a child of my own, I would treat Cecilia's child kindly like she was my biological child.
I was in a good mood and walked briskly.
I walked to the condominium’s entrance. When I was just about to enter, a car drove over here. I took a peek and was startled.
The car looked familiar, so did the car plate number. It was Theo's car!
Before I knew it, I lifted my leg and was about to enter the condominium with a gloomy face.
When the door was about to close, a big hand grabbed i t. "Wanda, do you really hate to see me that much?"
It seemed that I could not avoid him even if I wanted t o. I stopped walking, turned around, and stared at him coldly. "You're right. I don't want to see you."
Theo was stunned. His face immediately sunk.
"Theo..." I took a deep breath. I was trying so hard to ignore the radiating pain that was coming from my
heart. "I'm tired. When you have time, let's get a divorce."
If someone asked me whether I was still in love with Theo, I would not know the answer to that. I only knew that I was exhausted, both physically and mentally. The happiest and saddest moments in my whole life were with this same man. The moment I lost my child, I knew I could no longer put up with it anymore.
I held the bag in my hand tightly. "Theo, as I was deeply in love with you previously, I could stand the fact that you didn't love me back. And I could endure your ambiguous relationship with Cindy. I could even put up with you sleeping with her. I thought that as long as you loved our child, one day you'd put your mind fully on your family.
"But our child is gone now. All the wonderful fantasies that I had for the future have all been shattered into pieces. There’s no way I can continue to endure a life like that.” I could not help but cry.
