Seven Days Left to End This Marriage Chapter 8
After the truth was revealed, Natania escaped from the Gilmore residence and stood in the pouring rain, pounding on my door the entire night.At last, I couldn't take it anymore and yanked the door open in annoyance.Her eyes were swollen red, and her hunger strikes had left her cheekbones sunken, ruining her pretty features."I'm so sorry, Leon. I didn't know the truth would be like that. Why didn't you tell me back then?"She wiped away her tears, her voice filled with regret. Still, there was no hiding the accusing note in her tone as she asked me that question."I did tell you, but you never listened."On the day of our wedding, I had explained that I wasn't the murderer. I had used every bit of my energy to clarify my innocence, yet nobody had been willing to listen. To Natania, I had simply been making up excuses."The one-month cooling-off period is over, so we can get our divorce finalized now."I no longer held any hope for Natania. All I wanted was to get my divorce c

I let out a long sigh. "Mr. and Mrs. Sander, the police conducted a thorough investigation back then and found sufficient evidence to prove I wasn't the killer. I almost lost my life that day as well. What else could you possibly want from me?"I no longer harbored any expectations of my parents, nor did I waste any breath trying to explain myself as I had in the past. They were taken aback, clearly unprepared for the sudden change in how I addressed them. My mother was the first to recover, her lips curling in contempt. "Who knows if you bribed someone to fake that evidence? Did you think you would gain our sympathy by injuring yourself? That car was perfectly fine—why would it suddenly skid? Someone must have tampered with it!"I didn't even want to look at them anymore."No matter what I say, you won't believe me. Since I'm no longer part of the Sander family and no longer your son, you can have me arrested if you're so certain of my guilt."As soon as I finished, my fathe

The night Jonathan had his accident, I was also hospitalized in the ICU. When I regained consciousness, I was immediately informed of Wendy's decision to marry Natania off to an elderly man.Hence, I made a deal with Wendy. She would give me three years to have a child with Natania, and if I succeeded, the marriage to Mr. Silane would be called off.Upon receiving my confirmation, Natania slumped back into her seat, all her energy drained. "I don't want to marry an old man! Mom, how could you sacrifice me for the sake of the Gilmore family business?" she wailed. To Wendy, Natania's protest was a challenge to her authority. She retorted coldly, "I already gave my word to Mr. Silane. If it weren't for Leon, you would've been married to him three years ago! Now, you have no other choice."Natania's spirit seemed to shatter. She shot me a look of desperate helplessness, then turned to Samuel. Seizing his sleeve, she said, "Didn't you say you wanted to marry me? Let's elope now! I wi

A divorce agreement stared coldly back at Natania.Her breathing hitched, and she let out a cold laugh before snatching up the pen I offered her. "At least you're aware that your constant pestering over the years has caused me nothing but disgust. Are you betting on the fact that I wouldn't dare sign it? Well, I can't wait to be rid of you!"As she spat those words at me, she signed her name on the agreement with such force the pen nearly tore through the paper. Once finished, she tossed it down with a loud clatter, though her fingers continued to tremble. Beside her, Samuel couldn't contain his delight when he saw her sign the papers. He locked his fingers tightly with Natania's and cried out, "Nat, this means I can finally stand proudly by your side!"I watched the pair for a moment, absorbing their expressions before standing up. "Mdm. Gilmore, I failed to fulfill the promise I made to you three years ago. Don't worry. From now on, I won't interfere in Natania's life anymore.

I wasn't the least bit surprised to hear Natania say that.Once she finished spitting out her harsh words, she turned to leave, deliberately ramming her shoulder into mine as she passed. Silence returned to the living room. I sloppily patched myself up, and I had only just finished when the doorbell rang. An anonymous parcel had arrived specifically for me.Upon opening it, I discovered a pregnancy test stick and medical report. Both belonged to Natania.My fingers trembled slightly as I picked up the stick; the two bright red lines stabbed into my eyes.A few minutes later, a message from Samuel arrived."Mr. Sander, did you receive my gift? Even a touch from you is enough to make Natania feel disgusted for three days straight, yet she's as passionate as a burning fire when she's with me. "You're clearly the one who resembles Jonathan most, so how is it that you can't even compare to me as a substitute?"For a long while, I sat there in a daze. Pain radiated from my fing

"Nat, didn't you say that Leon never visits Jon on his death anniversary? Why is he suddenly here?" Samuel spoke up from beside Natania, his fingers tightly interlocked with hers. Then, as if he had just realized something, he plastered a look of terror on his face."Could it be that because I look so much like Jon, he's come here specifically to kill me?""That's bullshit!"Fury surged within me at the way Samuel was deliberately twisting the truth. I lost control and threw a punch at his face. In the next second, however, I was pinned to the ground by Natania's bodyguards.I raised my head to stare at her in shock.She scowled at me, her gaze frosty. "Sam is right. You deserve a beating for daring to act out in front of Jon."As she spoke, she accepted a wooden bat from a bodyguard and smashed it against my knee.With a sharp, sickening crack, my kneecap shattered, sending me crashing to the ground before Jonathan's grave. My face drained of color as pain consumed me. "Y
