Chapter 36


    Chapter 36


    Moira had the maid bring the wheelchair downstairs. She carefully descended one step at a time,


    holding onto the railing. Her legs were almost healed, but the doctor advised her to take it easy to


    recover faster.


    Once downstairs, Moira settled back into the wheelchair, Aiken pushed her out of the vi. Seeing


    Moira, Alfie finally stopped shout


    He’d been yelling downstairs for almost ten minutes, and his throat was starting to hurt. “Moira..” his


    voice was a bit h o ars e


    Since the wedding, Alfie hadn’t touched Moira. When they were together, he wasn’t big on physical


    contact. They’d been together for over two years, but they rarely kissed. Sometimes, if they hadn’t


    seen each other in a while, they might hug. He used to be okay with that, but now that their


    rtionship was in trouble, he suddenly missed Moira’s touch. He reached out to hug her.”


    But before his hands could touch her, Alken forcefully pushed him away. Moira maneuvered the


    wheelchair backward.


    “Mr. Jimenez…” Alfie blushed seeing Aiken’s angry expression.


    Aiken red at him. “You can talk to her, but don’t touch her.” With that, he shot Alfie a fierce look


    and then turned to walk back into the vi, heading to the pond to feed the fish.


    Alfie hadn’t really looked at Moira in a long time. Under the dim night light, he gazed at Moira in the


    wheelchair, He had a lot he wanted to say, but he didn’t know where to start. “Moira, your leg still


    bothering you?”


    Moira wasn’t in the mood for small talk. “What do you want?” She tilted her head slightly, her eyes


    icy, her voice even colder.


    Alfie felt a lump in his throat, like he wanted to cry. “Moira, I know I messed up. I know I did a lot of


    wrong things in the past. I’ll cut off all contact with ire from now on! Can’t we give it another


    shot?”


    Hearing this, Moira chuckled. “Don’t make meugh! I don’t want to cheat on my husband. Have


    you forgotten I’m married to Bary now?”


    Alfie palled, but quickly regained hisposure. “I know you’re just trying to make me mad, right? I


    really realize I messed up this time. Moira, we’ve loved each other for so many years, you can’t just


    move on so quickly!”


    Alfie and Moira had known each other since they were kids, for twelve years now. Alfie couldn’t


    believe Moira had moved on in just a month.


    “If you want to deny reality, go ahead. But Bary and I are really married. We have the marriage


    certificate to prove it.” Moira paused. She looked at Alfie, a cold smirk on her lips, and said loudly


    and clearly, “And I really don’t love you anymore!”


    Alfie felt like he’d been hit with a sledgehammer, His body started to sway, like he might pass out.


    He looked at Moira’s cold smile, then his expression turned dark. “I don’t believe you! You can’t fool


    me! You’ve loved me all these years. And if you’re really married to Bary, why are you still living


    here? Don’t try to trick me, Moira!


    “I know you’re trying to get back at me! It’s okay, I deserve it. But Moira, if you keep up with this


    charade, that’s just too much. Get a divorce from Bary quickly, and then we’ll get married again.


    I’ll give you a wedding even bigger and fancier than before!


    “Moira, please don’t be mad anymore, okay?”


    Alfie crouched in front of her, wanting to touch her cheek, like before. But to his surprise, Moira


    turned her head away from his hand, and his thumb brushed against her hair.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
