She could never forgive these past actions.


    However, in the hush of the hospital ward, thepany of this cheerful and unfamiliar girl felt


    comforting. Even though Loraine didn’t know her well, she felt an urge to share her emotions.


    Her family would worry if she shared this with them, and mentioning it to her best friend Jennie would


    only result in a direct confrontation with Marco.


    Cayson was out of the question too.


    As she considered all her options, she had finally decided that the unfamiliar patient in the same ward


    as her was the perfectpanion to share her thoughts with at that moment.


    Loraine found it hard to find a starting point. After a moment’s pause, she said softly, “Actually… I was


    his wife.”


    The little girl’s eyes sparkled immediately. She grinned, triumphantly saying, “I knew it!”


    But her joy was short-lived as Loraine continued, “But we’re divorced now.”


    The smile on the little girl’s face froze as she struggled to piece together Loraine’s story. She eximed


    in frustration, “Is Keely the reason for your separation?”


    Loraine merely responded with a bitter smile, not denying it.


    Indeed, Keely yed a significant role in their growing apart, but their marriage had been marked by


    disappointment and growing indifference over three years.


    Upon hearing this, the Little girl’s face flushed with anger. From her sickly pallor emerged a fiery


    indignation as she proimed, “Indeed, a good man is hard to find! I thought he cared for you deeply


    based on his actions. But who would’ve guessed he was involved with another woman all along! Such


    a man can’t be trusted!”


    The girl who had been enthusiastically rooting for their reunion now vehemently advised Loraine


    against rekindling her rtionship with


    A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y


    Marco. She said harshly, “Miss, you’re so gorgeous. You can have anyone you desire. Don’t waste


    yourself on this unworthy man. He doesn’t deserve you! Tell me what you Look for in a man. I’ll find you


    someone much better!”


    Caught off guard, Loraine shook her head and replied, “I have no interest in falling in love again.”


    The girl’s face tightened with anger as she dered, “That’s uneptable! Did he leave you scarred?


    Should I teach this Keely a lesson to help you Let off some steam?”


    “No, thanks!” Loraine quickly interjected, followed by a sigh.


    “Truthfully, my reasons for not being with him don’t solely revolve around Keely.”

    Though she held on to the anger from the day’s events, she had found tranquility and had thought


    things through.


    If Keely was truly engaged to a deceased friend of Marco’s, then there was no romantic connection


    between them. At most, Keely might be clinging onto Marco, purposely stirring up trouble to incite


    misunderstandings.


    Loraine had figured this out, yet a hurdle remained within her heart.


    Discussing her history with Marco felt akin to reopening old wounds.


    “I’m still trying toprehend my rtionship with him.” She paused mid-sentence, and then


    proceeded, “From the moment I fell in Love with
