Chapter 111


    Ronald followed her eyes and saw the lipstick mark o n his shirt. He could not find a word to respond.


    "What are you thinking, Ronald? You are the person in charge of the operation in Grudin North. Every


    action o f yours is under the scrutiny of the media. You will screw up your life if you are not careful.


    Besides, you know what will happen if your wife finds out, don’t you? She will run riot and you will never


    know peace again."


    He sat down on the edge of the bed with a serious look in his eyes. "I have taken that into


    consideration, actually."


    "Then what is the matter between you and that woman? Are you just having fun, or did she seduce


    you?"


    "Neither of them, Raine. I love her." Ronald let out a sigh.


    "You what? Are you crazy?” Raine shook her head in shock.


    "I am not crazy. On the contrary, I know more than ever what I am doing.”


    "Ipletely don’t get it." She never knew that her brother was such a person.


    He used to be a man of honor, a responsible family and a perfect man in her eyes.


    But now...


    "It is easy to understand. You don''t need a reason to fall in love-it is that simple. You will surely


    understand my situation if you have ever loved someone before."


    Mark came to her mind, and she could not tell why.


    She was engaged, and he was married; but she still could not stop her urge to see him.


    Otherwise, she would not have gone out of controlst night.


    She pulled her wandering mind back. "What’s next? What is your n? You can''t hide it forever. It will


    be toote if things explode in your face."


    His family would break apart, and his future would be ruined.


    "I have thought over it. I will find a suitable time to ask Yvette for a divorce."


    Ronald spoke of what he had been thinking for a long time atst. "But what about you? What are you


    going t o do?"


    "What do you mean?" Raine was a little puzzled.


    "You might have been engaged, but are you happy with yourself?"


    Ronald''s words hit where it hurt her the most. Raine said nothing because she did not even know how


    she felt.


    But one thing was certain: the engagement had not brought her happiness and joy.


    She just felt tired and found a random man to marry. That was all.


    There were no feelings between her and her fiance. They were more than strangers, more intimate


    than friends, but more distant than lovers.


    This rtionship was neither here nor there. Itcked enthusiasm and passion, and her heart was like


    a pool of stagnant water. She was marrying for the sake of it.


    Ronald was sure of himself when Raine said not a word. "You are in a much better position than me.


    So you have to figure out what is best for you. By the way, do you know Mark will return to Santabaca


    tomorrow?”


    Raine was startled for a second before shaking her head. Mark had never told her about it.


    "More rescuers have arrived in Grudin North. You have not fully recovered yet; staying here is not


    going t o help. Return to Santabaca with them. Besides, New Year''s Day is just around the corner.


    Spend New Year''s Day at home, and then you may report back to work after that." "Okay," Raine
