Johanna moved closer and gently hugged Timothy. However, Timothy reached out and held her tightly
in return.

Once Timothy let go, Johanna took off her wedding ring. She had always worn it, so the ring left a faint
mark on her finger.
She ced the ring on the table.
Seeing the toys on the crawling mat, Johanna thought of Asel, who was sound asleep upstairs. That
was the child she had carried for ten months, her most beloved child.
She wanted to take Asel with her, but she couldn''t.
She couldn''t hold Asel, couldn''t kiss her. Every time she saw Asel, she would be reminded of her other
child, and the despair welling up from the bottom of her heart threatened to drown her.
Johanna pursed her lips, whispering, “Let Asel stay with you. If one day you get a girlfriend—”
“Johanna, I only agreed for us to live separately. I didn''t agree to a divorce,” Timothy interrupted her.
Johanna said helplessly, “Let''s not y word games.”
“I''m not ying word games with you,” Timothy rubbed his temples, speaking calmly to Johanna. “It''s
fine if you want to live your own life, but divorce is not an option. Thew stiptes that it''s not
rmended for parents to divorce when their child is under two years old. Before, you kept ignoring
Asel, not holding her. She was very upset, thinking that her mother didn''t like her anymore. Later on,
Asel didn''t even dare to get close to you.”
Johanna remained silent, her eyes cast down.
Timothy spoke again. “You''ve recovered now. Asel was overjoyed because you apanied her out to
y today. How do you expect me to tell her we''re divorced, that you don''t want her anymore?”
“I''m not abandoning her,” Johanna said, “I just can''t afford to take care of Asel.”
“Since you love Asel, we shouldn''t divorce...” He nced at the wedding ring on the table before
resting his gaze on Johanna''s face.
He said softly, “Johanna, I''ve agreed to all your requests. Can you also consider Asel? Even if you
decide to move out, you should answer when Asel calls you, and you shoulde and spend time with
her every weekend.”
In the end, Johanna was persuaded by Timothy and agreed.
After their conversation, Johanna went upstairs to pack her things. Timothy followed her into the
bedroom. “Johanna, you''re going to stay here on the weekends from now on. There''s no need to move
all your things out.”
“I''ll just bring two sets of clothes when Ie over during the weekends,” Johanna said.
Timothy noticed that no matter what he said, Johanna would disregard it. Efficiently, she packed all the
important items, ready to move out at any moment.
Asel waspletely oblivious to what had happened between her mother and father. After waking up,
she clung to Johanna. Usually, she preferred eating on her own, but now she insisted on being fed by
her mother, one bite at a time.
Timothy was feeling downcast, with little to no appetite.
After eating, Timothy saw Johanna ying with Asel in the living room. He picked up his car keys and
headed out.
He stepped into the private room of the club. Just as he finished his ss of iced whiskey, the door was
pushed open again. Armand walked in with a coat draped over his arm.
Timothy picked up an empty ss from the table and poured some wine. “I thought Genevieve wouldn''t
let you go out during New Year.”
“She didn''t want me toe out, but knowing that you were the one who called, she insisted Ie
over.” Armand hung his coat on the rack and sat down on the sofa beside him.
Armand said, “She asked me to keep an eye on you so you don''t drink yourself to death.”
“Your wife''s tongue is quite sharp, isn''t it?” Timothy said helplessly, “I''m just in a bad mood and wanted
to have a few drinks, that''s all.”
Armand picked up his whiskey and took a sip, catching a glimpse of his gloomy face from the corner of
his eye. “After Johanna recovers, she seems to have be much gentler. She can''t even argue with
you like that.”
Timothy bitterly smiled and said, “I''d rather she hit me or vent her anger at me.”
