Chapter 556


    Her eyes caught the shimmer of unshed tears in his. She wanted to tell him that it wasn''t like what he said, but before she could,


    he abruptly pulled away from her.


    With a resounding m, he shut the car door beside her. He didn''t head for the driver''s seat. Instead, he stood outside, dialed a


    number on his cell phone.


    She watched him silently. They were only separated by a car door, yet it felt as if a vast chasm had opened between them.


    He said she valued their child more than him. How could shepare the two?


    The child was innocent, so of course she would protect it more. He used her of having no faith in him, but the truth was that

    She ignored Mike''s words. She leaned against the car window and watched as Elijah''s figure grew smaller and smaller until it


    was almost impossible to see him clearly. Only then did she turn around.


    "Why are you doing this to each other?" Mike sighed as he stopped at a red light. "Do you think you''ll be happier without him?"


    “My head hurts." She took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

    “You should rest when we get home. You''re still recovering, and | shouldn''t have brought you out." Mike said, "And | spoke to


    Adrian. He doesn''t me you for anything. Don''t let his mother''s words get to you."


    Dinner.

    Violette had fought again.
