Chapter 1302 I Don't Have T"Hey, Mr. Clemens, you doing okay?" Olivia asked, her eyes full of concern as she looked at Micah. She was sharp and quickly figured out what Micah was up to. No surprise he brought her to Nightfall; he was trying to get under Sadie's skin. "What's there to be wrong with me?" Micah shrugged, trying to act all nonchalant. "Con, let's grab a drink!" He walked into his private booth, pushed open the door, and bam, memories of Sadie hit him like a ton of bricks. The familiar surroundings brought back a flood of emotions.
"Maybe you need salone ttonight," Olivia suggested gently. "How about I head out?" "Take Ms. Graham home," Micah said quietly.
"Yes, sir." Andrew got two attendants to escort Olivia.

Olivia followed the attendants out, glancing back at Micah until the door shut behind her.
Andrew sighed, thinking Olivia was something special.
Micah plopped down on the sofa, fiddling with the lighter on the coffee table. The silver lighter clicked open and shut in his hand, the tiny flflickering in the dim light, mirroring his tangled thoughts. Andrew sent the manager away and opened a bottle of wine, letting it breathe in silence.
"Do you think she's changed since she went back to the James family?" Micah suddenly asked, his voice heavy with sadness. "Or maybe this Sadie isn't the sSadie from before? Just someone who looks like her." Andrew felt a pang of sadness. He got it; the Sadie now was nothing like the Sadie from back then. She used to be quirky and sometimes unsure, but she always loved Micah deeply.
She fought her family's pressure for him, found the courage to start a new life with him, and wore the veil and ring to marry into the Clemens family.
When they were in love, they were inseparable, only had eyes for each other.
But now, no matter what Micah did, he couldn't get her attention. She was always so cold, so distant. Even when they were close, it felt like there was a huge emotional gap. He tried everything to bridge it but always cup short. "Maybe she never loved me," Micah's voice was low and sad. "Otherwise, how could she be so different?" "Honestly, if you think about it, it makes sense," Andrew said gently. "Two years ago, our Clemens family hurt her badly, and then there was Brenda's death." "Yeah, the Clemens family wronged her, so I've been trying my best to make it up to her," Micah said, feeling helpless as he thought about the past. "And I've never cheated on her. In all my years, she's the only woman I've ever loved, but she..." At this, it felt like a thorn pierced Micah's heart deeply.

"I gave her a chance, asked if she was forced, but she didn't answer" Micah recalled the incident, gritting his teeth. th"Let's not talk about that.
I'm not chasing it, but she's still so cold to me."
"Take it slow. Give her stime." om Andrew advised.
"I don't have time," Micah's voice suddenly turned somber. "How much longer do I have to live? I just want, before I die, for my family to be together again!"
