After a few days of rest, Aveline's complexion had becmuch healthier than before. She no kager looked as weak as before. Alexander muttered, "Indeed, you've always been in good health.
Aveline sneered inwardly but didn't explain. Instead, she took off the coat she was wearing and said. "Mr. Sterling, rest assured, I will abide by the terms of the contract and will not remarry." The divorce agreement was carefully drafted by him, and although it provided her with many material possessions, the clause prohibiting her from remarrying practically cut off all her future prospects.

The contradiction made her feel fearful.
Aveline felt an even stronger pain in her stomach, and the piercing pain seemed to affect every nerve in her body.
