240 She Doesn't Want Him

Anymore

Horton residence.

Keira’s words didn’t surprise Lewis too much.

She had always been a free-spirited woman.

But Lewis's chest was still clenched tightly, his mouth agape. He wanted to refuse, to say no, to ask her to wait a

little longer for him, and to give him more time. He was sure he could think of a better solution.

But before he could speak, Keira stood up, her gaze fixed on him. “I don’t mean to pressure you, but I've thought

a lot, and this might be the only way.”

Lewis clenched his jaw, squeezing his fists. “Keira, I...”

“You've tried your best, and you chose me. | know that.” Keira looked at him. “But you can’t really watch

her die.”

-Lewis frowned. “I can.”

“You can now,” Keira met his gaze. “But what about the

future?”

Lewis paused.

“You'll feel guilty about her, and this guilt will be forever buried deep in your heart, Lewis. | don’t want you to

bear such pressure.”

The room's light was very dim.

Keira couldn't see the expression on Lewis's face, but she was in a state of dejection, her shoulders drooping

slightly.

She said, word by word, “Lewis, | know how terrible this feeling is.”

For the last twenty-two years, she had lived in guilt toward the Olsen family.

She truly believed it was her existence that prevented Taylor and Mrs. Olsen from being together, and although

she finally left after more than a decade of slaving away for the Olsen family, the weight in her heart never lifted.

Every tshe faced Isla, despite telling herself she wasn't at fault, that she couldn't choose her own birth, she

still felt guilty and was unable to raise her head in Isla’s presence.

It was a helpless debt.

One couldn’t choose one’s background.

Nor could one change life or death.

Once a person died, that was it.

No matter how much one regretted, one could never

make amends.

Lewis, who appeared cold and aloof, actually cared deeply for those around him

Madeleine once saved his life, so if he just gave up on her like this, Lewis would spend the rest of his life living

with guilt toward Madeleine; Keira didn’t want

that for him.

Yet Lewis stepped forward, his voice trembling. “But compared to that, | can’t bear to lose you even more.”

Keira lowered her eyes, smiling. “Lewis, be sensible. You know that this is the best choice for both of us.”

Suddenly, Keira took a step forward and hugged him tightly.

This action trapped the words in Lewis’s throat.

Keira then laughed. “Lewis, don’t be so down. I'm quite used to your domineering demeanor. Besides...”

Her voice was muffled. “This marriage was bizarre from the start. | always feel like someone is pulling the strings

behind the scenes. Maybe if we get a divorce, that person behind the scenes has to show themselves?”

She said all these words quietly.

After that, she stood up straight and patted Lewis’s shoulder. “Alright, see you at the courthouse tomorrow. Don’t

standup.”

Leaving those words behind, she turned to leave.

But her arm was tightly grasped by Lewis.

Keira didn’t look back.

She was never a coquette, but seeing Madeleine clinging to Lewis’s hand, affectionately calling him “big

brother,” it was a lie to say she wasn’t jealous.

Love was inherently selfish and possessive.

For a moment, both of them were motionless.

It wasn’t clear how much thad passed when Lewis

finally let go of her hand.

Only then did Keira leave.

She hurried into the room next door, her own room.

And the moment she closed the door, a tear suddenly

rolled down.

One must not be too greedy.

She was accustomed to hardship from a young age, but now, she not only had Lewis but also had Jodie South as

a mother...

Indeed, whatever destiny gave you, it would take something else away.

Keira got into bed and buried her head deeply into the

blanket.

If she had known it would turn out like this, she should

have controlled herself and not fallen for him...

She didn’t regret bringing up the divorce because she knew if she hadn't, he would have been the one to speak

up eventually...

This was better.

She hadn’t been abandoned; it was she who didn’t

want him...

In the room separated from hers by just one wall.

Lewis stood dazed at the door.

The way she walked away made him feel an emptiness inside. Irritated, he took off his tie and walked toward

the balcony.

The last few days had brought a drop in temperature, and even in Oceanion, the temperature had fallen to

below zero.

He took off his coat, now standing there in just his shirt, gazing toward Keira’s room.

The light in her room was off...

She might have fallen asleep

Or perhaps, like him, she couldn't sleep at all.

Lewis took out another cigarette.

Perhaps because the weather was too cold, he noticed his hand was trembling slightly.

After lighting the cigarette, he took a long drag as if to inhale the harsh flavor into each and every organ...

He choked and coughed a four times and his area

were wet.

Something fell onto his hand.

Lewis glanced at it and gently wiped it away.

The morning arrived quickly.

With the light of dawn, Keira opened her eyes.

She wasn't sure if she had slept last night; the entire night felt muddled, with the faint sound of coughing next

door occasionally reaching her ears.

But the insulation of old Mrs. Horton's courtyard was

excellent.

She knew it was her imagination.

She got out of bed and went to the door.

Lewis was also opening his door, and their eyes met.

There was a clear sign of fatigue under his eyes,

After a while, Keira showed a small smile. “Good

morning.”

Lewis's lips moved slightly, and he struggled to utter a word, “Morning”

Neither of them had much appetite for breakfast. Keira simply said, “Let's go.”

Lewis opened his mouth but said nothing, turning around and walking ahead.

After the two left the room, Fiona cout from behind them, looking anxious as she watched them leave. She

then rushed to old Mrs. Horton's room. “Ma’am, Mr. Lewis and Miss Keira don’t seem too well. | saw Miss Keira

holding the marriage certificates; could they be going to get a divorce?”

Old Mrs. Horton covered her chest at these words, but this tshe didn’t throw a tantrum or speak. She just

sighed. “Fiona, | can’t force Keira; the brat’s the one who wronged her...”

Fiona’s eyes reddened upon hearing this. “But she’s such a good wife... If Mr. Lewis misses out on her, he'll

regret it for his entire life!”

Old Mrs. Horton felt even sadder. “Stop it. We should interfere less in the young people's affairs!”

She lay down on her bed, tears trickling from her eyes. She couldn't help but curse. “That brat!”

Keira followed Lewis to the parking lot.

Both of them got into the car, and the driver started driving toward the main gate.

Outside, both the courier from Keira’s company and Horton's old house had arrived simultaneously.
