It dawned onwhy many men died earlier than their wives. Maybe it was because of cigarettes and alcohol.
Tyler had the intention to get himself drunk, so he kept drinking vigorously. Even Theo was drinking a lot.
Tyler sat on the chair, swaying left to right. It was obvious that he was already drunk.
| looked at Theo, realizing that his face was a little flushed and his gaze was a little dazed. Surprisingly, he was
drunk too.
| quickly pressed down his hand that was holding the wine bottle and persuaded him gently, "Stop drinking,
Theo. It's not good for your body. Listen to me, okay?"
He looked up at me, the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually breaking out. "It's fine."
Seeing that he still refused to listen, | gradually furrowed my brows, already a little angry. "Theo, do you know
that wine's
"I won't drink anymore." Knowing that | was angry, he very sensibly put down the wine bottle. A slight smile

Tyler lay on the table staring at us and spoke in a muffled tone, "Say, enough of that, the two of you. I'm fucking
drinking alone here and you're there acting all lovey-dovey. Can you have an ounce of empathy? Perhaps
comforta little?"
Theo pursed his lips, ignoring him.
Not only did he ignore him, he even propped up his face with one hand and stared atas though he was doing
it on purpose. He looked like he was admiring me.
| dared not meet his gaze and turned to look at Tyler, asking, "Did you have a fight with Susan? Or did you do
something horrible?"
Tyler clicked his tongue and asked with a face full of displeasure, "What do you mean | did something horrible?
What sort of horrible things can | possibly do?" | raised my eyebrows. "Are you sure?"
Tyler fell silent. After a long time, he took a sip of wine and sighed. "Susan wants to leave. What should | do
about the baby?"
| was not surprised. | had reminded Tyler to treat Susan well previously, and if he was too stubborn to listen, then
Susan would one day leave in disappointment.
| knew Tyler did not heed my advice at the time, so this outcwas already expected.
| pursed my lips and blandly said, "Tyler, are you sad because Susan is leaving or because the baby won't have a
mother anymore?"
Tyler did not respond immediately.
Instead, he continued to take big gulps of wine. He said, "The child won't have a mother at such a young age.
He's too pitiful."
| frowned, feeling my anger rise. "Tyler, Susan sacrificed her youth and love for you and this is the reason why
you're sad about her leaving? Is she really just a birthing tool to you? Is she not worthy enough to be your wife?"
There was a confused look in his eyes. "But I've given her everything | can and everything she deserves. | won't
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmget married. Apart from not being able to make her my legal wife, I've given her everything. Why is she still not
satisfied? She won't meet anyone else in this lifetwho can give her what I've given her."
Tyler seemed a lot like Matthew.
Did they really not know what Susan and Liz wanted?
They knew. They just refused to do it.
Therefore, they continued to live carefree lives while trying to make up for it with material things, thinking that it
would be too much for the women to want anything else. Such behavior was, in my opinion, downright selfish.
Tyler refused to face his true feelings even until now. He refused to admit his feelings for Susan, hence it was
useless no matter how much I said.
| looked at Theo and faintly said, "It's getting late. Let's go home."
Theo nodded and got up obediently.
Tyler was unimpressed. "That's not right. You've only taken a few bites. Why are you already leaving?"

"I still have a child at hand need to go back to take care of him," Theo said, his charming face full of smiles.
