In their 6-year marriage, Nora never succeeded in making Austin fall in love with her. Upon learning of her stage-IV cancer, she only begged for ten months. "After ten months, I will divorce you. Please, don't hate me." "What game are you playing?" "I'm tired and want to be free." Childhood sweethearts grew old as time passed. Nora loved Austin for 13 years, while Austin gave all his love to someone else. Austin decided to divorce Nora, who was suffering great pain from illness. "Austin, can you wait a little longer?" "Nora, don't love me anymore." In Austin's world, Nora was a restraint, but losing her felt like losing his heart. When all memories surfaced, Austin woke up and realized that the person he loved was always Nora. Nora died during surgery on the operating table, leaving behind their child. "I'm tired; I can't love you anymore. In the next life, let's not meet again. We forgive each other. From now on, we owe each other nothing!" Austin regretted not realizing it sooner and closed off his heart, living each day as if it were the last until one day. "Sir, I am Hannah, not Nora."
On September 7, 2019, Nora Foster received a thunderbolt of news on what seemed like an ordinary day.
"Mrs. Hayes, your gastric cancer has reached an advanced stage. Without timely treatment, you may not live beyond ten months. Please prepare yourself mentally."
Nora couldn't believe it; a routine check-up had brought her so close to the brink of the afterlife.
She had only ten months left in her life.
She steadied her breath, took out her phone from her pocket, and pressed the speed dial.
"Austin, where are you? Will you come home for dinner tonight? If you do, I'll go buy groceries now. I'll ask the housekeeper to teach me how to make your favorite dish."
For a long time, there was no response.
Nora bit her dry lips, and uncontrollable tears rolled down into her hands.
On the other end, a cold response came, "No, I have a social engagement tonight, and besides, you don't know how to cook."
The phone beeped a few times and then disconnected.
Nora withdrew her disappointment, took a deep breath, and walked out of the hospital.
She shouldn't have expected much of a response from Austin Hayes. In their five years of marriage, she had dutifully played the role of Austin's wife, but his thoughts were not on her.
She should have been content. Even if Austin didn't love her, accompanying her until the end of her life would be without regrets because she was incapable of everything, and Austin had taken care of her for five years.
Returning home, the desolate air made Nora shiver. She still ate alone, watched TV alone, slept alone, in this mansion that belonged to her and Austin. But most of the time, she was alone. She had grown accustomed to this loneliness, and it had become less frightening.
However, at this moment, she felt panicked. She was afraid that after ten months, there would be no one to take care of Austin. She feared that after her death, Austin would marry someone else. There would always be someone to replace her as Mrs. Hayes.
Feeling the bed sink, Nora, in a daze, realized that a cold body was pressed against hers. She knew it was Austin. Immediately, she threw herself into his embrace. Austin held her waist without any caress and entered her body.
She suddenly became clear-headed. Unable to see Austin's face, she could feel his intense presence. If there was one thing they were perfectly matched in, it was sex. They derived intense pleasure from it.
"Austin, I want a child." Nora felt a sense of relief after saying this. At least, when she was not around, there would be a child to accompany Austin.
"You said you didn't want children. Why suddenly change your mind?" Austin said coldly.
Nora turned her head, and what caught her eye was a sharply defined handsome face. The man's profound eyes pierced through the dim light and met hers.
"I like children. Give me one," she said.
Austin immediately lost interest, pulled himself out of her body, wiped himself with a tissue. He didn't have much emotion towards her.
"I married you at your father's suggestion, but I never thought of letting you have my child," he said coldly. "Don't say this again. Just be Mrs. Hayes peacefully and don't make me lose interest in you."
Nora lowered her gaze, as if a crack had opened in her heart. She knew Austin didn't love her, but she had loved him for thirteen years. How was she supposed to conclude this love?
"Is it because of her?" she asked.
Austin paused, his eyes icy.
"Aria," Nora added.
She is a wealthy and wealthy woman renowned in New York, and he is a financial tycoon in Washington. Their marriage is a family alliance without any emotional connection. In order to cultivate this love, she hid her identity and entered her husband's company, but unexpectedly, the first thing she did at work was the sexual hidden rules of her immediate supervisor.
'Sir, this card is rejected either!" Vanessa's eyes crossed with a trace of pity. Such a beautiful man was a penniless vagrant. But, luckily, he met her. Vanessa was worried about how to spend the 100,000 dollars, or her brother would nag her again. So she handed the card over directly, 'Use this." Aaron Anderson looked down and saw a fair arm stretched out from behind him. The girl was extremely good-looking, just looked cold. He raised an eyebrow, and for the first time in his life, he had the illusion of being a kept man.

Everyone was shocked to the bones when the news of Rupert Benton's engagement broke out. It was surprising because the lucky girl was said to be a plain Jane, who grew up in the countryside and had nothing to her name. One evening, she showed up at a banquet, stunning everyone present. "Wow, she's so beautiful!" All the men drooled, and the women got so jealous. What they didn't know was that this so-called country girl was actually an heiress to a billion-dollar empire. It wasn't long before her secrets came to light one after the other. The elites couldn't stop talking about her. "Holy smokes! So, her father is the richest man in the world?" "She's also that excellent, but mysterious designer who many people adore! Who would have guessed?" Nonetheless, people thought that Rupert didn't love her. But they were in for another surprise. Rupert released a statement, silencing all the naysayers. "I'm very much in love with my beautiful fiancee. We will be getting married soon."

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ “I want to get a divorce, Mark,” I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time—even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
