Refusing To Be 82
Alexander reached out to touch her forehead, but Aveline instinctively avoided his hand. "Mr. Sterling please behave yourself."
"I just wanted to see if you still have a fever," Alexander explained.
Aveline smirked mockingly. "Mr. Sterling, don't you find yourself ridiculous? You were the one who tied me up in the bathroom and poured cold water on me. You're not a three-year-old child, you know the consequences of doing that. Since you already knew I would catch a cold and have a fever, now that it's really happening, why are you pretending like this for someone else to see?"
"I didn't know your health would deteriorate to this extent, nor did I know that a fever could be life- threatening for you."
Aveline's smile grew wider. "What difference does it make whether you knew or not? We're already divorced, Mr. Sterling, yet you still keep pretending to be deeply in love. It's truly disgusting"
Although Aveline didn't know why Jamie was here, it wasn't appropriate for her to have prolonged contact with him given her current status.
She regained her composure and gently pulled away from the sticky Jamie. She then lifted the blanket and pulled out the needle inserted in her arm.
Without stopping the bleeding, a tiny drop of fresh blood oozed from the small wound, but she didn't even furrow her brows or give it a second glance.
"You..."
Aveline slowly got up, supporting her weak body. Her eyes were cold and determined as she straightened her back and said word by word.
"Alexander, it was you who cheated, and it was you who wanted a divorce. If you can't swallow the guilt for your sister's death, then I'll give my life to her."
After saying that, she leaped up and surprisingly agilely climbed onto the nearby balcony.
This was the seventh floor, and even if she didn't die from the fall, she would be severely injured.
Alexander never expected her to do something so extreme. "Aveline, calm down!"
Aveline was only wearing a thin nightgown, her feet bare. The cold wind blew fiercely, causing the white curtains to sway.
Snowflakes fell on her pale, lifeless face. Her expression was indifferent, devoid of any desire for life.
"Alexander, you don't know that I've loved you for many years. From the first time I saw you, I couldn't help but fall in love with you. Do you remember that year when you saved me from the water? I thought to myself, how wonderful it would be if I could marry you?"
"Later, I really got to be with you. Those were the happiest days of my life. Every day, I was anxiety, fearing that my good fortune would be taken away by the heavens one day."

"I cautiously enjoyed your love, hoping it would last longer. But I never expected retribution to come so quickly. In just two short years, I went from heaven to hell. I lost everything overnight."
"At first, I couldn't believe your betrayal. I thought it was just a dream, and that you would come back once
I woke up. But when I woke up, I saw you swimming towards her. You gave up on me and our
child."
"It took me a year to sort everything out. The rice has already been cooked, and the situation has been set. Everything is irreversible. I respect your choice."
"I thought that after the divorce, we would have nothing to do with each other, going our separate ways. But what have you done? You threatened me and even hurt those who were good to me. I don't know if yournoveldrama
feelings towards me are greater than your hatred, or if your hatred is greater than your love."
"But I know that as long as I'm alive, we will never stop fighting, like an unsolvable knot. This kind of life is absolutely miserable, and I'm truly sick of it."
know? There was a time when I was like the scorching sun, like the wind, free. I "Alexander, do you promised to marry you and gave up my freedom to stay by your side. But you still betrayed me."
Tears slowly streamed down Aveline's cheeks. "I don't blame you for changing your heart. I only blame us for not being destined to be together, which is why we've come to this point today. If your sister's death is the knot in your heart, then I'll give my life to you. From now on, I want to find my own freedom. Let's go our separate ways."
She opened her arms, like a butterfly, and fell towards the window.
"Aveline!" Alexander's voice behind her was heart-wrenching.
