The faces of both of them were filled with happy smiles.
I slid the mouse and found the last photo.
The date showed that it was a few months ago, in a maternity hospital.
Gabrielle and Linden embraced each other intimately.
The slogan on the wall behind me was very eye-catching.
“Congratulations, you are about to become a father!”
Looking at the photo, my heart sank into the abyss.
That day, Linden said he was going to meet a client. I had nothing to do, so I offered to go with him.
But he smiled and refused, saying that the client was a man and was very lustful.
If I went, the business would probably fail.
I believed it.
Now, I knew that he was not going to meet any male client, but to make an appointment with Gabrielle for IVF.
I closed the laptop and walked out of the study.
I blew the cool breeze on the balcony all night.
When the sky turned pale, I finally made a decision.
I didn’t want this seemingly happy marriage anymore.
Linden, I didn’t want it either.
After getting up, Linden reminded me while getting dressed.
“Tamara, don’t forget that today is the Lantern Festival. My parents have been preparing for this reunion dinner for a long time. Don’t be late.”
I sat on the sofa without saying a word.
Before leaving, he kissed my forehead.
“I’m going back to the company to deal with some things. Come over in the afternoon and we’ll go home together. Also, I’ve prepared a surprise for you. Remember to check it.”
After Linden left, I started packing my luggage.
At noon, the surprise he prepared arrived.
A latest Patek Philippe women’s watch and a luxurious custom lunch at a five-star hotel.
“My woman, naturally, must be spoiled by me.”
This was the sentence Linden had said the most in the seven years since we got married.
Looking at the women’s watch lying quietly in the exquisite box, my heart kept souring and swelling.
Looking up at the huge wedding photo on the wall, in the photo, Linden nestled in my arms, his face full of happiness.
But deep in his eyes, there was always a lingering melancholy.
In the past, I mistakenly thought that this was the feeling of starting a family.
Now I knew that it was actually the sadness of not being able to marry the woman he loved.
I tried to calm down and called my lawyer friend to ask him to prepare a divorce agreement.
I originally booked a flight to fly abroad today, but I finally changed it to tomorrow.
Because I promised Linden that I would accompany him home to celebrate the Lantern Festival tonight.
A person should not break his promise, this was what my father taught me.
When I thought of my father, my heart was like being twisted by an invisible big hand, and it hurt.
When I was still young, my mother died in a car accident.
My father raised me alone.
No matter how hard and tired life was, he never thought of marrying another woman.
Because he promised that he would only love my mother in this life and never change his mind...
In the afternoon, I came to Miller Group.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard familiar whispers around me.
“Tamara is here to visit Mr. Miller again.”
“They are so loving.”
“Of course. The media once voted that Tamara and Mr. Miller are one of the ten most enviable couples in Gadena.”
“Tamara and Mr. Miller have been childhood sweethearts, so they have been married for seven years and have always had a good relationship.”
“They are a perfect match, and the baby they give birth to will definitely be very beautiful.”
“Then the family of three will have a truly happy life.”
“Alas, we are all women. Why don’t I have such a good life as Tamara?”
“Look at the watch on her hand. It is the latest Patek Philippe, worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.”
