Andy, I didn't need your sympathy.

Because I really didn't have many days left.

I didn’t say anything.

It didn't matter. It didn't matter to him at all.

Zoe said that she had a stomach ache and couldn't walk. Andy quickly went to find a wheelchair for her.

After he left, Zoe straightened her back and walked up to me. She didn't look sick at all.

"Mia, are you coming to the hospital to see a doctor? Or are you here to see me and Andy?"

"Actually, I'm not afraid of being seen by you at all, because you'll only see how much Andy cares about me."

"I just had painful menstruation, but he immediately registered the best specialist for me and canceled the meeting to take me to the clinic in person."

"Mia, take a good look at yourself. I'm the one that he loves the most. You're nothing to him."

"If I were you, I would have left a long time ago. Don't you feel ashamed to occupy a man who doesn't love you?"

Should I be ashamed and embarrassed?

But when Andy proposed to me for the first time, he also knelt down on one knee and shouted excitedly.

"I, Andy, swear that I will only love Mia in this life!"

I covered his mouth to lower his voice, but he said that he wanted to tell the whole world and let the gods witness it.

When Andy came back, Zoe suddenly fell to the ground.

She asked me with tears in her eyes.

"Mia, why did you push me?"

Andy rushed up and pushed me away before I could react.

I stumbled and fell to the ground.

Andy helped Zoe up and scolded me harshly.

"Mia, you are so vicious! She's a patient. How can you bully her like this?"

Zoe sobbed. "Andy, it's my fault. I made Mia angry."

Andy hugged her tightly. "Zoe, don't be afraid. I'm here."

He turned to me and shouted, "Mia, apologize to Zoe!"

His handsome face looked a little ferocious because of anger.

I slowly got up from the ground as if I was moving in slow motion.

I didn't have much strength left, so I didn't want to get angry.

If she said that I pushed her, then so be it.

Seeing that I was about to leave without saying a word, Andy shouted, "Mia, apologize!"

"If you apologize now, I can tell you the password of the safe."

He said sarcastically, "Haven't you always wanted to know? Now is your only chance!"

My eyes widened unconsciously and I stopped in my tracks.

I didn't expect Andy to threaten me with the password I've always wanted.

The most important thing in my life was in the safe.

I wanted to take it away before I died.

But Andy refused to tell me. He thought I was greedy for the money in his safe.

In his heart, I was a gold digger.

Back then, I divorced him because he was poor.

Now that he was rich, I wanted to take his money shamelessly.

Although he was very rich, he signed an agreement with me before the remarriage. I couldn't get a penny from him.

But a long time ago, he would buy me a 16-dollar cake with the last 17 dollars because I wanted to eat it.

I asked him, "Really?"

Andy looked at me with a sneer.

"Mia, you really want money, don't you? Apologize to Zoe. If she forgives you, I'll tell you the password."

Zoe exclaimed, "Andy, don't..."

Andy comforted her. "Don't worry. There are only 50,000 dollars in the safe. It's enough to send her away. Besides, it's a good deal to make you happy with 50,000 dollars."

Andy was right. I was short of money.

If I bought imported medicine, I could actually hold on for a little longer.

But I couldn't get the money from Andy. He would only tease me and wouldn't give me the money.

So I stopped taking the medicine and used the rest of the money to take painkilling injections.

But he was wrong. The most important thing in the safe was not money at all.

Even a million or 10 million was not as important as the piece of paper inside.

I slowly loosened my clenched fists.

I need that piece of paper.

So I lowered my head and apologized to Zoe.

"Miss York, I'm sorry."

I had apologized to others many times in my life, but this time, I felt so embarrassed that I wished I were dead.

Seeing that I lowered my head, Andy curled his lips and said, "Mia, you don't seem to be very noble. I almost forgot that you always know when to yield and when to stand tall in front of money."

His eyes were full of disdain. He didn't even bother to look at me.

Zoe pretended to be generous and said, "Mia, it's okay. You didn't do it on purpose."

I lowered my head and didn't speak.

Andy pushed her away.

I stood on the spot and looked at the bloodstains on the ground.

One drop, two drops...

I bumped my hand on the ground and broke my skin.

Looking at the blood, I suddenly wanted to laugh.

Andy, if you found out one day that everything you had done today was accelerating my death.

What expression would you have then?

When my good friend, Taylor, arrived, I was lying on the hospital bed.

When the cold liquid was injected into my body, my body seemed to become cold.

The nurse said angrily, "Didn't I ask your family to keep an eye on you? How can you get hurt?"

I didn't tell her that my family hurt me.

My body was as fragile as a porcelain doll now, and I could be in for major therapy with minor injuries.

When Taylor saw me like this, she burst into tears.

"My message was to ask you to catch adultery in the hospital, not to suffer in the hospital..."

"I'm sorry, Mia. I shouldn't have told you that they came to the hospital."

I smiled and wanted to raise my hand to comfort her, but my arms were sore and I couldn't lift them.

"It's none of your business. I was in the hospital before they came."

She said nervously, "I heard that Andy found an expert in O.B.. Is that woman..."

"She just had the painful menstruation."

Taylor shouted, "Painful menstruation? Not a miscarriage? Can't she just take two painkillers herself?"

I compressed my lips. "Sometimes, painkillers are not that effective."

She stopped talking. "Let's go. I'll take you home."

"Okay, let's go home."

I sent a message to Andy. "The password of the safe."

Andy replied to me in the evening, "Are you in such a hurry? 180813."

"50,000 dollars for your apology was worth it."

This password sounded familiar, but it was not an important code for Andy and me.

So, what did it mean?

I stayed at Taylor's house for seven days.

I didn't go to the hospital for an injection for seven days because I didn't have enough money.

I didn't want to borrow money from Taylor, because I was sure that I wouldn't be able to pay it back.

I was going to die. I didn't want to owe anyone anything.

Every time my body couldn't stand the pain, I would bite the towel until my chin was sore and almost dislocated.

Taylor was right next door. I tried my best not to make a sound to disturb her.

Andy hadn't contacted me for the past seven days.

On the eighth day, I planned to go home and get the things in the safe.

However, as soon as I arrived at the gate of the villa, I saw that the moving company.

The box they carried out wasn't properly sealed and I saw my clothes inside.

When I wanted to ask the workers about the situation, the housekeeper stopped me.

He looked embarrassed and said, "Madam, this is all Sir's idea."

"He said that since you're not coming back, you should move out."

"Where are you moving my things?" I asked.

"Mr. Jones has a small apartment in the suburbs. Mrs. Jones, you can live there in the future."

The workers were moving things inside.

It was a double bed.

Was Andy going to change the bed?

Zoe crossed her arms in front of her chest and stood at the gate of the villa, looking down at me.

She pretended to be surprised, "Mia, why are you back? I'm sorry. Andy thought our apartment was too small and asked me to move here."

I lowered my head and walked in. "I have something to take."

Zoe blocked my way.

"Mia, I've asked workers to pack up your things. They've already been loaded into a car. You'd better not go into this villa."

"This is my home now."

I told her, "Andy and I haven't divorced yet. I own half of the house."

She snorted and said, "Stop pretending. Andy told me that you two had a premarital agreement. All his assets have nothing to do with you, including this house."

When I insisted on going in, Zoe called out to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper stood in front of me with her.

"I'm sorry, Madam. Mr. Jones asked me to listen to Miss York's arrangements."

I stood on the spot, only to hear my rapid heartbeats due to anger.

This was my home, where I had lived here for a few years. Now I was stopped by another woman.

Zoe smiled smugly, and the housekeeper looked embarrassed.

A light rain suddenly fell from the sky. The drizzle fell on my face, making it hard for me to open my eyes.

The housekeeper couldn't bear to see me like this and asked, "Madam, what do you want? I can get it for you."

"The safe, the largest safe in Andy's study."

Zoe took a step back into the villa and said, "So that's what you want. Housekeeper, don't give it to her. I'll keep Andy’s money."

I slowly put on a smile. "Andy told me the password. It’s none of your business."

"If you keep talking, I'll call the police and say that you broke into the house. Legally, I'm still the hostess of this house."

Zoe glared at me, but she didn't want to make things worse.

She waved her hand and rolled her eyes.

"Okay, go and get it for her. It's just 50,000 dollars anyway. I'll take it as paying off beggars."

It's raining heavily. The workers have all gone to take shelter from the rain.

The housekeeper took out the safe. It was too heavy and could only be placed on the ground.

In the pouring rain, I knelt on the ground and opened the safe.

My whole body was cold, but my heart was warm.

I entered the password and the safe was opened.

I took out the notes and put them aside, letting them soak in the rain.

After the money was all taken out, I finally saw the folder inside.

My heart was pounding and was a little afraid of seeing it.

I ran under the eaves with the folder in my arms and opened it carefully.

In addition to the marriage documents, there was also a piece of paper.

I took out it and unfolded it. The moment I saw the words on it clearly, I had the urge to cry.

If I could take it away, I would have no regrets even if I died.

"What’s that? Let me have a look!"

Zoe suddenly appeared and snatched the piece of paper away.

She looked at it with a smile and said in a disdainful tone.

"Propose oath... Mia, you don't want 50,000 in cash, but this?"

Anger burned in my chest as I glared at her. "Return it to me!"

Zoe looked at the paper again. It was a written proposal oath from Andy when we got married for the first time.

Every word on it was filled with his love.

The more she read it, the darker her face became. She roared at me.

"Mia, stop daydreaming!"

"Do you think it can make him love you again?"

"The person he loves most now is me!"

Then, she tore the paper into pieces and scattered them all over the floor in front of me.

I held my breath as if my heart was about to explode.

I didn't have time to argue with her. I fell to the ground and quickly picked up the fragments.

But the ground was too wet, and the fragile paper was quickly soaked. The words on it were instantly ruined and couldn’t be seen.

"Mia is my best..."

"I, Andy-"

"I swear to love her as much as my life..."

"No, it's more important than my life..."

I remembered every single one of those words.

Even if it was torn apart, I could still put it together.

After the divorce, I kept reading the oaths on every sleepless night.

Not only did I remember what Andy said to me, but I also remembered how he looked like when he said those words to me.

I also remembered that his hands were shaking uncontrollably because of nervousness.

Halfway through, he got stuck. He secretly took out this piece of paper from his pocket and wanted to peek at it, but I caught him.

In the end, he took a deep breath and asked me, "Mia, are you willing to be my wife? Whether you're old or sick, poor or rich..."

His voice was so distant.

His face began to blur in my memory.

I had the wet scraps of paper in my arms and could only hear the soft sounds of rain in my ears.

It was so cold. Why was it so cold today?

I shivered from the cold and my breathing became heavier and heavier.

When I looked up again, I suddenly saw Andy.

At that moment, I couldn't tell memories from reality.

He stood there and looked at me, just like he had many years ago.

I suddenly felt so wronged that I wanted to cry.

I pointed at the scraps in my arms and said, "Andy, it's gone. The oath is gone..."

Something I held dear just shattered into pieces.

Andy looked down at me. The corners of his mouth lifted, and the contempt in his eyes was undisguised.

"Mia, do you think I'll feel sorry for you?"

I suddenly woke up and stopped crying.

The person in front of me was not the one in my memory.

He was not Andy.

At least, he was not the Andy who loved me deeply.

Andy saw the change in my expression and thought that he had successfully exposed me.

"Mia, it's a pity that you don't be an actress with your acting skills."

Before he could finish his sentence, I felt a warm sensation in my nose and it started to bleed.

Andy frowned. "Mia, stop pretending. I..."

The anger on his face suddenly froze, and his voice stopped abruptly.

It was replaced by great shock and panic.

I lowered my head and could only see the blood.

It turned out I was bleeding profusely.

Andy panicked. He rushed to me and caught me in the rain.

"Mia, what's wrong with you?!"
