Releasing her seat belt, she got out of the car.
As the door shut, she caught his strained whisper, âJessie, just one more chance for me, please.
â
Her lips trembled as she bowed her head.
Despite the turmoil in her heart, she remained steadfast in her decision to part ways with him.
After walking a short distance, she spotted Axell standing across from her.
He appeared just as worn out as Albert did.
Axell held a cup of coffee and a sandwich in his hands.
Axell felt remorseful for his past neglect and had come early in the morning to try to win Jessie back.
He hadnât expected to stumble upon this scene.
Axell was a man of great pride, having excelled above others since childhood, becoming the pride of the Calderon family.
He felt deeply betrayed by Jessie at the moment.
It became apparent that she hadnât forgiven him simply because she sought reconciliation with Albert.
âI just had dinner with Debra,â he said through clenched teeth.
âIs there really nothing going on between you and Mr.
Waston? You visited his child in the hospital.
That child is actually yours, isnât it?
No wonder you disappeared for three years.
Did you go abroad to give birth to that child during that time?
I never imagined you could be such a despicable person.
â
Axellâs words were sharp and hurtful, lacking any semblance of tact.
Jessie felt a pang in her chest.
It wasnât that she minded Axellâs misconceptions about her relationship with Albert, but the mention of those three years pierced her heart.
Only she knew the turmoil she had endured during that time.
It was easy not to love someone, but it was incredibly challenging to move on from them.
As Jessie prepared to address Axell, Albert abruptly got out of the car, the door inadvertently striking Axellâs shoulder and causing him to stagger.
Then he delivered a forceful punch to Axell, growling, âMind your words!â
With a powerful blow, Axell was sent crashing into the luxurious Rolls-Royce, yet Albert showed no concern.
Advancing, Albert seized Axellâs collar, his expression twisted in contempt.
âYouâre not worthy of her, not at all.
â
Despite the bruises marring his face and body, Axell was overwhelmed with sadness and indignation.
The sting of betrayal by a woman who chose wealth over loyalty consumed him entirely.
With a surge of emotion, Axell seized Albertâs collar, and they engaged in a fierce struggle, each grappling with their own emotions and desires.
Jessie yearned to escape the escalating violence but found herself trapped in the chaos unfolding before her.
The two men clashed with increasing ferocity, each driven by their own intense emotions.
Axell sought to strike Albert with desperation, while Albert seemed intent on inflicting serious harm.
Finally, the commotion attracted the attention of the neighbors, who swiftly summoned the police to restore order.
Axell and Albert entered the police station side by side.
Jessie, the litigant, couldnât flee.
She joined them to give her statement.
In a spacious and empty room, Axell felt like a caged animal, his senses returning as regret flooded his mind.
His remorse wasnât fueled by concern for Jessieâs feelings but rather by the fear of how this incident could tarnish his future.
Axell stated stoically, âI consent to breaking up with Jessie.
Letâs reconcile.
Escalating matters further today benefits no one.
