Chapter 195 âMikayla!â
Jerome kicked the fat man away and supported her. âAre you okay?â
His urgent voice rang in her ears. She didnât know whether it was because of alcohol or pain, but she soon felt dizzy and couldnât open her eyes.
In a daze, she felt Jerome lift her and rush out. She also faintly heard Celesteâs concern, the groans of the fat man, and various screamsâ¦
When Mikayla woke up, she found herself lying in a ward. Surrounded by white walls, she had an IV drip attached to her arm.
Why was she in the hospital?
Suddenly, she recalled the incident that happened in the bar. The fat man wanted to hit Jerome, but she pushed him away and was injured.
âYouâre finally awake.â
Jeromeâs low voice brought Mikayla back from her thoughts.
She looked up and noticed he was sitting by the bed. He probably hadnât rested ast he furrowed and appeared haggard.
He had always paid attention to his appearance. But now, he casually placed his coat. on the chair and rolled up his cuffs slightly, revealing his strong wrists.
âAre you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?â Jerome asked as he sat up.
Mikayla moved her body. Aside from the slight pain in her shoulder and a headache, she was fine.
âIâm fine. Where is Celeste? Has she gone home?â she asked hoarsely.
He looked at her indifferently and asked instead, âWhy did you do that?
Fortunately, that man had drunk too much and was injured, so he didnât use much force. Otherwise, your shoulder would have broken.â
Chapter Mikayla felt regretful and fearful when she recalled it, along with a bit of sadness.
She had fallen too deeply in love with Jerome in her previous life. Even if was in her second life, she still couldnât change her habits.
When she saw someone doing something horrific to Jerome, she instinctively reacted to protect him.
âDonât worry. I wonât do it next time,â Mikayla answered grimly.
He felt uneasy when he noticed her expression.
He frowned and said unnaturally, âI admit Iâve neglected you. If you want a divorce. because you think I donât care about you, letâs put that aside for now. We can spend some time together and try to get along. Iâll try to meet your needs.
Mikayla knew Jerome probably felt guilty because she had saved him. He was used to being aloof. It was rare for him to be so humble.
In the past, she would have agreed to his suggestion without hesitation. But now, she had no interest in it.
Although she loved him for eight years and couldnât change some habits, she didnât have the energy to love him anymore.
âNo need,â Mikayla said indifferently, Letâs divorce according to the previously agreed time. You donât need to change.â
Jerome endured his annoyance and took another step back. âIf youâre unsatisfied, I can make up for our fifth anniversary. You can do whatever you want.â
She seemed to have changed after waking up from her suicide attempt.
had tried to jump off the building because he didnât celebrate the fifth anniversary with her.
Thus, he felt that it was the crux. It was at least one of the reasons that triggered her to divorce.
Since he had discovered the cause, he could try to solve it.
