Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Divorce

Chloe’s heart tightened, as if suddenly stabbed, blood gushing, with no choice but to wait for death.

Yes, after all, she’s contracted HIV. It’s only a difference of dying sooner or later.

At this point, why worry about her body, what is she being delicate for?

It’s an unavoidable fate; why should she struggle any longer?

She was just pinned against the door by Alexander Johnson, without a single ounce of resistance left.

Letting Alexander’s lips fall down, biting her neck.

When she felt the warmth of Alexander’s lips, Chloe truly, for a moment, felt as if blood was flowing continually from her neck, cascading downwards.

In no time, Alexander also noticed Chloe’s odd demeanor.

He stopped, lips departing from her body, and he saw the utter despair in her eyes.

He had never seen such an expression in Chloe’s eyes before.

It was as if she stood before a vibrant sea of flowers, yet Chloe saw only gray, void of anything.

This version of Chloe left Alexander feeling a tightening in his chest.

He reached out and gripped her chin: "What kind of reaction is this?"

A sense of helplessness arose from within; he had never felt so powerless before.

Chloe, expressionless, let out a cold laugh: "What? Didn’t you say we would die together?"

As she spoke those words, her gaze was blankly fixed on the distance, not even sparing Alexander a glance.

"If...dying with me causes you such despair and pain, do you want so dearly to share life and death with Lucas Hughes?"

Alexander started to speak, but as the words came out, he instantly changed his tone.

Chloe laughed: "Young Mister Johnson, your words are utterly ridiculous! Who are you to me? Lucas was already my husband, we were meant to share the bed every night, and be buried together after death!"

In her eyes, Chloe had always felt Alexander was merely toying with her.

Don’t the wealthy always look down from on high like this?

The old saying goes, money makes the world go ’round.

Therefore, Chloe never thought he would have feelings for her, believing she was just Alexander’s pastime.

"Fine! Share life, share death then! I just want to see, now that you have HIV, what will Lucas Hughes do?"

Alexander nodded heavily, tossed her chin away, and turned to leave.

After he left, Chloe just stood there, her body sliding down against the door bit by bit.

The door shut with a "bang" following her motion.

With the loud noise of the closing door, it was as if a door inside Chloe’s heart was shut completely as well.

In her ear, Alexander’s words about her having HIV and what Lucas would do echoed endlessly.

Yes, what would Lucas do?

She’s not some eighteen-year-old naive girl.

She doesn’t believe that in such a life-and-death situation, especially now that she has HIV, Lucas would still stay with her without hesitation, ignoring his own life.

People are inherently selfish, when something happens, they protect themselves first.

Take it a step further, even if Lucas really wants to continue being with her, she wouldn’t agree to it.

Does he love her so dearly? Treated her so well?

Even after what happened on their wedding night, he still chose to forgive her.

She couldn’t be that selfish, making him bear all of this with her.

This is HIV, it’s life-threatening!

In that moment, she felt so hurt, so hopeless.

She wanted so badly to let go and have a good cry!

But knowing she was still in the hospital, she could only grip her arm tightly, desperately suppressing her emotions.

Only like this could she feel a little better.

Chloe didn’t know how long she stayed in that agony until her phone rang and she snapped back to reality.

She opened her phone and saw a message from Lucas Hughes on WeChat.

[Chloe, I know about your test results. I’ve been thinking for a long time, I...]

Looking at the phone screen, Chloe smiled bitterly. The ellipsis brought to mind countless scenarios of Lucas telling her he wanted a divorce.

Tears finally slid silently down her cheeks.

She reached out to wipe her tears and replied on WeChat.

[Lucas, let’s divorce.]
