The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1612

"Don't cry!"

Rainie's tears hurt Thomas fatally. His heart felt as if it was being pierced and he wanted to hold her in his arms so badly to comfort her, but now he had lost the right to.

"Why do you care? Thomas, if you want to hurt me, go all the way so that I can hate you and see how much of a bastard you are. What are you acting like you care now? Tell me, what do you want?" If they weren't separated by the glass, Rainie had really wanted to grab his collar and question him.

Thomas felt very bitter in his heart.

However, this was his fault, so he had to bear it.

"I never wanted to hurt you."

"But everything you did after you said you want a child is indeed hurting me, isn't it? Thomas, if you want a child, you could've just told me. It's true that I can't give birth to a child, but I won't stop you from having one. But why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you discuss it with me? There are many ways to have a child of our own, but you had chosen the worst way. You made a mistake, but you didn't think that you did, and even felt that I didn't understand. If you want to do this, then let's get a divorce, and you can do whatever you want after that. But you didn't want a divorce! You are torturing me. You knew Emory did bad things to me, but you held back because of the child. You let me suffer, and you're saying that you never wanted to hurt me?"

Rainie let it all out, as if she had torn open her scabbed wounds. The pain caused her entire body to tremble, and she felt like it was dripping with blood.

"Thomas, it was you who stabbed me in the heart! You stabbed me in the heart, but right now, you're saying that you didn't want to hurt me. Don't you feel ashamed? I know that I didn't do well in this marriage. I was busy with my career and neglected you. But what did I do that for? I am just an ordinary woman, and my family's power and status disappeared overnight. Since you left Nathaniel, you became better in business, and your business grew. In B City, everyone praised you. I am your wife. I want to be capable enough to stand with you and be worthy of you, so I worked so hard. I wanted others to say that I was a good match for you whenever they talk about you. I want them to think that instead of an uninportant Mrs. Song. We don't have children, so I thought that if I work hard for another ten years, I'll travel the world with you. I didn't think that I would neglect you and make you feel alone."

"Stop it."

Thomas' tears were flowing down his face too.

He never knew this was what Rainie was thinking.

Ever since he fell in love with Rainie, he knew that she was independent and different from ordinary women. But after their marriage, he wanted Rainie to be a housewife and just stay at home peacefully. It was all because he had those wrong thought that led to this.

If they had identified their problems a long time ago and discussed them with each other, maybe they would not have ended up like this.

"Rainie, I was wrong. It was not until I saw you coughing up blood that I realized that a child or anything else in the world was not as important as you to me. I just want to see you well, but I made the wrong moves. I won't ask for your forgiveness, but I only hope that you can recover soon and live on healthily. I was wrong, and I know that there is no way to make up for those mistakes. I don't only owe you an apology, but other than that, I don't know what I should say or do. Everything I'm doing now isn't asking you to forgive me, and I know it is impossible anyway. I just want to make myself feel better. You are right I was blinded by the child, and I even pretended to be clueless when I knew Emory did something bad to you. I am an accomplice. I hit Emory and caused her to miscarry, which is a crime. If she wants to sue me, I will accept it. It was nothing to do with you. Without me, a b*stard, you will get to live a good life in the future."

Thomas looked at Rainie with longing in his eyes, but he no longer had the right to have the pure her.

Rainie's heart skipped a beat as if she had realized something, and she suddenly felt a pain in her chest. "What are you trying to say?"

Thomas lowered his head, and his heart felt as if there were thousands of daggers in his chest.

Then, he spoke with difficulty and bitterness.

"I've already signed the divorce papers and gave them to Lawyer Zhang. Although I didn't cheat on you, without the permission of a wife, I made a child with another woman during the marriage. I'm the one at fault, so I will leave with nothing. The company, the assets, and other funds, I believe Mr. Ye will find someone to take care of it for you. I've written a contract to give them all to you. It is already legal and it's also with Lawyer Zhang. You can confirm it later. You don't have to deal with me anymore. After you sign the papers, give them to Lawyer Zhang, and he will deal with it. You don't need to show up. You're a public figure, after all. This is all my fault. I'll let Lawyer Zhang deal with it later..."

"Thomas!"

Rainie interrupted Thomas and looked straight at him.

Thomas suddenly stopped and looked up, only to see that Rainie's eyes had a trace of emotion he couldn't recognize.

Rainie asked, "Have you thought it through? Are you sure you want a divorce?"

"I can't bear to!"

Thomas wanted to cry again.

He was a man who never shed tears, but today his tears seemed to be out of control, and he couldn't help it.

"But I did something wrong, and it was something serious. I know that you won't forgive me and I can't forgive myself too. Whenever you look at me, you will think of Emory and the child in her belly. You will fee sick, sad, and even hate me. It's not that I can't stand it, it's just that I know you don't want a marriage like this, and you don't want our happy past to be erased completely."

Rainie's tears fell on the back of her hand. Then, she suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice, "You know me well, but even so, you did something that upset me the most! Thomas, you are a b*stard!" After that, she turned around and left.

Thomas looked at her figure and bit his lower lip tightly. Tears filled his eyes and his heart was all scrunched up as if his whole body was about to be torn apart.

He wanted to reach out and persuade her to stay, but she had no reason to!

Meanwhile, Rainie ran out of the detention center and got into the car. She was trembling all over and suddenly burst into tears on the steering wheel.

She cried about her dying marriage, and she cried about how the man who was once very important in her life was leaving her...
