Adrian Desmond pulled her hand away, apologizing sincerely, "Melanie, you're a good person, but I'm not. I'm the one failing you..."
"Sixth Brother is good to me. I only love him. I don't want a divorce; you're all I have left... Please, don't leave me..." Tears blurred Melanie Carpenter's vision, making Adrian a hazy figure in her eyes.
"I won't leave you. Even if we get divorced, I will still take care of you.
"Melanie, please don't force me anymore. If we don't divorce, Mai will never come back. You don't understand; I have nightmares every night, dreaming about Mai marrying another man with my son.
"Soon enough, that heartless woman will definitely remarry with my son. My woman and my son belong to me!" This time, Adrian didn't give in to her tears.
"Sixth Brother, what about me then? I'm your woman too!"
"..."
"Sixth Brother, are you really going to divorce me?" she asked again, her voice laced with uncertainty and desperation.
