Goodbye, Mr. Regret

Chapter 466

Timothy pressed his hand to his chest. "I'll have your name tattooed right here- because in this lifetime, only you belong in my heart."

Not long ago, he'd told her he loved her.

And now, today, he wanted her name etched above his heart.

It was almost laughable.

Their marriage was already in pieces, shattered beyond repair.

Let him do as he pleased.

Without her medication, she would die.

When she'd found that box while preparing for the divorce-after every lawyer in town had refused to take her case—she'd been diagnosed with cancer. That was when she realized: maybe this was the only way out. The only road left that led away from him.

She'd tried. She'd tried so hard to change things.

But in the end, this was the path she had to walk.

She wasn't going to let him leave any mark of himself on her, even after she was gone.

"Be good, Salome."

"Salome? Who's Salome?"

Jessica stared at Timothy in confusion. Did he have someone else besides Sheila?

"Sorry, slip of the tongue. Jessy and Salome both mean sunshine."

Jessica didn't buy it for a second.

But what did it matter who he loved? She just couldn't let him leave his name on her body.

"Timothy, if you dare put your name on me, I'll tear the skin off myself."

"Don't fight me."
