Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 5 Don’t You Care About Anyone?

Colette looked at Nolan in confusion. She hadn’t heard about Nolan getting married.

“Mr. Dalton, we have been living abroad for many years and we are not familiar with the news at home. What is the relationship between my daughter and you?”

Nolan remained calm and said expressionlessly, “We were once in a relationship. I am currently filing for divorce.”

Peyton didn’t expect that after years of sincere feelings, it would all be reduced to a mere past for Nolan.

Was Peyton angry? Of course, she was.

But more than that, Peyton felt disappointed. It was stupid of her to love such a scum.

Peyton took out the ring box and threw it heavily on Nolan’s forehead. “Bastard, fuck you. The biggest regret of my life is marrying you. Meet me at Courthouse at 9 o’clock. Whoever doesn’t come is a coward.”

Nolan’s forehead turned red from the hit. The box then fell to the ground, and the ring landed by Peyton’s feet. But Peyton didn’t even glance at it. She stomped on the ring and slammed the door as she left.

Too many things had happened to Peyton in the past two years. This event was like the last straw, and she didn’t run far before fainting on the road.

Watching the continuous raindrops in the sky, Peyton felt the world had hostility against her.

She thought it would be better to die like this.

Everyone was scheming against Peyton. There was nothing for her to hold onto.

When Peyton woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar room. The warm yellow light dispelled the darkness, and the room was as warm as spring with the heating.

“You’re awake.”

Peyton opened her eyes and saw Alwyn’s gentle eyes. “Alwyn, did you
