Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 28 I Am Not Good Enough for You

Alwyn didn’t know what had happened to Peyton these days. Before, she clearly had a strong desire for life, but now there was nothing in her eyes and it seemed she neither longed for life or death.

Peyton was like a still lake with no ripples now.

“Is it because of Nolan? Is it him who hurt your hand?”

Peyton shook her head. “No.”

“It’s about him, isn’t it? You are nothing like the genius girl I used to know.”

Alwyn’s expression changed and he couldn’t bear to tell Peyton the truth. Looking out the window at the dancing snow, he sighed, “Maybe Nolan did love you that winter, but this winter he has chosen someone else. So you should not indulge in the past.”

In the eyes of others, Peyton was blinded by love and had lost herself, but no one really knew what had really happened between her and Nolan.

Peyton was well aware that Nolan no longer loved her, and even if he had given up revenging on her, Paula’s death was his deepest grief and he would be deeply trapped in pain all his life.

Now that Nolan had decided to marry Helena, Peyton intended to find everything out within the limited lifetime she had. Peyton hoped that Nolan would not make things difficult for Kason if Kason woke up.

Peyton believed it was good for both Nolan and her.

When Alwyn turned to look at Peyton again, the frail Peyton seemed gone and there was more firmness in her eyes.

Alwyn sighed, “Now that you’ve made up your mind, I have nothing else to say. Peyton, you know what will happen after taking out the infusion port. Will you regret it?”

“Alwyn seems to ask me that all the time…” Peyton thought. And then she replied with a smile, “Of course, I won’t.”

Peyton stripped off half of her clothes to reveal an arm and her fair shoulders. The wounds on her arm had healed.

Peyton didn’t want to have anesthesia, which made things much simpler. It was just a small surgery, and Alwyn could manage it alone.
