Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 33 The Dead Won’t Betray You

Kadence was a medical student and knew the side effects of

chemotherapy very well. She understood Peyton’s decision. A lot of people didn’t die from cancer but from the side effects of

chemotherapy. It was too painful.

Kadence couldn’t be so selfish as to let Peyton suffer. Maybe it would only make Peyton die sooner.

Kadence wrapped her arms around Peyton’s waist from behind, crying silently.

“Okay, I’ll stay with you.”

Kadence’s tears soaked Peyton’s pajamas. “You must have been in a lot of pain at that time, right? I’m sorry. I didn’t know anything about it.”

“I’ve been better the past two days. Kadence, thank you. I didn’t want to die alone. Originally, I wanted Nolan to stay with me, and now that it has come to this, he and I probably won’t meet again.”

Hearing about Nolan, Kadence was furious. “Peytie, you said that his sister’s grave had been ruined and that someone had photographed you carrying a hammer. Do you think someone set you up?”

“It can’t be anyone other than Helena.” Peyton was well aware of that. Nolan had just agreed to stay with Peyton for another month, and then this happened. Surely, Helena had something to do with it.

“You know it’s her. Then why are you so calm?”

“Since last year, Helena has used a lot of methods to force me and Nolan to divorce. To be honest, these methods are not clever. Nolan

can see through these httle tricks, but he always takes Helena’s side. In the beginning, I argued with him, but later, I found out that what mattered was not the truth but his preference.”

Kadence saw Peyton demoralized and continued to rouse her fighting spirit. “But this time is different. If it’s true that she destroyed Paula’s grave, don’t let her off even if you have to divorce.”

“Kadence, the problem between Nolan and I isn’t Helena, but his sister’s death. We can’t be reconciled except by bringing her back to life. Even if we could do that, we wouldn’t be able to get back together.”
