Chapter 76

The vehicle maneuvered through the congested street, merging with the gloomy night and mirroring the man’s somber

mind

With furrowed brows and sharp angles, Trevon’s dark eyes were concealed beneath layers of coldness, partially veiled by their half-closed state

He pondered, “From the day of our marriage to last night’s bitter separation, we shared the same roof for nearly two months. The New Year is just a few days away, and our agreement was supposed to last until the first month. But why does my heart feel suffocated and trapped, as if it’s holding its breath in my chest? Could it be that I can’t truly let go? No, that’s impossible. It must be because no one has ever challenged my rules. We agreed on three months, and it should be me who decides when it comes to an end”

Jimi’s hand trembled as he pressed down on the accelerator, stealing a glance at the rearview mirror. Summoning his courage, he spoke. “Mr. Wilson, if you can’t bear to be without Mrs Wilson, then go after her.”

Jim silently mused, “Although the marriage has ended, and it was ended unilaterally, as long as Mr. Wilson is willing to pursue her, he should be able to win her back. With sincerity, even an iron pestle can be ground down to a needle*

Upon hearing the sound, Trevon slowly opened his eyes, his brows slightly furrowing Which eye of yours witnessed my reluctance to part with her?”

Hearing that, Jim silently murmured, “Mr. Wilson is incredibly stubborn Clearly, he’s hesitant deep down. Otherwise, why would he visit the Wilson’s residence in the middle of the night? Is he going there to celebrate his newfound singlehood? Your gloomy expression doesn’t betray any signs of happiness. It’s evident that you’re feeling uneasy.” In his mind, he criticized his boss a thousand times over.

Soon, the car came to a halt at the entrance of the Wilson’s residence.

Stepping out of the car, the man made a beeline for the main gate of the Wilson’s residence

Jim parked the car and waited inside. It was wiser not to enter and delve into the situation at a time like this. Knowing too much only hastened one’s demise, even though he was already aware of a fair amount.

Trevon, his face expressionless and cold, headed towards Theo’s room. Along the way, he was intercepted by Gage, the butler. “Mr. Wilson, Mr. Theo is already asleep.

He locked his gaze onto Gage, searching for any hint of falsehood on his face. “I know he’s not asleep. I have a few questions to ask, and it won’t take long”

Gage felt unease as Trevon’s overpowering aura signaled that he was aware of what happened that night and was enraged. “Mr. Wilson, Lassure you, Mr. Theo is truly asleep. Mrs Wilson visited tonight, and it affected Mr. Theo’s mood. His blood pressure spiked, and he took medication betore Calling asleep. He kept complaining of a headache before going to bed. 1 suspect he can’t bear to see Mrs. Wilson leave and kept muttering about arranging a marriage ceremony, fearing that Mrs. Wilson would never set foot into the Wilson’s residence again.”

Trevon deciphered the underlying meaning in Gage’s words, and his expression darkened further. Tll return tomorrow.” With those words, he exited the Wilson’s residence.

The cabin’s temperature naturally dropped inside the car, sending a bone-chilling sensation through its occupants. Jim’s hand trembled as he inquired. “Mr. Wilson, where are we headed?”

After a brief pause, Trevon parted his lips and replied, “We’re going to Phoenix Manor,”
