Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 46

Chapter 46 If There Were Another Life, I Only Wish To Never Encounter You Again.

Peyton looked at the moonlight in the sky, just as her current life was equally miserable.

She really didn’t want to have any more connection with Nolan. If she died, all the emotions, including love, hate, and obsession, would disappear completely. From now on, this world would no longer have her. In this way, his obsession would also cease to exist, wouldn’t it?

But she didn’t expect that at the moment she finally jumped, Nolan exerted all his strength and made a desperate leap, catching her hand before she fell.

Chris was in bed. He was startled by the sudden change and quickly climbed to the edge of the bed, slid down along the edge, and then ran with his short legs out of the ward, heading straight for Lucian.

Lucian was smoking outside the ward. As he saw Chris limping towards him, he immediately extinguished the cigarette.

He squatted down and patiently asked, “Chris, how did you come out?”

Chris exclaimed anxiously, “Mom cried…”

He gestured with his hands and feet, dancing around. Lucian couldn’t understand what he was trying to say, so he got up and picked him up. “Let me take you back. It’s cold outside, don’t catch a cold.”

At this moment, by the window, Nolan tightly grasped Peyton’s hand. while Peyton continued to calmly look at him. “Nolan, don’t you hate me? If I died, you would be able to avenge your sister, right?”

Nolan leaned half of his body out of the window. The veins on his arms were visible, and his temples were bulging. He held onto her

tighter. “Peyton, if you dare to die, I’ll make your father accompany you to the burial!”

Peyton smiled faintly and said, “My dad has been in a perpetual coma, he might never wake up in his lifetime. Death could be a kind of relief for him.”

“Who said he wouldn’t wake up? I already know where Leo is. As long as he operates, there’s an eighty percent chance your father will wake up. You’re a medical student, you should have heard of Leo’s reputation.”

There was finally some movement on Peyton’s face. Nolan keenly noticed this change and continued to coax, “I did resent you, and I resented him too, but now the Schmitt family is destroyed, your father is unconscious, and we are also separated. I no longer resent you.”

A fluttering snowflake landed on Peyton’s long eyelashes. Peyton’s eyelashes trembled lightly, like fragile butterfly wings.

“Nolan, you already had a new family, and I no longer have any attachment to this world. Let go, it’s better for both of us.”

She knew that Nolan had only temporarily compromised.

“We couldn’t go back. We haven’t been able to go back for a long time.”

Nolan held her blood–stained wrist. Fear appeared on his handsome face, which was a rare sight.

Peyton laughed, “So you were afraid of me dying. If I died, would you remember me forever?”

“How dare you die without my permission? I caught you, and you used my strength to come up.”

Nolan wanted to pull her up. Just then, Lucian arrived and was terrified when he saw this scene.

Nolan had already leaned half of his body out of the window, extremely dangerous.

The most crucial thing was that Peyton had no will to survive, which increased the difficulty of saving her. Lucian quickly made a phone call to instruct the bodyguards.

Then Lucian placed Chris on the bed and joined Nolan in persuading Peyton, “Mrs. Dalton, what could be so serious? If you speak up, Mr. Dalton will surely grant your request. Don’t joke about your life. You are still so young, and you have a long way to go.”

With Lucian’s arrival, Peyton’s body gradually lifted, and Nolan slowly straightened his back.

Peyton had made up her mind. In her opinion, she would rather choose death than continue to be tormented by Nolan.

“Lucian, the path I had to take had long been severed.”

She suddenly let go of one hand. The situation, which had just improved a second ago, instantly worsened.

“Mrs. Dalton!”

Nolan’s waist was pulled down again, but he didn’t loosen his grip even a bit. The hand he had left, holding onto Peyton’s, seemed to be his only hope.

He panicked, really panicked.

Even though he had brushed shoulders with death multiple times, he was not as terrified as he was at this moment. It was only now that he realized what Peyton meant to him.

“Peytic, if you dare to die, I will make the Russell family go bankrupt. You know I always follow through with my words.”

“Nolan, you still remained the same. You always do things your way.”

Peyton smiled brightly and said, “Nolan, you can’t threaten a dead person. If I were to die, how could I possibly control others?”

“Why do you have to die? If you wanted to die, you didn’t have to wait until today. A year ago, even when the Schmitt family went bankrupt, you could have chosen to commit suicide. Peytie, how did you become the person you are now?”

Nolan didn’t understand why, back then, no matter what difficulties she encountered, she would grit her teeth and overcome them, never bowing down. But why is it now that she only has this one path left?

She had already survived the most difficult days. Clearly, he had provided her with generous expenses, so she could live without worries, and even do everything she wanted to do.

“What do you want, I’ll give it to you,” Nolan said, making a concession.

“Nolan, why do you think that after hurting me like that in the past, I can just forgive you with a few words and pretend that none of it ever happened, and then continue living as if everything is normal? Why do you always believe that you can control everything?”

“I told you, in fact, you can’t control anything. A year ago, I was pushed into the water by Helena, just because she said, ‘If both of us fall into the water, who would you choose to save?‘ How could I gamble with my child against her? I can indeed swim. But have you ever thought that I am pregnant and I would cramp in the water? At that time, my feet were entangled in a fishing net, and I almost lost my life!”

“In the bathroom, I pleaded with you desperately, just like that day, but you still believed that nothing would happen to my body. Nolan, I’ve had enough of your arrogance, mood swings, and self– contradiction. You can’t control my life, nor can you control my death.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Peyton pulled her body with force. Her fingers slipped one by one from Nolan’s palm.

“No. Peytic…”

“Nolan, how I wish I hadn’t seen you that year. You would never know that you had occupied my entire youth. Because of that brief glance, I had loved you for many years and thought of you countless times. But today, my heart should stop beating for you.”

She struggled to lift the corners of her mouth and said, “Nolan, if there is a next life, I only wish to never meet you again.”

After saying the last sentence, Peyton let go. Her five fingers completely left Nolan’s palm.

She thought, “Goodbye, Nolan, my youth.”

“Nolan, we never saw each other again.”
