Audrey was fed up with his act. Then she teased, "Dominic, do you really think I can't live without you?
"Back then, you chaseddown, saying you couldn't live without me. You begged for the wedding. But in the
end, you leftfor someone else at the wedding."
Audrey was never one to dwell on past grievances. She believed that many things should be left behind. It was
pointless to argue about who was right or wrong anymore.
But at this moment, Audrey simply couldn't take it anymore. She asked coldly, "You think I'm ruining the Hayes
family's reputation? Well, did you think about how | would cope when you leftalone at the wedding?"
A flicker of guilt flashed in Dominic's eyes as he explained softly, "I've already said this was an emergency at
that time."
"Have you had fewer emergencies than me?" Audrey retorted coldly. "Do you wantto count how many times
you leftfor Eliza over the years?"
As memories flooded back, Dominic's face tightened, and he stumbled over his words, unable to speak.
Audrey met his gaze, her expression calm, her tone indifferent. "Dominic, what makes you think | would wait for
you forever?"
In reality, Audrey had once poured her heart into him, only to have it shattered. Now, she just wanted to part
ways amicably, hoping for no entanglements in the future.
"Dominic,getting married isn't to get back at you! You should understand me. I'm not the kind of person who
would act recklessly." Audrey said seriously.
Audrey continued, "I rushed into marriage simply because | realized that in your heart, I'm not as important as
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyour family's reputation, nor am | more important than Eliza.
"I don't want to keep forcing myself to chase after a man whose heart isn't with me. | don't want a relationship
filled with impurities."
Dominic clearly disagreed. Even if he felt guilty, he tried to explain stubbornly, "Audrey, my feelings for you are
real."
But Audrey didn't give him a chance to speak. She added, "I believe you genuinely likedat first. It's just that
people's hearts can change. | don't blyou. But if you continue to cling to me, | will truly regret having met
you." Dominic was left speechless, completely at a loss for words.
Audrey seemed relaxed, saying calmly, "From now on, I just want to love myself. | hope you do too."
When Dominic heard this, his expression darkened instantly. He looked fierce and shouted, "Is your self-love just
finding srandom guy to marry?"
Mentioning Alistair made Audrey's demeanor shift entirely.
Audrey lowered her gaze, a smile playing on her lips, stating proudly. "My husband is great. Although we haven't
known each other long, he never makeswait alone for him, nor would he leavebehind. Marrying him was
impulsive, but | don't regret it." Watching the radiant smile on her face, Dominic finally felt panic rising in his
chest. He realized that Audrey was truly drifting further away from him.
A surge of fear washed over Dominic like a tide, leaving him chilled to the bone.
Finally, Dominic lowered his head, almost pleading as he asked, "Audrey, what do | have to do for you to forgive
me?"
Dominic stepped closer, wanting to

"We can have a grand wedding to make up for your regrets and you can cback to me. How about that?"
'As long as you could return, | wouldn't hold your marriage against you," Dominic thought.
"It's too late!" Audrey shook her head firmly and calmly. "From now on, | don't want to have any connection with
you!"
