Dead Love Will Not Reignite

The criminals hiding in the cruise ship killed me and hid me in cold storage.

Later, they disguised themselves as tourists and held an ice cream party.

At the party, when Sebastian Fuller was kissing his first love, she smiled and asked him, "Your wife is also on this cruise ship. Aren't you afraid that she will find out that you are having an affair?"

Sebastian smiled faintly, his tone filled with indulgence.

"She's not important. Even if she died, I wouldn't shed a tear. But you are different..."

He hugged the woman and continued affectionately, "You are my life."

For three whole days, he indulged in a sweet flirtation with his love on the cruise ship, unaware of the passing time.

On the fourth day, Sebastian didn't see me and sent me a message with a frown.

"Where did you go?"

No one replied to his message.

Just three days ago, as they were being intimate, his wife was murdered and hidden in the cold storage unit behind him.

Sebastian and I had another argument, and the silent treatment lasted for a whole two weeks.

I want to go on one last long-distance trip with him before getting divorced, trying to recapture the passion we had when we first got married.

Unexpectedly, he told me he wanted to take his first love with him.

"Nicole has wanted to go to the beach for a long time. She also likes cruises. We'll take her along on this trip," Sebastian said calmly.

It was not asking but informing.

I was tired.

In the past six months, every argument and cold war we had was because of Nicole Griffin.

She completely captivated Sebastian's attention when she returned from overseas.

He stopped picking me up from work to have dinner together, ceased accompanying me for shopping, and even lacked the patience to wait for me to get a manicure done.

The message he sent me every day was that he'd be working overtime.

Those messages pushed me further and further away.

I had confirmed with his company's employees that he had never worked overtime those days. Instead, he left early every day, even before the end of work.

It was obvious who he went to see.

Even this time, I wanted to have our last intimate cruise trip together, but he had to bring Nicole.

I looked at him quietly.

Even though I remained silent, he didn't notice the slightest unusual of me. He kept his head down, engrossed in his phone, occasionally flashing a gentle smile.

Suddenly, I felt that everything was so dull.

"Whatever. You decide it. I'm tired."

Then, I got up and went to the guest bedroom.

There was still no response from behind.

I chuckled with self-derision, a bitter taste lingering in my mouth.

I couldn't comprehend the reason why I was desperately holding onto this marriage.

When I reached the bedroom door, I halted.

Finally, I made up my mind, turned back, and said, "Sebastian, let's get a divorce."

He didn't give any response.

He stood up wearily, rubbing his temples, and was nonchalant as he said, "Avery, stop being silly.

It was you who said you wanted to go on a cruise trip with me. Now that the tickets have been purchased, you're saying you want a divorce and don't want to come.

Even if we get divorced, let's discuss it after the trip."

After saying that, he walked into the study.

I knew that he must have gone to make a video call with Nicole again.

Three days later, Sebastian and I boarded the cruise ship in total silence, completely ignoring each other's existence.

Only after Nicole boarded the cruise ship did a faint smile appear on his face.

He reached out to take Nicole's luggage, asking, "Why did you bring so much stuff? Did you pack a bunch of delicious food and fun things?"

She laughed carefree, playfully leaning towards him, and said, "You know, I'm a foodie, and I can't live without delicious food.

Moreover, since I finally got to go on a cruise trip, I had to wear pretty dresses. You better take lots of pictures of me later!"

Sebastian smiled and rubbed her head. "Go in and check your room."

Nicole smiled shyly at me and greeted me, "Avery, I might trouble you and Sebastian to take care of me during this period."

Then, with Sebastian's urging, the two of them left one after another.

Bitterness spread within me.

Sebastian was so warm and friendly towards others. However, he must have noticed that I was still holding onto my luggage.

I sighed deeply.

Carrying the heavy luggage alone, I made my way back to the room assigned on the cruise ship.

The room was dark, and I tried to turn on the light but found it was broken.

Just as I was about to turn around and find someone to help, someone covered my mouth from behind.

I panicked and tried to scream for help.

However, I was swiftly silenced by the criminals who had been hiding on the cruise ship without hesitation.

As I took my final breath, I happened to see Sebastian holding Nicole's hand, happily touring around the cruise ship, engaging in conversation and laughter.
