Loving you is my eternal agony carved in bones

Just because the temperature was a little bit higher, he poured the whole bowl of soup on me and made me stand outside the door all night.

The next day, Arthur came home and saw the burns on my body. Without saying a word, he asked Lucas to come back and kneel down as punishment.

He did so.

But after Arthur left, Lucas grabbed my jaw tightly and said, "Okay, Sophie Evans, you are quite capable. You have learned to complain!"

"I'm telling you, don't think I can't do anything to you just because you have Arthur's support. I have plenty of ways to deal with you!"

That night, he made me kneel on the balcony with my baby who was less than a month old, and listen to him and Isabella's passionate lovemaking all night long.

The next day, my daughter had a high fever and developed pneumonia.

As a result, I developed back pain.

After that, no matter what excessive things Lucas did, I never mentioned it to Arthur.

What's more, Emily is dead now, and asking him to come over would only offend his daughter.

While I was deep in thought, the nurse came to us pushing my daughter's bed.

With trembling fingertips, I lifted the white cloth covering her body.

There was not a single piece of intact skin on the body that had not yet fully developed, and blood was even oozing out of the holes.

I reached out my hand to touch her, but I didn't know where to put my hand.

In the end, he could only throw himself on his daughter and scream heartbreakingly:

"Emily——! Mom is sorry for you!"

"Don't go, don't leave mom alone, please, I beg you, please!"

People around me looked at me with pity. Arthur wiped his tears and tried to snatch the white cloth from my hand.

"Sophie, please don't do this. Emily in heaven would be sad if she saw this."

But no matter how hard he pulled, I refused to let go, leaving a bloody mark on the quilt.

It wasn't until the doctor injected me with a sedative that I lost my last bit of strength, closed my eyes, and passed out.

When I opened my eyes again, I was lying on the ward, and Arthur was sitting next to me. He seemed to be a few years older.

I closed my eyes, tears silently falling:

"My child is gone, please let me go. I have already paid back what I owed to Vincent Family with my life."

Arthur was reluctant, but he finally nodded.

"Sophie, I was selfish and kept you in Vincent Family for so many years. I have wronged you. I will have someone notarize the divorce agreement for you."

"As for Emily..."

Before he could finish, I interrupted him:

"I want to take it away."

Emily has suffered too much in her life, there is no way I can let her stay in Vincent Family.

Arthur nodded, "Okay, then let Emily come with you. The child will be cremated tomorrow. After the cremation, I will have someone buy you a plane ticket to go abroad."

"Good boy, go live your life."

After saying that, Arthur hunched over and turned away.

The tears that I had been holding back in my eyes could no longer be held back and burst out.

Old memories also came to mind.

Lucas and I were not supposed to have any intersection.

My parents died ten years ago, and it was Arthur who found me and funded my college education.

After I started working, I offered to repay the sponsorship fees, but Arthur said he didn't want the money and only hoped that I could help his grandson who had just lost both parents and felt betrayed.

That was also the day I met Lucas for the first time.

His tall and handsome appearance made my heart beat wildly, but I didn’t think much about it.

Instead, she stayed by his side day and night and learned how to sober up.
