Astor’s body was trembling, as if he was scared or excited. He said, “Baby, I’m sorry, don’t leave me.”
I spoke calmly, “Mr. Ratliff, I think you understand what I mean.”
Astor’s body stiffened, but he didn’t respond to my words, instead pretending to be pitiful. “Baby, I haven’t eaten anything all day. Let’s go home and eat something together, OK? I miss the pasta you make.”
Home?
I laughed. “You’re talking about the villa you gave me as a birthday gift or the small house I gave you as a wedding gift?
“Unfortunately, no matter which one it is, now I’m living abroad in a dormitory. I don’t have any home now.”
I pushed Astor away, and he looked at me with red eyes, like an abandoned puppy.
But it was he who abandoned me first. Why did he show this. expression?
I was furious, coldly saying, “Astor Ratliff, how dare you come here? That flash driver is the warning I gave you. You should know it, right?
“If you agree to end our relationship on good terms, sign the divorce agreement. I’ll go back to the US and get the divorce certificate with you in a month.

Perhaps he heard the seriousness in my tone, Astor’s face was filled with pain. He asked, “Are you sure? To support me to this day, how much effort have you put in?”
I sneered, “So you know it too.”
Astor got upset, and he spoke to me in a low voice, “I’m sorry. But baby, I truly love you. I just really want a child of my own.
“You’re not pregnant for a long time. I thought you couldn’t get pregnant, that’s why…
“You never came to my company, because you were afraid that people would think I lived off a woman to have the business. So you didn’t know, every time I went to the business dinner, they would tease me for not having children.
“Over time, I began to hope for a child. Otherwise, what’s the point of working so hard and earning so much money?
“I need someone to inherit my company. I need to bring my parents a grandchild.
“But I never thought of divorcing you. I will always love you. You will always be the best Mrs. Ratliff in everyone’s eyes!”

Astor’s face changed dramatically, he frowned at me as if I were a stranger, saying, “But that’s life. Baby, you’re also a mother who lost a child. How could you want another mother to lose her child?”
I laughed and slapped Astor. “This is your real opinion, right? Relax, it’s just a joke. I would never give you another child.
“After all, I’m already thirty. I’m not as young and strong as Chloe. My child couldn’t be as healthy and smart as hers, right?”
With each word, Astor’s face turned paler. He took a few steps back, stammering, “You heard it, so you already knew Aden and I deceived you.”
I laughed. “Yes, I knew you were fooling me long ago.”
Astor still wanted to say something, but I looked at him coldly and said, “Get lost! I’ll only get the divorce certificate with you, or I don’t want to see you again!”
I finished my words and left.
Astor wanted to follow me, but our dormitory security was very strict, so he was directly blocked outside.
I thought he would give up, but I didn’t expect that later he would keep following me.
He didn’t care if I ignored him.
Astor told me he would let Chloe give birth to the baby and then leave, and he would let me raise that child.
He also said that once I got healthier, we could have anothe child.

He was willing to give me a child, and I should be grateful.
I was so annoyed by Astor, and I recorded what he said and sent it to Chloe.
The next day, Chloe took a flight and came over.
That day, I finally agreed to have dinner with Astor, and he was so happy.
For a moment, I seemed to see that young man who once confessed his love for me.
