However, Stephanie just furrowed her brow as if she had seen a stranger. without stopping, and turned to walk towards the waiting room.
Edgar’s heart tightened as he kept weaving through the crowd, running towards the direction where she was.
Faster! Even faster!
After several months, seeing each other again, his heart was beating especially strong, almost jumping out of his throat.
He knew she was still angry, but it’s okay, he would beg for her forgiveness.
Just as Sherlyn used to say, she was most likely to soften her heart whenever he showed weakness or got hurt, she would definitely feel sorry
for him.
Edgar rushed to Stephanie at the fastest speed.
“Stephanie…”
Before he could express his thoughts of missing her and apologizing, his pupils suddenly contracted as he saw the sign on her head swaying dangerously.
“Be careful! He threw himself forward without hesitation, using his body
to shield her.”
The fallen signboard hit him hard, with its sharp corner deeply piercing into his shoulder, instantly staining his clothes red.
“Um… Are you okay? Edgar groaned, suppressing his pain to show

concern for her well–being.”

Stephanie looked conflicted and shook her head, “I’m fine, you don’t need to help me like this, we are no longer connected.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Edgar’s eyes instantly turned crimson at the corners.
“It’s okay? Stephanie, I didn’t agree to let you go, you will always be mine. What happened with Amelia was my fault, can’t I apologize to you?”
Even though he had lost too much blood and his vision was starting to darken, he still held onto Stephanie’s hand tightly, refusing to let go.
She only furrowed her brow and called the airport doctor to treat his wound.
“Edgar, we are done. I have the divorce papers. Please stop bothering me. Amelia’s issues are not my concern anymore. There is no need to talk to me about this.”
“You saved me, I am very grateful. This money is for you, consider it as your rescue fee. My flight is boarding soon, please don’t come looking for me again.”
With that, Stephanie took out a stack of money from her bag, placed it in his arms, and then left without looking back.
Watching her cold back, Edgar was completely stunned.
In the past, whenever she saw him injured, she would worry excessively and would take care of him until he fully recovered before she could
relax.
Today, he saved her life with his own, and she only left behind some money?
The sharp pain spread from deep within his heart, causing him to gasp in

agony. Nevertheless, he gritted his teeth and shouted at her.
“Stephanie, you can’t leave! Do you believe that if you walk away now, I will refuse treatment and die in front of you?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Stephanie hesitated for a moment.
A glimmer of light reignited in Edgar’s eyes as he continued, “Stephanie, my injuries were suffered for you. I am not lacking money, I only need you to take responsibility until the end.”
“I know you were disappointed in me because of what happened with Amelia. If you come back with me now, you will be able to see the current situation Amelia is in.”
“I no longer love her. I know all about the things she did to harm and bully you. I have already punished her. Can you please forgive me?”
“No good! Stephanie didn’t look back, just coldly replied with these words, then continued to walk forward and boarded the plane along with
the crowd.”
She had already given him enough chances, and each time he did not cherish it, each time he deeply hurt her, and it had nothing to do with Amelia.
Even without Amelia, there would have been someone else to do something similar.
The only thing that made her sad was that Edgar, who used to love her deeply, fell in love with someone else and firmly stood by that person, hurting her deeply.
The person who hurt her the most from beginning to end was Edgar.
Stephanie never planned to forgive her, never.
What about the grace of saving a life? In the past, she had almost been

tortured to death by him countless times, how should she repay these
debts?
