Chapter 26
In the hospital bed, Edgar finally opened his eyes and, at the moment he saw Stephanie, he felt surprised and joyful.
“Stephanie! You came to accompany me, does it mean you forgive… me.”
The moment he saw Zayden, he felt like a bucket of ice water had been poured from head to toe, extinguishing the excitement in his heart instantly.
Matching outfits, fingers intertwined, matching rings.
These incidents felt like countless knives deeply piercing into Edgar’s heart.
He stared fixedly at their intertwined hands, almost squeezing the words
ut from deep within his throat:
“Stephanie, what is the meaning of this between you and him? Are you….. are you joking with me? This joke is not funny at all!”
Stephanie, however, remained calm and naturally leaned in to kiss Zayden.
“Isn’t it obvious yet? We got married, just yesterday. From now on, please don’t come to disturb me anymore. I don’t want to affect my family and happiness.”
When these words were spoken, Edgar felt as if his heart was bleeding.
“Stephanie, what’s so great about him? He treats you poorly and doesn’t even understand or love you. I’ll take you to divorce him!”
Ignoring his own injuries, he directly pulled out the needle, got out of

bed, grabbed her hand, and walked out.
Zayden expressionlessly held his hand and forcefully pried open his fingers one by one, exerting so much force that his fingers were almost
broken.
“Edgar, I knew her very well. In just one day, I could remember all her likes and little habits. We shared a common career, spoke the same language. Is love really that important?”
“If it’s important, I’can try to love her. As long as you can stop bothering her.”
He squinted his eyes slightly, but his gaze was unusually firm.
Stephanie was taken aback, but she simply nodded in agreement.
“Edgar, it’s better to be with anyone else than with you. I don’t care if he loves me or not, I just want to feel happy.”
“If you appear in front of us again in the future, we will kiss in front of you once. As long as you can keep watching, we can keep doing it. You can give it a try.”
Edgar’s heart was twisted like a knife, his eyes filled with sadness.
The wounds on the body were almost all torn open, both physically and mentally in pain, hurting so much that it was almost impossible to breathe.
He took a few unsteady steps before slowly sitting on the bed, looking at her with despair.
“Stephanie, do you really hate me that much? Do you hate me enough to marry someone you don’t love? No matter what I do, will you never forgive me?”
“Yes! Stephanie replied without hesitation.”

In order to pierce his heart, Zayden added, “Not loving now doesn’t mean not loving in the future.”
Edgar chuckled bitterly, roaring, “Get out! All of you, get out! From now on, I will never appear in front of you again, and I hope you won’t either!”
“Zayden, if you mistreat Stephanie, I will not hesitate to take her away from you!”
He didn’t say the rest of the sentence, but Zayden understood his meaning and casually nodded at him, leaving with Stephanie.
As Edgar said, he no longer appeared in front of them, only in the corners they did not know, quietly watching their lives.
At first, Stephanie and Zayden were just in a marriage of convenience.
However, after this project was completed, Zayden quickly came up with a new project and approached her for collaboration.
The two of them temporarily forgot about the divorce.
After repeating a few times, Stephanie also understood his scheme and tore up the marriage agreement in front of him.
“If you didn’t want a divorce, you should have just said so instead of keeping it all bottled up inside. I had no idea.”
Zayden’s lips curved up in a faint smile, “Okay.
He also tore up the marriage agreement, and they spent the rest of their lives together.
