Chapter 8 Chapter 8 The heart is cold as stone

  • When he said this, Irma's face did not have the agility of the past, and her eyes were filled with still water.
  • Her heart also died completely with the dead child.
  • Hearing Irma, Frederic stopped and turned to look at her with a suspicious look.
  • Irma smiled sarcastically. Sure enough, only the 'divorce" could make his gaze stay on herself for a moment.
  • Irma wrinkled her nose, but she still looked up and smiled at him. 'Sit down and accompany me for a while. As long as I finish my talking to you, I will get the divorce done.'
  • Frederic froze for a moment, then pulled the chair and sat down beside her.
  • Her eyes were very dry, but she was so happy. It was the first time in five years that he was willing to listen to her calmly, although at the cost of ending this marriage.
  • She thought for a while yet found that there was nothing to say, and there were no happy memories between them.
  • 'Frederic, do you remember the scene we met for the first time? It rained a lot that night and we were all trapped in that ramen restaurant. I remember you looked so distant at the time. I had to stick like a limpet to get you sit down and have the ramen with me.'
  • Frederic was startled, and he thought of the rainy day in a trance. It was the day when Irma smiled and got him to have ramen together.
  • He was obviously cold enough, but she seemed to turn a blind eye to his indifference, lingering on him all the time, and tried on him with some dry humor.
  • In fact, he didn't like ramen, which is dirty and not nutritious at all.
  • However, Irma could not understand his silent refusal. She just went on and on, 'Blablablablablablablabla……" saying that he couldn't leave until she finished eating.
  • That was quite annoying, really…....
  • But it was also that encounter that made him investigate what happened ten years ago...
  • But Irma didn't know this at all. She thought their encounter was merely a romantic and lovely wonder.
  • When she wanted to laugh, she just pursed her lips together and smiled. When she lifted her eyes, which came across Frederic's indifferent ones.
  • She shrugged her shoulders and continued to perform her own one-man show. 'Later I fell in love with you. I chased after you for five years, but you were just SO, SO indifferent to me. But a year ago, we got married. Though I, I know that marriage is not what you want, but the moment I saw you putting the wedding ring on my hand, I was really happy, from the bottom of my heart.'
  • But when she looked down on Frederic's hand, it was empty.
  • Well, she ALMOST forgot that he lost the wedding ring on the day they got married.
  • It's been a year, and this whole marriage seems like a cage designed particularly for her.
  • Irma took a deep breath and thought the ring on her hand was ridiculous.
  • She lowered her head and dragged the ring down, handing it to Frederic, 'I'll give this back to you. It's meaningless for me to keep it anyway.'
  • Frederic pinched the ring, sneered, and threw the ring OUT of the window!
  • At that moment, Irma's numb heart hurt, again. She wanted to rush out to get it back, but she still held back in the end.
  • Her eyes dimmed little by little, as if Frederic threw away her heart instead of the ring.
  • She didn't want to say anything anymore, she directly took over the divorce agreement in Frederic's hand and signed her name.
  • She agreed with all the conditions proposed by Frederic.
  • Frederic was quite satisfied for this.
  • Suddenly he stepped forward to hug her waist and leaned to her lips with a smug smile, and his voice was full of charm, 'You are so obedient today, good girl. I will satisfy you once tonight in return for this!'
