Chapter 45

• Leonel massaged his temples roughly, his breaths becoming erratic. His heart continued to ache relentlessly. Chloe's words, which he had recently heard, truly wounded him. But upon further reflection, Chloe's comments were not without reason. It all started with Leonel's careless behavior in their marriage without considering how Chloe felt.
• Despite her efforts to please him, the image of him leaving Chloe alone kept spinning in his mind. "Forgive me, Chloe," he whispered.
• This pain was tormenting Leonel. He never imagined being treated by Chloe the way he had treated her. Now Chloe was candidly expressing her feelings, leaving him feeling so weak.
