The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 907: Let Her Leave
"I’m not that strong, nor am I invincible... You’re so unpredictable, suspicious, and irritable. Of course, I will waver, even doubt myself, but..." She took a deep breath and continued, "When he returned last time, I was indeed happy at first, but later, when I thought you might never appear again, I felt extremely panicked... It’s true, I do hate you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love you!"
Because love breeds hate, because she loves him, she hates his suspicion, hates his distrust, hates that he repeatedly hurts her heart with childish actions.
Feelings are inherently complicated, especially when she’s facing someone as complex as him.
She doesn’t have the strong will to sort out all her feelings clearly.
The only thing she can be sure of is that if he truly disappeared from her life, she would be deeply saddened.
Yan Sijue’s muscles were intensely tense.
After a long time, he grabbed her hand and forcefully pulled it away.
Mu Yiliang felt all her strength suddenly vanish, sitting there dazed like a doll that lost all its life force.
Yan Sijue turned around and wrapped her body with the blanket, his voice raspy: "That Sophie wasn’t deliberately sought by me, I saw you were jealous, so I intentionally indulged her. I... need enough evidence to dare believe maybe I have a place in your heart."
Mu Yiliang stared at him blankly, almost doubting she was hallucinating.
He awkwardly turned his gaze away, his voice raspy: "Rest early, I’ll go to the next room."
Mu Yiliang finally reacted, clinging to his arm, her eyes pleading.
He clenched his lips, eventually breaking free from her grasp, put on his robe, and turned away.
Mu Yiliang sat wrapped in the blanket for a long time, her mind replaying his sort-of-explanation.
It seemed like, since the wedding, this was the first time he revealed his inner vulnerability.
Mu Yiliang suddenly remembered long ago, when they hadn’t come together yet, she rejected him time and again, so when she finally told him she’d fallen in love with him, he was reluctant to believe it.
At that time, he didn’t completely disbelieve her; it was just that his fragile heart needed ample evidence to truly believe, rather than doubting her, he was doubting himself.
She smiled bitterly, both helpless and heartbroken. But the resentment in her heart eventually evaporated.
How could she truly bear to hate him?
...
The following day, when Mu Yiliang got up, she noticed the servants looked at her somewhat differently. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Confused, Mu Yiliang glanced at Ada for an explanation.
Ada dared not delay and quickly explained in a low voice: "Sir instructed that if Sophie comes close to him again, she’ll be dismissed immediately. Also, Sir said you are the mistress of the manor, having absolute authority over personnel decisions. Anyone, including myself, if you’re displeased with them, you can fire them and select more suitable replacements."
Mu Yiliang was stunned.
She recalled her accusations against Yan Sijue last night; perhaps he took them to heart, leading to this decision?
"Madam, yesterday... was my fault." Ada pursed her lips, "If you feel Sophie is unsuitable, I’ll inform her to leave right away."
