He couldn’t shake this idea out of his head, as though it had been deeply planted in his mind.

Shen Luo’an sat on the edge of the hospital bed, cradling Little Moon in his arms. “I’m to blame for everything that happened today,” he confided.

Shen Manting’s eyes were closed, but her knuckles tensed up as she gripped the linen upon hearing Shen Luo’an’s confession.

“I have a terrible temper. I’m trying hard to change.”

Shen Luo’an had rarely let go of his ego and spoken this softly.

Shen Manting’s restless heart suddenly calmed down.

The fear, hatred, and disgust that she felt only a moment ago…

All these feelings seemed to have disappeared with the lull of his voice full of tenderness.

Shen Manting kept her eyes shut the whole time. She felt a dull ache in her heart.

She heard Shen Luo’an inhale deeply before uttering slowly, “I’ll try not to lose my temper in the future. The baby might be hungry. It’s time to feed him some milk.”

The calmness Shen Manting felt suddenly dissipated into thin air.

Such mockery!

She clutched the linen tightly. Tears rolled down her cheeks.

She remained silent, but her body trembled with anger.

She began to sob quietly. Her sobs were subdued yet audible and tinged with pain.

“You’re saying all this just so I’ll feed your son.”

Shen Luo’an’s body stiffened. He turned to glance at her.

Shen Manting buried her face in the linen, leaving only a small part of her pale forehead exposed.

“We’re both exhausted, Shen Luo’an. Why don’t we part ways amicably?”

Shen Luo’an’s heart sank.
