Chapter: 789

“Are you really going to break off all ties with me?" Victor's heart ached so much that he could hardly breathe. It was as if a hole had been punctured in his heart, and blood was gushing from there.

He stared at her face, trying to search for some sort of answer.

But sadly, there was nothing. Her eyes were still as beautiful as the stars above, but there was no more love for him; not even a shred of pity.

Rachel appeared to be relieved now that she had said her piece and shut Victor out of her heart forever.

“Haven't we already broken up four years ago? Remember, I received a divorce agreement from you during my twenty-fourth birthday?" she asked.

“Isn't this what you wanted? Four years ago, we were still in each other's life because of our child. But now that we don't have a child anymore, and I heard that you're about to get married, I believe whatever it was between us is already gone."

Even though four years had passed since then, when she mentioned their child, Victor was overwhelmed by pain.

And as soon as Rachel looked at him, she saw the regret and sadness on his face, leaving her stunned.

‘Is he thinking of our child? Why does he look like he regrets something? What is it that he feels remorse over?'

However, the look on his face disappeared so quickly that Rachel couldn't figure it out in time. She pressed her lips, clenching the wishing pendant in her pocket. The sharp corner of the pendant nicked into her palm, bringing her back to her senses.

A moment later, Victor broke the silence.

"What if this isn't what

T want?"

Rachel was in deep thought but soon came to her senses.

"This is what I want," she said, the look in her eyes unwavering.

Before Victor could respond, she continued, "So, Mr. Sullivan, I hope you won't bother me anymore." She then looked away with her arms crossed.

“Rachel—"

"Oh, by the way, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to your wedding with Miss Salazar. I'm sure you wouldn't want me, your ex- wife, to be there, right? People love dramas, but I won't be a part of it. It's also an insult to your future wife. I hope the two of you could live happily. If we're done here, then I'm leaving. As for the Bennet Group's shares, you can think about it carefully and let

Ivan negotiate with me."

Rachel then gave him one last look before turning away and walking out.

Victor felt as if his heart was tightly gripped by a thorny vine. He stared at her when she walked away resolutely. It was a heavy feeling, making him ache all over.

When Rachel opened the door to the ward, two bodyguards stood in front of her, blocking her path.

She was not in a hurry, and she just stared at the floor with her hands in her pockets.

“Rachel, return to Sue Garden and I'll give you the Bennet Group's shares." Victor's voice sounded from behind her, gruff and deep.

Rachel turned to face him.
