Chapter 10: Play dead
"Do not worry about the young madam, master. She probably overexerted herself and so she suffered from fatigue. She simply needed total rest to recover. If possible, she should stay away from stress and rest from any activities. Having a healthy diet is also recommended."
Dominic Zhu looked at Heaven, remembering the doctor's words this morning. He sat beside her on the hospital bed, looking at her profile. She still had the same pale complexion when he brought her here after she fainted when they were talking about their divorce in the garden.
'Fatigue?' he silently sneered. 'Just what did you do to get overfatigue?'
From his knowledge, Heaven hasn't even touched the broom for five years. There were too many servants in the house to do all the chores for her. He never even expected her to do any of that. He just expected her to take care of their son, which was obviously something she couldn't and wouldn't do.
All this woman did for the past five years was tend to herself. She only needed to take care of herself, but she could not even do such a simple task. The fact that she was now lying on a hospital bed due to fatigue irritated him to no end. Dominic felt bitterness swelled up in his chest.
'You already won. You are already getting back the freedom you think I stole.' His face crumpled with bitterness and inexplicable anger. 'Then why are you still like this?'
Was it better to see her jumping for joy after signing their divorce paper? To be truthfully honest, Dominic didn't know. It would be better if they just ended things quickly. The past had damaged them in so many ways. In that case, they could start healing from the bad decisions they had made in the past.
As Dominic was keeping his eyes fixed on his wife, unbeknownst to him, Heaven was already fully awake.
'Damn. I don't even need to open my eyes to know if someone is glaring daggers at me,'she thought. She kept her eyes closed the entire time, turning her head to the other side to avoid her husband's dark gaze. She could imagine the dark shroud enveloping him while glaring at her 'unconscious' body.
