Refusing To Be His Perfect Replica I Choose The Arranged Marriage

Chapter 28

Aveline's body didn't fall to the ground, someone pulled her back.

The person who supported her was not Alexander but Lucas. When she looked up, she saw Alexander standing not far away, coldly watching her fall, with no trace of concern in his eyes, only indifference. Of course, in his eyes, how could someone not be able to stand steadily on flat ground? He must have thought she was acting again.

He only had hatred left for himself, so how could he care about anything else?

It was Lucas who worried and asked,

Madam, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, just a little low blood sugar." A self-mockingly smiled and followed behind Alexander.

After a night, the yard was covered in snow. The servants of the old mansion didn't know where they

went, and no one took care of the accumulated snow in the yard. Aveline walked a short distance and was panting heavily.

She braved the wind and snow to get to the room, hoping to warm up. Alexander stood by the door, his eyes filled with mockery. "I

to admit, your acting skills have improved compared to before."

Back then, in order to keep him, Aveline used all the tricks she could, even resorting to crying, causing a scene, and threatening to commit suicide, which she had always despised.

Upon hearing this, Aveline felt irony and didn't explain. She just sneered and said, "Thank you for the praise."

With a calm expression, she walked past Alexander and entered the room. The comfortable heating in the room made her feel a little better.

She took off her thick down jacket, poured herself a glass of warm water, and leaned her body softly on the sofa before asking, "Tell me, are you going to divorce or not?"

"When it's time for a divorce, I will let you know. For now, you can stay here temporarily."

Aveline sat across from him, her expression calm. She played with the pom-pom on her hat with her fingertips.

"Alexander, on the seventh day after I gave birth prematurely, you proposed a divorce to me. I never 22:24

understood why you were in such a hurry until that day when I saw a child who looked like you. I realized that you were in a hurry to leave me so that Nora could have a family."

When Aveline said this, her voice trembled slightly. "In this past year, no matter how cold you were to me, I stubbornly used your past kindness to cover up your betrayal and heartlessness. Maybe you were just being playful for a moment, and I was your legally wedded wife. There must have been something wrong with me for you to ignore me. I can change, I can even tolerate your mistakes."

"Now that I think about it, how foolish I was. While you were enjoying your time with someone else's wife and child, I was waiting in that desolate home, waiting for someone who would never come back."

"It took me a year to accept this fact and understand how foolish I was. So, I'm letting you go. If you want to find your happiness, go ahead. If you want to give them a home, go ahead. I don't care anymore." Aveline stood up unsteadily and walked towards him, tears falling from her cheeks, dropping onto the cold floor.

She stopped in front of Alexander, looking at the man who sat upright with a calm face. Although he had no expression, his aura was cold and intimidating, as if he could explode in anger at any moment, like a strict headmaster.

In the past, this expression was only directed at others. Whenever he looked at her, there was always a hint of gentle warmth in his eyes that was hard to notice.

But now, she had become just another person to him.

So, she should have given up on this man a long time ago.

Aveline lowered her head, slowly opened her red lips, and on her face was a rare look of despair.

She said, "Alexander, I let you go, so please let me go too, okay?"

The almost pleading voice made Alexander's heart tighten, and he saw the exhaustion on Aveline's face.

It was like a dam on the verge of collapsing, standing tall amidst the rushing flood for many years without falling. It was thought that the dam would never collapse, but suddenly, a crack appeared.

In the moment it gave up, the whole body was covered by the flood, and the stones of the body were shattered by the rushing water.

Giving up is always easier than persevering.

When the entire dam was engulfed by the flood, no one knew how long it had persisted, how difficult it Chapter 28

had been to hold on, and how sad it must have been to give up the belief it had held for so long.

She was right. Besides revenge, one of the reasons Alexander was eager for a divorce was to have their son registered under his own household registration.

After nearly a year of struggle, Aveline completely let go of him in this moment, and Alexander realized that he wasn't as happy as he had imagined.

"If you want me to spare you, dream on! From today onwards, you will stay in the Sterling Mansion. In this lifetime, you belong to me, and even in death, you will only be a dead person of mine."

Aveline's tears fell on his face, and Alexander's heart seemed to have become damp as well.

He impatiently took out his phone and opened a photo, which showed the scene of Ryan being taken away by an ambulance.

"If you have any contact with this man again, the next time lying there will be his whole family. Aveline, don't even think about living a satisfying life in this lifetime.'

"You bastard! If you hate me, come at me, why do you have the right to treat Ryan like this?" Aveline's slap was stopped by Alexander before it could land.

His eyes were filled with ruthlessness, "You care about him so much? Don't forget, as long as we're not divorced, you will always be Mrs. Sterling.'

"..."

Before Aveline could explain, her body suddenly became light, and Alexander had lifted her up.

The man's whole body exuded a violent aura as he roughly threw her onto the master bedroom's bed. Fortunately, the mattress was customized according to her preferences, soft and elastic, so she wasn't injured.

But being thrown so roughly by the man, her already dizzy head spun even more, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Her body weakly collapsed on the bed, fear evident in her eyes as she looked at the man standing by the bed.

The distinct joints of Alexander's fingers impatiently loosened his tie. He approached the trembling woman on the bed with a near-cruel smile, as if he was being tempted by a devil.

"Aveline, have you been with him these past few days? Did he touch you?"

Chapter 28

The address he hadn't used in almost two years came out of his mouth, and Aveline felt it was perverse, causing her whole body to break out in goosebumps.

The man seemed like a beast bound by iron chains, about to break free and pounce on her. Aveline shook her head and tried to explain, "We're just friends, not as vile as you think."

"Vile? Huh..." A chilly smirk appeared on his cold lips as he reached out and grabbed Aveline's foot. Aveline struggled against the discomfort, but her strength was like a punch on cotton, completely ineffective.

How could she know that Alexander had searched everywhere these past few days, not sleeping for

more

than ten hours in total over several nights?

With his eyes filled with hatred for so long, he was like a demon who had absorbed a lot of negative energy, in desperate need of an outlet.

He took off Aveline's shoes and socks, a woman he hadn't touched for hundreds of nights. His blood rushed to his head, and his black pupils were consumed by desire.

Aveline knew all too well what that kind of gaze meant. She trembled and pleaded, "No, Alexander, you can't..
