Quinn was momentarily taken aback. Then, she heard Trent continue. “Also, you should make it clear that Sidonie is also your friend. You asked me to protect Sidonie at that time because you were concerned for her safety.”

Quinn almost thought she had misheard. “Trent, have you no shame? How could you even utter such words?” Did he realize that when he pushed me aside amidst the gunfire, and I turned only to see him protecting Sidonie, just how disappointed I felt?

Quinn thought that after three years of marriage, even if Trent didn’t love her, there would at least be some semblance of

affection

However, it was in that moment that she truly understood. When crisis struck, Trent could abandon her without a second thought.

“Sidonie finally becomes a co–pilot after much difficulty.” Trent said. “If such an incident were to occur, it could damage her reputation and hinder her future promotions.”

Quinn was tempted to applaud him in praise. He’s so considerate of Sidonie, yet he never thought about how she had abandoned him Jin his most desperate times. Meanwhile, 1. his wife, had accompanied him through the establishment of our business and endured hardships

together!

“I refuse, uttered Quinn bluntly.

“What?” Trent was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Quinn to reject him so outright.

“I won’t lie to the public. We both know the truth. It wasn’t a misunderstanding, and Sidonie is certainly not my friend!” Quinn said coldly.

With a stern expression, Trent frowned. “Quinn, are you trying to harm Sidonie?”

“It was your forgetfulness of your marital status and your affair with her that ruined her!” Quinn spoke bluntly.

“I didn’t cheat, and I certainly didn’t betray you. She and I are just friends!”

“Your friend sure is something, isn’t she? You’d stay out all night for her, and she can easily summon you with just a single phone call.”

“That’s simply because Sidonie had just returned to the Jexburgh and became a female pilot. She had quite a few social engagements, and I was merely accompanying her,” Trent explained.

“So, you mean to tell me that you could even stand me up when I was collecting my parents‘ ashes, just to keep her company?” Quinn asked sharply.

“Are you trying to dredge up the past?” Trent was indignant. “All you need to do is say a few words, and you can help Sidonie. What’s so difficult about that for you?”

With a cold gaze. Quinn observed the man before her. How could he speak so nonchalantly? What’s so difficult about that for me? Is this just a matter of a few words?

“If you care so much about Sidonie, why didn’t you choose to divorce when she first came back?” Quinn asked.

“What?” Trent was taken aback.

*Back then, if you wanted a divorce, all you had to do was tell me that you loved Sidonie. I would never have made things difficult for you,” Quinis said, “Now, Sidonie’s reputation would naturally be unscathed.”

Trent was displeased and said, “I won’t divorce. I remember the vows I made when we got married, Quinn. I told you, after our marriage. I will never let you down!”

To Quinn, the phrase “I will never let you down” sounded like a mere joke.

“Trent, your refusal to divorce wasn’t due to any vows, but because you couldn’t bear the stigma of abandoning your wife, who stood by you during your rise to success. You’re greedy, wanting to be with your first crush and a good reputation: If you truly respected me, how could you let your friend belittle and humiliate me like that? Even on the day I was supposed to

bring home my parents‘ ashes, you could just stand me up, all because Sidonie’s mom had a minor ailment like a twisted ankle Trent, those were my parents‘ I couldn’t even bring them back to their own home!”

This vehement protest gradually drained the color from Trent’s face.

It was as if he had been struck by something, and after a long while, he finally said, “I understand. You’ve been through a lot. Let’s do this. This weekend. I’ll accompany you to pay our respects and apologize to them. I shouldn’t have left you to retrieve their ashes alone.”

Quinn knew that this was Trent’s way of currying favor.

She was set to officially divorce Trent in about twenty days, so she really didn’t need him to accompany her to pay respects to her parents.

Nevertheless, Quinn felt that Trent indeed owed her parents an apology.

now.

She began to pack up everything related to her in the house.

Her wardrobe and jewelry collection were not extensive. Together with Trent, all they owned was a pair of inexpensive wedding rings.

Due to Trent’s desire to keep their marriage a secret, the couple didn’t usually wear their wedding rings.

Once, she didn’t care whether the wedding ring was cheap. All that mattered was his sincerity. But now, she understood that in his heart, she was probably as insignificant as the cheap wedding ring.

Suddenly, Quinn’s phone began to ring. It was a call from Laura.
