Tyrone hesitated before stepping out of the car with Aella.

They faced each other on the overpass, looking down at the view below. She asked, “Why haven’t you left?”

Tyrone took her wedding ring out of his pocket, grabbed her hand, and shoved it back onto her finger.

He locked eyes with her. “Stay here if you want to study, but I’m not divorcing you.”

Aella yanked her hand free, ripped the ring off, and flung it over the railing with all her strength.

Tyrone’s chest tightened as his pupils shrank.

He instinctively reached out and yelled, “Aella, don’t!”

The diamond ring sparkled once in the night, then disappeared.

The moment it was gone, everything around them felt quiet.

Traffic rolled on below, lights flickering. Up on the overpass, they stood by the railing of the emergency lane, silent and staring at each other.

Snapping back, Tyrone grabbed her wrist again, his face dark. “Aella, that was our wedding ring!”

Aella tore herself loose, her voice cold and determined. “I want you gone from my life like that ring!”

Their eyes met. Tyrone froze, panic and shock flickering across his face.

His voice was low and tight. “Are you serious?”

Her face stayed blank as she drew a line between them. “We’ve known each other for over 20 years and been married for three. I’m done. I’m not being dramatic or unreasonable. I want a divorce.”

She had grown up in a wealthy family. So, she witnessed countless women tolerate their husbands‘ affairs and even secret children for the sake of family, children, or money.

Virginia was among them.

But Aella wouldn’t live that way.

Tyrone’s chest felt heavy.

He said, shakingly, “Even if you’re set on divorce, you have to come home first.”

She had always traveled with servants, even in university. It was her first time going so far alone.

Tyrone couldn’t relax.

Aella glared at him, her words sharp. “Don’t think I don’t see what you’re doing. You’re stalling the divorce and pushing me to go home because you’re afraid Edwin will go after Zera and her kid. You’re just doing this for your woman. Stop faking!”

His face went stiff. “Raine told you that?”

She said, “I did love you once, but I don’t owe you. You don’t get to use me.”

Tyrone moved closer, gripping her shoulders.

They stared at each other. He tried to sound calm. “Don’t listen to Raine’s nonsense.”

He’d promised Edwin not to divorce Aella for Zera and Orson.

Truth was, he’d never planned to divorce Aella anyway, so the promise cost him nothing.

Trying to change the subject and calm her down, Tyrone said, “You came all this way just to get a divorce. Did you even consider your parents? Your brother is still young and rebelling. Your parents aren’t young anymore. Their health is poor. They need you.”

Aella’s anger cracked as she thought of her family. “You drove me to this!”

He shook his head. “I know why you ran. You wanted me to pick you over Zera and send them away. But you—”

Before he could finish, Aella flung her bag aside and swung herself over the railing.‘

“Aella!”

Tyrone’s heart nearly stopped when he saw how serious she was.

She clung to the railing. As he moved closer, she let one hand slip off. “Stay back!”

Tyrone froze, hands up.

Her eyes were red and swollen as she shouted, “I’m not putting on a show! I’m not making you choose, and I never wanted you to dump Zera! I don’t love you anymore! You disgust me! Got
