Chapter 0032 Aria … +25 BONUS You dont love me , Lucian , Aria said , looking straight into my eyes .
Not enough .
Maybe not at all .
Without love , even if wed had intimacy as often as physically possible , I wouldnt have gotten pregnant .
How do you know this is true ? I asked .
We could consulta Healer .
I had medical training .
Thats not the same thing as being a Healer .
If we went to Dr.
A- Dr.
A would tell you what I just said .
But you can ask her if youd like .
Why trust the woman about to be your ex- wife ? This isnt about trust , I said .
I just want to be sure .

Not by you , Aria replied in the kind of straightforward way that sent a knife through my gut .
I was responsible for Arias pain .
I was good at hurting others , it seemed .
First Sheila , now Ana But even if there was a way , Aria continued , I wouldnt seek it out .
Why ? Subtlety , she touched her stomach , perhaps thinking of the child that could have been .
Any child I bear deserves to be surrounded by love , I said .
I wouldnt teach them that a loveless marriage is a happy one .
When it isnt .
Ive suffered these past three years , Lucian .
Ive hid it well , I suppose , or maybe you never cared to look too closely .
But Im done now .
With this .
With you .
She turned away from me , showing me her back .
I was losing her .
No , I already lost her … I stepped closer to her .
Aria , please .
We can talk about this … Theres nothing left to say , she said , and I could have sworn I heard her voice crack .
She cleared her throat .
Then , when she spoke again , her voice was stronger .
Besides , Shella is waiting for you .
She was , but … damn it ! What did that matter at a time like this ? Id told Sheila Id be home early , but there was still time to fix things with Aria .
There had to be time .
I wasnt a failure .
I wasnt going to let this marriage fall apart .
Aria couldnt leave me .
If what shed said was true though … If shed been unable to conceive because of my inability to feel things … Gods , maybe I was the failure .
Guilt sliced through me so painfully I felt as if I might have been physically stabbed .
Aria .
Sheila and 1- Dont lie to me , Lucian .
Not anymore .
I didnt believe what you said before , about not being in a romantic 1/2 +25 BONUS relationship , but now I have proof Phat proof ? There couldnt be proof of a relationship that didnt exist .
It doesnt matter .
Dont you see ? Swiveling on her feet , she faced me again .
Tears hung in her eyes , making them spride in the starlight , but those stubbom tears did not fall .
Strong as she was , she held them back .
Im divorcing you , Lucian .
Thats what I want .
Accept it .
Please .
Sign the paperwork and let me go .
Dont let her go … Max whined in my mind .
You never wanted me when we were together , she said .
Why are you being so difficult now ? I wished I had an answer that would satisfy her .
Something that would change everything .
Instead , I could only stare and pray she could read my thoughts that she could see I genuinely liked having her around .
Even if it wasnt love , it was something .
She made my home better , she was good with the maids .
She made sure I had my tea in the office .
She looked out for me .
Now she was leaving Aria Let me go , she said again , and a single tear fell down her cheek .
