03 46 % Reporters flooded toward me , microphones nearly shoved in my face .
Ms.
Barrison , are you the wife of Mr.
Lyon , who has been out of the public eye for so long ? Ms.
Barrison , was this all planned ? Did you intentionally break up Mr.
Lyon and Ms.
Phelps ? One question after another drowned me .
With the help of my colleagues , I finally managed to retreat backstage .
I looked at the brooch on my collar , and an inexplicable pain surged within me .
Fabian … All these years , yet you still didnt understand me .
By the time I returned home , it was already ten at night .
Fabian was sitting on the sofa , his face cold .
Julie , sitting beside him , was sobbing softly .
When she saw me , her sobs grew louder .
Palma , you didnt have to embarrass me like that in front of everyone , she whined , her voice full of grievance .
I couldnt help but laugh .
She was really good at playing the victim .
Ignoring her , I walked upstairs to pack my things .
Behind me , I heard Fabians voice .
Palma , our marriage isnt a joke .
I hope you think this through .
His voice was distant and cold .
D 46 % 08:34 Mon , 10 Feb MB B I quickened my movements as I packed .
Finally , when I snapped the suitcase shut , I turned and met Fabians gaze .
Fabian , Ive thought it through .
Please sign the divorce papers as soon as possible .
Without waiting for a response , I grabbed my suitcase and walked past him , heading downstairs .
For the first time , Fabian followed me , his voice sounding urgent .
Palma , Julies all alone .
Whats wrong with me giving her a little more ? You have everything already .

What more do you need from her ? Palma , are you really this petty ? I stopped in the living room .
Julie was still sitting on the sofa , tears falling freely .
Fabian , maybe I should leave .
Dont fight with Palma , she said , getting up with a limp and heading for the door .
Fabian rushed to help her , and they began pulling at each other .
I felt a headache coming on .
This was not the first time I had witnessed this kind of scene .
In the past , I wouldve been frantic , demanding Julie leave and accusing Fabian of all his wrongdoings .
But now , I just wanted to leave .
I coldly placed my suitcase in the trunk , quickly got into the car , and drove away .
In the rearview mirror , I caught a glimpse of Fabians stunned expression .
When he was nothing more than a distant black dot , I let out a long sigh .
It felt as though a heavy stone had been lifted from my chest .
By the time I got home , my parents were waiting at the door .
Dad wrapped me in a tight hug , his voice filled with concern .
Take care of yourself .
Ill handle the rest .
I nodded , tears streaming down my face .
Mom hurriedly draped a fur coat over my shoulders and held my hand tightly as she led me inside .
I had barely sat down when Fabians messages arrived .
[ Where are you ? Why didnt you tell me you were pregnant ? ] [ How dare you make the decision to abort my child ! ] [ Palma , say something ! ] I read the messages but didnt respond .
I set my phone down and accepted the dessert my mom had handed me .
The sweetness filled me , and for the first time in five years , I felt truly at ease .
Just as I was savoring the moment , the doorbell rang .
D Fabian stormed in , his face filled with rage .
When he saw my parents , his anger seemed to subside slightly .
Im here to take Palma home .

He sat down on the sofa after speaking .
Dad snorted in response .
Fabian , we dont need your family to survive .
Weve known all along how much my daughter has suffered these five years of marriage .
Shes kind hearted , so she didnt hold it against you .
But Im her father , and I wont stay silent .
Dads words hit home , and Fabian sat frozen on the sofa , stunned .
He hadnt expected my father to react this way .
In the past , whenever I ran away from home and he came to take me back , Dad would always send us off with kind words .
But this time , it was different from what he had imagined .
Fabians gaze landed on me , his mouth opening and closing , unable to say a word .
The door opened , and Julie ran in , her face streaked with tears .
Mr.
and Mrs.
Barrison , its all my fault .
I shouldnt have upset Palma .
Please forgive Fabian .
Im begging you .
She fell to her knees , and Fabian rushed to help her up .
I watched the scene unfold before me .
Fabian , if you send Julie away , Ill go home with you , I said , my voice steady .
