Chapter 47 Embracing Life's New Beginning

Isabella, being a medical student, was well aware of the side effects of chemotherapy. She could understand Avery's decision. Many people didn't die from cancer itself but from the side effects of chemotherapy. It was too agonizing and painful.

She couldn't selfishly let Avery bear it. Maybe gritting her teeth and enduring would only make her leave even faster.

Isabella hugged Avery from behind, tears silently streaming down her face.

"Alright, I'll be with you."

Tears gradually dampened Avery's nightgown. "You must have been in so much pain, right? I'm so sorry. I can't believe I knew nothing about this."

"It's been better these past few days. Thank you, Bella. I don't want to leave alone. Originally, I wanted Jacob to accompany me. But now, things have turned out like this. We probably won't have any ties left." When Isabella mentioned Jacob, she felt a surge of anger. "Avy, someone vandalized his sister's grave, and there are even photos of you holding a hammer. Do you think it might be someone deliberately framing you?"

"Besides Layla, there wouldn't be anyone else." Avery was very clear about this. Ever since Jacob agreed to accompany her for a month, this incident happened. It was definitely related to Layla. "You know it's her. Why are you so calm?"

"From last year until now, Layla has used many methods to force me to divorce Jacob. To be honest, her tricks aren't considered clever. Jacob isn't blind to these little tricks. Yet every time, he wholeheartedly stood on Layla's side. At first, I would try to argue based on reason. But later, I realized that right or wrong doesn't matter. His favoritism is what matters."

Isabella, seeing Avery's diminished spirit, continued to rally her, "But this time is different. If it's really her who desecrated Liran's sister's grave, even if you want a divorce, don't let her off so easily." "Bella, the issue between Jacob and me isn't Layla. It's the death of his sister. We can't resolve the hatred between us unless we can bring her back to life. And even if we could, we wouldn't be able to be together."

"I understand what you mean, but Avy, don't think it's the Adams family's fault and let him mistreat you. His sister's death shouldn't be an excuse for him to cheat. His betrayal is disloyalty! Leaving you and your child to save Layla is his injustice! I admit that the previous Jacob was indeed good to you. But you can't linger in the past forever."

Isabella patiently advised, "Avy, a person's life only happens once. Even if his sister's death really is related to your father, it has nothing to do with you. Don't rush to confess. You ask me if I've let go of William? I can tell you that one day, I will definitely let go completely. But for you, whether it's one day or one month left, you have to live for yourself."

"Live for myself..."

The knot that had been entangled in her heart suddenly unraveled.

Although Avery didn't sleep well that night, whenever she dozed off, she would dream of Jacob turning into a devil, strangling her neck.

She woke up several times, and the last time she woke up, it was just dawn.

Avery sat up, absentmindedly touching the spot on her neck. Even if they couldn't grow old together, she didn't want to reach the point where they couldn't stand each other anymore.

Looking at Isabella, who was sleeping peacefully beside her, Avery got up and left the room quietly.

The entire city looked especially beautiful under the cover of heavy snow. Even the sea had ceased its uproar, stretching itself carefreely in the sunlight.

Several unidentified seagulls flew by in the sky, braving the cold wind. In the distance, ships were honking their horns as they sailed.

The world was still beautiful, and it hadn't changed because of anyone's departure.

Avery made a decision.

She sent a message to Jacob. This time, no one would break their promise.

When Jacob saw her, she was wrapped in a white down jacket, wearing a fluffy hat and snow boots, bundling herself up tightly.

It made him wonder, was she always this sensitive to the cold?

His gaze landed on her neck. Her skin was fair and delicate, with slight indentations if even a little force was applied.

Avery's neck was wrapped in a thick knitted scarf. She stood under a pine tree covered in snow, looking as pure as a little elf.

In fact, Jacob cared about her arm. Did she recover well after losing so much blood last night?
