However, he was never going to get that chance.

Once you missed a chance… you could never get it back. Some regrets were destined to be lifelong.

Martin Weiss drove back to the hotel Along the way, he could not help thinking about wh If he did not even have such strong feelings, then… what would he be left with?

It was just like the state he was in now. Even if he no longer felt the pain of not getting what he wanted, he felt empty as if he had lost something important.

When Martin Weiss pushed the hotel room door open, he saw that the lights in the room were still switched on. Kyla lay on the couch, still awake.

“You’re back,” she said. However, she was startled when she saw the bruises on his face that he had gotten from the fight.

She hurried forward with a worried look and asked, “What happened to your face? What happened? Have you… been drinking?”

As soon as she approached him, the smell of alcohol rushed to the tip of her nose.

Martin Weiss said, “I drank a little. Go to bed first. I’ll wash up.”

He walked over to the closet, got a change of clothes, and went into the bathroom.

The warm water washed over him. Besides his face, his body had endured many punches. There was a faint pain when the water washed over him.

‘Do I regret it?’ he asked himself suddenly.

He slowly raised his hand and pressed it against his heart. The empty feeling in his chest was still so vivid.

When Martin Weiss came out of the bathroom, he found that Kyla was still awake. She was sitting on the couch, waiting for him. A medical kit was on the coffee table in front of her.

“I asked for it from room service. You’re injured. You’d better apply some medicine,” said Kyla.

Martin Weiss coldly refused. “No.”

With that said, he was about to reach the bed when her hand grabbed his. She said, “Apply some medicine.”

He looked at her darkly. “I said no.”

She met his eyes. “But you said we’re married now, and your body doesn’t belong to you alone. It belongs to the family. Shouldn’t a husband take good care of himself for his wife and children?”

The look in his eyes changed slightly when he heard the words ‘husband’ and ‘wife’.

There was a worried look in her eyes that made him feel as if they were a real married couple and she was his wife who loved him deeply.

Kyla pressed Martin Weiss down on the couch. He sat almost obediently. Then, she opened the medical kit and began to apply medicine to his bruises.

She said as she applied the medicine, “You should be careful with your injuries. You shouldn’t let them come into contact with water right away, but… you’ve already taken a bath. You should be more cautious from now on, or your wounds will become inflamed.”

Her fingers smeared the ointment evenly over his face.

The warmth of her fingertips seemed to seep through his skin and went into his heart little by little.

Martin Weiss only felt as if he was flustered again.

Just then, her fingers began to pull his bathrobe open. He snapped back to his senses and grabbed her hand. “What are you doing?”

“Uh… I want to see if you have any injuries on your body. If there are, I can apply the ointment for you,”

she said. After all, “I’ll apply the ointment to the wounds on my body myself,” he said.

“But you can’t do it if they’re on your back,” she said. Then as if recalling something, she said quickly, “Well, actually… if Nelson is the one who’s hurt, I’d tell him to take off his shirt so I could apply the ointment for him too. You and Nelson are the same to me.”

She said it to avoid feelings of awkwardness, but the atmosphere got a little weird after she said it.

He peered at her. “What’s the matter? Do you think I’m the same as Nelson?”

“Uh… sort of.” At least… they were both males.

Martin Weiss took off his bathrobe and exposed his upper body, “Really? Are we really similar?” He could not explain why he cared so much about what she said.

It was as if he did not want him and their son to hold the same positions in her heart.

It was as if she did not think of him as her husband at all! Did she not feel anything even if she saw him entirely naked?

Kyla focused on the wounds on Martin Weiss’s body. They were not serious, but there were many wounds on his body.

One could tell that he must have gotten into quite a fierce fight outside today.

She immediately began applying the ointment for him. When she was done with his back, she went straight to the bruises on his chest.

Almost unconsciously, her head lay close to his chest as she carefully applied the ointment.

Martin Weiss stiffened instantly, only smelling her scent at the tip of his nose. It made him scared.

‘Yes, scared!’

It was as if something he could not control would happen if this went on.

“Alright, I’ve applied the ointment for you, but you need to apply it to your wounds twice a day. When you get up tomorrow morning, I’ll give you…” said Kyla. Then, she looked up and found that Martin Weiss’s face was pale. She froze and hurriedly said, “What’s wrong? Was I too forceful when applying the ointment just now and ended up hurting you?”

Martin Weiss only looked at Kyla in silence.

She got even more worried when he did not speak. She raised her hand to reach for his face, but he grabbed her wrist. “What do you mean by this? Are you concerned about me?”

Kyla said, “What’s wrong with me worrying about you? You… You said you want us to act like a normal married couple for a year.”

“Yeah, I said that, but… the look of concern on your face will make me think you’ve fallen for me. Kyla, do you have to overdo your acting?” His voice rang out coldly.

She froze. “Do you think I’m… acting?”

“Aren’t you? Are you telling me you’ve really fallen for me?” he asked in reply as if he was amused.

A bitter feeling surged within her. She had never acted in front of him. Could she tell him she was truly in love with him?

What was the point of telling him now?

Besides, she had already decided to bury her feelings for him.

in her heart forever and never tell him why she had decided to separate from him!

“Yeah, I’m… not in love with you. I’ll be careful,” she murmured as she looked down.

His fingers suddenly let go of her hand. “Then don’t behave in ways that’ll make me misunderstand.”

With that said, he put on his bathrobe again and got up.

However, the moment he got up, there seemed to be a familiar pain spreading from his heart.

It was as if he had felt the pain so many times… It was the pain he would feel whenever she said she did not love him!

‘I’ve forgotten my affections for her. Why… am I feeling this pain again?

‘Why…

The hands by the sides of his body clenched as Martin Weiss repeatedly asked himself. However, there was no answer!

William had told Jasper about many interesting places in Deer City, so much so that Jasper insisted on visiting them.

Therefore, Grace and Jason took the three children to visit the scenic spots in Deer City.

Looking at the three little ones, Grace thought her eldest son looked like a third wheel.
