The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 319 Splitting in Two

Chapter 319 Splitting in Two

His heart had split in two-he’d fallen for both of them.

And he hated himself for it. He knew how pathetic it was, how disloyal, how shameful.

But none of that seemed to matter anymore. His heart was in chaos, and no amount of guilt could put it back

together.

Night after night, he missed Leila. And yet, he couldn't let go of Lily either.

At that moment, a shameless thought crept into his mind.

He didn’t want to divorce Lily.

Even if she'd already moved on, even if she had a fiancé she adored and was clearly ready to marry, he still

selfishly, shamelessly wanted to hold onto their marriage.

“Lily, can we not...” ...get divorced?

Before he could finish, Lily suddenly shoved him away with all the strength she had. She staggered out of bed,

practically sprinted to the trash can, and collapsed beside it, heaving miserably.

James froze.

The truth was, Lily actually liked kissing him. When their lips met, when their skin touched, she felt a special kind

of happiness and satisfaction.

His kisses were gentle, and his body was always warm. He didn’t smoke, stayed healthy, and kept himself clean.

His breath was fresh, his scent light and comforting. Being close to him just felt good-safe, easy, and completely

addictive.

But lately, the pregnancy nausea had been brutal. No matter how much she wanted to stay close, when it hit,

there was nothing she could do.

Nothing cup-but her stomach kept churning. She kept dry heaving, her body shaking, curled over the trash

can like the world was spinning.

Seeing her collapsed on the floor, weak and clinging to the bin in pain, James's face darkened instantly.

He knew it-he’d kissed her without consent. It had been abrupt, inappropriate, and completely out of

line.

But still, he hadn't expected this-he’d actually kissed her to the point of making her sick.

Did she hate him that much?

James shut his eyes, feeling a deep, gnawing shame.

He couldn't let go of Leila.

In the dead of night, he always ended up opening their chat window, rereading their messages over and over,

running his fingers along her cartoon profile picture, completely obsessed.

Chapter 319 Splitting in Two

But a heart was only supposed to hold one person.

He missed Leila-desperately-but he couldn't stop being drawn to Lily.

What kind of man did that make him? He clenched his fists. A weak, selfish, low-life scumbag. No better than

trash.

No wonder Lily had literally gagged from his kiss.

The man who used to be so composed and strong now stood there a wreck, too ashamed to even look her in the

eye.

Still, he'd been the one who crossed the line. He'd kissed her without warning. He'd ripped her dress. He was the

one who ruined everything. The least he could do was face it like a man. Pretending nothing happened and

running away would only make it worse.

He opened his eyes again-those sharp, pain-filled eyes—and spoke with a hoarse voice. “Lily... I'm sorry. |

shouldn't have kissed you like that.”

His gaze dropped-and that’s when he saw her.

Her white dress was ruined. Torn by his own hands.

And beneath it... There wasn’t much left covering her. She'd been in such a rush to get to the trash can, she

hadn’t had tto grab anything to cover herself. Her skin, her curves-everything was exposed. Soft. Beautiful.

Vulnerable.

James looked away, flustered and ashamed. His voice cracked as he kept apologizing. “I-I shouldn't have ripped

your dress. | shouldn't have touched you. I-”

He squeezed his eyes shut again, unable to finish the sentence. The guilt was eating him alive.

“It’s fine. | know it’s the aftereffects of that drug Wesley gave you. You're still dealing with it.”

She didn’t blhim. She knew he wasn’t himself.

And honestly, she'd let it happen. She'd wanted it too. He didn’t owe her an apology.

She opened her mouth to say something, but her stomach turned again. She grabbed the trash can and started

gagging, her face drawn tight with discomfort.

James couldn't hide the look in his eyes. The guilt and shcoming off him were so strong, it felt like they filled

the entire room.

James's face darkened even more, and the shin his eyes deepened.

With her dry heaving echoing behind her words, she sounded anything but convincing.

But even if she said she wasn’t disgusted-even if she tried to be gentle about it-her body had already betrayed

her. The way she reacted said it all.
