Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 273

Emma gave Aiden a long look. She still harbored feelings for him, but their relationship was beyond saving. It finally clicked what her father once told her, "You can't force a square peg into a round hole," and why he had been so against their marriage.

She used to think her father reluctantly agreed to their marriage because he was just tired. She found herself craving for more in ways she didn't even realize.

Before the marriage, she just wanted Aiden to pay a bit more attention to her. But after getting hitched, her desires weren't that simple anymore. She craved his constant presence, his unwavering support, and trust, especially when she was down. None of which she got.

They'd been married for a few months now, but his time with her was scarce. Even when she was pregnant, he didn't show any sign of joy. Ethan and Ines, on the other hand, despite a rushed marriage, were so blissful. Ethan was always there for Ines, come rain or shine.

She used to believe time could change everything. But, how wrong she was. Some men were just cold-hearted. No matter how much she gave, they just didn't give a damn. If only she knew this earlier, she wouldn't have put herself in this awkward situation.

"Aiden, let's get a divorce." Emma said calmly.

It was a well-thought-out decision. Better to set each other free than both be miserable. She had been too stubborn, blinded by her own emotions, and deaf to others' advice.

Aiden thought he misheard and looked at Emma in disbelief, "Emma, what did you say? I didn't catch that."

"I said, let's get a divorce. My father's gone, and me being the heir to the Galeana family is just in name. I'm useless to you. I'm willing to let go, so you can find your own happiness." Emma said calmly.

"Do you even know what you're saying?" Aiden looked at Emma, his gaze involuntarily fell on her baby bump.

"Aiden, let's get a divorce." Emma repeated with a determined look in her eyes.

"What the hell are you talking about? You're pregnant. What would people think if we divorce now?" Aiden said,

Hearing this, Emma felt even colder. He finally acknowledged her pregnancy, but how about his attitude towards her two near miscarriages? He was late the first time, and wasn't there when she was recovering in the hospital. The second time, he didn't show up at all until the next day.

As for his so-called reputation, she was willing to sacrifice hers, let alone his. All she wanted now was to give birth to her baby peacefully and raise the child on her own.

"I'll take the blame publicly. You don't have to worry about any backlash." She assured him.
