Chapter 590 Heart-Wrenching Pain
Seeing her tears, Seb frowned slightly, then lowered his head and slowly kissed away the tears on her cheeks with his lips.
His movements were so gentle, so gentle that it broke her heart, causing her tears to flow even more fiercely.
Gradually, his kisses could no longer keep up with wiping away her tears.
The next moment, he suddenly held her tightly, his lips quickly capturing hers, and then kissed her deeply.
The kiss was long, intense, wild, and passionate.
For a moment, Susan could only respond to him, accompanying him.
At some point, Susan suddenly pushed against his chest.
Breathless, he paused his actions, and she looked up to meet his questioning gaze.
Susan, without any of her usual shyness, shook her head and said, "No!"
Hearing this, Seb realized he had lost control.
He then released her, stepped back a bit to put some distance between their bodies, and frowned, saying, "I'm sorry."
Susan quickly turned her back to him, feeling an intense bitterness in her heart. Part of her longed to be held, to lose herself in the familiarity of his touch. But the ache in her heart was a stark reminder of their reality. Giving in now would only make letting go unbearable.
Susan adjusted her clothes and emotions before turning to look at him, forcing a smile and saying, "Hayden and Spring miss you terribly. How about we have dinner together tonight?"
Seb stared at her blankly and nodded.
Susan added, "One last dinner, just the four of us as a family."
Hearing this, Seb's face darkened.
"Shall we go to the court first thing in the morning to finalize the paperwork?" Susan asked, looking at him.
Seb didn't answer. He walked to the desk, reached for a pack of cigarettes, but after a moment's thought, he threw the pack back.
Then, with his back to her, he said, "Whatever you say."
Hearing this, although it was her own idea, Susan still felt very sad. From tomorrow, she and he would really be over.
The next moment, Susan held back her tears and said, "I'll leave now. Come back early tonight."
After saying this, Susan felt a lump in her throat. Before her tears could fall again, she quickly grabbed her bag and hurried out of Seb's office.
She ran out of the Prosperity Group building in one breath, turned to look at the towering structure, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She suddenly felt exhausted, turned around, and found a bench for pedestrians to sit down.
At this moment, Seb was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the people below moving like ants and the cars like matchboxes.
Susan rubbed her face and ran her fingers through her hair. Although she felt very sad, she still told herself, 'Susan, this isn't the first time you've faced such a blow. You're not a little girl anymore. You're a mother of two children. You have to be strong. Life must go on. You have to live strongly and live well!'
Then, Susan took out her phone and started calling the real estate agent.
"I want to rent an apartment, just for myself. A one-bedroom or two-bedroom is fine, as long as it's clean and well-equipped. I can move in tomorrow. The price doesn't matter."
That day, Susan didn't go to work. She was busy looking for an apartment and packing her things.
This time, she had reached the point where she had to pack. Looking at everything in the house that recorded their beautiful life, her heart grew increasingly sad.
At seven o'clock that evening, she heard the sound of a car outside.
Susan knew he was back.
That afternoon, she had been busy in the kitchen and didn't let Kathy help, hoping to make the last meal for Seb herself.
Hearing the children's joyful shouts from the kitchen, Susan knew he had come in.
"Daddy!"
"Daddy!"
Hayden and Spring ran quickly to Seb when they saw him.
Seeing the children, Seb bent down to pick them up and gave each of them a big kiss on their little cheeks!
"Daddy, where have you been these days? Mommy said you were busy with work. Do you not want Hayden and Spring anymore?" Hayden said, clinging to Seb's neck and acting spoiled.
"Daddy, I missed you!" Spring, who had just learned to say simple sentences, added.
Seeing the longing in his children's eyes, Seb felt very emotional and smiled, saying, "I was very busy recently. I'll spend more time with you from now on."
"Really?" Hayden was overjoyed to hear this.
At this moment, Kathy came out with a dish.
Seeing Kathy, Seb put the children down and patted Hayden's head, saying, "Hayden, I bought new toys for you and Spring. Go play with Mary!"
"Yay! New toys!" Hayden exclaimed and immediately took Spring's hand to go play with the new toys.
Seb watched Hayden and Spring walk away happily, a contented smile spreading across his face.
Then, Seb glanced at the dishes already set on the table and narrowed his eyes slightly, as they were all his favorite dishes.
At this moment, Kathy smiled and said, "Mr. Anderson, knowing you were coming back for dinner, Mrs. Anderson didn't go to work today and has been busy in the kitchen all afternoon!"
Hearing this, Seb looked towards the kitchen and saw Susan, wearing an apron, busy cooking. He couldn't help but be stunned.
Kathy stepped forward and smiled, saying, "Mr. Anderson, let me take your coat."
"Okay." Seb then took off his coat and handed it to Kathy.
Kathy took the coat and turned to leave.
At this moment, Seb, wearing a white shirt, slowly walked into the kitchen.
Susan had already noticed he was back, so she was a bit distracted while cooking.
Seeing him walk in from the corner of her eye, she felt her smile was a bit forced. "You're back?"
"Yeah." Seb nodded and stood in front of Susan, silently watching her cook.
With him standing beside her, Susan's hands trembled as she cooked, feeling very uneasy but reluctant to ask him to leave. After all, their time together was now measured in minutes.
At this moment, the oil was hot, and when Susan added the scallions, her hand shook, causing the oil to splatter onto the back of her hand!
