After taking three showers, he finally walked out from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He went to the closet and opened it to look for clothes but…

Where were his clothes?

shehnaaz’s clothes were neatly arranged in the closet, but he could find none of his.

When he left the house in the morning, his clothes were still there.

He turned around and found out that not only his clothes, but also his toothbrush, razor, cups and all of his possessions had disappeared.

Still naked, he angrily reached out to pull up the sleeping shehnaaz, “Woman, where did you put my stuff?”

shehnaaz was in a daze since her sleep was suddenly disturbed. She raised her head in bewilderment and her thick eyelashes were quivering. She mumbled in a weak and almost inaudible voice, “Siddharth?”

He was already losing his temper and didn’t have the patience to exchange pleasantries with her, “Where’s my stuff?”.

she blankly stared at him for a few seconds. She seemed distracted and unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, before suddenly smiling sadly.

“I send them all away, they’re all gone. Weren’t you not coming back?”

He gnashed his teeth in anger, “When did I say I wasn’t coming back?”

The tears gathered in her eyes blurring her vision, but stubbornly refusing to fall.

“The last time you left me for 97 days, but only came back for one night. The time after that you were gone for 68 days, but only got back to get something before leaving again. The following time you disappeared for 103 days, but only drove until stopping at the door to have your manager tell me you were going back to filming again…”

He was dumbfounded. He opened his mouth to talk, but soon closed it again. He didn’t know what to say.

shehnaaz sadly stared at him with her stubborn and tear filled red eyes, “You will leave me today, and the next time we meet will probably be at the divorce. No, maybe all I will see will be the divorce papers. I decided to pack your things and send them earlier to Adith, did I do anything wrong?”.

Not at all.

He really planned to live with the crew for the remaining two months of their contract, and simply send shehnaaz the divorce agreement papers when the time is up.

shehnaaz abruptly covered her face with the quilt to block her soft sobs with the fabric, “Don’t bother me again, why do I drink so much wine to forget you if I still end up seeing you. The moment I leave home I see you in advertising posters, when I want to shop I see the products you’re endorsing, when I turn on the TV all I can see are the dramas you’re acting in. Even in my sleep you won’t let me go and still appear in my dreams.”

He felt his chest was blocked and painful as if he was suffocating.

He snorted and said, “Do I look so unreal? You think you are dreaming?”

shehnaaz quietened down for a while before sobbing faintly, “If it wasn’t a dream, how could you talk so much to me? You hate me, you hate me, you hate me.”

This sentence sounded so resigned and painful it could break one’s heart.

He heard what she said and unexpectedly felt sullen, and he felt sullen because of this woman he hated.

He had a bad temper to begin with, and now he just couldn’t stand shehnaaz suddenly turning into a little daughter-in-law, hiding to quietly cry her heart out in weak sobs.

How did he not notice this woman was so fragile and vulnerable before, so damn disappointing.

shehnaaz kept on crying until her sobs gradually quieted down.

He hesitated for a while before walking over and pulling away her quilt. She had fallen asleep.

He angrily shook shehnaaz, “Woman, wake up!”

shehnaaz was already tired, and he came it might have caused additional negative influence making her body immediately started burning up.

Now in a semi-conscious state, she couldn’t answer him at all.

“She has a fever and still knows to drink, one day she might just kill herself without anyone knowing.”

He coldly stared at her, still in his half naked state when he suddenly felt cold air on his bare skin. Is the heating even turned on?

He reached out for the remote control of the air conditioner, but no matter what button he pressed there was no response.

The air conditioner turned out to be broken, no wonder the place wasn’t heated.

It was already late autumn, and the nights were especially cool.

He frowned and went to check his room only to find out that his air conditioner was working just fine.

Although his possessions were sent away, the furniture was still there.

He directly laid down on his bed, he didn’t feel cold anyway. And as for shehnaaz, he simply didn’t care, she had nothing to do with him.

He pulled the quilt up to cover his body and went to sleep. After two days of restless work, he felt extremely tired.

However, contrary to what he thought, he couldn’t sleep. No matter how many times he turned over, all he could think about was shehnaaz. His head was full of her miserable crying appearance and her plaintive sobs.

When had he ever seen her so weak and vulnerable?

It was as if her hard outer shell hard broken to uncover the softness laying inside.

Moreover, she was having a fever without any heating in her cold room. He couldn’t help but think about how he heard people could die from an untreated fever.

That woman was a living disaster, she wouldn’t die that easily.

He turned over a few more times before furiously getting up and rushing to shehnaaz’s room.

The damn woman wasn’t even behaving in her sleep. She uncomfortably laying uncovered in her bed, with the quilt she kicked away laying by her feet. The blood and warmth was violently rushing to her cheeks making them as red as a monkey’s butt.

She was simply looking for death.

He reached out to feel her forehead and found it scalding hot.

shehnaaz was feeling utterly uncomfortable, but the sudden coolness on her forehead was very pleasant. She rubbed her forehead against his cool palms and lightly groaned in satisfaction. Her appearance was that of a little spoiled cat that couldn’t fall asleep.

He felt her gentle movement. Her smooth skin was tenderly brushing against his rough palms, and her bangs lightly scraped the back of his hand, causing his hands to shudder slightly.

He quickly retracted his hand and shook it a few times, as if trying to get rid of the subtle sensation shehnaaz left on his hand.

Next, he promptly pulled out another antipyretic from the medicine cabinet. This time, he was resolved to feed shehnaaz the medicine.

He poured a cup of warm water, stuffed the medicine into her mouth, then propped her head to feed her the water to help with swallowing the pill.

As a result, shehnaaz’s face instantly paled and looked on the verge of vomiting again.

He didn’t know what was wrong, and all he was preoccupied with was how to successfully feed her the medicine.

Before he could realize what he was doing, his lips had already sealed her soft and warm ones, roughly forcing her to swallow the medicine.

shehnaaz had difficulty breathing and quickly swallowed the pill.

He felt like he was struck by lightning. He stiffly held on his kissing motion for a few seconds before withdrawing and pushing shehnaaz away. Her hair scattered on the bed as he muttered, “ Thu.. Thu.. , I must have been possessed.”

He quickly ran to the bathroom to rinse off his mouth and gargle until he felt it was clean enough, only to find out the next second that the cup he was drinking from was shehnaaz’s…

Siddharth angrily put down the cup and left the bathroom with a sullen expression, like the world owed him 8 billion.

He returned to shehnaaz’s side and grumbled, “I really want to choke you to death and put an end to all my troubles.”

He picked up shehnaaz draped in her quilt and took large strides towards his room.

He put her down on his bed, put a pillow in the middle, and laid himself on the other side of the pillow.

“Just take it as me helping out out of the goodness in my heart. Anyway, after today, we won’t have anything to do with each other.”

Tomorrow, he’ll leave for good and directly live with the filming crew. Two months later, he’ll send her the divorce papers, and the most humiliating 5 years of his life will finally come to an end.

Meanwhile, shehnaaz was feeling muddle headed because of her fever, nevertheless, she still had some awareness. She had been accustomed to sickness from a young age but no one knows it, so she could bear with a small fever.

She quietly made sure that Siddharth was asleep by listening to his steady breathing before opening her eyes. Her fever originally wasn’t that serious, after taking some medicine she’ll get better quickly.

shehnaaz carefully moved her body on the bed to avoid waking him up. She pushed away the pillow in the middle, and burrowed herself into his embrace before attentively placing his arm on her waist. she doesn't know when she'll get another chance to be in her Siddharth's Embrace. Sigh!!

then she closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep as she was particularly tired after so many events.

The next morning, Siddharth biological clock was, as usual, very accurate. He opened his eyes at exactly 6 am and groggily tried to figure out from the unfamiliar surroundings where he was.

His acting career made him accustomed to flying everywhere and he was long used to his move-centered life of drifting around the world in a rootless manner.

Suddenly, he noticed something soft and warm in his embrace.

his brows furrowed in confusion as he looked down on the thing in his arms. To his surprise, he discovered Shehnaaz leaning against his bare chest, soft, delicate, feeling almost boneless like a tender rose petal.

Before he could push her away, Shehnaaz’s thick eyelashes started quivering. She dazedly opened her heavy eyelids to uncover bright and dewy eyes.

He was still naked, holding Shehnaaz to his bosom.

The two of them quietly stared at each other for a while. Shehnaaz seemed to think of something. She reached out and touched his face and immediately appeared to be frightened.

She instantly KICKED Siddharth away and rolled out of bed.
