CHAPTER 476: [Bonus chapter] A special place in his heart
The next day...
"Huhuhuhu!"
Axel frowned, watching his sister bawl her eyes once again. She was still fine when he came, but the second he called her and she faced him, tears just suddenly ran down her cheeks.
"Sis, what the heck?" He scrunched up his face. "I thought you would be fine since my brother visited you yesterday. But it seemed you are much worse!"
"Axel..." her voice shook as she blew her nose. "... your brother might divorce me."
"So, what? It's just a — what did you say?" he gasped, jumping from his seat to the edge of the bed. "Sis, what did you just say? Why would my brother divorce you?"
Heaven hiccuped. "He's mad about something, and then he left yesterday after saying he needed some time."
"Sis, what did you do?" Axel furrowed his brows. "Did you do something bad that you two might break up?"
Impossible! His brother and sister-in-law were head over heels with each other. Nothing could ever break them apart! But... why would Heaven think so?"
"I lied about something." She hiccuped once more, wiping the tears on her cheek. "Dom hates liars, but I did. And he might divorce me because of that."
"No..." Axel shook his head in denial. "My brother isn't like that. He will never divorce you, even if you do something wrong."
Heaven peeked up at him, but then looked away. "This time, he's really mad."
"You two can't break up!" He shook his head profusely. "I refuse! Can't be! Basti will surely be with me in this!"
"What makes you think you have a say in it?" she returned before blowing her nose.
"You're pregnant!" Axel frowned. "Also, I have a say in it because I'm the brother!"
What was the connection?
Heaven could only cast him a look, but didn't argue with him. She was already so stressed out that she didn't have the energy to argue. All she wanted was for Dominic to finish his soul searching and tell her that they start with a clean slate.
"Sis..." his frown deepened as she quieted down, patting her back to calm her down. "Can you please stop crying? I don't know what you lied about, but if my brother said he needs time, then just give him some space. I'm sure he will calm down soon and will talk to you about it with a level head."
He stroked her back, eyes filling with worry. "It's not good for the baby if you keep crying and stressing yourself out. Remember, you are on the bedrest."
"But I can't stop..." she buried her face with her palm. "It hurts so much and it scares me."
"It's okay, I'm here." His voice softened, moving closer to embrace her and comfort her. "Just trust in him and your relationship. I'm sure things will be okay. I mean, come on. He didn't even divorce you in the first five years of your marriage."
Heaven clutched his back but didn't say anything. Dominic didn't divorce the original Heaven Liu because the latter might be harsh, but she never lied to him. The original Heaven openly hated him, and no matter how cruel the original Heaven was, what she showed was her truth.
Dominic hated liars, and this stemmed from the time his uncle orchestrated the death of the young Dominic. It was already deep-rooted. Therefore, knowing his wife was lying to him all this time terrified her. Therefore, she already thought that he might divorce her.
