Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Aaron's current situation wasn't ideal. Colin pondered for a while. "No, you can't do that forever. Besides, you shouldn't be taking care of father all the time. You need to think about yourself, Aaron. I want you to resume your studies in a school, then I'll arrange a proper university for you based on your grades."

Sophia was pretending to play with her phone. Hearing Colin's suggestion, she blurted out, "That's right, Aaron. You should go back to school."

"What about father?" Aaron didn't agree.

"I'll take care of father." Sophia replied. She could quit the SL Group and find another job in A Country, so she could stay with her father and take care of him.

It was the best solution, but Colin let out a scoff. "What about me? Do you wish to abandon me?"

Sophia felt frustrated. It was indeed her duty to take care of her husband, however nominal their marriage was.

There was a short pause before she spoke. "It would be nice for you to live on your own in Z Country, Colin. You can have more privacy without me." Colin could read between the lines, and knew what Sophia meant.

Before he could retort, Aaron interrupted them. "That's not a good idea, sister! It's settled. Sister, you will live with brother in Z Country, and I will take care of father here. Let's not talk about my studies for now. I can go back to school whenever I want to, right?" After what happened to his family, he wasn't in the mood to go back to school.

Sophia remained silent. Her brother was grown up now, and he had his own thoughts about his life. She knew she couldn't say anything to change his mind. "Okay, it depends on you. Take good care of father, Aaron. I have to go back now. The plane leaves early tomorrow morning."

"Why didn't you tell me you're taking an early flight tomorrow?" Colin looked at her expressionlessly.

Sophia averted her eyes to the windowsill. "You're too busy to know my itinerary."

Colin angrily leaned back on the sofa and didn't say another word. Aaron could sense there was something wrong between the couple. Not wanting to make things worse, he didn't ask.

Silence engulfed the ward. Only the sounds from the television set and Jay's occasional laughter broke the quiet.

Sophia also remained silent as she manicured Jay's nails and washed his feet. When she was done, she stood up and left.

Colin bid Aaron goodbye and followed Sophia out.
