**TITLE: The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen**
**Chapter 176**
I kept my pace steady, refusing to look back, but Hera was relentless in her pursuit.
“Did you hear me, Sebastian?! You’re the one to blame, not me! You have no right to suggest that I lack dignity! It’s me who wants this divorce—NOT you!”
Her voice, filled with raw desperation, reverberated through the entrance, a haunting echo that pierced through the night. Tears cascaded down her cheeks, glistening like painful reminders of her heartbreak. Finally, I halted, but I remained resolutely turned away from her.
“Don’t forget to show up tomorrow,” I retorted, my tone icy and devoid of any warmth.
Hera felt as if the very fabric of her heart had been ripped apart, leaving her exposed and vulnerable. The words tumbled from her lips, strained and jagged, “I won’t forget it! I’m the one divorcing you. I was foolish to ever think I wanted you!”
In that moment, I embodied the worst version of myself, and the memory of my callousness etched itself into her mind, a brand that would not fade.
I chose silence, continuing my retreat into the darkness, leaving her with nothing but the weight of my indifference.
Hera stood there, feeling as though she had thrown a punch into an abyss—her words landing without impact, weightless in the void. A wave of helplessness crashed over her, threatening to drown her in despair.
Behind her, Mila exchanged a knowing glance with Edmund, an unspoken understanding passing between them.
They approached Hera from either side, their presence a comforting balm to her wounded spirit.
“There, there. Don’t let that sorry excuse of a man get to you. You deserve so much better than that kind of treatment, girl,” Mila soothed, her voice warm and reassuring.
