Chapter 80

Autumn touched her pale face lightly. “I’m fine. I’ll go eat now.”

She didn’t even feel like explaining anymore.

After today, she’d be leaving this house for good, likely never seeing them again.

There was no need to say anything.

Once the banquet ended tomorrow, she’d leave with her suitcase.

Just thinking about it brought an overwhelming sense of relief.

After dinner, Autumn returned to her desk and picked up where she left off.

She wrote straight through until after ten.

Then, like always, she headed downstairs with her cup to get some water and took out a pill from the bottle.

The front door creaked open, and the sound startled her.

Her body jolted, and she accidentally flung the pill bottle from her hand.

Julian walked in right at that moment.

He glanced at the pills scattered across the floor and casually asked, “Not feeling well again?”

Snapping out of it, Autumn gave a vague reply. “Yeah. Just the usual.”

She crouched down to pick them up, but when she saw some of the pills soaked with mop water, she knew they were ruined.

Julian changed his shoes and walked over, about to bend down and help her retrieve the bottle.

Autumn’s heart skipped a beat.

She quickly snatched the bottle before he could reach it.

Without even closing the cap, she stuffed it into her pocket in a panic.

Julian watched her and couldn’t shake the feeling that she was putting on a show.

If she really had stomach pain, how could it always strike at just the right time?

It never hurt earlier or later-always when he came home.

Even Autumn probably wouldn’t believe it was a coincidence.

He merely cast her a flat glance and headed upstairs without saying another word, his face devoid of emotion.

Watching his retreating figure, Autumn finally breathed out.

From the look on his face, he clearly thought she was faking again.

But she didn’t care anymore.

She walked over to the coffee table and tossed the calendar into the trash.

Tomorrow was August first.

Today marked the final day of her countdown.

Just thinking about the days ahead-free from cheaters and backstabbers-put her in a great mood.

She pulled out the bottle of cancer medication.

Most of it had spilled earlier.

Now, there was barely any left.

If Julian had even looked a little closer, he would’ve seen the label on the pill bottle, but he didn’t.

He just assumed she was faking it.

How typical.

That scumbag really was bad luck-he’d stressed her into sickness and now had scared her enough to spill most of her meds.

Clearly, staying far away from toxic men and women was the smartest choice.

Back in her room, Autumn noticed the bathroom light was on, and soon after, the sound of running water came from inside.

It had to be Julian in the shower.

Since she tricked him into signing the divorce papers, this was the first time he’d showered here.

Was he planning to spend the night?

Just a moment ago, he was still forcing her to pay him back, even taking her to court just to defend Sienna.

And now he wanted to stay the night in this house?

As the water shut off, Autumn quietly packed her things, grabbed her laptop, and went to sleep in the guest

room.
