How ridiculous it all seemed now.

The image of Olivia sitting alone in the study, her heartbroken expression etched in his mind, filled Dylan with regret. She was the woman he had cherished for so many years, and in one night, he had shattered everything they had built together.

“From now on, I have nothing to do with you," Dylan declared before leaving the room.

Gina's desperate plea pierced the air as she hugged Dylan from behind, crying like a baby. “But I love you, Dylan! I care about you more than she ever could. Why won't you give me a chance? Why do you only care about Olivia? She's given up on you now. She won't ever love you again after how badly you've hurt her. So why not give us a chance?"

Dylan's frustration reached a breaking point at Gina's words. Unable to contain his emotions, he slapped her in the face.
