However, she hadn't expected Tyrone to issue a formal statement.

There was a fleeting moment when she naively hoped that Tyrone would disclose their relationship.

But that thought was short-lived.

Reading his statement, she felt an odd mix of detachment and resignation.

Tyrone had vowed to safeguard Galilea's career, hence he couldn't Label her a mistress publicly.

This meant that as long as Galilea was in the picture, they could never openly admit to being married.

On top of that, their public status ensured that they would always be under media scrutiny.

For the rest of their lives, people would monitor their every move, and every photo captured would lead to public humiliation and attacks.

Their unborn child would be condemned even before birth, unable to Live a public life.

Contemplating these realities, a wave of suffocation swept over Sabrina.

The marriage felt hollow.

If her child was destined to live in such conditions, she would rather face it alone.

“Sabrina, I may not be in a position to say this, but if you don't announce your marriage, you'll bear this burden forever. If he truly loves you, how can he let you suffer like this? I think you should consider a divorce," Bettie suggested, her tone laced with sympathy.

“Look at your current situation. Even though you're his wife, to everyone else, you're just a mistress. What's the point in holding on to this marriage?

Wouldn't it be better to free yourself through a divorce and lead your own life?"

Sabrina had never cared for the title of Mrs. Blakely. She preferred to lead a low-key life, making a divorce the most viable option.

"I understand, Bettie. Thank you."

In the circumstances, Sabrina did her best to dodge Tyrone while at work. Yet, he invited her to share meals in his office, as though the world hadn't shifted under their feet.

She found herself seated on the sofa, with a spread of her favored dishes arranged before her. Gazing at Tyrone as he meticulously set the table for her, a sudden urge welled up in her. The words burned on her tongue. "Can we make our marriage public?"

But before she could articulate her thoughts, Tyrone broached the subject. "Sabrina, I've been giving our situation a lot of thought. I considered taking our relationship public, but the fallout would be disastrous for Galilea. She might end up jobless, and her reputation could be tarnished. The whole thing might blow up.
