My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 484

Chapter 484: I’m Dying!
There was no expression on William Sinclair’s face as he listened to Jessica’s words. He was tired of hearing her lies. If he stayed here for another minute, he might collapse and end up in the hospital.

“I love you, Will. I love you so much, and I know you love me too. I know you don’t want to divorce me. Your father must be forcing you to do so, right?”

Jessica was still trying hard to win his heart back. She looked up to meet his gloomy gaze, confident she could make him forgive her.

“Please, don’t abandon me just because Bella is trying to kick me out of our family, Will. And, you have to remember, I’m Tristan’s mother. You can’t divorce me. Our divorce might cause a company share to fall…”

Jessica tried everything to make him change his mind.

William Sinclair let out a deep sigh. He turned away from her and looked up at the ceiling, pinching his temple in exhaustion. He felt like he just wanted his cancer to take his life right away. Why hold him in this world to witness the woman he loves, who now has become someone he wants to avoid and despises?

“Please forgive me, Jessica,” William said softly, his voice trembling. “I’m exhausted from all of this. I no longer have the energy to think or fight for my life and our future. I will let you go forever, Jessica.”

“No, Will,” Jessica pleaded, tightening her grip on William’s leg. “I will change. I promise you…I will be a good person for you and a good mother for Tristan. I promise I will not—”

“STOP IT, Jessica. Please just stop…huh!?” William said in a trembling voice. Tears he had held back slowly fell, moistening the corners of his eyes as he looked at her.

“It doesn’t mean anything anymore, even if you promise to change, Jessica. Because I won’t live in this world much longer.” William continues his words. He sounds helpless.

“William, what do you mean?” Jessica asked, wiping her tears, her confusion clearly showing in her eyes. “Why did you say something like that? Huh!?”

“I’m dying, Jessica. My end is very near to me now,” William said. He could no longer keep this from her.

All this time, William deliberately didn’t want to let her know. He didn’t want to make her sad if she knew he was going to die soon.

But now, he had to tell her. Maybe if Jessica knew now, she would realize they had no future. She may ask for forgiveness for her actions in the past instead of denying or even blaming others.

“Dying?” Jessica asked. She didn’t understand what he was trying to say. “Who is dying? You? What do you mean by that?”

William didn’t answer her, but he took her hand and led her to the sofa before he settled opposite her. He saw her tears slowly stop, but her eyes flashed with confusion as she waited for him to speak.

“Jessica, I have had cancer for the past few years. The results are still the same, and in recent months, my cancer has gotten worse. It was only a miracle that I could survive this long after the doctor said that my disease was incurable. I can’t be helped anymore,” he continued to explain about his illness.

Seeing Jessica sobbing before him hurt William. This is why he didn’t want to tell her; he just wanted to leave quietly without seeing her sad.

Even though he hated her now, deep down, he still loved her.

“I no longer think about anything other than just wanting this to end quickly. I’m so tired. Tired of this life,” William took a deep breath, feeling his chest tighten. “Let’s get a divorce, Jessica. You’re still young. You can continue your life and find your happiness.”

“William—”

“I will arrange your life comfortably for the rest of your life. But you will no longer be a part of my family. And you can’t stay in this city either,” William paused to clear his throat as he saw her silently cry.

He continued, “My father and Tristan have asked you never to appear before Bella and their son.”

“William, please—” Her voice disappeared again. It felt like her mind was empty.

She could only cry, seeing William, who had always supported her, stood behind her no matter what she did, and always defended her. But now he looked fragile, like an empty shell.

“I will give you two days to pack your things and stay here. After that, my lawyer will meet you to explain everything about our divorce. No worries, I will assign a maid to care for you in your new place. Ah, you can choose the property I will give you later.”

“Please don’t do that to me, William. I will take care of you. I will accompany you until the disease takes you from this world. Please let me do that… huh!?” Jessica begged. She no longer cared about Bella; she just wanted to stay by his side.

“I don’t want to, Jessica. Because… every time I see you, my hatred for you is even greater. You killed the woman who gave birth to me. How could I keep you by my side? I’m sorry, I can’t.”

Jessica shook her head helplessly while crying. “Please, William, give me one more chance. I promise that after you are gone, I will follow you to the afterlife. I will not cause any problems for Tristan and Bella again. Please don’t throw me away now.”

“There’s no chance for you this time, Jessica. This is the end for us. If you insist on refusing my offer, I will take my father’s advice and send you to prison for killing my mother.” William said firmly as he stood up from his seat. “You decide!”

William left the room without paying attention to the cries of the woman he once loved with all his heart. There was no more pity left in his heart for her. He would never forgive her, even though she was the mother of his son.
