Chapter 158 Stay With Me

“It’s probably because of what Quinn did to you in public, right? I think you should see a therapist just to make sure you’re okay,” Trent advised.

“All right,” Sidonie replied, taking a deep breath.

Deep down, she knew it wasn’t because of Quinn at all, but rather because of the text message she had received, the one labeling her a murderer.

She had tried to find out who sent it, but all she uncovered was that the message came from a fake phone number. It had already been discarded, making it impossible to trace.

Trent gently wiped the cold sweat from Sidonie’s forehead. “Hang on, I’ll get you a glass of water.”

Sidonie nodded. Just as Trent was about to leave the room, his phone suddenly rang. When he saw who was calling, he quickly stepped outside.

Seeing that, Sidonie felt uneasy.

What’s going on? He never used to take calls away from me…

Feeling suspicious, she quietly got out of bed and followed him.

From inside the room, she saw Trent answering the call. “It’s me… Any news on who saved me from drowning eight years ago?”

Sidonie, who was by the wall inside the room, froze.

What? Trent is secretly looking into what happened all those years ago?

Why? He said he trusted me!

But now, it’s clear he doesn’t!

If he ever finds out that it was actually Quinn who had saved him back then, I might lose him forever.

All my dreams of becoming the wife of a powerful chairman of a listed company would be completely ruined!

Trent is the best option among the men in my life at this moment. I can’t let him discover the truth!

With that thought, Sidonie purposely let herself fall and cried out, “Ouch!”

Trent, who had been on a phone call, quickly ended it and rushed back to the room. There, he found Sidonie on the floor.

“What happened?” he asked, hurrying to her side.

“After you left, I felt a little uneasy,” Sidonie said, showing a bit of pain on her face. “I wanted to find you quickly and tripped on the way. My foot hurts a little… Could you carry me back to bed?”

Trent carried Sidonie back to the bed and gently laid her down. “I still haven’t gotten you a glass of water. Just give me a moment.”

Just as he was about to straighten up and leave, Sidonie suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck.

“Trent, don’t go!”

Trent froze. Looking at her, he noticed how she softly bit her lip. There was still some worry in her expression.

In Trent’s memory, Sidonie had always been strong and direct. But now, she looked fragile and helpless, so different from how she used to be.

“I’m just going to get some water. I’ll be right back,” Trent said softly.

But before he could leave, Sidonie suddenly kissed him.

Trent froze. Even though he’d been staying at her family’s home in Yarburn, their relationship had always stayed on the surface.

Sidonie had dropped a few hints, but he never acted on it.

Every time he thought of getting closer to her, Quinn’s face would pop into his mind.

Even though they were divorced, he couldn’t stop thinking about her. Maybe it was because they’d come to Yarburn together, and he kept seeing her.

When the kiss ended, Sidonie’s clothes had come loose.

Trent quickly turned his head away, but Sidonie only leaned in closer.

“Trent, it’s all because of Quinn that I’ve been having nightmares these past few days. I think she still blames me for your divorce. That’s why she tried to embarrass me in front of everyone. Please… stay with me.”

At that moment, Sidonie deliberately brought up Quinn. Just as she expected, Trent looked guilty. “I’m sorry. Because of the problems between Quinn and me, you got caught in the middle.”

“It’s okay. As long as I can be with you, I don’t care about the embarrassment. I can handle it even if Quinn is here right now.” Then she leaned in and kissed him again. “I’ve had feelings for you ever since I saved you. I didn’t fully realize it until now, after all these years.”
