Crossing the Gods as Slaves

Chapter 211 Outsiders (2)

Sid didn't say anything. He picked up his cigarette box from the table, lit another cigarette, sat back on the small sofa, and smoked quietly.

"You said that as long as I come here, I can see Asheni. When will she come?"

Sid still didn't speak. He looked at the dressing table in the distance, as if he was in a trance, or as if he was concentrating on smoking. He bought this small apartment when he was pursuing Des, and gave it to the young Des as a birthday present. They had many good memories in this small apartment, and all their first times happened in this apartment.

He thought that by asking her here, she would at least have some nostalgia and hesitation about their marriage. Unexpectedly, this time was no different from the previous times. Not only did she still insist on getting a divorce, but the words she said were even more hurtful.

Sid stubbornly believed that as long as he was in this apartment, everything would be like back to square one. So when he came here early to wait for Tis, his mind was filled with the sweetness of the past.

It was precisely because of this sweet memory that he felt that Tis's words were more hurtful than usual and pierced his heart.

The fact that Regila was imprisoned, interrogated, and then confessed was a heavy blow to Sid. He immediately realized that he had wronged Tis, and this injustice might not happen just once... He didn't trust her enough...

When did he start to think that Ikasha might have been killed by Tis's alter ego? It should have started when Regila suggested that Tis had schizophrenia, right? Didn't he almost completely lose trust in Tis after seeing the results of the mental evaluation?

Thinking of Regila's schemes and the frame-up of Tis, Sid clenched his fists tightly. After Regila was imprisoned, he thought that Akasha's death might also be related to Regila. As for Tis, she had been carrying this false accusation for so many years, so it was inevitable that she would be disappointed in him...

Before coming here, Sid had already decided to have a good talk with Tess, or at least express his guilt, but he couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Tess's resistance to him, not to mention that she seemed to be defending Hu Li in her words.

There was still smoke on Sid's fingertips, but Tess couldn't stand the strong smell, so she opened the window to get some fresh air.

Sid never smoked in front of Arthurnie, but now he was smoking one cigarette after another. Tess had guessed that he would not let Arthurnie come to meet her.

Tiss let out the smoke for a while, then turned his back to Sid and asked, "You don't plan on letting me see Arsene, do you?"

Sid nodded: "Once you give up the idea of divorce, you can see Asheni anytime and anywhere..."

Sid threw the remaining half of his cigarette into the ashtray and stood up: "Of course, if you are willing to start over with me, the door of my mansion is always open to you..."

Hearing this, Tis just laughed disdainfully: "Open for me? Is this a gift from His Highness Sid? Then Your Highness should close it. It has been closed for so many years, it is really hard to get used to opening it suddenly..."

After Sid said those words which could be considered as "surrendering" to him, he still had a glimmer of hope, but now... he lowered his eyes, turned around and walked away silently.

After Sid left, Tis snorted and laughed towards the door: "How annoying! I wished for a doll when I was young, but I got it when I was old... Late love is really meaningless..."
