The Shallowing of 42

Chapter

The whole scene fell silent

Zackary’s eye twitched, revealing astonishment

In a moment, Arabella adjusted her expression, looked around, and spoke with a hint of apology, I invited everyone here today to clarify this.” 

Daisy’s father passed away before she was born. He spoke without reservation but also hoped that everyone would educate their own children well

Parents were not heartless people either, upon hearing this, they came over one after another to 

offer comfort

Gina hesitated and said, I’m sorry, I didn’t know” 

Arabella interrupted indifferently, It’s not something worth apologizing for.” 

Apart from this little incident, the birthday party went smoothly

Daisy played the role of a gracious host and took good care of every child

Watching her small and busy figure shuttling back and forth, Arabella’s eyes became moist

Her child, it did not deserve this

The birthday party came to an end, and the guests left one by one

Daisy sat absentmindedly on the loveshaped swing, staring at the ground

This was made by her little by little using flowers, wanting to take many beautiful photos with 

Zackary

But now, not to mention photos, even Zackary is just holding onto that Rosa and not letting go. Arabella walked over and squatted in front of Daisy, asking gently, Did Mom take a photo of you?” 

In just one second, Daisy’s tears burst forth, hiding in Arabella’s arms and sobbing softly

Arabella was so heartbroken that she couldn’t catch her breath, holding her tightly

The two of them sorted out their emotions, and it was already an hour later

Arabella led Daisy home

The house remained empty and desolate

On the table, there was only the surprise she had left for Daisy, Zackary even skimped on leaving

1/4 

birthday gift

Zackary hurriedly left the birthday party midway, and nobody knew where he went

It was no longer her concern

Now, there are only nine days left

In a home that has been living in for six years, there are too many trivial matters

After Arabella had put Daisy to sleep, she began to tidy up by herself

Most of the daily necessities were left for Zackary to use

Towels, bath towels, toothbrush cups, slippers… 

Some people never got to use it, even until it was broken

11 p.m. 

Arabella finished throwing the second wave, stepped out of the elevator, and locked eyes with 

Zackary

He twisted the handbag in his left hand, while his right hand was about to knock on the door

Trey smirked arrogantly. His eyes squinted into slits. Yeah, there was this little brat when I was hitting her, she almost knocked me down.” 

He certainly did not have the key

After a big argument at that time, he broke the key into two halves and rushed into the kitchen 

drain

Arabella stepped past him and blocked him at the door, saying, Daisy is asleep, so just say whatever you need to say here.” 

Zackary furrowed his brow, what was going on, she had never treated him like this before

The confusion flashed through his mind, and he casually spoke again without paying any attention, I planned to stay here tonight.” 

He thought that women would be grateful and appreciative

After all, this was what she had been looking forward to the most, being like an ordinary family, having three meals a day, and putting the children to bed together at night

Arabella felt a sharp discomfort in her heart

2/4 

The treatment she had once dreamed of, she now only had complex emotions left

Goodbye, there is nothing at home that you could use.” 

A few days ago, Arabella could never have imagined that she would one day refuse Zackary

She still felt heartache, still felt hurt

But I wouldn’t let myself fall step by step

There was a hidden meaning. Not anymore.” 

Is it because I didn’t go to the birthday party today?” 

Did you teach Daisy to say that her father died? What was your purpose?” 

Her polite refusal was met with three aggressive followup questions from him

Arabella curved her lips and lifted her gaze, silently staring at the person who had wasted fifteen years of her life

He seemed to have changed yet seemed unchanged

I used to like him for his carefree and unrestrained nature, but as time went by, this carefreeness became more mature and reserved

Just Arabella, no longer lingered with him

She calmly asked back, Did Daisy say something wrong?” 

What difference does it make to you, to her, to this home, and to the dead?” 

Arabella’s mouth didn’t stop, unlike the words she could say

Zackary frowned, unable to believe that she would defy him like this

Since you had so many complaints, why didn’t you get a divorce?” 

Okay, leave then.”
