"Ashton, I implore you. Marry my sister."
At that moment, Ashton shook his head repeatedly. Instead of accepting Miranda's offer to marry her sister again, he adamantly rejected his wife's request.
Ashton Wolf, a man working as a contractor and lecturer, had officially married Miranda Stone, a designer, just three months ago. Despite knowing from the beginning, before deciding to marry, that Miranda was suffering from stage four brain gland cancer, he chose to maintain the relationship and make her being his wife.
However, Miranda's condition had worsened over time, and she was currently hospitalized. Worried about leaving Ashton alone and with no one to care for him, Miranda asked her husband to marry her sister, especially since Alice was also an orphan, with no one to care for her.
"No. I don't want to!" Ashton flatly refused. "Besides, why should I marry Alice? I love you, Miranda, not someone else."
"Ashton... Alice is my sister. Besides, I can't make you happy. I am seriously ill and can't have children at all. The doctor even said that my life expectancy---"
"Can't last long?" Ashton interrupted immediately as if knowing what his wife was going to say. Though aware of Miranda's possibly short life expectancy, Ashton always dismissed that reality. "Doctors are not Gods. Whatever they predict, you won't go anywhere if it's not your time."
Miranda sighed softly. In her weakened state, she tried hard to convince her husband.
Miranda thought time was running out. Before being called by God, she wanted her husband to fulfill her wishes.
"I beg you. You know that Alice and I are orphans. Our mother passed away a long time ago, and our father has never been known until now. If I'm not here, who will be there for Alice? She's still in college, and I trust no one to protect her."
"Alice is already an adult, Miranda. She's 22 years old. I'm sure she can take care of herself."
"But I can't leave in peace if Alice is unmarried and has no man to take care of her. I beg you to grant my request."
Ashton fell silent momentarily, unsure how to refuse or contradict.
"Anyway, I don't want to marry another woman!"
Seeing how determined Ashton was to fulfill her request, Miranda fell silent. She gazed closely at her husband's face, diving into his brown eyes, and then Miranda whispered.
"Can't you just grant my request once?"
"For God's sake, Miranda. I'll do whatever it takes. Anything. Just don't marry another woman."
Miranda smiled sadly. She nodded, firm in her decision. If Ashton couldn't fulfill her request, she wouldn't force him anymore.
"Fine. I won't force you anymore. But after this, please divorce me. So I won't have any burden when I leave you."
"For God's sake, Miranda, don't be selfish."
Ashton was almost running out of words. Seeing Miranda, who is usually calm, become stubborn again, his wife continued to plead, insisting he marry another woman, which made Ashton feel conflicted.
