Chapter 10
Cedric calmly took off his gold–rimmed glasses and removed his watch.
With one punch, he struck Ivor’s prominent nose.
Cedric had never been a match for Ivor before.
But this time, Ivor was pinned to the ground, beaten until he was bleeding profusely.
Celine’s tears seemed unstoppable as she continued to cry.
She said,
“Ivor, if you didn’t like Xiaxia, why did you take her away first and monopolize her?
She could have had a wonderful life.”
In that moment of eye contact, Ivor understood the meaning in her gaze.
Suddenly, it all became clear to him.
Why did Celine start a cold war with Cedric after Nina’s death?
It turns out that he wasn’t the only one who had experienced rebirth, nor was he the only one burdened with guilt.
In the previous life, Celine’s secret crush on Cedric had never been spoken aloud.
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as Ivor laughed, feeling only that fate was playing a cruel joke on them all.
He looked up at the man above him, whose face was contorted with pain.
“Cedric, should I say sorry to you?”
The man’s hand froze mid–air, a mix of pain and confusion in his eyes.
But Ivor didn’t want to say anything more.
Sometimes, not knowing was better.
He didn’t go to see Nína.
Because he knew he had done so many things to hurt her.
Nina probably wouldn’t want to see him again.
With a face full of scars, Ivor only stayed on this foreign land for a few hours before leaving again.
He also didn’t tell Cedric that in the previous life, Nina had been his wife.
And for Ivor, throughout his life, he had loved her but never been able to have her.
It was already late at night when he arrived home.
Yet, there was still a slender figure sitting on the sofa, not turning around.
Even when the room lights blazed on, Kira remained with her back to Ivor.
Ivor knew that Kira was angry.
He should have gone to comfort her.
But his legs, as if frozen, refused to move.
His feelings towards this woman were complicated.

Guess What My Cheating Husband’s Karma Hit Different
Chapter 10
The obsession he’d had with Nina for two lifetimes had been shattered by her.
Ivor thought that he should love her.
But Nina was dead.
Her death seemed to have taken away his ability to love anyone else.
At this moment, Ivor didn’t know what to say.
So, he simply went upstairs alone.
Behind him, there came the sound of glass shattering.
On that face filled with despair,
Ivor seemed to see the shadow of Nina’s past self.
He’d seen that expression too many times during the period when he was fighting with Nina over their divorce.
Suddenly, his arm was grabbed.
Kira was crying pitifully, her voice filled with grievance.
But his footsteps didn’t halt.
After that day, Ivor gradually started to avoid coming home.
He put aside all his work and began traveling far and wide, visiting various temples.
Then, after being away for half a year, Ivor finally returned.
He handed Kira a divorce agreement.
He said,
“I’ll leave our son in your care. Take good care of yourself in the days to come.”
Kira lowered her head, lost in thought.
“Ivor, you don’t love me anymore, do you?”
“I don’t know,” Ivor replied truthfully.
He truly didn’t know.
Love and affection seemed like such a luxury to him now.
Kira raised her head, her lips curling into a wild, maniacal laugh.
Then, she tore the divorce agreement into shreds.
Ivor, I’d rather die than divorce you.”
Later on, ahe really fell gravely ill.
But even until her death, she clung tightly to Ivor, never letting go.
ater on, their son took the initiative to move to the Lu family’s ancestral home, refusing to acknowledge him as his father anymore.
vor, now utterly alone, renounced worldly attachments, sought to accumulate virtue, and worked for the welfare of others.
All he wished for was to earn Nina a better rebirth in the next life.
