The atmosphere at the dinner table felt very tense. Almost all of the Styles family were gathered tonight, except for John and his wife who were out of town.

Harry, who rarely goes home for dinner nowadays, joins for dinner. Harry had no other choice. He had to join, at least he needed a moment to talk to Taylor, who had only been silent while lowering her head.

Gemma, who for the first time rejoined for dinner, just stared around in confusion, before returning to continue eating, as if nothing had happened between them.

Occasionally, Harry would steal glances at Taylor. Harry could clearly see the sadness in Taylor's eyes and Harry deeply regretted his actions. If Taylor hadn't clearly avoided him, maybe Harry would've pulled Taylor into his warm arms, telling Taylor how sorry he was for the stupidity he had done.

When the atmosphere was completely silent around them, Taylor suddenly rose from her seat, making all eyes turn towards her. Taylor bit her lower lip to find herself the center of attention right now.

"I'm sorry, please continue your dinner. I'll be at my room." Taylor said, smiling slightly before turning around and leaving the dining room just like that.

Harry sighed in frustration at Taylor's treatment. Yes, Harry knows, that he certainly deserves this kind of treatment from Taylor. In fact, Harry's frustration doesn't compare to how much he caused pain and hurt Taylor.

"Taylor booked a plane ticket to return to Nashville tomorrow." Anne suddenly said, making everyone in the whole table quiet all at once. Harry choked. What? Nashville? What the hell?!

Harry still remembers clearly when he and Taylor got separated first. Taylor returned to Nashville and never returned to London again, before fate finally brought them together and made them meet at a party. But that was the past and everything is different right now. In the past, they did split up because they were only dating. There wasn't any commitment at all between them. But now? How can that be! Taylor is now Harry's wife. Whatever Taylor will do, she must get Harry's permission. They both swore an oath to that.

Shortly thereafter, Harry rose from his chair as well. Without saying anything, Harry turned and quickly walked to their bedroom.

When he arrived at their room that happened to be unlocked, Harry found Taylor tidying her things up. Harry's heart sank. Harry walked into the room and at that moment, Taylor turned, who was aware of the presence of someone behind her.

For the first time since what had happened in Harry's office, their eyes finally met. Harry could clearly see Taylor's eyes filled with tears. She cried, again.

"Tay, I–" Before Harry could continue his words, Taylor had cut off him off and her turned back away from him, continuing to tidy up her belongings.

"Don't say anything that will just make this situation worse, and I don't want to hear it."

"Don't leave, please." Harry stepped forward, approaching Taylor. Taylor ignored and tried to focus on tidying her things.

Without looking a bit at Harry, Taylor said, "Didn't we made a deal some time ago? If any of us breaks our vows and breaks our promise to each other, why are we even going to bother to stay?"

Harry took Taylor's arm softly, "Tay, listen to me. . ." Taylor shook her head and pulled her arm away from his grip. Taylor smiled sadly.

"Why didn't you say everything from the beginning? You hid that entire girl's existence from me. I tried to believe you. But you destroyed and broke my trust. I don't know what I did to deserve this kind of treatment from you. If you really don't love–"

"I love you, Taylor. I really love you. It's just that–"

"Enough. If you really love me, you wouldn't–"

"STOP CUTTING ME OFF FROM EVERY GODDAMN SENTENCE I SAY!"

Taylor was stunned when Harry shouted at her like that. Harry placed his hand on Taylor's shoulder, forcing her to turn towards him so that their eyes would meet again. His emerald green eyes and blue sapphire eyes met once again.

Harry closed his eyes briefly. "Taylor, listen. I'm sorry I yelled at you. I didn't mean to be rude, but just this once, please listen to me. I just need you to listen to my explanation." Taylor lowered her head before sitting on the edge of the bed.

In a trembling tone, Taylor said, "Fine, explain."

Harry took a deep breath and sighed slowly, releasing his hand which was originally on Taylor's shoulder. "I. . . I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have betrayed you. I'm truly sorry. I'll do anything and everything just for you to forgive me." Harry said earnestly with his eyes brimming with tears. He couldn't even stand if Taylor gave him the silent treatment, what more if she'll leave him again? Harry will surely go insane.

Taylor, who was silent for a few moments, finally spoke up amidst the silence. She asked, "How long has it been?"

Harry shook his head. "How long for what?"

"How long have you been in a secret relationship with Emily behind my back? How long have you been hiding all of this? You've never forgotten that girl, right? When she appeared, you'd want to go back to her and leave me alone." Taylor raised her face, staring at Harry with teary eyes.

Harry shook his head again. "Taylor, for God's sake, I never thought it that way. Well, yes, I know I was wrong. I'm still in touch with Emily since she became my assistant. But our relationship was only professional and we treated each other like normal coworkers."

"I didn't know that 'coworkers' and being 'professionals' suddenly include you two fucking and doing nasty things in your office!" Taylor interrupted.

Harry paused for a moment, bowing his head. "If you're asking about my excessive relationship with Emily, we haven't started long ago. Everything is out of my control, Taylor. You know that I'm a man and I always have lust in me. And at that time, I-I just didn't want to bother you with my lust. I was afraid that I would the child in your stomach and I couldn't control it anymore. And Emily, s-she came when I–"

"When you really need someone to vent out everything, is that it?" Taylor asked curtly. Harry nodded weakly. Taylor sighed again before rising to her feet and closing her suitcase. Harry looked at his wife softly.

"If you need that, you can just come to her after we sign the divorce papers which I'll take care of very soon."

Harry's eyes widened when he heard Taylor's words. Harry got to his feet and grabbed Taylor's hand roughly.

"What are you saying?!" Harry asked in a high voice.

Trying to calm herself down, Taylor replied, "I'll be taking care of our divorce papers."

Harry shook his head. "No, no, no. You must be kidding, right? Taylor, please! Don't be like this, don't act and make sudden decisions!" Harry said as Taylor squinted at him.

"Sudden decisions? You should've told that yourself before you suddenly went to Emily to she could satisfy your 'lust'."

"I've apologized to you, Taylor! I've been crying all day, I've been honest, I've explained everything, I've promised not to repeat my mistakes again, and I'll even do anything you want! I just don't want you to leave! You can't leave me just like that again! I can't lose you twice, Taylor!" Taylor was surprised to see tears streaming down from Harry's green eyes. Taylor had never seen Harry cry like this, but he was crying  for his own stupidity. If he didn't betray and break her trust, none of this would've happened.

"I'm really sorry, Taylor. I swear, I won't do it again. I love you. I really love you. You're  my one true love. I've never fallen in love with any another girl like how I fell in love with you."

Taylor was even more surprised when Harry suddenly knelt before her. Harry took Taylor's hand, he held it and kissed her hands repeatedly.

"I'm sorry. Please, don't go. We've come this far already and I don't know what I'll do if you leave me again." Taylor remained silent, feeling Harry's tears dripping down on her hands, which Harry was still holding and continuously kissing.

"Think about our child, too. I want him to grow up just like the other children. I want him to get all the love from you and me, from us. We can't possibly do that if we aren't together. Please, don't leave. Don't leave." Harry pleaded again.

Taylor had never saw anyone crying before her, especially if it was Harry Styles kneeling before her. No matter how wrong Harry was with her, how could she stand  seeing Harry crying and constantly pleading? Taylor isn't the type of woman who was heartless, but this time, Taylor also didn't want to be too compassionate, she didn't want to give up that easily.

"Harry, stand up." Taylor pulled her hand from Harry's grasp and placed it on Harry's shoulder. Harry slowly rose to his feet, his watery eyes continuing to stare sharply at Taylor.

Taylor sighed before saying her final decision, "Fine, I won't go. We won't be getting a divorce."

The words succeeded in making Harry smile thinly and breathe freely. However, the next sentence that Taylor said again destroyed and made Harry's small smile fade away.

"But everything will never be the same again."
