Lilian's suffering had been caused by him—her severe depression, her repeated suicide attempts. He had once promised her he would always be there, that he would never leave. He couldn't break that promise.
But Alicia… even after the separation, she would still have Nana and the rest of the family—people who genuinely cared about her. Perhaps, after the divorce, she might even find happiness.
Lilian, on the other hand, had no one left but him. If he walked away, she would fall apart.
Between the two, he could only choose to hurt Alicia.
Alexander closed his eyes briefly, then turned to look at Alicia in the car. Taking out his phone, he finally dialed Maria's number.
"Maria, I forgot the folder. It's on the table. Can you bring it to the Family Court? We're waiting at the entrance—please hurry."
Maria replied almost immediately, "Okay, sir."
After ending the call, Alexander returned to the car.
