CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Cora suddenly fell in silence.

Khalid added, "I had no other feelings for you. We can be friends, but I don't think we can take a further step."

He hesitated for a while and said sorry.

It took Cora a while to say, "So, your choice is Frances."

Khalid sighed, "It has nothing to do with her. She doesn't get to decide my feelings for you."

Cora sneered, "Really?"

Khalid didn't know what she was questioning. Soon, she added, "Then do you love Frances?"

Khalid paused.

He wondered if he liked Frances. The answer was positive. No matter how many dramas Frances had made, he still loved her after the 30 years they had spent together.

Khalid didn't say anything, but Cora knew what his silence meant.

She said regretfully, "Can you be like you were in the old days? You would've divorced if you were right for each other. No matter how much a person has changed, certain things in their bones will always remain the same."

Khalid didn't want to talk about this. He seemed calm when it came to his relationship, but actually, he was struggling.

He said, "I'm going to be honest. Frances and I loved each other. Our divorce is not completely on her. I was responsible for it, too. I'm not sure where we are heading to, but take it one step at a time."

Cora still wanted to say something, only to be interrupted by Khalid. He said, "It's getting late. You should go to bed now."

He was ending this call.

Cora paused. She had no choice but to agree. Khalid then hung up the phone.

He put the phone aside and seemed to be in a daze.
