Divorce Anxiety

Kathleen was slightly startled by the question and started to grip her fair hand tightly.

Meanwhile, Calvin scrutinized her.

In fact, she did not need to answer anymore since her action had already betrayed her.

“Kate, you are ultimately bound to get hurt if you fall in love with someone like Samuel,” Calvin said solemnly. “I’m not just his father; I know him inside out. My son isn’t that honest, and his words sometimes contradict his action. You might have to comply with his requests, which could be unfair to you because love is supposed to be reciprocal. However, Samuel is extremely stubborn. Therefore, the woman who loves him must sacrifice a little more.”

Kathleen nodded. “I understand.”

“My son is born with a silver spoon. Hence, he naturally thinks that if a certain thing belongs to him, he does not need to fight for it or bother with it. Nonetheless, he will only realize how much he cares for it once it slips out of his hands,” Calvin uttered gently. “Perhaps, you should give him some time.”

Kathleen pursed her lips. “How much time should I give him? A day? A week? Or a lifetime?”

“This is for you to speculate.” Calvin’s voice fell to a hush. “I believe you will make your judgment at that time.”

Kathleen lowered her gaze and kept quiet.

She knew Calvin was persuading her to give Samuel another chance.

Why should I give him a chance, though? He and Nicolette had already done that unspeakable act.

Later that evening, Kathleen had changed into an indigo one-shoulder evening gown, making her look elegant.

The indigo gown only made her skin appear fairer than it already was.

Her long supple hair was pulled into a loose bun and was pinned up with a dark blue gemstone hairpin, giving her a beautiful and sophisticated image.

Kathleen had never dressed like that in front of anyone before.

It was her first time.

Calvin was very pleased. “Your mother-in-law instructed someone to deliver this gown to you.”

“No wonder it fits me like a glove.” Kathleen felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

“She wore this gown when we met each other for the first time.” Calvin ruminated over the past.
