Divorce Anxiety

Samuel did not expect Kathleen to take the initiative to send him off.

He curled his lips into a smile. “Sure.”

Kathleen then got up and walked Samuel out.

Outside, the warm afternoon sun rays shining on Kathleen made her look warm and pleasant.

It was as though the whole of hers was no longer icy.

“Samuel.” Kathleen looked up at the man who was much taller than herself.

He was dazzling with his back against the light.

Yet, he was so cold that the sunshine did not seem to warm him.

“Hmm?” Samuel stared at her.

He had not seen her for a year. She seemed to be the same as before, but at the same time, she looked different.

When she gazed at him, her eyes no longer twinkled.

“Let’s just be friends.” Kathleen’s gaze on Samuel no longer contained the nervousness it had when they last met at the airport.

She was now as calm as millpond.

Samuel silently stared at her before saying, “Do you think I can do that?”

Kathleen pursed her lips as she spoke. “If you can’t, I have no choice but to stay away from you in the future, Samuel. If it hadn’t been for Grandma, Mr. Macari, and Mrs. Macari, I would never have reconciled with you.”

“Reconcile?” Samuel mocked himself, “Didn’t you say I was a killer? Are you sure you want to reconcile with me?”

Kathleen shook her head. “You’re right. In truth, you were the executioner who indirectly ended both my children’s lives. There’s no way I can really forgive you. But Samuel, I don’t want to put Grandma and the others in a tight spot. I don’t want them to drive you away when I meet you in the Macari residence. There’s really no need for that.”

“Are you trying to tell me that I’m only a stranger to you now?” Samuel’s voice was husky.

Although he knew the answer to his question, he still felt incredibly miserable when he uttered the words himself.

“Yes.” Kathleen nodded.

Samuel looked at her with a sullen face. “What if I can’t do it?
