Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

In the private room, Becky looked at the food spread out before her and fell silent. She had to admit that Devin was a considerate man.

She hadn’t fully recovered from the cold and as a result, neither had her appetite. She could eat, but didn’t want to.

On their way to the restaurant, Devin hadn’t asked her what she wanted to eat. Instead, he had taken her to Tasty Delights, where he had managed to book a private room, despite the difficulty in getting one. The food he had ordered was light and well-suited to her current condition.
