Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 13 Cut all ties

Nolan gave Lucian a cold-eyed stare. Lucian hurriedly explained, “Mr. Dalton, Mrs. Dalton is with Kadence right now.”

Kadence was Peyton’s bestie. It was normal that Peyton would want to see her. Previously, to spy on Peyton’s every move, Nolan told Lucian to add Kadence on Facebook.

While explaining, Lucian took out his phone and showed the picture that Kadence posted. Kadence’s curly pink hair was quite eye-catching, but Nolan only saw Peyton.

Peyton had a makeover. She switched her waist-length hairstyle to a short center-parting hairstyle. With a small face, her smile no longer looked as warm as the sunshine.

She hung her head, wearing an oversized gender-neutral shirt. Her delicate collarbone was bare. She seemed cool and aloof.

The caption said “rebirth”.

Nolan didn’t notice his shaking hand. He was glad that she chose to move on after pestering him for a year, but what he couldn’t fathom was why his heart was still aching.

No. His sister was six feet under. How could she have a rebirth?

He was agonized only because he wasn’t reconciled.

He wasn’t done torturing her. She wouldn’t get away.

When Nolan was deep in thought, Lucian added, “Miss Fletcher took Mrs. Dalton to the Dark Horse Club.”

Lucian scrolled down and tapped the next picture. In the dim light, Peyton was slouching on a soft couch. A handsome young man in a white shirt was feeding her grapes while on his knees.

Nolan almost crushed Lucian’s phone.
