Our Anniversary, You Chose Her – I Chose Divorce

Chapter 32: Cannot Not See

"Don’t say that!" Nathaniel Monroe sputtered. "You’re the only one left in the Grant family, and your wife fought like hell to save you. If anything were to happen to you, wouldn’t she be absolutely devastated?"

Nearby, a girl pricked up her ears, listening in on the conversation.

But Walker Grant just scoffed. He half-lidded his long, elegant eyes, his face looking all the more handsome and captivating in the dim light. "She’d never feel bad for me. She doesn’t understand me. She wants to divorce me."

Nathaniel Monroe was left speechless. Watching Walker drink relentlessly, he said with a helpless air, "Why don’t we just leave Noah at the old family house? And have Sunny Reed visit him less?"

Walker immediately frowned at him. "Noah has already lost his father. You want him to lose his mother, too? What are you thinking?"

Nathaniel’s face soured. "Aren’t I doing this for you and Chloe? Just look at this mess. How is it going to end? Are you really going to divorce her?"

Walker didn’t say a word. He just downed the rest of his drink, then shot to his feet, grabbed his jacket, and left.
