Chapter 11

Gathering her spirits, Genevieve joked a bit more to cheer up Margaret visibly before she suggested leaving.

As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Anthony standing by the door. His demeanor was icy, his lips pressed tightly together, and his face carried a gloomy frown.

He had heard everything said inside clearly.

‘She cheered Grandma up because she couldn’t let go of me, right? It looks like she regretted the divorce and wants to return to my side! How could three years of affection vanish so suddenly?‘ Anthony thought.

A peculiar feeling surged within him as he looked at Genevieve’s gentle smile. It was a blend of delight and guilt.

He had not treated her well in those three years.

His words were meant to give Genevieve a way out.

Genevieve merely glanced at him after hearing his words.

A touch of coldness swept her heart. She found his words rather absurd.

She thought, ‘It’s impossible for me to regret the divorce.

‘I’d never pretend those things never happened.

‘It’s just as impossible for me to continue covering up their sordid affairs.”

Just the thought of doing those suffocated her..

Anthony’s face darkened momentarily as he watched her leave without saying a word, and his expression stiffened.

It felt like a piece was missing from his chest. It felt rather empty.

An inexplicable sense of fear and anxiety surged within him.
