To Be Yours Again By Taylor

Chapter 1 Divorced

space and boundaries for the past two years. He never visited the Faust mansion since we got married. I bet he doesn’t even know what I look like.”  After two years, the married couple should have been each other’s closest person. However, for some ridiculous reason, they had never met each other. No one else would have been able to accept such a marriage, but Jenny accepted her situation.
