A Second Chance with the CEO After Divorce

Chapter 79:

“Ugh, they’re everywhere, so annoying!” Madisyn grumbled as she slid behind the wheel of her car after leaving the restaurant. She slammed the door shut and let out an angry sigh.

Belinda, resting against the passenger seat, looked out into the distance thoughtfully. “This spot is really popular. It’s only natural for people to gather here,” she remarked.

Madisyn scoffed, irritation clear in her tone. “But do they have to be glued together like that, constantly holding hands? It’s disgusting!”

Outside, the evening had brought life to the streets, now aglow under the warm lights of newly lit streetlamps. Couples walked by, their fingers intertwined.

Belinda watched them, a gentle smile playing on her lips. “They’re in love. It’s natural for them to want to stay close,” she explained softly.

Madisyn frowned, turning towards Belinda with a mix of confusion and surprise. “How can you be so composed about this?”

Belinda’s voice remained even, detached as though discussing strangers rather than her own husband and the other woman.

“I’ve moved past it.” She turned to Madisyn, her smile bright and seemingly untroubled. “They’re probably gearing up for their engagement next week. Kristopher reserved the venue and ordered the cake a month ago.”
