After being reborn, I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter

It felt like Ryan was purposely making things messy between us, probably just waiting for me to confront him so he could use it as an excuse to get even closer.

“I really underestimated him,” I muttered, never thought a guy his age could catch me off guard like this.

Kids who grow up with power are something else–Ryan’s got way too many layers for anyone to figure out.

Those clear eyes of his might look innocent, but when it comes to scheming, nobody does it better.

Jared’s earlier outburst replayed in my mind. He’d changed so much–what exactly was he so unwilling to let go of?

“Is he really trying to pull that whole “tragic groveling to win his wife back” routine?‘ I thought, rolling my eyes.

Real life isn’t some web novel, and I’m not about to play along with his over–the–top drama. If he’s got that much energy, he should put it into helping our kid with her schoolwork.

Honestly, Jared’s just a means to an end for me now. The only thing I need from him is to love our daughter–nothing more.

Thinking about last night–how he kissed me so roughly at the hotel, the way our bodies pressed together in front of the mirror, and all those countless tangled memories that kept replaying in my dreams at midnight….

I propped my hand against my forehead, got up, and went to make myself something to eat. Just to stop my brain from spiraling, I turned on the nightly news broadcast. Listening to all that stiff, official reporting actually helped clear away my anxiety.
