After She She Stopped Loving Him

Yolanda poured coffee for May, then for Renee and Charles as well.

May took a sip. She had never liked Yolanda, always feeling that a woman like her didn’t deserve Charles. So when she saw Yolanda sit down, she frowned again.

“Yolanda, go help in the kitchen. Why are you sitting here?” May said. “The maids at Moonbay Estate all say you haven’t been cooking these past couple of days.

“You know Charles always loves your cooking. If you don’t cook and his stomach starts acting up, what then?”

In the past, whenever May picked on her, Yolanda would always look to Charles.

But today she didn’t. Instead, she simply stood up and went straight to the kitchen.

A flicker of surprise flashed in Charles’s eyes. He looked at the coffee in front of him and, after a long while, finally said, “Mom, why do you always have to make things hard for her?”

May was a little surprised. Before, whenever she gave Yolanda a hard time, Charles had never stepped in.

He was always busy–most of the time, the moment he sat down at home, he had to pull out his laptop to deal with work. The rest of his time was spent fooling around with other women.

May knew her son too well. She knew he didn’t like Yolanda.

She sighed and said, “What exactly are you thinking? If you don’t want a divorce yet, then just let her have a baby first, and later you can kick her out. Samuel might be capable, but he’s still not strong enough to shake us.”

Samuel might be a rising star, but the Sinclair family had decades of foundation. They had nothing to fear.

Charles glanced toward the kitchen, catching only half of Yolanda’s figure.

Her posture was excellent–her back was always perfectly straight. It was obvious she had taken countless etiquette lessons as a young lady.

Her face was beautiful, too. Charles thought that if he couldn’t marry the one he loved, then being with Yolanda wasn’t so bad. She was obedient, pure, and sometimes amusing when he

“You want a grandchild already?” he asked May with a teasing smile.
