After She She Stopped Loving Him

Chapter 96

When Yolanda returned to Moonbay Estate, she didn’t ask when Charles would be home. She ate alone at the

table.

After just a few bites, Charles came back.

She couldn’t help but wonder if it was just her imagination, but lately, he seemed to be traveling less and less.

‘Where are Sophie Sutton and Vivian?‘ she wondered.

She frowned, but when she looked up, her expression had already softened into a sweet smile.

“Honey, you’re home so early tonight? How’s your mom doing?” she asked.

Charles handed his coat to the servant and replied flatly, “I thought you didn’t care about her.”

She didn’t, but she had to put on a show.

Charles glanced at the table loaded with food, lowered his eyes, and sat down beside her. “You don’t wait for me to eat anymore?”

Back then, no matter how late he came home, Yolanda would always foolishly wait up for him.

Sometimes, he’d be out with his mistresses, having so much fun he’d forget all about home–and her. He wouldn’t even bother to call. When he finally dragged himself back in the morning to wash up, he’d always find her curled up alone on the couch. The servants would say she’d waited until midnight, refusing to eat a single bite by herself.

Charles never felt guilty about it. He never asked Yolanda to wait–it was all her own doing.

When it comes to love, the one who cares more is always the one who gets hurt.

Somehow, Yolanda had stopped waiting up for him.

She actually seemed more comfortable just being home by herself.

That thought unsettled him.

They had known each other for fifteen years. Ever since Yolanda was brought back to the Grant residence, she’d been just an accessory in his life.

He gripped her chin, making her look at him. “You can eat even when your husband isn’t home?”

Yolanda had no idea what was up with him. She just smiled and served him some food. “You haven’t eaten yet, right? Eat up.”

Charles lowered his eyes and ate the piece of meat she’d given him.

Yolanda asked the servant to bring another plate and fork, but she passed her used fork to Charles and took a
