Back in Time: Unshackling From Love

Chapter 21

Jerome still mistakenly thought that her request for a divorce was a result of being upset about that day.

Even though it wasn’t necessary, Mikayla couldn’t help but ask, “If you knew that day was our fifth anniversary, and you knew I would attach great importance to it, why did you go to dinner with Kylie?”

Jerome looked indifferent as he answered, “For me, it’s no different from any other day.”

Indeed, he didn’t love her, so why bother celebrating the anniversary of their acquaintance?”

It was all just her one–sided expectations.

“Why did I ever have the courage to think that I could move you someday?” Mikayla quietly muttered to herself.

Jerome couldn’t really hear. His dark eyes were fixed on her.

Mikayla’s expression returned to normal. “I didn’t make a fuss about anything. I am serious about the divorce.”

Jerome couldn’t believe that Mikayla was still talking about divorce. His face darkened. ” Mikayla, is this marriage something you just decide to enter and exit whenever you feel like it?”

Mikayla found it amusing. “What’s the matter? Didn’t you want to get rid of me sooner and be with your paramour?”

Jerome didn’t appreciate Mikayla’s tone. It was sharp and mocking, filled with

indifference.

“Whether I want to get rid of you is my business. You don’t have the right to force me into marriage using Grandma when you want to marry and then suggest divorce outright!

“So, what do you

want?”

“You’ve tormented me for so long, so you have to wait until I’ve tormented you enough before saying anything!”

“Mikayla put down her spoon and stood up. “There are still over 30 days.
