Boomerang Love

Chapter 13

He felt as if those words were meant for him and that she was expressing her feelings to him indirectly

It seemed as if she wanted to tell him that she had made a lot of efforts and sacrifices in their marriage. If he chose to get divorced, he would have to deal with the consequences,

“Ms. Goodwin, I understand all the reasoning, but I just can’t accept it! Tom wants to divorce me and marry a young lady.

“It’s getting late. You should rest early. You have to work tomorrow.

Picking up Naomi’s phone, Brendan gave a noncommittal hum in reply.

On the other end, Annie was too focused on venting her emotions and didn’t realize that she was talking to a man. After saying a few more things to Brendan, she finally ended the call.

He threw Naomi’s phone aside, glancing at her as she slept. Then, he thought about how she had happily clung to his arm as she urged him to have a baby together.
