Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Zoey heard the news that Wendy had gone abroad the next day.

Cornelia thought she'd be somewhat relieved, but Zoey's eyes remained calm, fixed outside the window. After a long silence, she

hummed a soft acknowledgment.

She had gotten thinner; her chin sharper, more delicate. At night, she'd still call out in her sleep, "Ozzy."

She couldn't bear to think about how Ozzy had died. The mere thought filled her with self-loathing for her incompetence.

Cornelia was worried about her mental state and suggested getting a therapist.

"There's really no need; it's just saches and pains. A good rest will do."

Zoey was sent back at home; the dog food remained untouched, and the water bowl was still full, but Ozzy was gone.

Fearing she'd break down in front of Cornelia, Zoey forced a smile at once.

"Cornelia, you've put off filming for too long. Go back to the set. Don't worry; I'll take good care of myself at home."

Cornelia nodded, but still advised, "I've instructed the property management. Unless it's someone from Star Movie Group and
