Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

"Zoey, this is the opportunity I've been waiting for, and I don't want to miss it."

At that point, what more was there for Zoey to misunderstand?

Henry had made his decision, and now he was just breaking the news to her.

They were both adults, fully aware of how important careers can be, and their relationship was still in its early stages.

Henry wouldn't pass up this chance for her.

Zoey felt a twinge of sadness as he continued, "Would you consider moving abroad with me?"

"Sorry, I can't leave my parents behind. Henry, are you saying... are we breaking up?"

Henry's silence lingered for a moment before he let out a wry smile. "I don't want to break up with you, Zoey. You might not believe me, but I really do like you. If I gave up this chance because of you, I'm not sure I wouldn't regret it later, or start questioning why you're in my life. We need to be ourselves first before we can be each other's partners."

He reached out slowly, taking her hand that rested on the table.

"The board at the academy wants me to leave in two days. If you don't want to come with me, maybe we could at least get engaged."

To solidify their relationship, to give them both some peace of mind.

For a moment, Zoey hesitated, gazing at Henry's face.

There was no denying that Henry would make a great partner someday, both gentle and resolute.
