Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 2219

Athena cradled Lindsay in her arms, lost for words. Fate could be so cruel- merciless not only to Lindsay, but to Kerwin as well.

Two good people, both destroyed.

When Lindsay had cried herself out, she slowly sat up and noticed the glass of water on the table had gone cold.

Athena let out a sigh. "How about I take you out to eat? We can pick up some things for the kids while we're at it."

Lindsay nodded, her eyes red again.

Lindsay didn't even own a decent coat; her clothes were patched and worn. As she was about to leave, the man on the couch finally stirred and came up behind them, a childlike innocence in his eyes.
