Love After Divorce by BELLA

Chapter 27:.

David noticed their embarrassed expressions and changed the subject. “Why is everyone still standing? It’s almost dinnertime and everyone must be hungry. Let’s go to the dining room.”

After saying this, they all headed towards the dining room. Sophia continued to hold on to RK’s arm the whole time, as if she was afraid that if she let go, someone might steal her man.

As they approached the dining room, Stella deliberately slowed her pace and decided to sit down after everyone else had done so.

Sophia pulled RK to sit next to her, then gestured for Isabella and David to sit on RK’s other side. Now that RK was surrounded by the Richard family, it was clear that they were treating him like a treasure.

Now there were only two seats left: one next to Sophia and the other directly across from RK. Of course, Stella was not going to sit next to Sophia. So, with no choice, she and Tristan had to take the seats across from her.

“It’s very rare that we all sit down together to eat. Let’s toast first.” said David, raising his glass.

They all had a glass of red wine in front of them. Stella also picked up her glass. She wasn’t good at drinking, but she couldn’t get drunk on one or two glasses. After all, she was with family, so she felt safe enough. Just as she raised her glass, Sophia’s voice interrupted the moment.

“Dad, you’d better trade my and RK’s glasses for juice. We’re planning to have a baby, and it’s not good for our health.”

Suddenly, Sophia said it from across the table, shyly. Stella’s hand that held the glass trembled, but she quickly set it down before it could tip over.

Stella thought she was no longer affected by the man’s presence, but it seemed it was only an illusion. Because when she heard Sophia’s words, it still hurt. She felt as if someone had plunged a knife into her heart.

Stella couldn’t help but stare at the face of the man in front of her. There was already Alia between them. Were they really planning to have another child at this point? Y… had he agreed?

But Stella found no expression on his face. RK’s expression was still as unreadable as ever. His hand holding the glass did not lower it.

He merely said lightly, “Swap Sophia’s glass for the juice. I don’t like juice; I’m fine with wine.” His words were ambiguous.

He did not say anything clearly. By asking to exchange Sophia’s glass, he implied that he agreed with her plan to have a child. But by refusing to change his own glass, he also implied that he was not fully committed to the idea. What a clever man.

He had always been like that: never clear, always leaving things open to interpretation. David didn’t attach too much importance to the double meaning of his words. He simply believed that RK still cared about Sophia’s well-being.

So David focused on the positive, assuming they planned to have children, and so RK asked to substitute juice for Sophia’s wine.

David nodded and said, “It’s good that you’re thinking about this. Stella is already 28, and Sophia is years older. If you don’t start planning now, it may be too late.”

After talking, David ordered someone to replace Sophia’s wine glass with juice, and everyone began to eat.
