Nine months too late: After divorce by Baby Charlene

Chapter 136

The pain in her voice was crystal clear. Her eyes glistened with unshed tears, and she hoped to heaven those tears remained unshed.

But Kage...he didn't even show off any reaction. He just remained in that position, his cold eyes boring holes into hers. Moments passed, and when he still didn't say a word, Sylvie scoffed. Of course, how had she been expecting a response from him?

A treacherous tear dropped to her cheek. Damn it.

"It's fine," she sniffled, wiping the stubborn tear that had begin rolling down to her neck. "Forget I asked."

She turned to the door again, grabbing the knob.

"I looked forward to this moment, you know?" Kage spoke, freezing Sylvie at the door, though she didn't turn to look at him. "I had hoped it'd hurt, and it is just like I'd anticipated." Disbelief coursed through Sylvie. Her brows furrowed as she looked at him. She still stood there, looking like a statue.

She scoffed, finding it hard to believe. All this was just to hurt her?

Well, yeah. He's done a really good job.

Alone in her own car and on the road, Sylvie couldn't control the tears that streaked her cheeks.
