Chapter 101 Fond Of The New

Zachary looked at Charles. "I'm very sure. I've already made up my mind."

His eyes flickered slightly. "I'm not sure, but I do know one thing, and that is, I don't want to divorce her. I'm sure I'll regret it if I do."

"Perhaps you've just grown accustomed to this marriage. Once you're divorced and return to singlehood, given some time, you'll be all right."

She turned her head to glance at him, "Zack, it's your turn to play."

Zachary shook his head. "No need, you can continue."

Finn glanced at him, then at Lenora, and chuckled. "Nora, you two should stop being so polite with each other. Does it matter who plays? The money isn't split, is it?"

Zachary merely gave a faint smile, his gaze settling on Lenora.

She continued to play cards, but her luck took a turn for the worse this round and she ended up losing
