She gently pushed him away, biting her lip. "What about Rachel? Don't you need to take care of her tonight? She's blind right now-what if something happens? Aren't you concerned?"

"Concerned?" Chandler met her gaze, his eyes deep and searching. "Meryl, are you... still jealous?"

Meryl fell silent, with her lack of response speaking volumes.

It stung to see her man treating another woman so well, especially when he had forgotten their anniversary.

Sure, Chandler had held his own at the reunion, making her look good among her classmates, but what good was that?

She desperately wished Chandler would sort out his relationship with Rachel and return to their family.

She had given him time to figure things out, but if he couldn't, she was ready to gather her thoughts and leave.

"Sometimes, I'm just too busy to come by the Stone Villa late at night. I didn't want to disturb your rest."

After all, Meryl was quite far along in her pregnancy, and he knew how hard it was for her to get a good night's sleep. If he showed up late, it would only disrupt her peace.
