Chapter 172 Just Friends, Just Goodbye

She knew that once this steel–hearted straight man cut off his feelings for her, that would be the end of it.

He would never reach out to her again.

He’d never be her friend again.

He had probably already deleted her from his contacts.

She really didn’t want to let him go.

Really couldn’t.

But maybe this was for the best.

She and James were about to finalize their divorce anyway.
