The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 33

Seeing the situation unfold, Stella felt like a heavy stone pressing down on her chest, suffocating her.

During their five-year marriage, Haynes had never accompanied her to drop Keen off at kindergarten. She had suggested it once, but Haynes brushed it off, claiming he was too busy with work.

It turned out it wasn't about being busy. It was just that Haynes didn't want to go with her.
