Chapter 53

LADESSA.

"Anyway, would you like to grab a coffee?" The woman asked him.

My eyes rolled, and I was about to head to the counter to pay for my chips when I remembered Kael had the credit card we could use. So I put everything in my arms and walked out of the shop without looking back at them. "So, where are you heading?" It was the last thing I heard before the door closed.

"So, where are you heading?" I mimicked how she spoke while rolling my eyes again as I walked toward the car.

I wanted to scream. The last time I felt jealous like this was when Desiree was sitting on his lap. And while we were married, it was always Desiree but no one else.

In the one year we were together, Kael never made me feel invisible around other women.

I was almost near the car when it beeped, startling me, only for me to realize it was Kael who opened the door with his key. He surely saw me going out.

I sat inside and tried to steady my heavy breathing.

I wanted to think rationally. Maybe since the female knew him, he knew Kael was already divorced, so there was no reason for him to have a ring. Yes, that could be it. But why did he look like he enjoyed talking to him?

Kael had always had the same poker expression around people, even around beautiful women.

It didn't take long before the car door opened, and he came in with a bag of plastic full of chips-almost the same one I had picked up and returned.

Did he see me there beside them?

He dropped it in the back seat and didn't say anything, and neither did I. I kept my silence as we drove away.
