Chapter 65



Clyde quickly hung up the phone, a flicker of impatience in his eyes.

He gave me an awkward smile and pulled out a ring box from his pocket, revealing our wedding rings.

Before he could get a word in, I cut him off. "Clyde, I've told you before, I'm not taking something that someone else has already worn."

He had personally seen Kayla put on that ring, and now he expected me to wear it?

Clyde's hand froze, clearly unsure of what to do. He looked at me intently, then sighed, "Melanie, does it really have to be this way?"

I couldn't understand why he was upset. Wasn't this situation his fault? Yet, thinking about my own actions, I lowered my head. I had my share in this too.

"Clyde, let's get a divorce."

My tone was calm, as if discussing the weather. Once the thought of divorce took root, it seemed to consume me.

Clyde angrily threw the ring onto the back seat. "Melanie, do you really want a divorce that badly?"
