When Love Becomes a Cage by Nora

Chapter 211



"Word on the street is Clyde had a girlfriend back in his college days, and it's her, right?"

"How could it be anyone else? He admitted it himself. The whole 'first love returning from abroad' scenario playing out in real life? That's a first for me."

"But why did he go after Melanie in the first place? It couldn't possibly be because Melanie was desperate for a higher social standing, could it?" The buzz of conversation hit me like a wave, making my head spin.

I tried to leave, only to be stopped in my tracks by Clyde.

"Melanie, I have no clue whose child you're carrying, but the Patterson family won't stand for it."

"I never liked you. You manipulated your way into marrying me, but I'm willing to let bygones be bygones. Let's get a divorce and save face for everyone."

His words only fueled the rumors more.

Once upon a time, Clyde and I had put on a convincing act as a loving couple.

His heroics in Ironvale to save me were well-known, even making the news.

But now, he seemed to have forgotten all that, pushing for a divorce.

This led many to speculate that our relationship was a sham from the start, devoid of any real emotion.
