Goodbye, My Love

Marco cupped his face with his hands and grunted.

“I should have known about what was happening sooner. Tell me, Jimmie. Was I really a bad husband?”

There was no denying that Loraine had gone through hell in the past three years. For this reason, Jimmie was Lost for words.

Even though Marco didn’t get a response, he had already concluded that he was a bad husband.

He began to ponder on all that Loraine said to him after the divorce.

With a heavy heart, he said, “Jimmie, I want to make it up to Loraine.

But I don’t think she will give me another chance. Do you think it’s because of my nonchalance during our marriage that she’s clinging to

Rowan instead of accepting my help?”

Jimmie couldn’t agree with Marco’s assumption. He pushed the gilded glasses on his nose with a thought in mind

“If you ask me, I don’t think Loraine and Rowan are romantically involved or will ever be. They get along with each other like friends and family, not like Lovers. Come to think of it, they share the same last name!”

“What does that have to do with anything?” Marco shook his head without hesitation. “Rowan is so young. He can’t possibly have a daughter as old as Loraine.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Still, it’s possible she’s his relative.” Jimmie speculated accordingly.

Marco insisted with a bitter smile.

“Again, I say that it’s not possible. If they were related, why would Rowan never be in touch with

Loraine during the past few years?”

This question silenced the adamant Jimmie.

It didn’t make sense that Rowan never contacted his relative. If

Loraine was from the Torres family, she wouldn’t have to put up with all the bullshit she got from Marina and the rest of the Bryant family.

Or could she have done all that for love? No, that was impossible!

As someone who had lived a carefree life for many years, true love was the last thing that ever crossed Jimmie’s mind. He quickly ruled out the thought.

Of Charit

A few days after the banquet, Loraine received a call from Klein.

“Congratulations, Miss Torres! The superior was highly satisfied with the progress of the project. He also praised you. Good job!”
