It didn't sound like you were divorced at all , so I thought everything was fine between you . It never even occurred to me that you were divorced . " Just then , someone knocked on the ward door , and Kendrick pushed it open to enter . He and Felicia had only met a handful of times and were barely acquaintances . Felicia was clueless about the divorce , and an awkward silence fell over the room . Silvana didn't want to see Kendrick at all , not even for a second . She tilted her head away and looked out the window , as if she hadn't seen him . " I'll step out so that you can chat .

The realization suffocated her , and she let out a cold laugh . " What do you expect me to do ? " " What do you want ? Tell me . I'll make it up to you . Just sell me the apartment , " Kendrick said . Biting her lip , she turned to look him in the eye , fighting desperately to hold back her tears . " What's your relationship with Christina ?

" Kendrick , you 68.74 % 15.560 Chapter 11 didn't tell me you loved something else when we got married . Why ? Why did you propose to marry me when your heart belonged to another woman ?
