Chapter 19
Krista’s smiling lips trembled slightly.
She seemed to have said this
But in reality, she was just trying to force him to divorce early, without any intention of having a deep conversation with him. Who would have thought of having an awkward conversation with their ex–husband after receiving the marriage certificate? Wasn’t it all about going out with good friends and celebrating the new life by drinking?
Although she has always been true to her word, she didn’t want to affect her mood in this beautiful moment, so she found an excuse.
“I did say that, but I didn’t say we should chat now, did I? Let’s do it next time when I have some free time.”
Frankle did not let go.
“After the last time, you tricked me into signing the divorce agreement and then disappeared without a word, it’s hard for me to trust what you say anymore. You even changed all your contact information, so if you leave again today, where should I go to find you and hold you accountable for your promises?”
Perhaps it was the influence of being a lawyer, but watching him passionately accuse, Krista inexplicably felt a twinge of guilt. Frankie keenly observed the subtle changes in her facial expression and continued to employ a gentle approach.
“You wanted a divorce, and although I was reluctant, I still agreed to it. I delayed it for a little while, but in the end, it turned out the way you wanted. Irespected your wishes and didn’t question the things you lied to me about before. I just wanted to have an open–hearted conversation with you, but are you not willing to give me that chance? We were classmates for four years and married for three years. Are you really this heartless?”
After receiving the divorce certificate, Krista became somewhat complacent and completely forgot about the resolute attitude she had. previously adhered to.
And Frankie, who was so humble in front of her, was something she had never encountered before. Unable to help but soften her heart a little, she took out her phone on her own initiative.
“Alright then, I’ll give you my contact information, but you’re not allowed to message me and disturb me like you did a few days ago. You also need to speak more politely. As for meeting up, let’s discuss and decide on a suitable time later.”
Frankie was afraid that she would lose track of her, so he quickly exchanged contact information and then let go of her hand to follow her downstairs. Along the way, he kept muttering non–stop.
Hour word.
“Then you also have to promise me, not to block me, not to delete me, and not to ignore my messages. You must keep your
Krista’s ears were getting calloused from listening, and her tone was becoming impatient.
“As long as you stick to your role as a student and refrain from crossing any boundaries, I guarantee that I won’t delete you!”
With this assurance, Frankie finally let go of his worries.
He opened the passenger door and made a respectful gesture, as if inviting someone.
Krista pretended not to see and went to the roadside to hail a car.
She had just turned around when a long sigh of resentment came from behind her.
“Divorced, don’t even carpool anymore? That’s really heartless.”
Krista got goosebumps from listening and immediately hurried into a taxi, urging the driver to go faster.
As Kylie returned home and pushed open the door, two loud bangs startled her.
She looked at the room filled with balloons, flowers, snacks, and cakes on the table, as well as the banner celebrating being single, and her eyes welled up with tears.
Kylie was afraid that she would cry, so she quickly hugged the person into her arms and whispered to comfort them.
“Why cry on such a joyous day? Quickly swallow your tears for me! Let’s get drunk today to commemorate this happy day!”
“Why cry on such a joyous day? Quicidy swallow your tears for me! Let’s get drunk today to commemorate this happy day!
Krista had suppressed her emotions for a long time, and at this moment, she finally experienced true release.
She wiped her tears onto Kylie’s clothes and nodded heavily a few times
“What’s the point of getting drunk, you can’t outdrink me!
“Yo, someone who hasn’t touched a drop of alcohol in three years dares to boast in front of me! Today, I’ll show you who can’t outdrink Who!”
