I'm Glad We Met After Marriage のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 291 - チャプター 300

Mr. Pepper entered just in time to help me out of the restaurant. Cecilia was too busy paying the bill to chase after me.Every time I spent time with Cecilia, she managed to shock me with her shamelessness.I believed that she did not break up with Zach right away because he had given everything up for her. She was probably worried that he might get angry and hurt her if she suddenly dumped him.These situations happened all the time, not just in romantic movies but also in real life.As I got into the car, I heard Cecilia shouting my name, “Cassia! You’ve always wanted Zach, and now, I’m giving him to you. Don’t you want him?” Back when she asked me to give her Zach, she said something similar. He was like an item to her.I told Mr. Pepper, “Drive.” The car took off and left Cecilia far behind. Right then, I stuck my finger into my ears. After I listened to her ridiculous comments, my ears felt like they were full of wax.On the way, I received a call from Mary. She told me

“Don’t talk if you have nothing to say, then.” I tried to walk out. However, Zach suddenly grabbed my arm. “Cassia.”“Enough already!” I was incredibly annoyed. As I shook him off in anger, I hit my hand on the iron railing. It hurt a lot.I rubbed my hand in response. Zach was bad luck; nothing good ever happened when he was around.“Cassia, let me see your hand.” He came closer to grab my hand, but I pulled away.The more we struggled, the more it hurt. I finally stopped resisting and allowed him to examine my hand.“Are you done looking at it? Should I chop it off and give it to you as a keepsake?” I said, Then, I retracted my hand. My wrist had to be swollen at this point.“I’ll take you to get some ointment.”“No, thanks. My boyfriend is a doctor. I can just go to him.”“Cassia,” he uttered my name softly. There was something different in his slightly shaky voice.Why was there a hint of sadness?Oh, I got it. Given how sensitive Zach was, he probably realized that C

I knew a quiet place where we could easily talk.“Sure,” Mrs. Smith replied.Mr. Pepper drove to the entrance and helped me out of the car. “You can eat here and wait for me,” I told him.“It’s okay.” Mr. Pepper shook his head. “It’s too expensive here. I’ll eat somewhere else.”I did not force him. He probably would not like the food there anyway.After that, Mrs. Smith and I entered a private room. I asked if it was okay to order a set meal, and she said, “It’s fine.”I knew that she was not there for the food alone. She wanted to talk to me.The friendly owner brought us tea and served some side dishes and cold appetizers. She then told us that the set meal would take a little longer.I offered Mrs. Smith some tea, but she did not drink any. Although I could not see clearly, I could tell that she was not smiling.I guessed that Hayden had already told her about us. Even if we never bumped into each other, she had probably planned to speak to me.Once I put my cup down, Mrs

I ate quietly as Mrs. Smith watched me.I had to be really strong to eat with all this pressure from her.“Aren’t you eating, Mrs. Smith?” I asked.“I haven’t been able to eat properly for a long time,” Mrs. Smith slowly said. “As long as you and Hayden are together, I can’t eat.”“Am I really that much of a problem?” I smiled and asked.“Ms. Freeman, listen. This isn’t a personal attack on you. It’s about how you and Hayden aren’t right for each other. You really don’t fit. Don’t try to force it. Let me ask you one question. If you can tell me that you truly love Hayden and no one else could ever take his place, I won’t say another word.”Mrs. Smith hit the nail on the head.The truth was, I could not claim to love Hayden that much yet.After all, I started seeing him shortly after divorcing Zach. Feelings required time to grow.I told her what was on my mind. “Mrs. Smith, my feelings for my ex-husband also grew over time. I believe my feelings for Hayden will be the same. As

“Wait. Let me make you some sweet orange tea.”I spent a relaxed afternoon in Sophie’s coffee shop. After making that decision, I felt much lighter.Previously, I had been forcing myself to fall for Hayden. Sometimes, pushing myself so hard was exhausting.Sophie had been busy all afternoon. As it was getting close to dinner, she asked what I wanted to eat.“I want something expensive, like black truffle pasta or foie gras.”“You always say foie gras is just fatty liver.”“Having it once in a while won’t hurt.”“Alright, I’ll change clothes, and then we’ll go eat foie gras.”After Sophie changed, we were about to leave the coffee shop when Lucy showed up.It was my first time seeing her. Although I could not see her clearly, I could tell she was dressed very fashionably. She even looked a little rebellious.She boldly reached out to Sophie and said, “Give me money.”Sophie snorted. “Go away. Why should I give you money?”“I need money for an abortion.”Sophie stopped in he
