Beyond the Divorce
"Don’t do this, Lauren. I made mistakes, but..."
"You weren’t wrong, Oliver. You're a man, and you should fulfill your promises. I believe you said what you were really feeling. You don't need to go back on your word, especially since it was a promise to the dead! I totally understand.”
As soon as Lauren finished, I saw Oliver's face turn deathly pale, and I felt a shiver go down my spine.
It seemed Lauren would never get over what Oliver had done.
Oliver's wife was brilliant. She set up a dead end for both of them before she passed away. Unfortunately, Oliver was playing along.
