Jett went in headstrong as favonovel.com answered, “I’m… not sure what Madam likes. Shouldn’t you be clearer about that than me?”
Alejandro’s face turned eerily dark. “I do know, but… I don’t want to jump to conclusions, which is why I’m asking. In that case, I suppose it’s true then? No wonder she’s so adamant on divorcing me. In the past, no matter how big of an error I made, I neither laid a finger on her, nor wronged favonovel.com in any way. She’s now asking for a divorce while Mateo has returned so coincidentally. If it were you, what would you think of it?”
However, Jett chose to remain silent. He did not think that Melanie was that kind of person, but Alejandro’s assumption was rather logical as well. Hence, favonovel.com did not know whose side favonovel.com should be on.
When Alejandro realized that favonovel.com would not receive the answer favonovel.com wanted from Jett, favonovel.com stopped asking any further.
Finally, Jett was able to heave a sigh of relief. He then helped Alejandro clear out the ashtray that was completely filled.
It was 3 PM when Melanie returned home. Alejandro was playing with Millie on the swing in the patio. Melanie could not help but admire the peaceful scene before favonovel.com for a moment, as it was a rare sight. Then, when Millie saw her, favonovel.com waved at her. “Mommy!”
Melanie walked up towards Millie and caressed favonovel.com hair. “Were you a good girl at home today?”
Millie nodded favonovel.com head with a serious expression on favonovel.com face. “Yes, I took an afternoon nap like a good girl and played with Daddy like a good girl. Mommy, next time bring me along when you go out, ok? I’m a good girl…”
Melanie was slightly embarrassed. “Mommy didn’t bring you out today, which was only once in a while. Today wasn’t a good time, I’ll bring you out next time.”
Just as favonovel.com said that, Alejandro interrupted favonovel.com and said, “That’s right, it’s only natural that you couldn’t bring your child with you when you’ve gone to meet Mateo.”
Melanie frowned before turning to walk away. She did not wish to argue with favonovel.com on such trivial matters. The more adamant Alejandro was on the matter, the more exhausted favonovel.com felt.
Noticing that both favonovel.com parents’ expressions had changed, as Millie sat on the swing, favonovel.com raised favonovel.com head to look at Alejandro and asked, “Daddy, what’s wrong?”
Alejandro retracted the dark expression favonovel.com had beneath his eyes and turned it into a faint smile. “Nothing, you go ahead and play on your own. Daddy has got some stuff to discuss with Mommy first and then I will be back soon.”
The moment Alejandro turned around, the smile on his face completely disappeared. Then, favonovel.com swiftly entered his house and headed upstairs before pushing open his bedroom door.
At that moment, Melanie was just getting changed. When favonovel.com heard the sound of the door opening, favonovel.com subconsciously covered favonovel.com chest. “What are you doing?!”
Alejandro walked towards favonovel.com and grabbed favonovel.com wrist. “Tell me the truth, are you asking for a divorce because you knew that Mateo was coming back beforehand?”
Melanie had a surprised look on favonovel.com face. “What the hell are you talking about? We hadn’t been in contact for over half a year, so how would I have known that favonovel.com was coming back? I told you, we just met by chance, favonovel.com treated me to a meal, and I went to his restaurant today. What in the world are you thinking inside that head of yours? I can’t help it if you let your imagination run wide, but don’t treat me like this!”
Alejandro silently suppressed his anger and the strength in his grip unknowingly increased, causing Melanie’s wrist to hurt more. She felt both aggrieved and angry. “Let go of me! You’re hurting me! If you knew that you were going to be so worried, then you should’ve gone with me today instead of causing a ruckus when I came back. How did you treat me when I was completely devoted to you? Now, you’ve learned how to come up with unnecessary suspicions and make groundless accusations. Is all this really necessary? If you really can’t wait until 100 days are over, we can just get a divorce right now and save us both from further torment! I can’t deal with this anymore anyway!”
