His explanation actually took me by surprise. I thought he’d just try to sweep it under the rug like before, acting like nothing happened and hoping I’d keep quiet about it.

It looked like Jared really had changed a bit lately. Sometimes I wondered if there was some weird balance in the universe. When one person stopped loving, the other suddenly started to care.

So now that I didn’t love him anymore, Jared was the one trying to win me over.

I gave him a light smile. “Relax. I’m not overthinking it. We’re all just working hard, right? I know things aren’t easy Darling, you really do so much for this family.”

‘Even going so far as to use your looks to please your guest’s daughter,‘ I added inwardly.

My considerate words made Jared’s gaze stiffen for a moment.

I quickly got up and gently ushered him out. “I’m going to take a bath now. You go tuck Yvonne in.”
