NovelBarChapter 1162 Chapter 1162 If it wasn't for Jeffrey promising he'd never set foot in a bar again, Karen wouldn't have even considered marrying him, let alone having all the that followed! Now, she'd taken him at his word, married him, had a kid, and in a blink, Jeffrey was breaking his very own rule.
Karen just couldn't wrap her head around it. Why was everyone trying to talk her down? "You're not wrong," admitted Dorothy, even though she really wanted to help Jeffrey and prevent a divorce. She couldn't deny that Jeffrey was at fault here.
Disagreements are normal in any relationship, but breaking a promise? That's a whole different story.
"I knew you'd understand!" Karen exclaimed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"So, what now? You're really going through with the divorce?" Dorothy wasn't trying to judge; she just thought that splitting over a small argument seemed a bit extreme. "What else am I supposed to do? Throw a party to announce it?" Karen flopped onto the couch, legs kicked up and shaking, "Just now, while I was putting our daughter to bed, I was wondering what got into me. What madebelieve Jeffrey would change for me? His folks probably spent a lifettrying to set him straight without luck. What madethink I could?" "...He still loves you." "How long can that love last?" Dorothy, of course, had no answer.
Karen patted her shoulder, "If it wasn't for Everett, I wouldn't have gotten my hopes up in the first place! Seeing him, so handsome, capable, and responsible, being utterly perfect for you, madethink maybe Jeffrey could be the same." "Why not have one last talk with Jeffrey?" "Talk about what?" Karen's gaze turned impatient, "He broke his promise, went to a bar, and was seen with another woman, even letting her answer his phone. What's there to talk about?" Her refusal to communicate stemmed from believing that Jeffrey would only offer empty words.
I'm sorry.
I won't do it again.
Just giveone more chance.
She didn't want to hear it.
Not again.
It wasn't that Karen couldn't forgive Jeffrey's mistakes. Disagreements and bickering didn't bother here much; she'd vent to Dorothy and then let it go.
But breaking a promise? That was unforgivable.
"Aren't you even curious about his side? Maybe things aren't as you imagine." "Leaving that woman aside, he went to the bar, didn't he?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Dorothy, whenever we've fought before, he'd callnon-stop the moment I left. This time, not only did he not call but when i swallowed my pride to reach out, he was at the bar drinking! Can't you see what that means? At the very least, it shows Jeffrey doesn't loveas much anymore." Karen had gone over these events tand again in her mind.
Deciding on divorce wasn't a hasty decision.
"Ah!" Dorothy sighed, "Jeffrey's waiting downstairs, you know.
"Let him wait! He's not coming in," Karen looked up at her, "Dorothym don't feel caught in the middle. 'm the one refusing to see him, not you. Just tell him straight up." "...I'll send him a text." As for what to do next, Dorothy was at a loss.
After all, Jeffrey really had messed up.
