2024-10-29 19:42:56After Kathleen took Ryker home, instead of meeting Eloise, he went straight inside his room and slept the night away. Eloise didn’t want to disturb him and also she feared he might question her about that juice. She had decided to spend a few hours at her friend’s place so that the juice incident can be washed away from his memory before he wakes up.
“Hm, I don’t know.” Kathleen had finished her daily chores and was now spending time with her son in the living room. Ryker hadn’t walked out of his room after their arrival and it’s been 12 hours by now.
“Did you talk to him about divorce?” Alec questioned her on the call, waiting for good news.
Kathleen hadn’t spoken to Alec about Ryker’s new habits. Alec knew all about her past in the very first phone calls they have made, she had told him about Ivan and Lewis, literally everything that was related to her but not a single thing about Ryker. AlthoughRelated chapters

“Can we take a picture with you holding my hand?” Roy asked Olivia, who had been watching him silently for the past few minutes as he scrolled through Jamie’s social media accounts. She had been really silent about her relationship with Paul and had yet to remove their old posts together.“You want to post a picture of us holding hands?” Olivia wasn’t born yesterday; I mean she had admitted to helping him.“Yeah! Just hands.” He replied, getting comfortable on the couch of her apartment. She lived in a mediocre apartment, though she was also struggling with money, she had still managed to keep her small apartment well put together.“Okay!” she whispered weakly, holding her hand out for him. The instant he held her hand, she shuddered her skin, his touch made her feel comfortable.She had never been this close to anyone like she had been with Roy these days.

The instant Olivia heard Jamie’s name from his mouth, she realized what she has done. All this time, she had been living a false fantasy, fooling herself with a thought that he might acknowledge her feelings for him.“Roy!” she protested under him, not wanting to proceed whilst he imagines Jamie in his mind.“What?” he was quick enough to notice her struggles and instantly stopped when she wanted him to. He raised his face from her neck and watched her face, his eyes widened in surprise at the sight of mist in her eyes.“Are you crying?” he asked in utter confusion before his brain signaled him at the possible reason, “I was not imagining you like her,” he swiftly defended his action but the damage has been done. Since she was silent and very shaken under him, he staggered up on his feet to get away from her. She sat down in the bed to cover her face in her hands, it was never her intent to show her emotions

“You want me to go?” Kathleen murmured under her tone as she demanded eye contact from Ryker, “I mean, yeah that is what I wanted but---do you really want me gone?” she was baffled at her own mind for even coming up with such a question. She wanted him to let her go for so long and now that everything was working out perfectly, hearing him say he would free her made her feel even captured.“This is for the best,” he mumbled, keeping his head lowered and not raising his eyes.“For who? Best for who?” she steadily slid near him and to bury her face down in order to reach his face level, “Ryker! What is going on with you? You know you can share it with me, right?” Kathleen felt her heartbeat dropping as she had never seen him this broken before. Whatever was happening to him was now even hurting her.She had never imagined that his deteriorating health will be affecting her even after they have been throug

“If you want,” she murmured, “I mean, till you feel better,” she was making excuses to herself and him as well. Even he knew there was something that was stopping them both from moving on from each other so he didn’t question her again.“I don’t think I will be feeling better any time soon,” as he stated very innocently in hopes of making her stay, a fainted smile was formed across her lips.She had been angry at him for not believing her previously but once she had poured her anger out at him, she realized that if she was in his position, she would have done the same. After days of showing him anger and pushing him away, she had finally calmed down and started to think rationally.Ryker got up on his feet and hurriedly exit the room very happily, he didn’t want to stay behind and make a mistake that would make her change his mind so he wanted out of the room.Kathleen still wanted to know what was hap
