All Chapters of Rekindling Love After Divorce : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Charles and Amanda were in the sitting room, watching a television program. Amanda was actually dragged to the sitting room by Charles, so she could distract her mind.Although watching some comedic shows were helping, she couldn't stop thinking of everything happening in her life.She was also registering the thoughts of Charles having romantic feelings for her, even though he claimed not too. "The girl is so stupid, isn't she?" Charles asked, referring to a television character."What?" Amanda stuttered, not registering his words. "What did you say?""You weren't listening, were you?" Charles asked, tilting his head."No," Amanda sighed. "Thanks for attempting to cheer me up, but I sincerely need some rest. I feel so tired and sleep would do me some good,""Okay," Charles agreed. "I want the best for you, and if sleep can give you the relief you desire, then it's okay,""Thanks Charles," Amanda smiled at him.As she stood to her feet, a knock came on the door."Who must that be?" C

“Look, Amanda," Lizzy tightened her grasp, staring into her eyes. "You won't understand what I'm saying until you see it for yourself. But there's no way he will show you that side of him,"Amanda was so confused. She had never seen her friend act so distraught before. It made her a bit uneasy."Lizzy, relax," Amanda urged, squeezing her hands lightly."I can't!" Lizzy snapped, her breath hitching. "I can't relax when you're in danger with someone so nasty and unpredictable. I blame myself for contacting him on your behalf. I thought he was a good lawyer. What was I even thinking?" She dug her fingers into her hair and silently screamed.Amanda's eyes widened in shock. Lizzy had never acted so hysterically before, it was getting scary."Lizzy, please calm down," Amanda pleaded, placing her hand cautiously on her shoulder. "I know that Charles was rude to you, but you shouldn't take it so personally. He isn't a bad person,"Lizzy shot a glare at her, then brushed her hand off her shou

"What?" Her father gasped, momentarily taken aback by the boldness in her voice."Daddy, please tell me you can do it," Betty's voice softened, filled with desperation, as she leaned closer to him, gripping his arm tightly. "I need to get rid of that woman. I can't stand her anymore,""Who are you talking about?" Her father asked cautiously, his voice calm but probing. "Is it James' ex-wife,"Betty wanted to lie but decided to tell the truth. There was no need to conceal her pains anymore, she needed an intervention from her father."Daddy, James can never love me if she's around him," Betty said, tears rolling down her cheeks. "I need her dead. I know this might be too much, but I don't know what to do anymore,"Her father could have easily told her to forget about James, but he believed that whatever his daughter wanted should be hers. He was so obsessed with satisfying his daughter's wants that he would go to any limit."They are both looking for their daughter, it won't take too l

The next morning, Amanda dialed Lizzy's number. She had been thinking about their interactions yesterday. When Lizzy answered, Amanda immediately sensed that something was different. "Lizzy...are you okay?" Amanda asked, her voice laced with concern. "You're not still upset about yesterday, are you?" Lizzy wasn't upset at all. Her thoughts were consumed by the kiss she shared with Charles. "Lizzy," Amanda called, bringing her back to the present. "Yes!" Lizzy replied quickly, her voice higher than intended. "I am fine. I'm not upset about what happened yesterday. That's in the past now." She added, trying to sound casual. Amanda exhaled in relief, glad that her friend didn't hold a grudge. "I'm happy to hear that," Amanda said softly, her lips curling into a small smile. Despite the relief, she was still unhappy about a lot of things. But she had to get used to swallowing her pain. She couldn't make everyone worried about her all the time."How are you feeling, babe? You seem

Amanda's hands began trembling and her face flooded with tears. Slowly, she brought her shaky hands to her face, crying in her palms. She should be glad that someone had her daughter, but the thought of her daughter being hurt somewhere terrified her. What would happen if she didn't reach her in time? What if this person simply wanted to trick her for the reward? "Lizzy, I don't know what to do anymore. I'm so confused..." Amanda sobbed, uncovering her face and turning to Lizzy, her eyes glistening with desperation. Lizzy, who was still feeling the sting of Amanda's earlier attitude, kept silent. Realizing how much she had offended her friend, Amanda apologized. "I'm sorry for yelling at you. I'm just in a disheartening position right now..." Lizzy sighed and looked at her with concern, "I understand, but we've got to think wisely about this," She muttered, thoughtfully taking her hand to her chin. "Why is this person suddenly texting when we're on the verge of uncovering th
