The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 237

She wouldn't have dared to dream of it back then!

Even in her wildest fantasies, it seemed impossible.

But now that she knew he had loved her since her freshman year, so many past interactions took on an entirely new meaning.

Take that smile after their deeply passionate kiss at their wedding, for example.

At the time, Nora thought Maloney was just an incredible actor.

Looking back, he wasn't acting at all; it was the triumphant smile of a man who had finally gotten exactly what he wanted.

And even further back, on the day of the university's anniversary during her freshman year.

Maloney had suddenly called her, claiming he was a special guest for the event but had gotten lost on campus. He asked if she could come get him.

Nora had rushed over immediately.

She had been so excited and ran so fast that she tripped and fell.

She had scraped her knee.

He had carried her to the infirmary. After applying the ointment, he had cradled her ankle, gently blowing on her scraped knee while his hand rhythmically stroked up and down her calf.

That day, her entire leg felt like it was on fire.

The burning sensation lingered all night.

But she hadn't dared to entertain any romantic thoughts.

Thinking about it now, he was totally just taking advantage of the situation.

Got lost, my foot. If he were really a VIP guest, there would have been dedicated staff to escort him. There was no way Nora would have been the one dispatched to find him.

It was all part of his master plan.

Maloney fell silent for a moment. "So you found out yesterday."

"Huh?"

"That I used to pursue you."

"I realized it after you spelled it out for me."

"But I wasn't on your list."

"What list?"

"Your list of suitors."

What the hell???

What was he talking about???

It took Nora a good moment to process his words.

"Are you actually mad about that?" She asked in disbelief. "When you asked who had pursued me, I obviously thought you meant other people. You don't count as 'other people'!"

"Fine, my mistake," Maloney conceded.

Nora rolled her eyes.

She was furious.
