The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 283

"What are the terms of the agreement?"

"I don't know."

"..."

Cassidy was officially sick of hearing the words 'I don't know.'

"Why don't you just confront him?"

"Just stand right in front of him and say you know about this, and you know about that, and see what he has to say for himself."

Nora tried to picture how that would go down. "He'd probably ask me where I heard such ridiculous rumors."

"And if I mentioned Seraphina's name, he'd say I disobeyed him by listening to my rival's poison."

"Then he'd probably feed me the exact same carefully crafted lie he told me the first time."

Cassidy closed her eyes, thinking it over. She couldn't help but ask, "Is Mr. Jameson really that unreasonable?"

Nora sighed. "Probably not, which is why I said 'probably'."

Cassidy was speechless.

Nora genuinely wasn't sure how Maloney would react if she laid all her cards on the table.

He would most likely scold her.

For sneaking around, hiding things from him, colluding with Seraphina, and getting involved in something dangerous.

She hadn't been a good girl.

If he just lectured her, spanked her, or locked her in the bedroom to teach her a lesson, that would be fine.

What she was truly terrified of was disappointing him.

Nora felt completely unmoored.

But she didn't regret digging into the truth.

Even if her emotions were a tangled mess right now.

Ugh.

She didn't know how to articulate it.

She just needed time to process everything.
