Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437 Finally Free

Richard looked at her and pursed his lips before stepping out of the room.

As he descended the stairs dejectedly, he glanced at the dining room.

“How did it go?” asked Samuel.

“We… broke up,” Richard muttered, hoping Samuel would console him.

“Gemma’s finally free. From today onward, you can keep that crazy woman company,” Samuel commented flatly.

Richard was rendered speechless.

“Richard, you’re greatly responsible for Miley’s current state. If you had kept a distance from her since the beginning, she wouldn’t have ended up like that. You knew Miley liked you, yet you kept getting in touch with her. Naturally, her desire for you will grow. In fact, she’s even willing to use such methods to own you.” Samuel’s words hit the bullseye.

Richard stayed silent.

Samuel was right.

It was all Richard’s indulgence that caused Miley to be in such a state.

“Kathleen, please take care of Gem,” Richard mumbled.

“I would’ve done it without you telling me to do so,” Kathleen stated coldly.

A look of helplessness appeared on the man’s face.

Just then, his phone rang.

“Dr. Zimmer, please come over quickly. The patient’s awake, but she keeps crying and making a fuss. We can’t keep her calm.”

“Okay. I’ll be right over.” Richard ended the call and immediately dashed off.

Kathleen commented frostily, “You’re right. The biggest factor is not setting boundaries. But I never expected Richard to be like this.”

Samuel murmured, “I won’t do that.”

She side-eyed him. “I don’t believe Ashley never went looking for you.”

Her womanly instincts told her that Ashley would not back down.

“Forget it. She’s your savior. I have no right to say anything.” She swallowed her food with a placid expression and informed, “I’m going to check on Gem.”

With that, she put down her cutlery and went upstairs.

Clearly, she was ignoring Samuel.

He sighed inwardly, frustrated by the situation.

Kathleen really doesn’t like Ashley. Well, neither do I.

Kathleen went up the stairs and arrived in front of the room door.

Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, for she heard Gemma’s sobs from inside the room.

Standing at the doorway, Kathleen sighed and leaned against the wall.

Apart from feeling worried and heartbroken for Gemma, Kathleen thought about Ashley upon seeing Gemma in this state.

It was inevitable for women to feel insecure when a person like Miley showed up around their significant others.

Kathleen used to think her feelings for Samuel were not as intense as before.

However, Ashley’s appearance made Kathleen realize how scary her possessiveness could be.

Despite that, she did not want Samuel to notice it.

After all, Ashley did save Samuel.

It was up to Samuel as to how he wanted to thank Ashley.

Even so, Kathleen could not help but worry.

She stood at the door for some time until the sobs inside became softer.

Only then did she enter the room.

“Gem, are you okay?” Kathleen asked concernedly.

Gemma slowly lifted her head. Her eyes were swollen from crying.

“We broke up. Our seven-year relationship ended just like that,” she sobbed.

Kathleen sat beside the bed and pulled Gemma into her embrace. “There’ll be a better man who loves you. You’re a great woman. You deserve better, Gem.”
