Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 1275

Chapter 1275 Coward

The weight in Stanley’s gut eased slightly, and the cynical look in his eyes deepened.

Joyce caught it and let out a bitter chuckle. “I’ll take my leave then.”

She lowered her head and dashed out of his office, not wanting him to see the tears falling again.

She noted the sky was dark and cloudy as if it would rain soon. Well, at least the weather reflects my mood. It’s dark, cloudy, and raining.

Reaching for her phone, she called a number.

Within minutes, her call connected, and a kind woman’s voice sounded. “Hello?”

“Mom, it’s me.” Joyce plastered a forced smile on her face.

She could hear the joy in Caitlin’s voice. “Joyce, why are you calling at this hour? Aren’t you at work?”

“I’m on my leave today, Mom. Can I go see you and Dad tomorrow?” Joyce asked.

Caitlin answered, “Tomorrow? That’s great! You haven’t dropped by in a while. Your dad was talking about you at dinner yesterday. He was wondering when you’ll be back for dinner. The chicken we’re rearing in our backyard is fat enough.”

Hearing her mother’s affection, she could feel tears pricking her eyes, waiting to fall.

She sniffled and sucked in a breath to suppress her tears, feigning glee in her voice. “I’ll be back tomorrow. Ask Dad to prepare chicken soup for me. Add mushroom too.”

“Okay, I’ll tell him that,” Caitlin said with a laugh.
