Divorce Me I'm Done Serving You (Ayla and Troy) novel Chapter 854

Every word from Halle sounded like she was calling him emotionally clueless, useless, and bad at handling things. Edgar's face turned red with anger.

He reacted hard, almost losing control. He jumped up from the couch and stormed toward the door.

Right then, the doorbell rang. A voice came from outside. "Ms. Kinsman, it's Wilfrid. Mr. Reagen asked me to bring you some breakfast."

Edgar suddenly stopped in his tracks. The color drained from his face, then flushed back with anger.

Even though James hadn't done anything himself, it felt like a hard punch straight to Edgar's face. They hadn't even faced each other, but Edgar still felt deeply humiliated.

The anger inside him kept rising. Suddenly, he didn't want to leave so quickly anymore. He forced himself to calm down, then turned and walked back.

Halle just looked at him.

Edgar frowned. "Your neighbor brought you breakfast. Are you going to accept it or not?"

In the past, Halle probably would've tolerated Edgar's random bad temper. But now, she didn't care as much anymore.

Whether he was angry or not barely affected her, maybe that was what happened when feelings faded.

Halle answered with her actions. She stood up and opened the door. "Wilfrid, long time no see."

Wilfrid smiled. "Yeah. After I got back to Zheron, I kept using the massager you gave me. It really works. Here, I brought some healthy breakfast foods. Eat as much as you want."

Halle didn't stand on ceremony. "Okay, thank you, Wilfrid. Come in first. I'll carry that."

She reached out to take the tray from his hands.

Wilfrid pulled it back and laughed. "I work every day. I'm way stronger than you."

Halle didn't insist. Even though Wilfrid was already over sixty, his arms were still muscular, and his body was strong. He looked like one of those older guys who could go winter swimming in freezing weather.

The easy way Halle and Wilfrid talked with each other made it obvious they were close and had known each other for a long time. It also showed that Halle and James had a very unusual relationship.

Edgar realized he knew almost nothing about her life.

He kept watching Halle. He realized he hadn't really looked at her carefully in years. Only now did he notice how feminine she had become.

Halle looked at him. "It's just breakfast. You're overthinking it."

Edgar snapped, "Just breakfast? What, are you planning to build a life with him too? And before, when you said you wanted to have kids with someone, were you talking about James? Have you liked him all along?"

Halle frowned. "Are you going to eat or not? If you don't want to eat, then stop ruining my appetite."

Edgar was so angry he felt the urge to flip the table over. Halle only cared about eating. His feelings, his emotions—she didn't see them at all, and she didn't care.

He was so furious he could barely think straight. At that moment, he suddenly missed Nina. She was always gentle and caring. She paid attention to his feelings. Whether at home or at work, she always knew how to calm him down and handle his emotions. Halle could never do that.

But she used to. Now, she acted like she couldn't see his feelings anymore.

Edgar clenched his teeth. "Do you even still want to marry me?"

Halle realized Edgar was just trying to pick a fight. "Of course we're still getting married. Why wouldn't we?"

Edgar's voice turned low and serious. "Then start acting like someone who wants to get married. Lately, everything you say just makes me upset. Do you only feel satisfied after we fight?"
