Ex-Wife Moving Wife Giving Birth? Congratulations, You’re Single Now novel Chapter 55

Chapter 9

I made a batch of pancakes to take on the road.

Opening my suitcase, all I had was two changes of clothes, my bank card, ID, and a bag of pancakes. These were my ten years as Jane Howard.

Starting today, I reclaim my life as Jane Wilson.

Zachary came back from buying groceries.

Seeing me zip up my luggage, he forced a smile.

“Jane, how about I make your favorite meatloaf tonight? It won’t take long.”

“Don’t bother.”

Zachary walked over. The sunlight streaming through the window cast a golden glow around me.

His lips trembled as he gently touched a strand of my graying hair, smiling sadly.

“Jane, you’ve worked so hard all these years. You even have gray hair now.”

I turned to face him directly.

“Yeah, being your wife and Kevin and Sherry’s mother has been exhausting.

Zachary, let’s get divorced.”

Zachary let out a heavy sigh.

“Jane… can I hold you one last time?”

I looked at Zachary with his red–rimmed eyes as he opened his arms slightly.

I took a step back and calmly refused.

“No need. Let’s just end this on good terms.”

Sitting on the train heading south, I looked down at the divorce papers in my hands.

Then I lifted my head to watch the scenery rushing past the window.

For the first time in years, my chest didn’t feel tight. I could finally breathe.
