The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 45

These points were actually specifically brought up by Parker's mother when she was teaching him how to get Cassidy to stay.

His mother had said that while feelings needed to be discussed, leverage needed to be discussed as well.

Parker was actually extremely annoyed by this tactic.

It was completely unnecessary.

Cassidy was just throwing a tantrum. She used to do it all the time; back when they were dating, Parker had once privately grabbed a meal with a college friend. Cassidy caught them, demanded a breakup, and Parker had to buy gifts and set off fireworks to coax her back.

This time was exactly the same.

He felt there was no need to escalate the situation to the level of corporate partnerships.

It hadn't reached that point yet.

However, after getting married, Parker felt a little reluctant to swallow his pride and coax Cassidy.

It felt beneath him.

But recalling the injured look in Cassidy's eyes when he said the wrong thing earlier, Parker felt like he had no choice but to do something this time.

Feeling frustrated, he scratched his head and said, "Anyway, it's just a massive headache."

Seraphina mentally noted every single reason Parker listed about why divorce was difficult.

She muttered, "It really is a headache."

"Enough about this!" Parker tapped his glass against the table. "Drink up!"

The party raged on all night.

The pounding music, the clinking of glasses, and the loud laughter intertwined, filling the private room with the scent of alcohol and wild revelry.

They played several drinking games.

In an unnoticed corner, Jasmine's brother, Nathan Smith, discreetly pulled out his phone and snapped a few photos in Parker's direction.

In the frame, Parker was flush red, clearly wasted. Seraphina, sitting intimately beside him, had perfectly rosy cheeks. The two had their arms around each other, egging each other on to drink, and in the height of the moment, they were even drinking with their arms intertwined in a mock toast.

He snapped the photos even faster.
