The Year She Stopped Being Crazy for Him novel Chapter 335

Jude's mind went entirely blank.

Cora wasn't important to him.

It was true—he had even intentionally held himself back, speaking to her as little as possible.

His marriage to her was the result of an accident, a shotgun wedding.

Cora and the child represented his betrayal of his Flower. So at first, he had truly despised her.

He even suspected she had orchestrated the whole thing just to force his hand into marriage.

But after tying the knot, he realized she didn't have the guts to pull something like that off. Consequently, his resentment towards her faded.

Yet she seemed to possess an innate, magnetic pull over him, constantly making him want to draw closer.

He viewed this as a betrayal to Gardenia, which was why he rarely went home. If he wasn't home, he didn't have to share a space with her.

They had so few memories together, yet for some inexplicable reason, in this very moment, he remembered every single one with crystal clarity.

On rainy days, she would remind him to take an umbrella. When the temperature dropped, she would remind him to wear a jacket.

When she first got pregnant with Mia, she would text him constantly.

She sent pictures of cute baby clothes from maternity stores, or rambled about random, amusing little things.

He knew almost nothing about her, yet she knew so much about him.

Every gift she ever gave him was absolutely perfect.

The more time he spent with her, the deeper his sense of betraying Gardenia grew.

He felt he wasn't just betraying Gardenia, but also betraying the lonely, helpless Jude he had once been in the hospital.

He wanted Cora to stay away from him voluntarily, so he told her she was free to find someone she actually liked. But deep down, he only dared to say such cruel things because he was utterly convinced she would never actually seek out anyone else.
