Garrett’s visage bore the weight of exhaustion, his desolate expression a far cry from the suave and
debonair nobleman he once was.
For the first time, Janet saw him in such a state, gasping in astonishment,
“What’s wrong with you?”
With a feeble attempt at a smile, Garrett replied, “I’m fine.” Brandon crossed his arms and regarded him
with indifference. “You can’t torment yourself like this just because your wife and child left you. Who are
you trying to impress with this misery?” His eyes shimmering with pain, Garrett murmured, “Yes, they’re
not with me, and no one will care about what I look like.”
The memory of the last time ninjanovel.com he saw Laney and their baby had grown hazy. To alleviate
his pain, Janet quickly changed the subject. “What brings. you to us today?” Snapping out of his
thoughts, he managed a bitter smile. “I wanted to share a meal with you. Do you have time?”
Exchanging glances, Janet and Brandon sighed.
They retreated to an elegant restaurant, reserving the most secluded private room.
As the food arrived, Garrett filled his glass with wine and downed it in one swift motion.
“Laney…” Garrett paused, his voice muffled. “Is she doing well? Are she and our baby happy over
there?”
Janet chose her words carefully before responding, “They’re doing fine. I spoke with her a few days
ago, and she said they’re happy there, and your baby is thriving.”
She assumed Garrett would find solace in her words, but, to her surprise, he merely shook his head
and released a wry chuckle. Undeterred, he continued to drown his sorrows in several more glasses of
wine.
“Garrett, you…” Janet glanced at Brandon, hoping that as his close friend, he would advise moderation.
But Brandon shook his head, whispering, “Let him release his emotions. He’s been holding them in for
too long.”
As a close friend of Garrett’s, Brandon maintained contact with him, staying informed about his
situation to some degree.
Ever since Laney had taken their child and left, Garrett had buried his pain beneath an avalanche of
work, fearing he might lose control and hurt them if he sought them out.
He never returned to his family home, either.
Ever since Laney’s departure, Garrett found refuge either in his office or the once-promising abode he
and Laney had acquired. Despite his parents’ persistent pleas for his return, he stood his ground,
unwavering in his refusal.
Their relationship strained, Leo and Vera found themselves in a quandary. They didn’t dare to trouble
Laney again, nor did they insist on seeing their granddaughter.
Garrett didn’t cease until the last drop of wine on the table had vanished.
Inebriated, Garrett slumped against the table, eyeing the two friends. “Why are you still so close?”
He laughed bitterly, his sorrow palpable. “If you ever have children, you’ll make wonderful parents.
Unlike me—I’m useless, unable to see my wife and daughter.”
Brandon, typically composed, furrowed his brow at Garrett’s anguish. “When do you plan to bring
Laney and your baby back?” he inquired.
“Bring them back? Do I even deserve that?” Garrett’s voice cracked, clutching his hair. “Laney wants to
divorce me! She asked for a divorce! She doesn’t want me anymore!”
“What?” Both Brandon and Janet reeled in shock.
“What happened? Did Laney tell you she wants a divorce? Could there be a misunderstanding?” Janet,
perplexed, asked.
She had never heard Laney mention divorce, and her conversations with her suggested she still loved
Garrett.
Despair etched on his face, Garrett choked out, “Yesterday, I received a divorce agreement from Laney,
along with the wedding ring she returned to me…”
