Chapter 16
Kate paused for a moment. Her heart was aching not because she loved Matt, but because of his casual tone. He made it seem as if cheating was an ordinary thing and that Kate shouldn’t be upset about it.
What made it worse was the way he tried to assure Kate that she would still be his "Official Wife."
As if he thought it was what she wanted.
Kate didn’t turn around to confront him, she did not want Matt to see how much grief and pain his words gave her. So she simply continued packing her dresses and shoes inside her luggage and stayed silent, acting like she hadn’t heard a single word coming out of his filthy mouth.
Matt clicked his tongue, "Why are you throwing a tantrum like this? You know well enough that I’m not sleeping with Erin by choice, right? This is all because of you, it’s your fault, because you are barren and barely a woman!? You’ve failed to fulfill your responsibility, it’s natural for me to find another woman to have a child with."
Kate clenched one of her dresses as she continued to ignore him. She knew that she’d get even more upset if she responded.
Matt’s patience started to thin. He had been kind enough to explain their situation, and he thought that Kate should have at least understood his position.
Matt marched up behind her and grabbed her arm. He stopped her from finishing packing her things, "You know there is a lot of pressure from my mom. She wants to have a grandchild, and you can’t give her that one simple request. Besides, Erin is your sister, right? She’s the best candidate for me to have a child with, being sisters, you both naturally look similar and share the same genes. You shouldn’t be upset about this, at least I chose her amongst dozen of women who want me."
Kate finally turned around and glared at Matt with her eyes red from holding back her tears.
