Chapter 206
"Henry is truly in love with you, Ma’am," Michael said. "You’re the only one who makes such drastic change in him."
Kate leaned on the backseat as she tried to let everything seep in.
The truth was truly a bitter pill that was difficult to swallow.
What Michael said was true. She didn’t integrate Henry into her life. They were dating, but most of the time, Kate would do her own thing without Henry, even though that shouldn’t happen, especially when it was an activity that greatly concerned Henry.
Kate stared at Michael, who was still trying to drive in this bad weather. She could sense that Michael was upset with the fight, probably because he was Henry’s closest friend.
"I think it’s because of my habit with Matt," Kate confessed. "When iI was with him, I simply did my own thing. My ex-husband is the type who’d ignore me completely unless he needs something. So I feel like we’re just roommates instead of a husband and wife."
"He never cares whenever I get sick or exhausted because of work. He also never tries to call me—not even once—whenever I have to take an overtime at work," Kate sighed. "All he asked was if I make enough money by working overtime."
"So I always do my own thing without thinking twice or waiting for someone’s opinion," Kate said.
She forgot one thing about being in a real relationship;
She had her man’s heart to keep. She had to make sure that her decision wouldn’t hurt Henry, and if it did, then they should’ve discussed a way to solve the problem.
"Well, Matt is a leech, a deadbeat, obviously," Michael commented. "But Henry is not like that, Ma’am. He has the whole life planned for his small family. He’s just struggling to find a way to put it in motion."
