Chapter 1306 Leaving the Country

The three women lay quietly in bed. They didn't laugh and joke around like they thought they would, nor did they

drown in the sorrow of separation either. All was silent.

They were all staring at the white ceiling above them.

Roxanna always expressed her fondness for the way Nicole's room had been designed, but she never had the

chance to experience the room for herself. At last, she got to do it today.

"Nicole, Chloe."

Roxanna spoke up abruptly, but she fell silent again after saying their names.

Nicole and Chloe didn't turn toward her. They kept staring at the ceiling, though their eyes flickered with emotion.

"This bed is so comfortable!"

Roxanna suddenly cried out as she reached out to place her hands on both their waists.

Nicole and Chloe smiled and patted her hand. Neither one of them spoke.

"Okay, then. Let's go to sleep! I'm so sleepy. I was so nervous during the negotiations today. Thank goodness

everything went well."

Roxanna withdrew her hands and straightened her body. Her chest began heaving.

Nicole and Chloe turned away in total unison. They had their backs toward Roxanna, who was in the center between

them.

When Roxanna noticed this, her tears began to pour out of her. She had tried her best to rein them in, but it didn't

work.

I'm so weak.

Though her sobbing was very quiet, the stillness of the room made it extremely noticeable.

Nicole and Chloe squeezed their eyes shut and pretended to be asleep, but tears were trickling out the sides of

their eyes too.

They were all too reluctant to part with each other.

…

After a busy day, Colton got ready to head back to the home he had stayed away for a very long time now.

He didn't know if Evelyn had come to her senses or had given up, but either way, she no longer came looking for

him.

Colton was glad about that. He thought it was good that Evelyn was wise enough to stop.

He slowly opened the door, only to realize that the lights in the living room were on. There was an unfamiliar pair of

men's shoes by the door.

A guest?

Colton raised his eyebrows.

Even if Evelyn was fooling around with another man, she wouldn't have brought him back here, though he would be

more than happy if she did.

"You're back." Isaac, who was sitting on the couch, stood up when he heard the door closed and was greeted by the

sight of a startled Colton.

He smirked as if he had predicted Colton's reaction.

"Isaac," Colton greeted with a chuckle. He walked into the living room and the two men sat down across from each

other.

"Are you finally willing to come back and focus your attention here?" Colton's lips curved into a seemingly teasing

smile.

"You could say that." Isaac's brows were slightly raised. He seemed to be used to Colton's attitude.

"Why did you come here at this hour of the night?" Colton chuckled as he crossed his legs. He was exhausted.

Isaac didn't answer right away. Instead, he began to swirl the glass of red wine he was holding.

Colton sensed something. He quickly checked the year on the bottle of wine. It was one of those that he treasured

most.

"Did you set your sights on my precious wine just as soon as you got back, Isaac?" Colton questioned through

gritted teeth.

All of a sudden, Isaac's expression turned serious. "Your ex-wife is about to leave the country. Her flight's tomorrow,

but I don't know when. That's all I can tell you," he said solemnly.

Colton stiffened slightly before letting out a self-deprecating chuckle. "As you said, she's my ex-wife, so why are you

bringing her up?"

He couldn't face Nicole. He had betrayed her.

She must be leaving with Zachary. I suppose she's migrating. Colton heard about Zachary's business doing well

abroad.

"You can't fool me." Isaac set the wine glass down and let out a heavy sigh. "Tell me what happened between you

two."

He had been abroad the whole time. All he knew was that Colton had met the love of his life. However, when he

came back to the country, he heard that Colton had gotten a divorce.

The image of how happy Colton had been back then kept replaying in Isaac's head. He had no idea what happened

between the couple.
