Rosalynn felt as if a bucket of ice had been poured on her.
It was Deanna, not Brian, who answered the phone.
Did she hear that right?
Brian had divorced her?
When?
Why didn’t she know?

“That’s impossible. I haven’t received any notice.”
“Have you forgotten who Brian is? He’s not someone who would need to notify you if he wanted to
divorce you,” Deanna scoffed.
“You’re one shameless woman. After making my mother suffer and tearing my family apart, you’re still
hoping that my brother would stay with you? Who the hell do you think you are?”
Rosalynn could almost feel the prick from the sharpness in her voice.
Her hand tightened around her phone. She felt her throat closing up, as if her airways had been
blocked by something.
“I don’t believe you. Let me talk to Brian. If he wants a divorce, the least he could do is tell me in
person!”
“He’s with my mother right now. He doesn’t have time to talk to you, and neither does he want to.
Alright. If you don’t believe me, I’ll send you the divorce certificate right now.”
With that, Deanna hung up, leaving Rosalynn stunned and at a loss.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter some moments, her phone lit up with a message.
Rosalynn clicked on the notification with trembling fingers.
What she saw made her blood run cold.
It was the divorce certificate of her and Brian.
So it was true.
He had dissolved their marriage on his own without even talking to her. They had been through so
much together, but in the end, all that meant nothing to him.
Her tears fell on the phone screen, rolling down the broken glass.
