Let's Divorce, Ex-Husband!

Chapter 124

After returning, Trixie asked for Mrs. Clayton’s signal from Daryl.

In the evening, she lay in bed and took advantage of Daryl's bath and sent a message to Mrs. Clayton.

"Hello, Mrs. Clayton, I'm Mrs. Blayden. I felt embarrassed about what happened last time. I want to invite you to dinner tomorrow, okay?"

Not long after the message was sent, Mrs. Clayton soon replied to her.

"Of course, it's no problem. I just want to meet you, Mrs. Blayden, so we could make friends."

"Then you can decide the time and place tomorrow, Mrs. Clayton. I don't know your taste very well. I'm afraid you don't like mine."

"Anyway. Contact me tomorrow."

Was she unwilling to talk to her more?

Looking at Mrs. Clayton’s last sentence, Trixie deleted all the words in the chat box that had not been edited.

Thinking about her, she always felt that this Mrs. Clayton is not that simple to deal with.

Daryl didn't go out on Sunday, and Trixie was still a little surprised when he woke up.

He used to take Kinsley with Rick to go fishing on Sundays, but he didn't go this week?

"Wake up, Honey!"

Trixie looked bleary-eyed at Daryl, who was busy inside and outside the kitchen, and did not react at that time.

"Why didn't you go fishing with Rick today?"

"He told me that he has something to do and will make an appointment next week."

Daryl explained to Trixie while serving porridge, "I'm just free today, why don't we take Kinsley to the amusement park? I haven't been there for a long time."

After hearing the amusement park, Kinsley, who was originally in a daze, also woke up instantly, excitedly holding Daryl in pettish, and Trixie, who greeted her daughter, became sour.

The family didn't have much time together. Trixie wanted to take a break, but she suddenly remembered her meeting with Mrs. Clayton yesterday and swallowed the words on her lips.

"Why don't you take Kinsley? I have an appointment with Mrs. Clayton for tea today. The last time was too embarrassing. It really doesn't make sense not to apologize in person."

Hearing Trixie's words, Daryl's smile stiffened, obviously a little unhappy.

But Trixie did not know whether he was unhappy because she could not go to the amusement park or because she had an appointment with Mrs. Clayton.

"That's okay. I'll take Kinsley to play then you go see Mrs. Clayton. When you come back in the evening, we'll go out to eat a new food stall nearby. It's not bad."

"Okay."

Trixie nodded and smiled.

However, not long after Daryl finished porridge, his phone rang.

Trixie thought it was his own and wanted to reach for it, but Daryl quickly picked up his phone.

His abnormal behavior made Trixie feel a little puzzled.

Realizing that Trixie looked wrong, he smiled awkwardly and raised his mobile phone. "It should be a matter for the company. I'll pick it up."

Before Trixie responded, he stood up directly and entered the study room.

Hearing the sound of the door being locked, Trixie became more and more suspicious.

Whose call was that?

If it was Eddison or Erin or someone else in the company, Daryl would sit there and answer the question gracefully.

She did not understand what important secrets she, as a wife, could not listen to.

Or was it that the caller was not from the company at all?

Thinking of this possibility, Trixie stood up directly and walked to the door of the study room and knocked on the door.

Nothing happened inside.

Trixie frowned lightly and knocked hard again, only to hear the sound of Daryl’s feet, walking inside.

After a few seconds, the door was opened and Daryl was still answering the phone.

Looking at his slightly impatient appearance, Trixie sipped her lips slightly and lowered her voice and said, "The porridge is cold, drink it now, otherwise you will have a stomachache when you drink it later."

Daryl didn't answer her, just nodded, and then continued to communicate with the people on the other side of the phone.

Trixie vaguely heard that the voice on the other side of the phone was a woman, but what they said was really a matter of work.

Was she really paranoid?

Just as she was still wondering if she had misunderstood Daryl, he hung up the phone.

Looking at Trixie, he said helplessly, "Honey, can you not disturb me when I answer the phone in the future? In case I lose the project because of some small things, I can't afford the responsibility."

His words made Trixie felt bad.

After nine years of marriage, that was the first time Daryl had spoken loudly to her for work reasons, with a tone of complaint.

That really made Trixie unbearable.

The man had really changed. She still didn't believe what Jessa told her before.

But now, she really believed it.

Even if you love each other again, a man will eventually get tired of a woman.

"Well, I see."

Trixie finished drinking porridge in a hurry, put the bowl in the dishwasher and went directly into the bedroom. Daryl wanted to continue talking to her, but she ignored it.

After noticing Trixie's mood was unpleasant, Daryl didn't even have time to finish the meal, so he quickly stood up and followed Trixie to the bedroom.

He went after her and tried to get in the room but Trixie closed the door directly and almost hit Daryl's nose.

"Honey! Sorry honey! I was really run short of patience and said something wrong to you. Don't take it personally! Honey, open the door!"

Listening to him shouting hard outside the door, Trixie didn't want to talk to him at all.

She curled up and wrapped herself in the quilt, closed her eyes and covered her ears, and didn't want to hear his voice.

Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated.

Trixie hesitated for a moment, then took a look at her mobile phone. It was a message from Mrs. Clayton.

"I have something to do today. I'll make an appointment on another day."

A few words give her an impression that she was very busy.

However, her husband also asked her to help talk about his business projects. He should be a strong woman.

Unlike full-time wives like Jessa and Clayton, they should usually help their husbands' business and take care of their children.

Trixie felt tired when she thought about it, and felt a little disbelief.

At that time, she had just given birth to Kinsley and had rested at home for two or three years before she came out to look for a job. Fortunately, Daryl was capable and earned enough money to make her a full-time wife.

However, Trixie became busy when Kinsley was old enough to go to school, she found a job without saying anything. She wanted to help Daryl share the pressure and didn't want his burden to be too heavy. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Although the bulk of the family's burden was still on Daryl, she also earned a little. It was easier for two people to support the family than one.

Thinking about her naive thoughts, Trixie wanted to laugh.

If she had been a full-time wife like Jessa, taking care of her children at home every day and having afternoon tea with other wives, would this not have happened now?

No.

She resolutely denied her idea, and even thought it was ridiculous.

Because she knew very well that if a man really wanted to cheat, the tiredness of work alone couldn’t stop her.

After all, time management was also a science.
