Chapter 119
"Annalise must've been aware of this," Gavin said. "You two were married for six years. Even if she didn't develop feelings for you, she must at least be possessive of you."
He explained further, "To reconcile, she would try everything she could to trigger you. First, she pretended to no longer be in love with you by treating another man well. You'd feel upset because of that.
"Then, you couldn't help but miss her. If you couldn't suppress the urge to meet her, she'd pretend to be close to other men."
Steven never thought Annalise would do all that just to get back with him. His frustration gradually dissipated after hearing Gavin's explanation.
With a smile, he asked, "What should I do, then?"
"Ignore her," said Gavin nonchalantly. "She'll eventually realize that those tactics don't work on you, and she'll come back to you sobbing and asking you to get back with her."
The image of Annalise crying, her eyes red and puffy, appeared in Steven's mind, and he chuckled at it.
