Chapter 406 Wide Berth

It was awkward. It was not all that surprising, considering the fact that it was the first time that they were together, with no one else in the room, since their divorce. After his shower, Zayn had recovered much of his spirit. At the very least, he did not look as lost and in shambles as he was just moments ago. It took a lot to reduce a man of his fortitude into such a dolorous mess, but it was impossibly appalling news that drove him to the edge. Faye, on the other hand, had a weaker constitution. Despite the soothing, warm bath that she took, she still managed to catch a cold from the ordeal, releasing a salvo of rapid-fire sneeze until the tip of her nose was red all over. She looked pretty terrible. “A-choo!” She sneezed again. Zayn had been standing in front of her, so the snot splattered all over his face—a feat that greatly embarrassed her. “God, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to!” “It’s alright,” Zayn replied, shaking his head before heading to the bathroom to wash his face.
