Chapter 8: Chapter 8 She Signed The Paper

Pierce’s POV

She signed the divorce papers. She signed it without thinking twice. In front of me.

A bitter smile spilled as I downed another glass of brandy.

I should be happy about that when I was the one who asked for the divorce. But…but my heart felt so heavy ever since Kelly signed the papers.

Kelly and I had been friends for over 10 years. The day she transferred to my high school, I accidentally bumped into her by the lake. She looked like a frightened kitten, carefully hiding her true self behind that thick antique eyeglasses. That was interesting.

I didn't realize that nerdy transfer girl in everyone's eyes would be the daughter of my mother's best friend. With that, we grew to be friends. Best friends.
