章 258: Chapter 258: Saviours, Part 16, Five Years Ago

“Chad, can I talk to you.”

His eyes lift to hers. "Hello, Jenny. What is it?”

“I wanted to tell you, I'm leaving.”

“I ... kind of expected it.” His words come out all in a rush. “Jenny, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault….”

“When I first came here I thought I was in heaven. It's different now.”

“You’ll want the divorce of course.”

“Yes, I do. I want to be free. I want my life back.”

“Just send the papers. I'll sign whatever you need…. You can tell the lawyer to send the bill to me as well. I’ll pay it.” He bites down on guilt and shame, tries to focus. “What will you do?”

“I’m not sure. I'll probably go to the City. Find work. Take it from there.”

“When are you going?”

“Tomorrow. I just want to leave quietly. You won't tell anyone will you? Not yet anyway.”

“No, not if you don’t want me to. I won't tell anyone.”
