John Brown had no idea that just two random pedestrians nearby would make Gina Lopez think he was still involved in some secret doings. Even less did he expect Gina's current indifference toward him wasn't due to a lack of feelings, or treating him as a stranger, but rather a form of care.
Gina Lopez's attitude led John to believe she had completely given up on him, signaling the inevitable collapse of their marriage.
John gave a self-mocking smile and lightly shook his head. He hadn't expected this marriage to end so quickly. He truly felt a pang of reluctance regarding Gina, but since she had already made up her mind, he wasn't going to force her. After all, a forced relationship never ends sweetly, and given all his current entanglements, this marriage was indeed difficult for Gina to endure.
Exhaling deeply, John felt a wave of relief. Without the constraints of marriage, he wouldn't need to overthink things anymore.
