Crises in Love novel Chapter 421

Geneva snatched the phone from my hand and scrutinized the photo. After a moment, she slowly shook her head. " I've never seen this guy before. With a look like that, you'd think he’d be unforgettable, but..."

"Maybe he's not from Goldenvale Town?" I questioned, my suspicion piqued by Geneva's response.

"Possibly! I wouldn’t forget a face like that!" Geneva scoffed, her meaning clear without further words.

"The guy’s bad news!" I dismissed the man with a wave of my hand, adding, "The Dawson brothers can always find the most creepy people possible! How did I marry into that family? Alas..." I abruptly covered my face in embarrassment.

Geneva laughed and draped an arm around my shoulder. "Don't beat yourself up. Everyone gets it wrong sometimes. People are hard to read. And let's face it, the Dawsons are good actors. No wonder you were taken in. It's normal! Now that you've woken up and cut your losses, that's what counts. Doesn't matter how long it took to see this guy for what he is. Better late than never!"

"Geneva, spare me the comfort talk. 'Better late than never'? I've got three kids with him before I realized whether he was man or monster. How blind could I be? Just thinking about it gives me nightmares!"

Geneva, hearing this, laughed boisterously and playfully punched my shoulder. "Oh, come on! Is it really that dramatic?"

With a dead-serious face, I replied, "It really is. All this stress is eating me up inside. I can't sleep at night. How foolish must I be to be strung along by such a person? Sometimes, I just want to jump off a building and start all over."

Geneva quickly turned to me. "Remember what you said just now. Don't entertain such dark thoughts!"

I looked at her, reassured. "Don't worry about that. He's not worth it. I wouldn't throw my life away over him! I meant like in those books where people get to start over. I'd choose to stay single for life rather than give him another glance. The very thought of him leaves such a dark shadow in my mind!"

Both Geneva and Hannah, who had been listening, burst out laughing.
