My ex husband wants me back (Daven and Althea) novel Chapter 779

Cale walked toward Lydia, who still had not moved from where she stood. Guilt lingered heavily inside him because of all this, but still…

“Come here.” He held out his hand, expecting Lydia to take it the way she usually would.

Unfortunately, Lydia’s anger made her ignore the gesture entirely. Instead, she crossed her arms tightly over her chest and shot him a sharp look, making it very clear she did not want Cale touching her right now.

“You’re really angry?”

“What do you think?” Lydia replied sarcastically.

This time, Cale spoke more seriously as he held her gaze. “Alright. I’ll explain everything without hiding anything anymore. It’s not that I didn’t want to tell you, it’s just—”

“At a time like this, you’re still trying to come up with excuses?” Lydia’s emotions began rising again. “Do you want me to think you were actually planning to marry this girl?” She pointed toward Naomi, who still could not stop crying.

“No, Mrs. Lydia! Really! I could never want something like that!” Naomi sobbed harder.

But Lydia did not immediately turn her attention toward her.

“Of course not, Darling.” Cale gave a faint smile. “We might as well settle everything now.”

He walked toward the sofa in the middle of the room. “You too, Naomi. There’s something I need to explain about what happened in the past.”

Lydia kept watching him carefully, still wary of whatever he was about to say.

“Sit down.” Cale patted the space beside him on the sofa. “You want to listen to my explanation while standing there?”

Lydia’s eyes still carried hesitation, but eventually, she slowly calmed a little. She knew her husband too well. If Cale had decided to speak now, then there really was something significant he had never told her before.

“And you too, Naomi. Are you going to keep crying?” Cale asked while rubbing his temple slowly. “Calm yourself first.”

Naomi turned to stare at him in disbelief. How could Cale stay this calm after everything that had just happened?
