The Indifferent Ex-Husband: Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate novel Chapter 460

Grace spotted Brandon's furrowed brow and immediately got jittery, "Something up?"

"Nah," Brandon snapped back to reality, "You do your thing, I gotta jet."

With that, Brandon hung up, but he still felt antsy.

Beneath that agitation was a hint of spiteful resignation, "Fine, she's gone, so be it." Especially when he remembered how she coolly discussed pulling the wool over his eyes with his dad in the hospital room.

The resolve she showed by walking away hurt him way more than he had imagined.

Her heart was tougher than anyone else's.

Better to cut the cord than to drag this out.

With that mood, Brandon didn't bother to check with Don about Sophia's business trip details.

But the whole thing messed with his head so much that he paced out of the office before the end of the day.

Kent watched the whole emotional rollercoaster, clueless about what went down but sure it had something to do with Sophia.

He just couldn't figure out how things had done a 180 when they seemed to be on the up and up just a short while ago.

After mulling it over, he couldn't help but shoot Susan a text, [What's up with Sophia and Mr. Crawley lately?]

Susan was at work, baffled by the text, [What do you mean 'what's up'?]

[Haven't you noticed they're off?]

Susan didn't reply.
