Cherish the Years of Yearning
Language: en
Six years into our secret marriage with Elias Coolidge, we decided on a secret divorce. To spare his new girlfriend from the ignominy of being called a home-wrecker, he said, "I don't want anyone to know we were ever married." I nodded, said nothing, and simply added an extra zero to the property settlement. Elias's face changed. "In your heart, is there really nothing but money?" I chuckled softly. "After all these years, you still know me best."
