Chapter 81

• Nicholas: [Don't forget to come; we're playing billiards tonight as usual.]
• Tristan read Nicholas's message again and sighed quietly. This time, he really wasn't in the mood for a usual hangout.
• There were many reasons why Tristan was reluctant to attend. First, he was still troubled by whether or not to approve the divorce petition Olivia had filed. Second, he was trying to come to terms with himself to accept Raphael as his biological father. Finally, there was Kimberly. Tristan couldn’t forget his promise to her. Overwhelmed by so many issues, he felt like he was going crazy. Going out to play billiards or hanging out with friends wasn't the right choice right now.
