Chapter 1075 The Deadlock (10)

• “Let’s talk business, okay? Quit rambling about nonsense.” Hearing Kate Penrose snap at Mrs. Wembley, Chadwick Fullner still felt pretty upset.
• But Kate wouldn’t let it go. She clamped onto the topic and wouldn’t release: “What, I can’t call it like I see it? Don’t tell me you still can’t let go and keep pining after her. Chadwick Fullner, I’m warning you—trying to eat from one bowl while eyeing the pot, people like that deserve to end up impotent, premature, sterile, and then somehow with a house full of kids! You and Miss Sawyer went through hell and back to finally be together. So cut the side thoughts, now.”
• “Kate, I promised I wouldn’t hurt Miss Sawyer again, and I meant it. I’m taking this relationship seriously. As for Emily—if I said I completely forgot her, that’d be a lie. But I’ll keep it buried in my heart. Right now, I just want to be with Miss Sawyer and do right by her. I don’t want to overthink the rest.” Saying it out loud stung more than he’d expected.
