Chapter 230
Caleb waited.
Later, Skr checked her phone once she was done with her work. When she saw Caleb’s question, she replied, “Yes, I posted this. I’m married.”
Caleb felt his world crumble when he read her reply. He was absolutely dumbstruck.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
“You didn’t forgive that jerk because he begged you for forgiveness, did you?” Caleb refused to give up.
“He’s not the one I married; it’s someone else my rtives introduced me to. We’re pleased with each other. Don’t worry; this time, I thought it through.”
Caleb’s eyes reddened. He had no choice but to reply, “I wish you all the happiness.”
When Alexander and John returned home, they saw Caleb with reddened eyes.
He seemed to be on the verge of bursting into tears. The books scattered across the bed were now neatly. stacked into a pile on one side.
Alexander and John exchanged a nce. It was Caleb’s first time having his heart broken. He seemed fine for now.
“What’s wrong?” Alexander asked even though he knew the answer.
Caleb looked at him. His almond–shaped eyes looked hurt. “I’m heartbroken.”
“That’s no big deal. You can’t be a true man without going through a few heartbreaks,” said John casually, seemingly having experienced the same situation.
Rendered speechless, Caleb shot him a nce. “Going through that many heartbreaks only makes you a flirt. How else would you have your heart broken so many times? You and I are different.”
“Different or not, you’re heartbroken <b>too</b>, right?” Joe was about to kick him. But considering that Caleb was probably feeling down, he <b>decided </b>not to hold it against Caleb.
Alexander was speechless. He pped John on the head. “Be <b>nice</b>.”
How worrisome! John was Caleb’s uncle; didn’t he <b>know </b>how to behave like <b>one</b>?
John felt wronged. “Dad, why did <b>you </b>hit me? He’s still young. People his age fall in love every now and then. He’s bound to get his heart broken more than a few times.”
“It’s different. You know how great Skr is. I will never find another woman who’s as great as her!”
Caleb’s heart ached at that thought.
Who on earth was that man? He <b>had </b>made a move so quickly!
“There are many women out there. Let’s see what you think after ten years,” said John.
He had gone through the same phase ten years ago and had thought that there were no other decent women in this world. Back then, when he had gotten dumped, he had thought it was the end of <b>the </b>world.

Now, he realized <b>he </b>had been too young at that time to know better.
Alexander chimed in, “As you get older and reach my <b>age</b>, you’ll learn to move on no matter what happens.
Caleb didn’t know what to say as he looked at them.
“Moving on is not a problem. I’ve already moved on! It doesn’t matter that she’s married. I can be her younger brother or friend; that willst forever. In contrast, marriages won’t necessarilyst forever.”
Oh! Had he already moved on? Alexander <b>and </b>John were surprised.
He was a Gardner, after all; having a carefree nature was innate to them.
“I’ll wait for that man to do something foolish and divorce her. By then, I’ll be all grown–up, so I’ll be able to marry her! I’ll just wait for that day toe!” Caleb narrowed his eyes, as though he could envision that happening already.
Upon hearing that, Alexander and John were dazed.
That… Well, that would do.
At least he had moved on.
Joe came to pick Skr up from work. They sat in the backseat of the car as Lucas drove smoothly.
Joe asked, “Do you want to have dinner outside or at home?”
“Let’s have it at home. We’ve been eating out for the past few days. My stomach’s starting to feel uneasy,”
Skr replied.
It was fine to eat out asionally, but having outside food too frequently would lead to an upset
stomach.
Truth be told, Joe missed her cooking. So, he said, “Alright.”
