Chapter 18 Moira hesitated before typing out the words on her cell phone screen. [My father won’t give you a hard time about us getting married. If he does, feel free to tell me. I’ll talk to him.] She knew how Aiken was. He trusted her, but he could be overprotective. She married Barclay suddenly, which could cause Aiken to overthink the situation and confrent Barclay. Moira felt she had caused a lot of trouble for Barclay only on the first day of their marriage, and she didn’t want more. Barclay: [That won’t be necessary, Mrs. Covington.] Moira was embarrassed by his reply. It seemed she was the one who overthought. ‘He is not quite like how I have imagined. Never mind. We will divorce sooner or later, she thought. She shook her head to rid herself of the irrelevant thoughts. The dinner was scheduled for tomorrow. She had a tough battle ahead of her and needed a good night’s sleep. Probably, the victory against Claire had given her great pleasure. She took her medicine and then quickly fell asleep. However, it was going to be a sleepless night for some people. Claire wanted to use the trending topic to irritate Moira. If Moira went hysterical and lost her temper on Alfie, she would intentionally call and s**b apologies to make Moira look like an unreasonable b**h. A trending topic like this on their anniversary was enough to disgust Moira. But things didn’t go her way. Actually, they went exactly the opposite way. With Moira marrying Barclay, the trending topic she bought was like a knife handed to Moira against herself. She became a joke. When she was about to find someone to post about her depression to turn public opinion around, Allie made a move before her.

She was so angry that she called Alfie in the middle of the night. Seeing the cell phone light up, Alfie thought it was Moira’s call, but the caller ID was Claire. He was a little disappointed, but he picked up the phone anyway. “Claire? Is everything okay?” he asked. “Alfie, did I wake you up?” Claire’s voice was soft and gentle, and she seemed sobbing. Alfie felt protective of her immediately. “No. I haven’t slept yet.” “Is it because Moira wouldn’t forgive you?” Claire asked. Thinking of Moira, Alfie felt a headache. He massaged his temples. “Yeah.” “it’s all my fault. You and Moira wouldn’t have gotten into such a mess if it weren’t for mel Alfie, let me apologize to Moira againt I’ll kneel and beg her. promise her I won’t even contact you in the future!” Claire said while crying. Most men couldn’t bear to watch a woman cry. And Claire was crying because of him and Moira. Alfie felt so bad about it. “No, Claire, it’s not like that. I’ll sort things out. You have a good rest and get well soon, okay?” He comforted her. “But it’s because of me that you Claire said and whimpered. Allie was afraid that she would hurt herself, so he talked with her and even told her about the dinner tomorrow.
