I checked the time and asked Linda, "Are you going home tonight?"

She didn't speak. Instead, she lowered her head as if thinking about something.

Everyone in the room was watching the show.

"Linda is with another man in front of me. How should I react?"

My futile questioning and resistance had been ineffective two years ago.

I left without waiting for her answer.

When I reached the door, Troy chased after me.

He was dressed casually with a hint of youthfulness in his eyes.

His tone, actions, and behavior all highlighted his immaturity.

Smiling, he spoke with his tone carrying a hint of threat. He said, "Brian, you're not young anymore. Linda said you were boring. I didn't believe it."

"I believed it after meeting you today, Brian. You can't be in a relationship like this. Moreover, hurry up and get a divorce. Don't keep Linda waiting. The one who is not loved is a mistress."

His words made me laugh. "Being young is great. He can speak without thinking."

Leaning against the car door, I asked, "Did Linda tell you that I'm dragging her and I refuse to divorce her?"

He nodded.
