My heart sank to my stomach. I anxiously asked Riley, “Are you not going to divorce Adam anymore?”
“No.” Riley shook her head. “I can’t divorce him now because I have something more important to do.”

But this was too big a sacrifice for her to make!
After all, Riley already saw through Adam’s hypocrisy. She knew about his countless affairs and other despicable behaviors. But now, in order to save the town, she had to force herself to stay with such a scumbag.
It was too cruel!
“Riley, are you sure you want to do this?” I asked worriedly, reaching out to take her hand.
Riley nodded solemnly.
“This is the only way.”
“Riley, you already know that Adam has cheated on you on more than one occasion. He has even cheated on you with Janiya. Yet you still choose to forgive him. It’s ridiculous!” Caleb spat.
Riley’s expression darkened, but she maintained a level head and didn’t get angry.

Riley’s eyes flashed with anger and hurt.
Caleb had definitely crossed the line, so I turned around to confront him. “Caleb, this is none of your business!”
“Whatever,” said Caleb, waving his hand dismissively.
What with Caleb’s bad attitude, I was no longer in the mood to follow him, so I decided to leave with Riley.
