Draven.
One. Two. Three.
Five seconds passed before I could finish processing what Meredith had just said to me.
The first question that came to my mind was—
Was our relationship that good for her to openly talk about the past?
I didn't think so, especially given the circumstances surrounding our marriage. But that didn't mean I wasn't slowly letting go of that mindset and slowly accepting her.
She is my mate and wife.
But then, I understood something from Meredith's confession.
She was still hurt by my actions.
Honestly, I didn't know what to say about that. I didn't feel I owed her an apology, and I can't explain it.
Something else I came to understand was that my past actions were the reason Meredith disregarded me.
It was the reason she was unconsciously rude to me without considering my position, or her impolite retorts and actions.
Now, I understood that her grudges had a huge part to play in the way she received me.
