Kyle was shocked by the gesture Calista had shown him because he never expected her to reciprocate his energy but this confirmed that this was becoming a serious thing.
However, his earlier conversation with her regarding Jane and Ella told him that she was one to accept him having multiple women as long as he didn’t neglect her.
Or he would have gotten a more violent reaction from her when he told her he did leave with some women.
Calista’s main concern was to maintain her spot in his life even if he did have other women.
She knew how these things worked so it wouldn’t surprise her nonetheless.
She left Kyle alone soon after and allowed him to have the day to himself just like he planned to.
He hopped on his gaming console and played some games, most notably God of War: Ragnarok.
This was one of his favourite games because it symbolized Kratos’ journey from a brute to a gentle god.
The character development was up there and this was one of those games that could be classified as the greatest of all time.
Kyle spent at least an hour or so playing but then his phone got an unexpected message from an unknown number.
He tried to figure out who he was but he came up blank, Kyle wanted to respond but he was in no hurry.
If someone was texting with an unknown number, it was common courtesy to introduce themselves. But this wasn’t the first time that an unknown number had tried to contact him in the past couple of days.
Kyle wasn’t the one going to drag this out as he had nothing to lose or gain by ignoring them because it was none of his business in the end. However, his phone soon buzzed again– a minute later.
Kyle looked at it again but this time, it was more than a simple greeting and he instantly recognized this person.
“Cassandra?” Kyle muttered to himself, dropping his controller because he thought she was done with him.
She had blocked his number after all so this was a surprise but this also confirmed it was her that called him that day.
Kyle picked up the phone and shot her a text, asking how she had been and Cassandra responded like she usually would.
Kyle realized that she might have needed time to process what had happened but if she was talking to him once again then things must be alright.
Kyle was surprised to see that she was inviting him over to her place once again. free𝑤ebnovel.com
“Is this some sort of set-up?” Kyle thought to himself, the timing was too convenient.
There had to be an ulterior motive for her to suddenly want him in her house considering she was married but then again, his system had an inaccurate read on her.
That shouldn’t have been the case but Kyle knew that this might work out in his favor.
He agreed to meet up, he switched off his game but he didn’t plan to use his car as that would draw unwanted attention.
There was no way they wouldn’t notice a car of that calibre parked in the neighbourhood that wasn’t used to such sights.
Kyle arrived there in a little over an hour but remained skeptical about the nature of the meet-up.
He noticed that the neighbourhood was a suburb with little activity, it was the perfect place to raise a family.
However, it was too drab for Kyle’s liking as it reminded him of the neighbourhood of the show called, Desperate Housewives with nosey cheating housewives littered everywhere.
Maybe that was why Cassandra was the way she was. Not that he minded.
It wasn’t in his place to act as a moral compass for anyone because she was even older than he was, she should have more experience when it comes to certain things.
Kyle texted her that he had arrived but he stood some distance away from the door to observe her.
This could be her husband trying to get his revenge on him but out came Cassandra.
She looked around but didn’t see anyone, she picked up her phone and texted Kyle.
All while he was watching her do it and that was when he decided to come out.
Cassandra immediately caught him and waved him down, Kyle was surprised that she wanted to see him in public.
He expected her to want to sneak him in so there would be no evidence of his being here but this gave him a sense of security as there was no way that he wouldn’t be seen by at least one person.
If anything should happen to him, there would be traces of him here.
Kyle approached her and he could tell that there was something different about her.
She looked… happy and Kyle looked over his shoulder to see that a few people were watching them.
“Hey, you…” Kyle began the conversation but Cassandra gave him a full-teeth smile.
“Hi! Want to come in, stranger?” Cassandra requested, Kyle felt like he was talking to a different person.
“Does she have a split personality?” Kyle thought to himself, he dared not verbalize his thoughts.
“Sure thing Cassey,” Kyle responded and they both entered the house.
“I must say, I’m surprised you reached out to me after that incident,” Kyle brought it up right away but this was in part to see her reaction.
“I was overwhelmed, I didn’t know what to do at that moment,” Cassandra confessed.
“So it had nothing to do with the fact that you’re married?” Kyle questioned, he noticed the portraits on the wall didn’t have any male figures.
It was only pictures of her and her child, there was no way she would be married and not have a picture of her husband on there.
“About that…” Cassandra said, smiling awkwardly.
“We’re in the middle of a divorce,” Cassandra finally revealed the nature of her relationship with the man.
