I Want a Divorce by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 576 Don’t Be A Fool For Love!

Startled, Cameron stammered, “O-Okay.”

After hanging up, Abigail turned to the sobbing Isla and handed her a tissue. Taking it, Isla sniffled and

whimpered without saying a word.

Analise had prepared some snacks for Isla and gazed at her adoringly. “That kid has never been in

love before and says things without thinking because he’s a straightforward man. Don’t cry

anymore.”

Abigail thought that Cameron didn’t love Isla enough. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said those things.

Isla’s eyes were bloodshot as tears continued to roll down her cheeks. “I know that he doesn’t love me.

Maybe he just agreed to date me because I pursued him.”

Gently, Abigail patted her shoulder. “In a relationship, when one person is too assertive, it can make the

other person seem passive. But you’re already doing better than others by having the courage to

pursue your love.”

“But what’s the point? He doesn’t care about me at all,” Isla sobbed between sniffles.

“Here, have something to eat. You can’t force love to happen. Besides, he might be disheartened

knowing that your parents oppose this relationship. I’m not asking you to convince your parents, but

you can’t be the only one trying to balance both sides,” Analise said. “If you truly love him, I’ll visit your

parents on his behalf and talk to them.”

“It’s pointless because my parents are stubborn. After he left, they criticized him even more harshly,

and if I didn’t have classes to attend, they would have locked me up in the house.” Tears welled up in

Isla’s eyes again. “They want to introduce me to their friends, but I don’t like their sons at all.”

Taking out another tissue, Abigail asked Analise to leave the room before speaking softly to Isla, “I was

once deeply in love with someone and managed to marry him. In the end, things didn’t turn out well,

and I was oppressed and suffocated by his parents for three years.”

With her bloodshot eyes, Isla stared at her. “But Cameron doesn’t have parents.”

“Given the circumstances, you need to be more cautious. Even though your parents are unreasonable,

Cameron is right about one thing. Do you think your parents provided you with education and the best

things in life just so that you would one day have a conflict with them over a man? A woman can live

without a man, but who will help you when you’re in trouble if you lose your parents? Will you rely on

your friends?” Abigail said with a heavy heart, holding her hand.

No matter how Isla’s parents reacted, Abigail couldn’t criticize them harshly. After all, it was undeniable

that Cameron came from a less privileged background, which was the main reason Isla’s parents were

against this relationship.

Isla, a big-city girl pursuing her postgraduate studies, stood in stark contrast to Cameron, who hadn’t

completed his education or established a career. This made her parents uneasy about entrusting their

daughter to him. Just the thought that their daughter had fallen in love with such a person filled their

hearts with disappointment. How could they find it in their hearts to accept. him wholeheartedly?

She gradually calmed down.

“It’s not a problem to pursue your love, and I guarantee that Cameron is a good man. However, your

parents have sacrificed a lot to raise you. Instead of cloping with him, you should find another way to

communicate with your parents,” Abigail continued, reassuring her.

“What happened to you afterward?” Isla asked sadly.

“I got a divorce afterward. Right now, all you think about is love, but what will you do once you don’t

have it anymore in the future? Don’t lose yourself in the pursuit of love. As you love him deeply, it’s

even more important for you to carefully consider how the both of you will maintain. this relationship,”

Abigail added softly.

“I understand. I’ll go home in a while.” Finally, she was convinced by Abigail, but the next second,

shock washed over her. “Hey, you were married and divorced, but nobody knew about it!”

“That’s my private matter. Are you going to spread it?” Abigail asked with a grin.

Isla pouted. “I’m not a gossip. Although I like your designs, I’m not obsessed.”

Abigail raised her eyebrows. “Then I have nothing to worry about.”

After Isla composed herself, she picked up her purse and left. In this matter, Abigail didn’t support

Cameron; if he didn’t value Isla’s feelings when she offered them to him so sincerely, he should let her

find someone who loved her more. If he was already giving up because of such a small obstacle, he

seemed like the type to leave without a word if Isla ever disagreed with him in the future.

In the evening, when Sean and Cameron returned, Cameron tried to avoid Abigail the moment he saw

her. “Stop avoiding me. How did things go?” she asked coldly.

“We checked out the shop lot and plan to start working on it tomorrow,” he answered immediately.

She nodded and chose not to lecture him about his relationship anymore. As someone who had made

a mistake in love, the last thing she wanted was to see another girl make a wrong decision- such as

eloping impulsively-because of a man.

The wrong choice she made was marrying Sean, and she didn’t end up happily ever after. If true

happiness were solely based on love at first sight, there wouldn’t be so many divorced couples in the

world. She couldn’t help but empathize with Isla when she heard Cameron’s earlier words.

“Are we eating out?” Sean asked Abigail.

“Sure.” Rising from her seat, Abigail glanced at Cameron and casually said, “Go wherever you want,

but Sean and I are going out alone.”

Upon hearing that, Cameron knew that something was going on between them. He wondered if they

had reconciled. His mind raced with various speculations. Meanwhile, Abigail had already left with

Sean, sighing once they stepped outside.

“Why are you concerned about someone else’s relationship? Don’t worry about him. If, like me, he

regrets it after she’s gone, then I won’t spare him the sarcasm,” Sean said with a laugh, putting his arm

around Abigail.
