#Chapter 80: From Bad to Worse

[Evelyn’s POV] I’d truly hoped that coming to the market would have allowed some of the stress to disappear. I was in my happy place, after all. Unfortunately, because of all the things Wendy and I had covered, I ended up slipping into an ongoing train of thought that led me down several rabbit holes. I had no idea how long I’d been walking for—only that I had probably circled through the entire marketplace at least three times. My feet were actually beginning to hurt from the amount of aimless walking I’d been doing. I should have stopped. Hell, I should have actually taken some form of interest in the dozens of stands that were all around me. This was one of my favorite places and I felt as though I was neglecting that idea by not doing so. What was to become of Alexander and I’s relationship? The fact that we were married, I knew, wouldn’t change. However, we were getting dangerously close to being the kind of married couple that lived separate lives from each other.
