“But two years on, replaying the moment in my head and knowing what I now knew, I realised I’d seen the truth that day. Nick hadn’t wanted a family, not one that included me, anyway. He’d just wanted a baby.”
― Jess Ryder, The Ex-Wife

“I told her that Nick had changed the locks on the house and cancelled all my cards. ‘He’s done what?! You’re kidding me.’ Her voice hit the high notes. ‘Utter shit, utter, utter shit.

― Jess Ryder, The Ex-Wife
