But here was a man who was clearly so good, and Audrey had thrown him away without a second thought. If she didn't appreciate him, then I wanted him. "Agreeing to this won't cost you anything," I said. "Besides, you've seen how I've acted these past three years. I've been a more than capable wife, haven't I? "And my family isn't full of messy, complicated problems. My parents adore their son‑in‑law, and they'll treat you just as well." Knox thought for a moment, then nodded. "All right. Once our divorces are finalized, if you still want this, I'll take full responsibility for you." Just like that? He agreed so easily?
