The mc is just enjoying sex with her, same as with Jade, it's not like he wants to marry her. But things change, and it goes from lust to a serious interest. The mc even say to Bella, "I've had the feeling he's not around anymore... Am I wrong?" Bella acknowledges he's gone. Should more be discussed? Definitely once they started dating. Unfortunately Halloween robbed us of any progression of this nature.Yes it is. A softer version of cheating if you will.
Thats one of the biggest plot holes in the story imo, woulndt you want to know if the woman you're involved with is married or wtf is happening? You wouldnt care for a one night stand but romancing Bella is different, it definitely is one of the first things you would want to know but Tremolo doesnt ask once more.
Regarding the cheating, it depends on the law of your country. Typically after one year of separation you can get a divorce any time you want. You can't remarry until you're divorced for legal reasons, but there's nothing wrong with dating or simply fucking others.
But ultimately cheating is a moral issue, not a legal one. If the husband fucks off for three years, the marriage is over. Whether it's formalised with a divorce, or Bella doesn't bother, no one would expect Bella to just sit at home and wait like a good little girl.
I'm going with James being dead and Bella is fucked up. Don't know if I'll go so far as to say she killed him.Hey man, amazing summery, you put all the points and relevant quotes in one place! Thank you!
What are your theories about the this part:
mc: "But if I had known the real reasons to her tears..."
mc: "...and to her persona..."
mc: "I wouldn't have kissed her that night."
mc: "I would have called out for help."
But another good theory is they lost a child and it fucked the marriage up.
