Evelyn stood in place, the sunlight falling on her, elongating her shadow, making her appear particularly lonely and desolate.
She kept looking ahead on the road, hoping that Caden Lockwood would return.
However, she stood for a long, long ti, until the last glimr of hope in her eyes vanished completely, and Caden Lockwood still hadn’t returned.
The sunlight moved away from her, shadows covering her, as if pushing her into an endless abyss.
She closed her eyes for a mont and turned around, her mind filled with the image of Caden Lockwood resolutely throwing away the ring.
The ring was tossed from the window, and it should have fallen on the lawn at the back of the villa.
Tightening her fist, she limped toward the lawn, bent over, and searched ticulously, not missing a single corner.
She had only one belief in her heart: she must find the rings!
Even though she didn’t even understand the purpose of her actions...
At this mont, Caden Lockwood drove to the company, furiously, his expression as fierce as a demon, pushed open the office door, and called Sean Ashton inside.
"Boss?" Sean Ashton secretly dreaded.
Could it be that the boss didn’t have a good conversation with the madam at ho?
Why does it feel like the boss is even angrier than before?
"Draft the divorce agreent." Caden Lockwood bit out the words.
"Boss!" Sean Ashton panicked, "Please calm down, you and madam finally..."
Caden Lockwood raised an eyebrow, glaring at Sean Ashton, angrily said, "Do I need to say it a second ti?"
Sean Ashton had no choice but to keep quiet.
When Caden Lockwood was angry, what anyone said was to no avail.
Turning around, Sean Ashton seed to rember sothing and suddenly said, "A local express package just arrived, I’ve put it on your desk."
He only hoped to use so work-related matter to lower Caden Lockwood’s anger temporarily.
After all, impulsivity is the devil!
Once the divorce really goes through, the boss will undoubtedly be the most disappointed one!
Thinking this, Sean Ashton sighed and walked out of the office, closing the door carefully.
Looking at the express package in hand, Caden Lockwood only felt irritable, needing to find sothing to divert his attention, so he opened it.
What ca into view was a divorce agreent.
The terms were simple, just seeking divorce, wanting nothing, already signed with Evelyn Morgan’s na.
She wrote her na neatly at the signature line, as if he could see her eager smile.
Great!
Wonderful!
He thought she was just sulking, but unexpectedly, she had even prepared the divorce agreent!
Freedom?
Once free, he feared himself!
Picking up the pen, Caden Lockwood directly started writing his signature at the required spot.
Just having written the "Caden" character, he tossed the pen aside, grabbed the divorce agreent, without a word, tearing it to shreds.
Divorce?
If... he refused?
Why should he fulfill her wish!
His eyes filled with a deep rage, he looked out the window, the sun blazing as if it would set the whole world on fire.
His eyes slightly narrowed, the cold gleam leaking out icy and piercing, decisively surrounding him with power.
...
Evelyn had been searching for the ring on the lawn for a long ti, oddly enough, even though the lawn was only this big, she just couldn’t find it.
Could it be that so mouse or sothing happened by and bit them away?
"Young Madam, what exactly did you lose? Let help you look!" Aunt May, who just got ho, was full of urgency, "Is your leg uncomfortable? Please go inside and rest for a mont!"
Evelyn shook her head, mumbling, "I must find it!"
"Find what?" Aunt May was anxious, "Tell , and we can look together!"
"It’s..."
The words ca to her lips, but Evelyn swallowed them back.
How could she admit she was looking for a ring?
She and Caden Lockwood had both signed the divorce agreent.
He must have already had the secretary handle the divorce procedures!
She didn’t even know what she was clinging to.
Even if she found the ring, then what?
Wouldn’t she and he still be divorced?
Right now, what she should do most is leave here with Aunt May imdiately.
"Aunt May." Evelyn’s voice choked in her throat, "I... I’m divorced. Let’s pack up and leave!"
