"You have something to tell me? What is it? Is there something I should know?" I inquired, feeling completely clueless.
"Yes, Duchess, there is something you ought to know because the time has come," the attorney declared, leaving me bewildered.
"What?" I questioned.
"Duchess, your marriage timeline is coming to an end!" he announced, shaking my world.
"My marriage is ending? How do you know, and why do I need to hear this from you?" I retorted, refusing to accept what he was saying.
"Because I am the attorney who facilitated the contract between both families," he disclosed.
"Both families?" I asked.
"Yes, the marriage was arranged for a specific duration, and now the fourth year is about to complete, which means you only have a few months before becoming single again," he explained.
