Half an hour later, Charlotte Green, who was leaning against the door heartbroken, heard the voice of Sophia Young approaching. She then pulled herself together, opened the door, and stepped out to face what was coming.
Sophia Young looked at her, her eyes full of puzzlement.
Why had a perfectly good Christmas Eve come to this, to divorce?
"Mrs. Cliff, please take a look at this divorce agreement. If there is no issue, you may sign," said the lawyer brought by Sophia Young, who naturally would not be subpar, demonstrating both professional attitude and efficiency.
Charlotte glanced at Kevin Cliff and noticed he sat there, as cold as ice, expressionless, seemingly just wanting to get this over with and leave.
She sighed deeply in her heart, walked over without even glancing at the terms of the agreement, took the pen from the lawyer, and flipped to the signature page at the end.
She knew that even though she was so wretched, so... vile, in his eyes, he would never con her.
