The next morning, Anabella awoke to the sound of a firm knock at her door. She wasn't expecting anyone, and the persistent knocking made her heart race.
As she peered through the peephole, she saw a well-dressed man standing outside, his demeanor calm but determined. Her heart sank when he introduced himself as Daniel's lawyer.
"I'm here to discuss some important matters regarding the divorce," the man said, his voice steady but firm.
Anabella hesitated. She didn't feel comfortable letting an unknown beta into her home, especially under these circumstances. "I think it's best if we discuss this somewhere else," she said, trying to keep her voice polite but firm. "Perhaps at a cafe?"
The lawyer gave a slight nod. "That's fine by me. Lead the way."
