Beyond the Divorce

Without giving Trinity a chance to argue further, I issued the order for them to leave.

Although Ross seemed reluctant, he stood up with Trinity. Trinity looked at me with some reluctance, her lips moving slightly. Ross glanced at her and shook his head. They left together. I stood still, watching their departing figures.

To be honest, my feelings were complex. I should have been happy to finally meet relatives from my mother's side, but their visit seemed to come with ulterior motives, which left me feeling unsettled. After Jim escorted Trinity out and returned to the living room, he respectfully said, "Mrs. Chloe, the guests have left. You should rest early."

I faintly nodded in response.

Back in my room, I quickly freshened up and lay down on the bed. I was tired after today's events.

Ross's face and words kept replaying in my mind. I regretted being too hasty and not asking him about the brooch. Why and the Avila family suddenly appeared after so many years of neglect? But then again, it didn't matter. I didn't have the brooch, and I couldn't do anything about it.
