Goodbye, Mr. Regret

Chapter 236

If she hadn't gotten cancer.

A month wouldn't matter. She could wait.

But her life was slipping away.

She didn't have another month to waste.

It had already been over two weeks since the diagnosis. She had just a little over five months left.

If she let things drag on a month's delay for the agreement to go into effect, another month to prepare the divorce papers, then waiting through the mandatory reflection period, another month-by the time she finally held the divorce certificate in her hand, three months would have vanished. She'd be left with just two months to herself.

Timothy's brow furrowed in irritation. Did she really want to leave him this badly? She's not just making a scene, is she?

She was mute, an orphan, used to living in this tiny apartment before they got married.

After marrying him, her life had changed completely-she was someone in this world now.
