Goodbye, Mr. Regret

Because all that was left was disappointment...

Timothy stood up and said, "I'll go draft the divorce papers. Please wait here."

Then he told Mabel to bring in some tea and snacks.

He walked into his study, turned on his laptop, and began typing up the agreement, his movements slow and deliberate.

He decided to give Jessica half of all his assets.

Since his holdings were extensive, listing everything out took considerable time.

Halfway through, the representatives from the disability and women's advocacy groups received an urgent call—they had to leave. Before going, one of them turned to Vince and Jessica. "Mr. Lawson is being very cooperative tonight and is already preparing the divorce agreement. We have an emergency to attend to, but if anything else comes up, please contact us right away."

Jessica didn't want them to leave. She knew Timothy wasn't to be trusted.

But they really did have official duties to get to, so there was no choice but to let them go.

Not long after the advocacy staff departed, Vince's phone rang.

It was the butler.

"Sir, you need to come home right away-Grandfather just collapsed, and he's in the ambulance now!"

Vince's voice tightened with worry. "How did that happen? Was he feeling ill?"
