Chapter 1
It was nighttime at Sovereign Heights of Jiverton.
Two people sat facing each other in the spacious and bright living room. A divorce agreement lay between them. The man, wearing a well-pressed suit, had perfect facial features and an indifferent expression. His whole body exuded a strong sense of oppression.
His cold eyes fell on the silent girl opposite him, and his gaze was as dark as the midnight outside.
“We’ll get a divorce on Monday. Besides the compensation in the divorce agreement, you can ask for anything else you need,” Joshua Neal stated firmly, and his words were cold and his voice was low.
“Why so sudden?” Cynthia Yates’ voice was cold.
Joshua’s response was simple. “Jayleen is back.”
Cynthia knew who Jayleen was. After a short silence, she agreed, “Okay.”
Joshua paused, seemingly not expecting her to agree so readily.
Cynthia opened the divorce agreement, saw the densely packed words, and remembered her past with Joshua.
They had met at Jiverton’s Evening Club two years ago. Both of them were heartbroken. But luckily, they found solace in each other’s company over two glasses of wine. Their encounter was brief, without a one-night stand, and they parted ways after their drinks.
Three days later, Joshua showed up at her door with his personal assistant Mr. Cheyne to propose marriage.
She said yes.
