Chapter 140 Divorced

“Sweetie, do you know how reluctant I am? Do you know how much I want to be a deserter? I don’t want to go to the Town Hall with you. You wouldn’t believe it, but I told a ridiculous lie today just to delay going to the Town Hall. Nancy, I regret it.”

Nicholas’ heart was filled with regret.

But she wouldn’t give him another chance.

If only this meeting could last forever.

If only she wouldn’t wake up, then he could stay by her side, quietly watching over her.

But, like all dreams, he eventually had to wake up.

Feeling someone beside her, Nancy opened her eyes. Upon seeing Nicholas, she immediately sat up. “Is everything taken care of?”

He wanted to say no.

However, he couldn’t continue with this lie.

“It’s almost done,” he uttered, struggling to get the words out.

Nancy rubbed her eyes, unconsciously checked the time, and realized it was a little after four in the afternoon.

It would be a little rushed, but they could make it as long as the roads were clear.

“Give me a minute.”

Nancy went to the restroom and splashed water on her face.

When she came out, Nicholas was leaning against a corner, his tall and imposing figure shrouded in a thick cloud of smoke. The embers of the cigarette he was holding glowed recklessly.

“Let’s go,” Nancy said calmly as she walked over.

Seeing her come out, Nicholas took a deep breath and tossed the cigarette into the trash.

“Okay,” he replied, his voice tinged with bitterness.

In the car, both of them were very quiet, as if each had their own thoughts.
