Chapter 382

Chapter 382
The night was cool and tranquil Larissa retrieved a bottle of red wine from Kevan’s wine cabinet and poured herself a full glass. Her two cats nestled beside her, contentedly purring with closed eyes. She took a sip of wine and gently stroked the cats. If she were to share thi kind of life on the internet, countless people would probably envy her, but bitterness and loneliness still lingered within her.
The doorbell rang. It was Dylan. As he entered, he noticed the bottle of red wine on the coffee table.
“Enjoying the wine alone?” he teased.
She smiled and asked. “Care to join me?”

“Sure,” he readily agreed. She got him a glass and poured half a glass of wine. They lightly clinked glasses and finished the wine in one gulp.
“Let’s get to the point.” Larissa smiled faintly as she took a napkin and wiped away the traces of wine from her lips.
“No rush. I came here to pick something up. I can still have a lew drinks with you.”
Dylan refiled their glasses, and she didn’t decline. It was rare to have someone to talk to, especially when it made the room feel less bleak and desolate. After a few glasses, her consciousness began to blur
“Wait here for a moment. I go to Kevan’s study and get something.” he said. He rose to his feet and gradually disappeared from her sight. He returned shortly after and laid out a document in front of her..
“What–what is this?” She struggled to open her eyes as she attempted to decipher the contents of the document. However, everything appeared blurry, and she was too dizzy to read the words clearly.
Dylan replied. “This is the divorce agreement prepared in advance by Kevan. I personally drafted it and all the conditions are in your favor. Sign here if you trust me.”
He handed her a pen and pointed to a blank space on the paper, Larissa lacked the strength to ponder why Dylan suddenly brought out the divorce agreement. The moment she heard the word “divorce,” her initial reaction was that Kevan finally wanted to rid himsell of her and be with Ruby.
