In the M State City Hall.
Sophia hesitated when she was handling the cancellation process. She even slowly pulled out her ID, trying to take as much time as possible.
The lawyer Theo brought stepped forward to negotiate with the staff, explained the specific situation, and the process went smoothly according to procedures.
Finally, the staff took back their marriage certificates and destroyed them, finally ending this non-
substantial relationship.
Theo was pushed away from the M State City Hall by Collin, ready to get in the car sent by the Blanchet Corporation to pick them up and fly back home directly from the airport.
Sophia hastily chased him out. âTheo, why are you leaving? Didnât we agree to have a meal together?â
Theo didnât care about having a meal with her. He just wanted to go back home as soon as possible, tell Ellinor that things had been resolved, and accompany her so she could peacefully wait for the birth of their child.
However, after seeing Sophiaâs earnest face, Theo was a bit annoyed, but he didnât want to break his promise.
He predicted that after this departure, he and this old friend might not see each other again. Having a farewell meal, in a sense, was like putting a perfect end to this matter, so that Thaddeus wouldnât have anything to get mad about and he wouldnât bring any trouble to his home.
So, Theo turned his head and asked Collin when the plane was taking off.
Collin looked at his watch. âMr. Blanchet, itâs eight in the morning now, so we still have three hours before our flight. If you want to have breakfast, you wonât miss the plane.â
After confirming that there was plenty of time, Theo responded indifferently and then looked at Sophia and said, âLetâs find a place nearby and grab something to eat.â
Sophia got a response, but she didnât feel relieved.
She didnât expect that Theo had already bought the ticket to go back home and planned to fly back home right after this meal. No, he didnât even plan to have this meal with her from the beginning; he just wanted to go home to be with Ellinor.
Sophia had no choice but to choose a restaurant near the M State City Hall.
After they sat down, Sophia asked him enthusiastically what he wanted to eat, just like before.
âWhatever.â
His face was expressionless, but it clearly showed extreme anxiety. Obviously, he wasnât in the mood for this meal.
Sophia had no choice but to order the same meal that she ordered for herself for him.
Then, she looked at him with concern and said, âTheo, my father said he would take responsibility for your injuries and would have the best doctor in M State treat, you. Actually, you donât have to rush back home. Your injuries are so severe. Iâm worried that you might not be able to handle the flight.â
Every wound on Theoâs body was aching, but his face was just a bit palè, He didnât look like he was in pain.
âItâs my own responsibility. From now on, we donât owe each other anything. Your father doesnât need to worry about my wounds.â
Sophia looked sad. âTheoâ¦â
Theo seemed to have seen through her heart, interrupted her; and reminded her directly, âSophia, I believe you will find someone who truly cherishes you, but that person will definitely not be me.â
