Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 321
âSh*t!â Abellyn felt like a mouse encountering a cat upon seeing the lawyer
and even considered hiding for a moment.
Jayden Castro is a renowned lawyer in the industry. If heâs representing Ryder
in the lawsuit, heâll surely win. By then, all my crimes will be exposed, and the
whole city will know! What should I do?
However, before she could hide, she overheard Jaydenâs conversation with
Emmanuel. âMr. Lowe, Ms. Quillen asked me to discuss the divorce matters
with you!â
What? A divorce? Abellyn grinned with a hint of schadenfreude after
recovering from the shock.
She had always thought that Emmanuel was reaching for the stars by
marrying Mackenzie.
It wasnât that Emmanuel wasnât goodâlooking, but why should a penniless
guy like him get to marry a rich and beautiful woman like Mackenzie? Alas,
the mismatched marriage had ultimately fallen apart. However, she didnât
expect it to end in less than two months!
Emmanuel was also taken aback. He was evidently upset, but he didnât react
too intensely. He only nodded with a touch of sadness.
âHere, take a look at this document. If there are no objections, we will proceed
accordingly,â said Jayden as he handed the divorce agreement to
Emmanuel, who felt hurt.
Though he knew from the getâgo that this marriage was just a show to
deceive their families and it would eventually end, he still had a hard time
taking it all in when he looked at the legal document. In fact, his heart
twinged.
However, thinking about how coldâhearted Mackenzie could be, he also felt
angry. It was one thing for a woman to have a temper, but Mackenzie took it
too far. She unilaterally insisted on divorcing without any discussion, showing
a lack of respect for him.
Fine, if she wants a divorce, then weâll get a divorce! At that, Emmanuel said
to the lawyer, âI agree to the divorce, Mr. Castro, but I wonât sign this
agreement.â
Jayden seemed to have seen it coming, and he adjusted his glasses before
smiling and asking, âFeel free to name further conditions, Mr. Lowe. I will relay
them to Ms. Quillen.â
Abellyn, who was watching from behind, sneered disdainfully. Hmph, so
much for being honest and benign. That Emmanuelâs also nothing but a toy
boy! Heâs even more shameless than me, all hypocritical and pretentious! He
only married Mackenzie for her money, didnât he? Heâs certainly dissatisfied
with the divorce settlement like me and wants to demand more!
âPlease tell Ms. Quillen that I donât want anything from her. Since she has
decided to divorce, Iâll simply sign the papers!â Emmanuel said calmly,
shocking Abellyn.
Whatâs going on? Is Emmanuel not a toy boy? Didnât he marry Mackenzie for
her money? Did he purely desire her beauty?
Jayden, too, was stumped, taking quite a moment before coming to himself.
âMs. Quillen willingly gave you the house and the car, Mr. Lowe, which
together are worth several million. Are you really not interested?â
âI donât want them. Since weâre getting a divorce, thatâll make her and I
strangers, and I wonât take things from a stranger!â Emmanuel said, then
turned to leave.
