Sir Your Wife Already Signed the Divorce Paper
Chapter 13: Shame
The deafening silence filled the room. However, halfway through it, Troy found his voice to speak, âIâm sorry, Iâm just worried.â
âSorry,â the word echoed in her mind. âAh.â
They were married for three years; that was all she ever receivedâa simple word, âSorry.â
âIâm sorry. I will compensate you whatever you want but donât involve Sarah. She doesnât know about our marriage, so donât do anything to her.â
Hearing that made Imogen smile bitterly.
This was Troy, her husband. He was apologizing, but there was a threat if she considered putting Sarah in danger.
It was all tiring, so instead of defending herself, she said, âItâs up to you.â
After that conversation, she strode out of his office. It could be seen in her expression how disheartened she was.
All that Troy could do was look at Imogenâs vanishing figure. He squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes darkened.
Suddenly, his phone rang. Troy glanced at his phone screen and answered the call.
âWe are trending again. Iâm sorry, Troy, it wonât happen again,â Sarahâs voice came from the other side of the line.
There was no response from him, so Sarah called his name again. That was when Troy regained his composure. He blinked before answering, âItâs okay. Iâve already dealt with it, and it wonât impact you.â
âReally? Thank you, Troy. Thatâs nice of you.â
When Sarah hung up the call, Ylah, who was with her, couldnât help but sigh.
âGood,â she started. âBut what if Imogen reveals their marriage to the public? What will you do?â Sarah glanced at the blackened screen of her phone and said confidently, âShe wonât.â
Womenâs intuition was the most accurate. It was the same reason she realized Imogen liked Troy three years ago.
The woman hid her feelings well, but Sarah still knew about it. So to remain on Troyâs side, she was sure Imogen would not act recklessly.
Recently, he was always lost in his thoughts whenever she was out with Troy. That was when she realized she had to push him to divorce his wife as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble. Returning to the office, Imogen took the divorce papers from the folder and placed them on her table. She was in a daze for a long time before; finally, she signed her name one stroke at a time. Troyâs heart was not with her; why should she force him to love her? It was better to end the marriage that way. And from then on, they were no longer husband and wife in her mind. After settling what had to be fixed, she called in her assistant and declared, âSend this document to Mr. Marshallâs office.â
As expected, the assistant did what she ordered. On his way there, holding the document, he met Mr. Jordan at the entrance of the CEOâs office. âMr. Jordan, this is the document Director Forbes wants to give Mr. Marshall. Could you please send it to him?â
As he held onto the document, he reported things to his boss, and when it was done, he handed

the paper. âSir, Director Forbes wanted to give this to you.â
Troy was baffled, and his eyebrows furrowed. âWhat document is it?â
âShe didnât say anything. I think youâll know after reading it, Sir,â he muttered.
Sighing, Troy waved his hand, and Mr. Jordan left the office. When left alone, he opened the folder and saw the prominent characters: the divorce agreement.
Shocked, his eyes widened, and he quickly flipped to the last page. There he saw Imogenâs
signature, neat and precise.
Troy had to admit that Imogenâs signature was as beautiful as the companyâs employees said. Even her signature in a divorce agreement fell within expectations.
Troy stared at the papers for a long time before closing the folder and leaning against the back of the chair, his brows still creased.
On the other side, Imogen received a phone call from someone close to her heart.
âImogen, itâs me.â
âGrandma! Why did you call?â She tried to make her voice sound
âI havenât seen you for a long time. Grandma missed you. Have lunch with me today, okay? Iâll cook your favorite dish!â The older woman exclaimed.
âSure, Grandma, letâs see each other later.â Imogen knew that the two older people must also have heard about the issues circulating online and on the news, the reason why they asked for her
presence.
âRemember to call Troy. We donât care if heâs busy. If he dares not to come, Iâll beat him up.â
âYes, yes,
donât worry, Grandma.â
It seemed that the older woman also called her soonâtoâbe exâhusband. Because as soon as she finished work, she received a message.
From: Troy
[Are you finished? Come to the parking area if youâre done.]
She replied, âFine.â
As said, Imogen went to the parking area and spotted his car there. She quickly opened the car door and slipped in.
When the engine started, there was nothing but silence between them. It was already halfway when Troy glanced at her and decided to talk, âGrandma asked us to return; it must be because of the news. If nothing unexpected happens, I will find a chance to bring up the divorce with them.â
Imogenâs heart ached as she nodded softly, silently watching the street flickering past outside the car window.
He was so eager and had been waiting for this day for a long time.
