Odell’s attention perked up, “Go on.”
Cliff began an elaborate brief, “The night the missus fell into the lake, she was admitted into this
hospital. The doctor who operated on her was the best doctor employed in the hospital According to
the words of the doctor’s assistant, the missus was indeed in critical condition when she was brought
there. However, the injury in her leg was severe but not fatal. She had sustained major injuries all over
her body because of the altitude that she fell from, which had also led to the miscarriage. They say that
if she had been brought to the hospital even a moment later, she might very well have died.”
The room was filled with a deathly silence
There was such a terrible look on Odell’s face that anyone would be too intimidated to look at him.
Cliff barely dared to look at his face. He lowered his head and continued, “They don’t know the name of
the person who sent the missus to the hospital, they could only remember that it was a very handsome
young man. After the missus was no longer in critical condition, he took her and transferred her to
another hospital overnight. They left Westchester and went to a very reputable private hospital in
Glanchester”

Glanchester!”
“Yes!”
Cliff hurriedly walked out Odell’s office was filled with silence yet again. He soberly shut his eyes, as
every word that Cliff had uttered in his report continued to play in his inind. Grave injuries, broken leg,
miscarriage, had nearly lost her life It was no wonder that she hated him so much that she even wanted
to see him dead. If them getting divorced could quell even a tiny ounce of her anger and resentment,
then so be it.
After having lunch, Sylvia arrived at the entrance of City Hall close to 2 p.m. with the divorce settlement
agreement and relevant documents in hand.
She texted Odell, “i’m here, what time are you coming?” Shortly after, her phone rang. She quickly
answered the call and immediately heard his voice through the phone, “I’m right behind you”
Sylvia turned around immediately. He was standing less than iwo ineters behind her. He was wearing a
suit as usual and stood tall
ds a totem pole
His charming looks drew the attention of several women who happened to be passing by and caused
them to fawn over him
Pursing her lips, Sylvia asked, “Did you bring all your documents?”
“Yeah.” He looked at her and asked, “Has the divorce settlement agreement been finalized)”
“Yeah” Sylvia said and took out the three printed copies of the divorce settlement agreement from her
bag and handed them to him
Odell took it in his hands and quickly slipped through them.
He went through all three copies of the divorce settlement agreement
Sylvia asked, “Is everything alright?”
* Yeah.”
“Then let’s go in”
With that, Sylvid walked towards the entrance of City Hall
Odell frowned and went after her
The process was rather elaborate First, they had to head to the counter for divorce applications, then
hand over the documents and the signed divorce settlement agreement to the start. After that, they had
to wait for the staff to review the documents
The person at the counter was a middle-aged lady
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSylvia and Odell had only just sat down when they felt the lady’s eyes sizing them up rapidly
She did not seem to be in any rush to review the documents, but instead asked them with an enquiring
smile, “Are you two getting divorced willingly?”
Sylvia had already expected to hear questions along these lines. These veiled attempts at persuading
them to not go through with the divorce were the same as when they had gone through their first
divorce. She remeinbered how the staff had also tried to dissuade them from going through it.
However, Odell had been very adamant about going through with it so she had stayed silent.
Since this was not her first time going through a divorce, she stated calmly, “We know what we’re
doing.”
The clerk turned to Odell.
Odell was staring at Sylvia, he observed her indifferent expression and mumbled, “Yeah,”
The clerk suddenly commented with a flash in her eyes, “Oh, it looks like you guys were divorced once
and then remarried again What happened this time that made you want to go through the hassle of
getting divorced again?”
“Nothing inuch” Sylvia was tired of these idle talks and stated nonchalantly, “The first divorce was la
ause he cheated on me. It’s the same this time” 1
wirl,” ”
The smile on the clerk’s face was instantly wiped away. She darted a cross look at Odell and muttered,
“You look like a fine man, why couldn’t you just keep it in your pants?”
