Divorce Agreement 13
Darwis's POV I looked straight ahead, even though my mind was wandering somewhere. The silent and tense courtroom was now empty. The judge had banged his gavel, marking the end of my marriage to Kate. After years of being together, we finally officially divorced. It felt like a heavy weight had been lifted from my shoulders, but at the same time there was a feeling of emptiness that I couldn't explain. My steps felt heavy as I left the courthouse. Outside, the world continued to move as usual, as if nothing had changed. People walked by, cars passed by, and the sun was still shining brightly. But inside me, there is a storm brewing. I couldn't ignore the feelings of guilt and regret that gnawed at my heart. I thought about Kate, the woman I had been with for the past 2 years, and how we had gotten to this point. I walked aimlessly for some time, until finally I decided to go to Kayra's apartment. The woman who was my first love, the woman who made me make the decision to end my m
Divorce Agreement 14
Darwis's POV I walked into the meeting room with mixed feelings. On the one hand, I feel relieved that this big project will finally start. On the other hand, there is an anxiety that I can't explain. After several months of emotional turmoil, I tried to focus on my work. I walked into the meeting room with my head held high, ready to face the challenge. As I sat and waited for the team from Branch Group to arrive, my thoughts drifted back to Kate. It's been several months since our divorce, and even though I've tried to move forward with Kayra, the shadow of my past with Kate still haunts me. I don't know what I would do if I met him again. The meeting room door opened, and in came the team from the Branch Group. In front of her, was a dignified woman who seemed very familiar with the space and situation. My heart stopped beating for a moment when I realized who the woman was. Kate.She walked confidently, her cold eyes looking straight at me. I couldn't believe what I

Darwis's POV After that tense meeting, I couldn't stop thinking about Kate. Her image kept bothering me, even when I tried to focus on my work. I sat at my desk, looking at the pile of documents I had to complete. My mind tried to process everything. Kate, the woman I once knew as a simple and loving wife, now stands as a figure full of authority and strength. Finally I decided to find out what really happened. In one month it would be impossible for Kate to become president of the company if it weren't for anyone else. Or... all the assets I gave her, she immediately bought shares in the company that was collaborating with my company? Meanwhile, I have to survive to be able to keep half of the assets I have because of the wealth that Kate asked for. Really, I don't believe that she can change in one month. I sent a message to my trusted person and found out what really happened. It didn't take long, I got the information I wanted. "Kate, the only daughter of Johan Mark,

Kate's POV "Darwis? Oh, you guys are having dinner," I said, surprising both of them. They seemed very surprised and couldn't speak when they saw me coming. "Can we join you? It looks like there are no empty tables anymore," said Erlan, asking for permission to join. I looked at him surprised because this was not what I wanted. "Of course, please sit down," said Darwis awkwardly. Meanwhile, Erlan casually pulled out a chair next to Darwis and told me to sit down. Having no choice, I sat down and Erlan sat beside me. After ordering Erlan and I, the four of us fell into an awkward silence. Until Erlan started our conversation by just making small talk. Darwis looked so awkward that he stammered. But Kayra looked calm as if she didn't know what was happening. After a while, I decided to go to the toilet for a moment, take a deep breath and try to calm myself down. I know, this meeting will not go smoothly. When I opened the toilet door, Kayra was standing there, looking
Divorce Agreement 17
Kayra's POV I still feel my heart beating fast after the incident in the restaurant toilet last night. Kate, who was once just a simple and helpless girl, now appears as a figure full of authority and strength. But what was even more surprising was when I found out that she was the only daughter of the owner of the Cosmetic GM Group. How could she possibly hide that all this time? I sat on the couch in my apartment, staring out the window with mixed feelings. Darwis sat across from me, still looking confused by everything that was happening. I know that Kate isn't just coming back to show off her success. She must have other intentions. Maybe she wants to get Darwis back. "Darwis, I still can't believe what happened last night," I said in a voice that I deliberately set to sound weak. "Kate, who we used to know, actually keeps such a big secret." Darwis nodded slowly. "I'm surprised too, Kayra. But maybe there's a reason why she didn't tell us." I felt my anger burning i
Divorce Agreement 18
Kayra's POV I took a deep breath. "I know, Lia. But I have no other choice. Kate must be kept away from Darwis, and this is the only way I see." Lia looked at me sympathetically. "Okay, I'll start looking for information. Give me a few days to collect data. We have to do it very carefully." I nodded, feeling a little calmer. "Thank you, Lia. I really appreciate your help." We both stood up, and I hugged him warmly. "Thanks again, Lia. I know I can count on you." Lia smiled. "Always, Kayra. I'll contact you as soon as I get the information we need." I left the cafe with mixed feelings. I know what I'm doing is risky, but I can't let Kate destroy my relationship with Darwis. I must protect what is mine, whatever it takes. Hopefully this step can keep Kate away from Darwis forever. After meeting Lia, my mind was still full of plans and worries. I decided to go to the mall to divert my attention and relieve the stress that was hitting me. Shopping has always been the bes
Divorce Agreement 19
Darwis's POV I stood in the living room, looking at the view of the apartment full of shopping bags and Kayra's new clothes. I had mixed feelings, I felt like I had failed to keep Kayra calm and I was worried about the increasingly complicated situation. Kate's true identity continues to haunt my mind, adding to the already existing burden. I regret my anger towards Kayra earlier. She's just trying to find a way to deal with her feelings, even if her way isn't ideal. But, how can I focus on our relationship when there are so many things I have to think about? Our shaky finances, the condition of the company which depended on cooperation with Kate, and the fact that Kate was the daughter of the owner of the Cosmetic GM Group. All of this makes me feel unsteady and confused. I walked to the window, looking out at the darkening cityscape. Thoughts about Kate kept running through my head. I had to make a deal with Kate, ensuring that our relationship remained professional for t
Divorce Agreement 20
Darwis's POV There was a pause on the other end of the phone before Kate answered in a softer but firm tone, "Darwis, this isn't about jealousy. This is about reality. You have to learn to see who the person next to you really is. But that's your business, not mine." I was silent for a moment, holding myself back from exploding in anger. "Kate, you talk as if you know everything. Why do you always think you're right?" Kate laughed a little, her tone full of sarcasm. "Because I see further than what's on the surface, Darwis. I know the type of person Kayra is. She's just using you." "Utilise?" I could barely contain myself any longer. "Kayra loves me, and she has shown that in many ways. You're just jealous because I've found happiness that you couldn't give me." There was a gasp from the other side of the phone. "Maybe I can't give you the happiness you want, Darwis. But at least I'm not pretending to be someone I don't know. Kayra only wants the benefits of your relationsh
