Luke Huxley scoffed. Before Dexie could respond, he snatched her phone and dialed a number.
As soon as the call was answered, he demanded in a firm voice, "Bring me the divorce agreement."
The person on the other end of the call seemed taken aback. "Divorce agreement?"
"What part of my words do you not understand?"
Luke Huxley's expression was grim, clarifying that defying him would lead to trouble.
The other party quickly agreed, and Luke Huxley ended the call. Turning back to Dexie, "Are you happy now?" he asked.
Unfazed by his actions, Dexie replied,"Yes, I am thrilled. Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Dawson," nodding calmly.
She gazed at his stoic face with bloodshot eyes, a mix of emotions swirling within her. Soon after, Warry arrived with th
At that moment, the black Maybach slowly pulled out of the hospital. Warry, who was driving, was the first to spot Dexie's trembling figure. Subconsciously, he pressed the brake and slowed down.He then turned to Luke Huxley, who was in the back seat, "Mr. Dawson, that's Mrs. Dawson over there. Should we... pick her up?"Luke Huxley, with deep and unfathomable eyes, glanced through the windshield at the frail woman on the side of the road. After a moment of hesitation, he decisively responded, "No!""You're so cold towards her. Maybe that's why she divorced you. It's probably best for her to stay away from you."Warry thought to himself."She seems fine then," he replied.Although he agreed verbally, he maintained a slow speed as they approached Dexie. However, he did not hear Luke Huxley instruct him to stop."Why do you have to hold on to your pride?" he thought, inwa
“Mr. Dawson, why are you here?"Roy looked at Luke Huxley and raised an eyebrow. He handed the umbrella to Dexie and asked her to hold it. Then he took off his pink suit and draped it over her, right in front of Luke Huxley.It was unclear if Dexie did it intentionally to provoke him. She thought to herself, "Oh, it's freezing here! Couldn't this have waited until I got in the car?"At that moment, Luke Huxley's expression worsened as he saw Dexie not objecting to what Roy was doing for her."We haven't even gone through the formalities, and now you can't even wait to meet this man?"His jaw clenched with anger, and he spoke without thinking.This made Warry feel sorry for him, thinking, "Oh, God, do you think you can win back your wife's heart with just this? Maybe you should give up and stay sing
Dexie gave Roy a sidelong glance and finished the soup in her bowl. She then got up and approached him. "Good. Undress then."Roy didn't dare to do it, thinking, "She was just joking. No need to take it seriously."In the end, the two chatted and laughed for a while. When he saw that she was not affected by her divorce, he felt completely relieved and left her apartment.After he left, she cleaned the dishes and returned to the bedroom. She didn't think about her divorce until she finished her bath.Luke Huxley finally signed the divorce agreement, which meant that her past trauma would no longer be repeated, but she still felt a little lost in her heart.That was probably because she was used to waiting and expecting Luke Huxley in both lives. Now that she no longer had him by her side, she couldn't adjust immediately.Maybe things would be okay after a wh
In the end, the two went to the Civil Affairs Office and sat in front of a counter. The staff looked at the beautiful couple in front of them and felt sorry for them. "You guys," the staff member couldn't help but start."We have thought about it well, and this is the decision we have made," Dexie interrupted, sensing what the staff member meant.Bella felt there was no need to delay the divorce any longer.The staff member remained silent, shifting their gaze to the stiff-faced, silent man next to Dexie. The staff member felt this man seemed familiar but couldn't remember who he was."Have you two decided on a divorce?" Luke Huxley opened his mouth and said, "I-""Yeah," Dexie couldn't wait to speak, cutting off Luke Huxley's words.His somber gaze fell on her face, his eyes darkening.Then, she looked at the staff member with an unfriendl
As a result, people in his hometown believed that Rodel Domino, who had left town, had worked his way to becoming a multi-millionaire and could even afford private planes. Every year, when his family came to visit, the villagers praised and flattered them. This satisfied Mdm. Domino's vanity as a rural woman who did not think she could mix with the circle of rich ladies in the capital. Although the people in her hometown were still poor, she still wanted to go every Christmas. "Dexie, are you ready? It's time we got going," Rodel said as the servants collected the luggage and went downstairs. He noticed Dexie was still sitting on the couch, engrossed in her phone, so he reminded her of the time. Through the phone screen, he casually glanced at the well-dressed upstart in front of her. "Oh, I won't go this year." She knew these people didn't want her to accompany them at all. They were afraid that she would accidentally say something that would expose the fact that Rodel received m
After the elder of the Dawson family passed away, the harmony between the two families of his first and second wives remained intact as they continued to meet for dinner on Christmas Eve.Luke Huxley's grandmother led a delicate life, dressed in a dark green evening gown with meticulously combed hair, embodying the typical temperament of a noble lady from a wealthy family.Despite her initial reluctance when her husband brought a second wife into the household, she had grown accustomed to getting along with the other lady and her children over the years. The two families had developed a strong bond and maintained a good relationship.Noticing Dexie's absence, old Mrs. Dawson inquired, "Where is Dexie? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"When Luke Huxley entered the house, his grandmother greeted him with a Christmas present and blessings, her usual reserved deme
Although Erin had always hoped for a divorce from Luke Huxley, when it finally happened, she still wished that Dexie could remain her sister-in-law.She kept unrealistically thinking that there was still hope for the two to reconcile, especially after seeing how Luke Huxley was struggling post-divorce.She didn't expect Marilyn to bring up this matter, and for a moment, a glimmer of hope sparked in her heart. Did Wen Yan agree because of Marilyn's intervention?Erin, with a bigger mouth than her grumpy and unreasonable older sister, was left speechless. Marilyn's stony gaze made Erin feel a pang of fear, causing her to lower her head and hastily consume the food in front of her, plagued by guilt."Why don't you call her yourself if you love her so much? Why should I be the one to reach out?" Marilyn's grip on her fork tightened unconsciously, despite her
Roxane exuded vitality and appeared far from someone battling an illness. However, she was clearly bold for openly challenging Dexie in this moment."You dare shove it in my face, huh?"Dexie thought.She glanced at Roxane with a slight smile and asked directly, "I've been struggling with my divorce, but you keep bringing it up. Are you intentionally rubbing salt in my wound?"The smile on Roxane's face froze suddenly. She didn't expect Dexie's directness. Seeing the hint of a smile in Dexie's eyes, she instinctively clutched her dress, fearing another verbal attack from Dexie. Unsure if Dexie was unhappy about her divorce, Roxane knew she couldn't afford to offend her.Roxane turned away and distanced herself from Dexie, her expression stiff as she explained, "That's not what I meant. I was happy you came. I shouldn't have said that. I didn't mean to upset you." "I see," Dexie replied nonch
