CHRISTY:

Beatrice’s strength left her and fell onto the bed. “Do you think marriage is not a serious matter? Do you think we could easily divorce our husband just because we already got tired of our significant others?"

"I do understand where you are coming from, Beatrice. I understand you're pressured because of family tradition, but Everette and I have already talked about this. I will ask him to sign the divorce papers when we disembark."

"Did you ask Everette if he is fine with it?"

"He was not fine." he was not because of his inheritance and being disowned by his family. Nothing more. If only he was not fine because he liked me, maybe...just maybe I won't force this divorce. I loved my husband with all my heart, but what could I do if he could not return my feelings? Letting go was the best thing to do. "He will be fine since he loved Eden. Eden will help him."

"You're kidding."

"I am not, Beatrice. You can ask your brother about it."

"Poor Everette."

Of course, sympathy would be
