Learning Love From Goodbye
"I've thought about it. Please draft up a divorce agreement for me, Mr. Chastain," Carina Sherwood says to her divorce attorney, Leo Chastain.
It's her fifth wedding anniversary with Aster Ducant, but Carina spends it at the lawyer's office instead because Aster is busy having fun with his secretary, Stella Winters, at home.
Carina is his wife, but she ends up being the one chased out of the house.
They have been married for five years, but Aster hasn't announced their marriage to the people at the company. At first, Carina thinks of bringing it up to him.
However, it just takes a few sentences from Aster for her to know that there's no need for that anymore.
"Stella's home alone, and the electricity at her place just went out. She has nowhere else to go. I'm asking her to come over for dinner. You're fine with that, aren't you?"
The best way Carina can think of to end the last five years of their relationship is through divorce.
