Chapter 38
Zane said, “Who does she think she is to refuse to sign the papers?”
Sam replied, “It’s not so much that she isn’t keen to sign. She doesn’t want to pay the hundred thousand dollars in emotional damages.”
Zane had his way to make the woman put her name on the divorce papers. Still, Granny introduced the girl to him. The only thing on his mind was to cut ties with the disgusting woman. who betrayed their marriage as soon as possible. “Fine. She doesn’t need to pay that.”
With Zane budging on the clause, Sam immediately had a new document printed to hand to Lianne. “Here you go, Ms. Simpson.”
He was a lot nicer this time.
Lianne examined the paperwork closely before picking up the pen to put down her signature. Alright. What else do you need me to do?”
Sam was in a state of disbelief that she signed the papers. “Do you know what your husband does for a living?”
Lianne replied, “What does his work have to do with me?”
Sam secretly smirked. She honestly did not know who Zane was. Sam planned to tell Lianne the truth once the divorce was finalized, so the regret would eat Lianne alive.
He put away the signed paperwork and relished in her misfortune. “Leave the rest to us. The divorce decree should be finalized in about a month. You’ll need to attend court with Mr. Hill.” Lianne understood that divorce could take time. “Alright. I’ll wait for your news.”
With Sam gone, Tyler and Sierra drew close to Lianne. “Gummy, the way you dealt with Sam was so impressive. We nearly cheered when you shut him down.”
Lianne said with a smile, “Don’t forget who I’ve been working for, day in and day out.”
Sierra grinned broadly. “I hear you become the person you’re with. I guess you owe it to Zane.” Tyler uttered, “Come on. Let’s dine out.”
The trio went to a restaurant in high spirits, not at all put down by the divorce.
With the signed document in hand, Sam rushed to Zane’s residence.
As it was the weekend, Zane stayed at the Rainforest Estate in Mangrove Bay, which was quite a distance from Lianne’s residence. As a result, Sam was ten minutes past the deadline given by Zane.
Still, seeing that Sam completed the task, Zane let the matter slide.
Sam clung to Zane, babbling on about what happened. “Your wife is a stunner, Zane. It’s a pity some other man got her, but I can tell she’s quite a character, My questioning didn’t faze her.”
Paying him no mind, Zane stared at the signed name on the divorce papers. The handwriting was neat, unlike his assistant of the same name
