In the backseat, Clarence didn’t even open his eyes as his cold voice came, “Throw that to the dogs.”
Nathan reminded him after a moment of silence, “Mr. Conrad, dogs can’t eat chocolate.”
“…”
In the Civil Affairs Bureau, Stella had calculated all the possible misgivings and the traffic and in order not to be late, she arrived at the entrance an hour before the stipulated time.
Compared to the section where pairs of sweet couples finally became husband and wife, it was much more desolate in the divorce section here. A few divorcees here had a look of numbness and resentment on their faces, and even the workers working here had a kind of indifference to his expression.
At this sight of this, Stella tried to force a rigid smile on her face. She never had any grudge against Clarence. They didn’t start their marriage in a good ambience, so she hoped that she didn’t have to be consumed with too much hatred as if the whole word was her enemy while she was going through this divorce.
At the thought of this, the smile on her face grew wider.
She wanted to be the happiest divorcee today.
Clarence happened to arrive at this moment and saw her face. He stopped in his tracks and he silently watched her from a far.
After some unknown period of time, the smile on her face eventually became unnatural. She took a look at the time and cursed softly, “This bastard, how can he be late for a divorce? Even the president of the country isn’t as busy as him.”
Clarence’s temples jumped slightly upon hearing that. With his lips pressed into an indifferent line, he strode towards her.
Stella heard the sounds of footsteps and when she saw him, her eyes seemed to light up, “Mr. Conrad, you’re here.”
Clarence mumbled a response and asked, “Have you been waiting for a long time?”
“Not at all, I am actually touched by your investment of time in this divorce matter, seeing how busy you can be. I can wait as long as it takes.”
Seeing that she was putting on such a hypocritical face, Clarence couldn’t help snorting.
It was a waste that she didn’t dabble in the show business world.
They sat down on a window for divorce registration, and Clarence swept his gaze over Stella who was signing her name. He suddenly tightened his grip on the pen when he asked without any warning, “Stella, I will give you one last chance. Is it true that you are really pregnant?”
Stella froze for a second before looking up to meet his eyes. A smile formed on her face, “Didn’t I show you my pregnancy report not long ago?”
Under the glow of sunlight, her smile was charming and dazzling.
Clarence felt that he couldn’t discern the authenticity of her smile at that moment.
His voice gradually became cold, “Three years ago, you gave me the same thing. I trusted you at that time.”
Stella looked a little astonished and the smile on her face gradually faded. She didn’t refute him as she replied, “Didn’t you make sure to avoid pregnancy every time we do that?”
It was precisely because of this that he couldn’t tolerate her using him and lying to him time and again.
If she could come clean with him and tell him that the pregnancy was a lie, he would have been able to forgive her.
However, she didn’t seem like she would change her ways. She continued to make the same mistakes over and over again.
Clarence retrieved his gaze and signed his name without hesitation.
After exiting the Civil Affairs Bureau, Stella carefully kept her divorce certificate and with her palms clasped together, she said with a wide grin, “Mr. Conrad, happy divorcing.”
