"How did I work hard? The proof was all there for anyone to see. Unless Mr. Warner could change things all on his own, it's pretty usual for a judge to rule in favor of the divorce. By the way, do you want to see the judgment?"
Esther eagerly looked at her and said, "Yes."
"Okay, let's go inside and wait for a bit."
Tanya and Esther headed to the waiting area and sat on the benches. Tanya handed the judgment to Esther.
She gazed at the document, shocked, and asked, "So, with this, can I really get the divorce certificate?"
"Absolutely."
Esther carefully went through the judgment page by page and examined every word, finding her unwavering determination to escape this marriage in every line.
Tanya glanced at the people in the distance. The process for getting a divorce was different from marriage registration. One side was filled with sadness, the other with joy. It was the same world but with different life experiences.
"They look so happy."
Upon hearing Tanya's remark, Esther also observed the girls in the distance. She sighed. "No matter the final result, the feeling at this moment is an unforgettable joy."
"Indeed." Tanya nodded.
Esther couldn't help but feel a bit envious of those girls with radiant smiles. They could love openly and wholeheartedly, even if it meant facing suffering or heartbreak. At that moment, they held a steadfast passion for love and happiness.
But she... She would never love someone again without reservation, as she did when she was young. Nor would she give her heart to someone only to receive a touch of pity in return.
"It's our turn," Tanya reminded Esther.
Esther turned her gaze away and walked over to the counter.
