The core issue was that he realized he could no longer control her.

Madeline smiled faintly, shook her head, and suddenly asked, "Have you signed the divorce agreement?"

"What do you mean?" Lucius asked.

Hearing this, Madeline instantly understood. Lucius hadn't even looked at the documents she had left for him.

She had placed them right in front of him and explicitly told him they were important, but he had remained completely indifferent.

Later, she had brought it up again, asking him to sign it, and he hadn't cared then either.

Madeline's lips twitched into a mocking sneer. "When Lightning Interactive had that crisis, I gave you a file before I left. I emphasized several times for you to read it. That was the divorce agreement."

Lucius vaguely recalled such a document, but he had assumed it was just Madeline asking him to buy her something. He figured since he had already transferred millions of dollars to her, he didn't need to read it. She could just buy whatever she wanted. He had never expected this.

It wasn't a request for a car or a house.

"You want to divorce me?"

Lucius couldn't believe she had packed a divorce agreement inside that folder.

Madeline nodded. "Yes."

Lucius stared in disbelief. "Just because I defended Liliana at the gala, you want to divorce me?"

Madeline shook her head. "Long before that."

Lucius furrowed his brows, thinking back to the timeline of the document. She had indeed given it to him months ago. He asked, "Is it because Liliana stayed over at the house temporarily?"
