Aella said slowly and clearly, “I want a divorce. Right now.”
Tyrone grabbed her shoulders and forced her to look at him.

“Aella, you’re the one who said you loved me. You’re the one who wanted to marry me. You think you can just say you don’t want this anymore and walk away?”
Aella’s anger flared at his words.
She shoved him back and snapped, “Yeah, I was blind back then. Can’t I regret it now?”
“Regret?”
Tyrone looked away, his hands hanging awkwardly in the air.
He went quiet for a moment, then said, “You think divorce is that simple?
“Winter Group is a public company. Our marriage and divorce would make headlines. There’s too much at stake. Don’t be naïve!”
Aella looked up a bit and said with absolute certainty. “Tyrone, you’re a big deal, and you have a lot of concerns, but that didn’t stop you from having an affair with Zera. Do you really think I’m going to listen to you being all self–righteous right now?”
Tyrone stared into her cold eyes, his chest tightening.
He told her, “The thing with Zera was my fault, and I’m trying to make amends. Can you please just stop arguing with me?”
Aella was so angry she laughed, “You kept Zera and the kid even though it put your grandpa in the hospital. That’s your idea of making amends?”
Tyrone looked straight at her. “There’s a reason for this. I’ll tell you now. I only kept Zera because-”
Aella cut him off. “Save it, Tyrone. I don’t care what excuse you make. I won’t believe a word of it!”
They stared at each other.
The air is heavy and tense.
They sat there in complete silence for a long half a minute.

Tyrone changed the subject. “Aella, do you even realize Mason charges by the hour in Merican dollars? And he only takes corporate cases. Yet somehow, he makes an exception for easily. Ever wonder why?”
you so
Aella fired back right away. “Just because you think I’m worthless doesn’t mean everyone else does. Mr. Fulford’s a good father. I helped his son recover, and he’s helping me with my case as a thank–you. If you’re thinking anything else, that’s on you.”
Tyrone tried to take her hand, but she pulled away, angry.
He took a deep breath.
He spoke more calmly this time, “Even if we divorce, do you really think you’ll find someone better than me?”
Aella looked him straight in the eyes. “A woman doesn’t need a man to survive. Marriage isn’t everything.”
11:21 Fri, Oct 24 B…
Tyrone must be losing it.
Luckily, the night was calm and nothing bad happened.
The next afternoon, Aella met Mason for lunch.

She said, “Mr. Fulford, the Winters aren’t just any family. If my divorce case puts pressure on you, please don’t force yourself to take it.”
Mason replied, “Dr. Reid, if there’s still a chance you and Mr. Winter can work things out, I can drop the case and give you more time to think.”
Aella’s voice was firm. “Honestly, Mr. Fulford, I have my concerns, but I absolutely have to get this divorce.”
Mason said, “The Winter Group has a legal team that’s known to be tough, and the Winters control everything in Vleka, but Mr. Winter is the one at fault here. As long as you’ve made up your mind, Dr. Reid, don’t worry about me.”
After a night of overthinking everything, Aella felt a little relieved.
No wonder he is one of the top lawyers. He’s composed, and he leaves a little room for both sides. That’s a clever guy.
That afternoon, Aella went to Webster Manor.
Victor saw that Aella looked a little out of it. “Did Mr. Fulford agree to take on your divorce?”
Aella lit a scented candle. “You sure get news fast.”
As she turned, the match in her hand brushed against Victor’s suit pants.
Luckily, she quickly pulled it back just in time.
