From His Invisible Wife to the World's Icon novel Chapter 102

As Lydia stumbled out of the Sutton mansion, she heard Frederick say to Cecilia, "Mrs. Sutton, this is my fault for not keeping my wife in line. I'm sorry for the scare."

Realizing that he always saw himself as her master, constantly dictating her life and fate, made her feel utterly pathetic.

Back in her car, she quickly wiped the blood from her forehead and changed into clean clothes from the backseat. She scrolled through her contacts and called Daniel, but no one answered. When she drove to his law firm, his secretary informed her that he was out of town on a business trip and wasn't sure when he'd return. She had no choice but to contact other lawyers.

She called a few. The moment they heard she was Mrs. Foster calling about a divorce, they hung up immediately.

"Mr. Wade, it's Lydia... Can we meet?"

"I have a case I was hoping you could take."

This was the lawyer who had helped Madeline divorce Arthur years ago. He was old now, but she was out of options and could only turn to him.

"Lydia?" Quentin Wade recognized her voice, sounding incredibly kind. "Of course."

"Then I'll wait for you at the coffee shop downstairs from your firm."

Once he agreed, she felt a wave of relief and drove to the designated cafe.

Lydia walked in, booked a private booth, and texted the booth number to Quentin.

She organized the documents she had prepared.

Daniel had previously investigated the details of the assets under Frederick's name. Although the list wasn't exhaustive, it was more than enough.

She intended to use the equal division of their marital assets to force Frederick into a quick divorce.

Time ticked by.

She drank two cups of coffee.

Watching the busy traffic outside the window and the intermittent spring rain, she began to feel anxious.

The door finally pushed open.

"Mr. Wade..." Lydia stood up gladly, but her voice caught in her throat when she saw Arthur standing there in a pristine white suit.
