Chapter 58: I Didn’t Ask for a Divorce!

"Have you thought this through? If news of our divorce gets out, Nana will be heartbroken. You shouldn’t have agreed. Sometimes, refusing is the better option—it would give her peace of mind."

Alexander let out a cold sneer. "Then why didn’t you refuse?"

I met his gaze, my expression calm. "I’m not the one asking for a divorce. Why should I be the one to take the blame?"

"You want it too," he shot back. "What’s the difference?"

"I didn’t ask for a divorce," I repeated, my tone firmer this time.

A brief silence followed.

I didn’t want to argue anymore, so I looked away. "I have plans for the day, so just make sure you’re on time for the concert."

"Fine by me."

He turned his gaze toward the window, ending the conversation.

Silence filled the car once again.

I stared out the window, watching the scenery blur past, but my thoughts were anything but calm. The memory of the lake—the cold water, the suffocating panic—came rushing back.

Without realizing it, I tightened my grip on my bag.

"You don’t have to be nervous," Alexander said suddenly.

"I’m not," I replied immediately.

A pause.

"...If anything feels uncomfortable in there, just tell me," he added, his voice quieter.

I didn’t respond.

The rest of the drive passed in silence.

When we arrived at the police station, my chest tightened slightly.

The building stood tall and imposing, its atmosphere heavy and suffocating.

Alexander stepped out first, then walked around and opened the door for me.

I got out slowly.

"We’ll be quick," he said, his tone softer now.

I gave a small nod.

Inside, the air felt colder.

An officer approached us. "Mr. Blackwood, Miss Blackwood—we’ve been expecting you. This way, please."

I followed behind, my steps slower than usual.

We were led into a room.

And that’s when I saw them.

The two women from the lake.

They looked nothing like they did that night. The arrogance was gone—replaced by pale faces and uneasy, shifting eyes.

The moment they saw me, panic flashed across their expressions.

My heartbeat quickened.
