The next day.
The weather was gloomy, and a cold wind blew relentlessly, cutting like a knife.
Chloe Reed took her documents and arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. As she looked up, she saw a black Rolls-Royce Phantom pull over and stop by the roadside.
The car door opened, and a tall, slender male figure stepped out.
His eyes held a frosty glint, and he exuded a sharp, intimidating aura. His dark, almond-shaped eyes fixed on her, filled with an emotion she couldn’t decipher.
Chloe Reed glanced at him once before turning to walk inside.
Walker Grant strode after her, his gaze fixed on her slender back. Her spine was ramrod straight.
After taking a number, the two of them waited in the seating area.
It seemed they had picked a bad day; the place was crowded with people getting divorced.
Both of them were silent.
Chloe Reed kept her eyes lowered, her heart pounding in her throat. Until the very last moment, she wouldn’t be able to relax.
"Are you content with this?"
Just then, the man’s deep, magnetic voice sounded from beside her.
Chloe Reed’s long lashes trembled. "I’d be even more discontent if we didn’t divorce."
Walker Grant looked at her. "You chose to force my hand like this. Have you ever considered my feelings?"
Chloe Reed turned her head to look back at him. "Then let me ask you, when you were in Unistara with Sunny Reed for her pregnancy check-up, did you consider my feelings? When you chose to get a vasectomy for Noah Grant’s sake, did you consider my feelings?"
"It wasn’t for someone else!" Walker Grant’s tone darkened.
"Are you trying to say it was for me?" Chloe Reed looked at him, amused. "Then why didn’t you do it sooner? Why did you do it right after Noah Grant was born? You were always thinking of him, thinking of the Grant family. When was I ever part of your considerations?"
She spoke these words with an almost placid calm. She had thought her heart would ache, but after a night of reflection, she realized she had just gone numb.
’This should have ended long ago.’
