Sorry Too Late (by J.J. Twelve) novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 The Final Step

He was unbelievable. Even on the very day of the divorce, he was still pretending? Did he even understand what a life-saving drug meant?

The two women looked at Evan as if he were a clown.

“You-”

Anya was about to expose him, but Hazel raised her hand and cut her off.

“There’s no point talking anymore. The courthouse is already open. If you don’t want Mr. Solomon to settle the scores with you, then hurry up and apologize to us. And promise that whenever Zeke needs a blood transfusion, you will provide it without refusing! Only then will I cancel the divorce. This is your only chance.”

The morning sun had just risen. Hazel stood at the entrance of the courthouse, ordering Evan around

with an arrogant air.

Her message was clear. Once she stepped through those courthouse doors, everything would be too

late.

“An apology isn’t enough!” Roxanne and Anya said together. “You also need to grovel! Show us your

sincerity!”

What the three heiresses wanted now was absolute obedience. A mere tool didn’t need its own thoughts.

To them, Evan had only two paths before him-either become a living blood bank for Zeke, or die at

Gabriel’s hands.

Hazel noticed that besides the girls in wedding gowns and the powerful figures around Sean, there were also several suspicious people lurking nearby.

They were all Gabriel’s men.

If Gabriel planned to settle scores after the divorce, then of course his people would be watching the

entire process.

“You sure talk a lot… The fact that I even showed up to see you is already the biggest sign of sincerity you’re getting from me.” Evan grew impatient. “Let’s get this over with. Stop wasting time.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Evan walked inside first.

Hazel and the others froze, their eyes widening in shock.

Not only did Evan show no intention of yielding, but he even looked eager.

But how was that possible? No one would believe it. Divorce meant judgment. It meant death. Who wouldn’t be afraid?

Snapping back to her senses, Hazel immediately shouted, “Evan, stop right there! If you dare take

another step inside, I’ll-”

Evan had already stepped fully into the courthouse.

He walked up to a clerk inside and said, “Hello. I’m here to file for a divorce.”

Hazel’s voice died in her throat. It felt as if a thunderbolt had struck her head.

The clerk clearly recognized Evan. She didn’t bother asking the usual questions like whether he had thought it through.

Instead, she glanced curiously toward the entrance and chuckled with gossiping interest.

“Sir, today’s Valentine’s Day. There are so many beautiful women outside wearing wedding dresses. They’re obviously here to get married. But you chose this day to get divorced…”

“I don’t know. I don’t care. Just process the divorce for me. Quickly,” Evan replied vaguely.

When he had first seen all the women in wedding dresses along the road, his first thought had been that

many couples were getting married today.

But the closer he got to the courthouse, the more brides he saw.

That was when a faint suspicion began forming in his mind-they were here for him.

“Evan, are you crazy? Do you really want this divorce? Do you have a death wish?”

At that moment, Hazel stormed inside, furious.

Evan could no longer be bothered with her. He simply handed over the agreement, already stamped with his fingerprint.

“You!”

That single gesture only made Hazel burn with even more anger.

She stared into Evan’s calm eyes and could clearly tell that he truly wanted the divorce.

Her eyes instantly reddened. Along with her anger, there seemed to be something else hidden in her

gaze.

Finally, she asked one last time, “Evan… have you really thought this through? Once the divorce is finalized, there’s no turning back.”

When Evan nodded calmly, Hazel felt her nose sting. She took a deep breath.

Her voice shook as she said, “Fine… Just don’t regret it.”

She picked up the pen, but it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

It was only her signature. Yet it felt as though it would drain every ounce of strength from her body.

Watching Hazel sign her name, Evan let out a long breath.

And that breath seemed to carry countless silent roars-so much emotion that silence spoke louder than words.

“The divorce is done… I’m free.”
