Chapter 249 A Sky Finally Open

It was like a trained eagle breaking free and soaring into the sky. Like a fierce tiger slipping its collar and returning to the open plains.

From this moment on, the sea was wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky high enough for birds to fly.

The three heiresses could no longer bind him. They would never again dictate his life. Perhaps they would never even appear in it again.

That chapter was closed.

Holding the divorce certificate, Evan let out a long breath of relief.

For the first time in a very long while, a genuine smile appeared on his face.

There were countless things he wanted to say. But more than anything else, his heart was filled with anticipation for the future.

He would never have to see those three irritating faces again. He would never have to listen to their arrogant, ridiculous words. And he would certainly never again have to worry about someone forcing

blood out of him.

It felt incredible.

Evan even thought that, without the three heiresses in his life, both his mood and his days would finally

begin to improve.

His cultivation would probably advance at rocket speed.

And with beauties like Sylvie and Estelle by his side? Now that was living.

The past three years had been a complete waste of life.

Still, Evan didn’t show too much joy. After all, Hazel stood nearby with reddened eyes, staring at him with a gaze filled with fury and a hint of sorrow and reluctance. Her emotions were a tangled mess.

As for Roxanne and Anya, they were completely stunned.

They stood there with their mouths open, shock written all over their faces, as if they had just seen a ghost.

It was unbelievable.

Evan had really divorced Hazel? And he had been the one to initiate it?

Hazel had clearly been giving him chances the whole time. She obviously didn’t want the divorce.

But he hadn’t hesitated for even a second. There was no sign of regret, either.

They were in disbelief.

Had he even thought about what would happen to him after the divorce? How would he survive Cain’s

wrath?

The chain reaction caused by this divorce was enormous. Questions sprouted in Roxanne and Anya’s

minds.

Yet when they imagined a future without Evan, they suddenly found it difficult to accept.

This had nothing to do with Zeke. Whether Zeke existed or not, they had always believed Evan would

remain by their side.

They had once thought that would never change. And yet now, that connection had been severed.

A heavy wave of loss surged over them, almost swallowing them whole.

If they had to describe the feeling in one word, it would be suffocating. A crushing, airless suffocation.

And Hazel felt it most of all.

It was as if she had fallen into the depths of the ocean, surrounded by endless cold and silence.

Like someone drowning, she struggled desperately. But the more she struggled, the deeper she sank.

Her heart kept sinking with her. She could barely breathe, as if something precious had just been ripped out of her life. The pain was impossible to put into words.

It hurt. It hurt so much.

Hazel had never felt this miserable before.

“Ms. Solberg, thank you for keeping your word. From now on, let’s not see each other again.” Evan looked at Hazel and spoke calmly.

Perhaps because the divorce was finalized, his attitude toward the three heiresses was no longer as

cold as before.

After all, the marriage was over. Their relationship had ended. Whatever grievances existed between

them were now finished too.

If they ever met again, they would only be strangers.

But that calm distance shattered the three heiresses even more. In some ways, it would have been easier to accept his old coldness.

At that moment, Hazel felt as if her heart had burst open, pain and blood spilling everywhere.

She couldn’t bear it. Neither could Roxanne nor Anya.

“You’ve lost your mind… Evan Solberg, you’ve completely lost your mind!”

“You won’t survive a single day without us!”

Roxanne and Anya shouted at him almost hysterically.

Evan didn’t care at all. He simply smiled faintly.

“Ms. Leighton, Ms. Golden, my affairs are none of your concern. And don’t worry-I have no interest in marrying either of you. On the contrary, I’m cutting ties with you as well. I’ll repay the Leighton family’s kindness soon enough.”

He paused briefly before adding one last thing.

“And one more thing-stop calling me Evan Solberg. I stopped carrying the Solberg name a long time ago.

With that casual remark, Evan turned and walked away.
