The Ex-Wife He Can’t Have novel Chapter 235

Back in her office, Jillian sat deep in thought.

She knew that Killian still resented her. It wasn't just that their past grievances hadn't been completely resolved; the main issue was that they were still legally married.

The two had merely been separated for years, meeting the conditions for an automatic divorce, but they had never officially gone through the legal process.

After much deliberation, Jillian personally drafted The Marital Dissolution Agreement.

If she wanted to make a clean break, the proper procedures had to be completed so she would have absolutely no further ties to Killian.

The terms of the agreement were crystal clear: there were no financial disputes. Each party would retain their respective assets without interference.

They had one son and one daughter from the marriage. Killian would take custody of their son, Connor, and Jillian would take custody of their daughter, Stella. Jillian would pay child support for Connor on time. As for Stella's living expenses, Killian would bear no financial responsibility.

The agreement also explicitly stated that Stella would have no inheritance rights to Killian's assets in the future. This was a promise she had made to Killian back when she adopted Stella. Meanwhile, Connor would still retain his statutory right to inherit Jillian's assets.

Jillian reviewed it word for word three times, ensuring there were no loopholes, before finally signing her name.

After the championship, Stella returned to school.

Being one of the few student-athletes to win a professional tournament, she was quite famous around campus.

Her classmates constantly surrounded her, full of curiosity. "Stella, why didn't we see you at the exhibition gala? You won first place, so we all thought you'd be the grand finale. We waited forever but never saw you go on stage."

The question accurately poked at Stella's sore spot.

She replied nonchalantly, "There was a last-minute schedule change, so I didn't get to perform in the end."

Her classmates didn't press further.

On the day school let out, Jillian was tied up in an important meeting and couldn't get away.

When Daniel found out, he offered to pick up the child for her.

Given their years of friendship, Jillian trusted Daniel implicitly and didn't hesitate. "Thank you so much. I've already let my mother and Stella's teacher know. Just make sure she gets home safe."

Daniel nodded, grabbed his car keys, and headed to the elementary school.
