Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 153

Julian looked at her deeply for a moment before looking down to flip the 'Marital Property Agreement' back to the first page, reading it over once more.

Everything was proceeding according to his plan. He knew full well that when their marriage eventually ended, the shares he was handing over as a stopgap measure would return right back to him.

Yet, reading the line, 'All profits generated by these shares shall belong entirely to the female party, Elara Sterling, as personal property, and shall not be considered joint marital assets,' Julian couldn't help but feel an indescribably complicated emotion.

He continued reading. As he finished and breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but reflect that even though Elara had become paranoid and whiny, she still knew her place and hadn't used the opportunity to make outrageous demands.

Julian picked up the pen, signed his name on the line for the male party, and then pressed his thumb onto the ink pad to leave a fingerprint, just as she requested.

Once both copies were signed and stamped, he quickly grabbed a wet wipe to clean his hands. "Is that good enough?"

Elara took them, signed her own name, stamped her fingerprint, and handed one copy back to him. "Yes, it is."

Julian took it, only to hear her ask, "Should we do the Corporate Registry Filing at the Department of Business Oversight tomorrow morning, or in the afternoon?"
