The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky novel Chapter 5

“I’m sorry, Miss Manson. According to the marriage law, there’s a one-month cooling-off period when filing for a divorce. Besides, your husband doesn’t have his ID card, so we can’t process your divorce right away…”

A female staff member returned all the documents politely to Marilyn.

“Screw this! Why is there a cooling-off period before I can get a divorce?! Call your manager. I want him to proceed with it right away!”

Brody slapped the table angrily.

“Sir, I’m just following the rules…”

The female staff was unhappy but she still maintained her politeness.

“Don’t give me that crap! I told you to call your manager! Are you deaf?” Brody shouted harshly.

He caused such a huge ruckus that everyone was either giving him the side-eye or peering at him with a weird expression.

It was the first time an incident like that happened there.

At that moment, the senior officials within the Civil Records Office were also alarmed, and a middle-aged man with a slightly fat body trotted over in a rush.

“It’s you, Brody… Please calm down. Amber here isn’t aware of who you are. She didn’t mean to… please forgive me…”

The middle-aged man smiled apologetically before turning around and scolding the female staff. “Do you know who this is, Amber? He’s the boss of Sullivan Enterprises. You should apologize right away!”

“Sullivan Enterprises?”

The people around were taken aback.

Sullivan Enterprises is a well-known upstart in Springfield City. Its total assets reached as high as half a billion and it had an insane amount of wealth. He was the kind of person that no one should offend.

“I’m sorry, Mister Sullivan. I was mistaken. Please forgive me…”

Amber was so frightened that she quickly got up and bowed to Brody in apology.

Brody was satisfied with this, and at the same time, he enjoyed the awe-inspiring gazes cast by the people around him.

“Mister Loewe, please expedite the divorce for my woman. And while you’re at it, register our marriage too!”

“Yes, I’ll do it right now.”

The middle-aged man smiled and processed both the divorce between Leon and Marilyn as well as the marriage between Marilyn and Brody.

“You’re amazing, darling! I love that side of you!” Marilyn snuggled in Brody’s arms like a kitten and said coquettishly.

Brody’s power and influence brought pride to Marilyn and Helen.

“Who is she? How did she get to know Sullivan Enterprises’ eldest young master?”

“She is one lucky woman!”

…

The people around her could not help but cast envious glances at Marilyn, with some of the young women showing a rather noticeable look of jealousy.

Marilyn basked in the limelight as she giggled and smiled. She became as pretentious as could be!

Meanwhile, everyone immediately felt that Leon’s position in the relationship was usurped. Everyone stared at him strangely, with some feeling pity toward him while others showed contempt.

Leon felt more and more humiliated as a result, and he wishes he could just dig a hole and burrow into it!

After getting the divorce certificate, the sour-faced Leon was about to leave when Brody stopped him.

“Leaving so soon? I won’t let you off so easy!”

Brody smiled coldly.

Leon’s face sank. “What are you planning on doing to me?”

“What do you think? You wasted so much of my woman’s time this morning, and you were adamantly refusing to go ahead with the divorce on the pretext that you lost your ID card! Do you think I’ll just let all that slide?” Brody sneered.

“I’ve made myself very clear, didn’t I? I never refused to divorce her and my ID card is missing…”

Leon suppressed his anger.
