The Love that Never Really Dies novel Chapter 161

Sasha even cut to the chase and asked for the reason she was called here.

Frederick nodded and answered honestly, “Sasha, I’ve given this matter some thought. I thought I had made the right decision when I arranged for you to marry into our family years ago, but now I’ve come to regret it. So, if you want to, I can have that reversed immediately.”

Sebastian fell silent.

“Sure,” the woman, who had just walked in, replied succinctly without any hesitation.

She had not even taken a side glance at Sebastian the whole time.

Sebastian clenched his fists but could not control the veins in his temples from popping violently.

“Alright, since that’s what you wish, I’ll get the household register right now. Once we have your identity restored at the registration office, you and Sebastian can get your divorce certificate right after.”

Frederick was about to instruct someone to retrieve their household register when Sasha spoke, “Thanks, Frederick. But I think we should keep a low profile, just in case it damages the company’s reputation.”

“What do you mean?”

“Sebastian and I can just settle the matter at the civil affairs office at any time. But if he’s not willing to, you may still have to come with me,” Sasha suggested.

Once again, the old man was touched by the thoughtfulness of this woman who would soon cease to be his daughter-in-law and was prepared to agree to her suggestion.

Before Frederick could speak, his son beat him to it as he gritted the words through his teeth, “You’re not seriously asking my father to go to the civil affairs office with you? It sounds like it’s him you’re divorcing!”

The atmosphere in the living room immediately turned frosty. The tension was so tangible in the air one could almost smell the explosives.

Frederick’s eyes widened in intense fury; his fists balled up as he was about to teach his son some manners.

It was Sasha who maintained her composure and spoke matter-of-factly, “I don’t blame you if you understood it that way since that was how we got married in the first place anyway.”

“You—” Sebastian was so overcome with anger he was fumbling for more insults to hurl at the woman.
