Chapter 146 Let Go
Deborah was full and fell asleep lying on the sofa.
She answered the phone in a daze and suddenly heard Ashton agree to divorce. She thought she was dreaming.
She almost woke up with a start and immediately put the phone closer to her eyes. Then, she saw an unknown number displayed on the screen.
She had blocked the number that Ashton had used to call her not long ago.
Deborah felt that she might actually be dreaming right now, so she asked, “Who are you?”
This time, Ashton’s voice became clear. “Debby, 1 said that I agreed to divorce you.”
Deborah was furious. “What’s wrong with you?”
Less than an hour ago, he called her and said that he would never divorce her. He even threatened that he would sue Joseph and destroy him.
Ashton said in a deep voice, “I’m serious. I agree to the divorce, and I won’t make things difficult for you.”
Deborah didn’t know what was on Ashton’s mind. She couldn’t help but sit up from the sofa and ask with some expectation, “Do you have some kind of mental disorder?”
There was silence for a while. Deborah thought Ashton was finally going to show his true colors, but then he said, “If you don’t want to get a divorce, then forget it.”
Deborah suddenly thought, “Why should I care about his problem and purpose?”
Anyway, as long as she could get the divorce certificate as soon as possible, everything would be just fine.
If he put forward some confusing conditions before the divorce, she only needed to be more careful not to agree to those unreasonable ones.
In order to avoid more trouble, Deborah responded immediately, “Then tomorrow morning it is. The Civil Affairs. Bureau opens at 8:30 am, and we will meet by then.”
Ashton found these words a bit familiar. He suddenly remembered the day Deborah turned 20 seven years ago.
That’s what Deborah said when she urged him to get up early in the morning to get married.
Seven years ago, they were the first to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married. And today, seven years later, she was in a hurry to get divorced.
Alyssa was right. Deborah had been disappointed in this marriage for a long time and only wanted to get rid of it quickly.
Ashton thought of what Alyssa had said and made up his mind. So he didn’t plan to make things too difficult for Deborah.
He responded, “Okay, I will be there on time at 8:30 am. You reissued your documents three years ago, didn’t you? Remember to bring them all. Also, I hope you stay in Richmond after the divorce.”
Deborah agreed without thinking. “No problem. I won’t leave Richmond in the future.”
However, it was just her words, not an actual promise.
Once she divorced Ashton, she could go wherever she wanted. How could Ashton control her again?

Ashton didn’t expect her to agree so readily. Thinking that she would always be in Richmond in the future, he felt a lot
more at case,
Afraid that he would regret it, Deborah hurriedly said, “I’ll wait for you at 8:30 tomorrow morning.” Then, she hung up the phone directly.
Ashton stared at the phone screen and heard the beep sound of the phone being hung up.
He could even teel her great surprise and excitement through the phone.
Jett stood aside, a little stunned.
When Ashton got up and was about to go upstairs, he couldn’t help asking, “Sir, what about the matter of suing Joseph and inciting public opinion to destroy his career…”
Ashton walked upstairs without turning back and said softly, “Forget about it.”
Jeff was stunned for a long time before he replied, “Okay.”
He looked upstairs again, but Ashton had long gone.
Jeff suddenly felt that girls indeed cared about their mothers a lot.
In the future, with Joseph and a grown-up daughter, Deborah’s hard life would probably become much better.
As soon as Deborah hung up the phone, she immediately got up and walked quickly into the bathroom.
She had been paying attention to her health for the past few years. She had never used cold water in such cold.
weather.
Deborah knew she was not in good health, and Joseph was always busy with work. If she got sick, he would be worried.
and waste much time accompanying her.
But now she was a bite overexcited. She directly bent over to the sink and washed her face with cold water.
The cold water hit her face, and she couldn’t help shivering.
And now, Deborah was finally wide awake.
She stared at herself in the mirror and smirked.
“Ashton wanted to divorce me. He actually agreed! Haha!”
As soon as she finished the divorce process tomorrow, she would date Joseph in public.
Before she could be any happier, her mobile phone on the coffee table outside rang.
Deborah’s heart went cold, as if a bucket of icy water had been poured on her head.
She thought, “Damn. I forgot to block his number.”
This call was very likely from Ashton, who was about to regret his decision.
