Chapter 300

Oh, right. About what you asked for.” Giselle pulled out a docume it and handed it to Anathea.

It was a divorce petition.

Anathea took the document. Under reason for divorce, it clearly stated “irreconcilable differences“.

She’d asked Giselle to draft it last night, just before she’d headed to Hale Eatery.

“You’ve really decided to go through with a divorce from Gregory Giselle asked. She’d assumed Anathea would hesitate longer, considering her personality.

“Yes,” Anathea replied calmly but with unmistakable resolve.

It was a decision she’d reached after several days of careful though

To be honest, Gregory’s recent kindness had shaken her resolve. But in the end, his affection felt more like a mirage in the desert -fleeting and gone before she could reach it.

He’d said he would try to love her, but to Anathea, that “love” was always wrapped in fog. She couldn’t tell if it was real or just another illusion.

She wasn’t willing to gamble again. Her heart was already too bruised and too fragile to survive another fall. So the only thing she could do now was walk away while she still could.

Pushing forward with both Adam’s appeal and her own divorce at the same time was the only way to truly break free from

Gregory.

“Honestly, I think it’s the right move. If Mr. Jacobson’s case gets overturned, Gregory won’t let you off easily. So either don’t act at all, or go all the way. That way, he can’t hold anything over you anymore.”

“Don’t worry.” Giselle stretched her arms with a graceful smile, “It’s been ages since I’ve had anything this challenging. Honestly, I’m looking forward to it. If all goes well, we’ll see the results within a week.”

After parting with Giselle, Anathea got into her car. She glanced at her phone just as a message from Gregory popped up. “You went to see your father?”

Anathea froze. Her spine straightened instinctively as she glanced around the parking lot. But she didn’t see anyone suspicious.

Another message followed. “I went by your office. You weren’t there,”

Only then did she exhale. She quickly replied, “Yeah, I stopped by. Just chatted a little. Did you need something from me?”

As soon as she sent that, her phone started ringing.

When she answered, Gregory’s pleasant voice came through the line. “I missed you, so I went to look for you.”

“Mr. Sinclair, can you be serious for once?” Anathea asked, exasperated.

“Iam being serious. I’m seriously missing you,” he replied, as if that were the most natural thing in the worl

Anathea pressed her lips together at his words. “If you keep this up I’m going to hang up.”

“Alright, alright.” Gregory then got to the point. “There’s a launch event for a new project this afternoon, I need you to attend with me.”
