Female Novel
Chapter 661
Richard took the phone and was shocked to discover divorce papers there. His heart raced joyfully, andhe couldn’t believe it when he asked, “Have you really decided?”
“Sign it!” Selene said.
Richard quickly glanced through the divorce papers. He felt like he was giving in a bit, but heconsidered it compensation for using Selene all these years.
Worried that Selene might regret her decision, he eagerly signed it. “Selene, if you ever need anythingin the future, you can still come to me!”
Selene responded with a cold snort and approached Oliver, whispering, “Oliver, let’s go!”
She had divorce papers ready on her phone at all times. To be precise, she had considered divorcecountless times since falling out with Richard.
So why hadn’t she divorced him?
It was because she couldn’t accept it. She couldn’t accept that her choice had failed. She couldn’taccept being a failure herself. Most of all, she couldn’t accept seeing everything she had worked sohard for handed over to another woman.
She clung to her marriage, even if it was just to quietly gather evidence, updating the divorce papersagain and again.
At that moment, all her determination vanished.
Maybe she should have treated it as if she had never given birth to this child from the start.
“Selene.” Oliver changed the way he addressed her to match her wishes.
Selene gave Oliver a long look, took a pocket watch from her neck, and handed it to him.
Oliver looked at the pocket watch that Selene had cherished for years, a gift from her grandmother. Nomatter her changing attire and accessories, this pocket watch had never left her side.
“It’s yours now.” Once Selene decided to divorce, it was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from hershoulders. She confidently walked away as if embracing a new life.
Oliver looked at the pocket watch in his hand, then back at Selene’s retreating figure. He couldn’t quitegrasp her intentions as he returned to Marcus’ side.
“What does Selene mean?” Oliver asked.
Marcus took the pocket watch from Oliver and pondered. “Let’s not dwell on it for now.”
Oliver and Marcus knew that the bride on the stage wasn’t Esther but Mandy. They watched asChadwick and Mandy continued with the wedding as mere spectators.
Since signing the divorce papers, Richard had become more comfortable and relaxed. With Selenegone, he eagerly seated Liora beside him, implying she was his new partner.
In other words, Mrs. Pendleton could be anyone aside from Selene.
Chadwick glanced at the emcee and said icily, “Continue.”
The emcee followed the wedding program. “Parents, please take your seats.”
Chadwick observed as Richard led Liora to the designated seats.novelbin
