Chapter 1

Anna Brown looked at the divorce papers on the table that her husband had already signed.

She looked in the direction of the window with tears in her eyes. Justin Salvador was standing there in the glow of the afternoon sun, looking as perfect and cold as a stone sculpture and emanating an oppressive vibe.

“I’ve signed the papers. You should sign them as soon as possible so that we can finalize the divorce before Rose comes home.”

Justin put his hands behind his back and said, without glancing at her, “Since we had a prenuptial agreement, there won’t be any issues with property division. But as compensation, I will give you an additional $20 million as well as the villa in the western suburbs. After all, I won’t be able to explain it to Grandpa if you leave without taking a cent.”

Anna was dumbstruck. “Does Grandpa know that you want to divorce me?”

“Grandpa’s opinion won’t affect my decision.”

Anna’s slender body shook, so she could only hold onto the edge of the table to stabilize herself. Tears streamed down her face as she asked, “Justin, can we please stay married?”

Finally, Justin turned around and looked at her doubtfully.

He pursed his thin lips and narrowed his dark eyes. His handsome face still made Anna’s heart skip a beat.

“Why?”

“Because I love you.”

Anna’s eyes were red and tearful. “Justin, I love you. I still want to be your wife even if you don’t have feelings for me…”

“I’ve had enough of this, Anna. A marriage without love is torture for me.”

Justin waved her off. He did not even have the patience to listen to her. “Our marriage was a mistake from the start. You knew that I was just fighting with Grandpa back then. You also knew that I liked Rose. I just couldn’t be with her back then for certain reasons. She’s coming back from Meridan soon, and I plan to marry her, so you have to leave now that our three-year contract period is up.”

Anna lowered her head. Large teardrops fell on the table, but she quickly wiped them away.

Justin noticed it, but he did not say a word.

At this time, his phone rang. He quickly answered the call when he saw the name on the screen.
