He Filled My Life novel Chapter 10

When Thalia woke up, it was already the next day.

She looked at the empty living room and suddenly sat up on the sofa. She quickly ran upstairs toward the study.

She pushed open the door to the study, only to see a cup of unfinished coffee and a trash can filled with discarded papers.

She knelt on the ground, poured out the discarded papers from the trash can, and unfolded them one by one.

Each piece of paper contained a sketch of a wedding dress. Some of them were half-completed. Some only had a veil...

As it turned out, everything that happened last night was not a dream. Adam was indeed designing the perfect wedding dress she dreamed of...

Thalia smiled and put the discarded papers into the drawer of her own desk, as though they were her most precious treasure.

When she was about to close the drawer, she saw a document in there.

The smile on her face gradually became sorrowful.

When Mrs. Cloude saw her, she was very shocked.

Thalia walked into the yard with a faint smile on her face. "Mom, am I not welcome home?"

Mrs. Cloude snapped out of her reverie and said, "Of course you're welcome. Come in and take a seat. How do you find the time to visit us today? Aren't you busy with your company?"

The look on Mrs. Cloude's face was cheerful. As it seemed, she was indeed happy to see Thalia come home.

Thalia stepped into the house. She looked at the white hair on Mrs. Cloude's temples and said in a low voice, "Mom, I will divorce Adam soon. Although I was the one asking for a divorce, I still feel awful..."
