"Angeline, I'm sorry." He apologized silently in his heart.
"Jaybie has broken the promise.
"We have really gotten to this point, yet I still can't bear to take you with me.
"You were right. If marriage is already a shackle and a cage that suffocates people, why don't we let each other go and be well?"
Jay was silent for a while, then he suddenly called out, "Finn."
Finn bowed before him. "President Ares."
"Bring me the divorce agreement."
Finn's handsome face turned pale. "President Ares, Miss Severe won’t divorce you. Why do you need to do this?"
A thin layer of water was reflected in Jay’s eyes. "I’ve tied her to me for half of my life and it has caused her more pain than sweetness. I can't be so selfish as to not even give her a way to survive until death."
Finn stood still.
Angeline did not know how much President Ares loved her, but he knew.
President Ares was using the remaining time he had
left in his life to building a strong castle for her so that she did not have to worry about food or clothing and could be rich till she was old-both materialistically and spiritually.
All those bitter tricks by President Ares had probably caused Angelina to hate him deeply. If President Ares died in doom, Angeline might not end up being so hurt.
However, President Ares had been so wronged!
"Hurry up," Jay scolded.
Finn turned around slowly and went upstairs.
He took out the prepared divorce agreement from the folder. It was in fact more like a pure property transfer agreement rather than a divorce agreement.
As there were no descriptions of any emotional entanglement in the divorce agreement, the reason for divorce was simply written as 'Majeure'.
