Upon hearing Lester's words, Jodie felt a little uncomfortable and she looked very embarrassed. She pursed her lips and stared at Heinz.
Heinz's eyes were cold.
"Hurry up. Finish it and Lester will send you back."
Seeing that Heinz was going to shake her off like a hot potato in his hands, Jodie laughed at herself and said, "Heinz, since you can do this to me, I don't know whether you will do the same to your new wife in the future."
His brows immediately furrowed. Heinz's cool breath filled the surroundings and he walked towards Jodie.
In an instant, Jodie's entire body tensed up. She was terrified and she subconsciously took a step back.
"Heinz, what are you doing?"
"So this is your true self," Heinz said coldly. "Even when you can't get what you want, you curse others. It seems that it's the right move to divorce you."
Jodie was stunned and her face paled even more, becoming like a sheet of paper.
She gawked at the man in front of her as if she didn't know him. "When did I ever curse you? I just want to remind you that you are being too heartless."
Heinz stood straight in front of Jodie and his gaze locked with hers. His mood was gloomy because of her. He suppressed the emotion in his eyes and tightened his handsome face. "This matter should have been settled a long time ago. 'Lovers part, but still long for one another'; that has never been my style. I hope you can show some respect for yourself."
After that, he turned around and walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Jodie stopped in her tracks in embarrassment. She looked sorrowfully at the tall figure walking away. There was a hint of sadness and despair in her eyes.
"Miss Lawson, please come in." Lester extended his hand and coldly gestured for her to come in. He urged Jodie, not giving her any chance to retreat.
"I didn't bring my ID card," Jodie said as she glanced at Lester.
"I've brought it." Lester replied, "Don't worry, I've brought all the documents."
Jodie's expression grew even more awkward.
Her lips trembled and her eyes reddened again.
"Don't cry." Lester bluntly said, "Miss Lawson, I'm a rough man and don't know how to take pity on women. When I see a woman cry, I don't feel the slightest bit of pity for her. On the contrary, I can't help but get angry and want to hit her, so don't cry in front of me. I'm afraid that if I won't be able to restrain myself and I'll hit you. When the time comes, it's hard to say if you're going to suffer and I'm not going to look good either."
"Lester, you..." Jodie's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at him.
"I am this kind of person." Lester smiled, then immediately retracted it. It was as if he had changed his face in a split second.
Jodie laughed at herself. Without looking at anyone, she walked towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Soon, they reached the inner sanctum.
Heinz was waiting for her, and his eyes were unfriendly.
Jodie's longing eyes fell on Heinz's face.
"Hurry up." Heinz motioned in a low voice.
Jodie also quickly sat down.
The staff member got everything ready and began to question them.
"Heinz, are you willing to divorce Jodie?"
Heinz nodded. "We reached an agreement six years ago, but she was kidnapped by the locals when she went to Alsburg. It was mistakenly thought that she had already died. Now, she is back and we're reapplying for the divorce certificate."
It was a succinct and clear explanation. One sentence was enough to explain the whole situation clearly.
The staff member nodded. "Your lawyer has clarified the basis of the situation clearly."
Heinz nodded slightly.
