Chapter 83
Bella‘s POV: Miranda said that he was showing his weakness to me. I didn‘t hear any sign of weakness. It was an insult. He firmly believed that I cheated, but in fact, I did nothing. And his relationship with Caroline was full of ambiguity. He didn‘t explain to me his relationship with her.
If he didn‘t explain, it meant that he admitted it! A second ago, he bought a wedding ring with Caroline, but now he didn‘t want to divorce me. What did he want to do? Stay with me? I would continue to be his nominal wife? And then Caroline would be his lover? No, this was absolutely not possible! In that impulsive mood, I didn‘t chase out to look for Herbert. The next day, I didn‘t eat. I cried for a long time. In fact, for a moment, I also regretted that if I agreed not to contact Hank, would he really not divorce me and continue to live with me? I liked Herbert. From my point of view, I didn‘t want a divorce. After all, no one wanted to leave their beloved husband. But he had never said that he wanted to break off his relationship with Caroline. I suppressed my true feelings and let rationality occupy my brain. It was just an idea. My self–esteem would never allow me to agree to such ridiculous conditions, and I would never tolerate sharing my husband with another woman. This was my bottom line!” At eight o‘clock the next morning, I came to the office and waited for Herbert to apply for the divorce certificate. The weather today was particularly gloomy, just like my low mood at this moment. I wore a black coat. In order to make my face look better, I deliberately put on light makeup, but I still couldn‘t hide my red and swollen eyes. Herbert hadn‘t come yet. I looked down at the watch on my wrist. It had been five minutes. He was a punctual person. I didn‘t know why he was late today.
The next moment, a black figure suddenly walked in from outside the main hall. Behind him, as usual, was Connor.
Herbert‘s face was still cold. His black fur coat was very straight, but there was a little stubble on his chin, which showed his masculine charm. He was looking at me, and I immediately lowered my eyes. My heart was in a mess, but I didn‘t want him to see any panic. My self–esteem didn‘t allow me to show my panic,
entanglement, and sadness in front of him. Connor walked up and said, “Mrs. Wharton, did you get the queuing number?”

19.09 Hearing this, I was at a loss. I had never had a divorce, I didn‘t know how to get the number. Sol shook my head. “I‘ll go and get it.“Connor walked over to pick up the number. At this time, Herbert took a step forward and said in a low voice, “What‘s your request? You can put it forward now.”
Hearing this, I looked up at him and immediately understood that he thought I would ask for money. My heart seemed to be stung by bees. Was I so unbearable in his eyes? That he thought I would take his money when I got divorced. “Herbert, listen carefully. I don‘t have any requirements. I just hope that you won‘t pester me in the future!” | raised my chin and said. In fact, I was the only one who knew how contrary my words were. But in front of him, I still couldn‘t show weakness. I couldn‘t let him look down on me! * Herbert‘s POV:
A took some time to get to the office hall. I didn‘t expect Bella to be here so early. Was she so eager to divorce me? She didn‘t look very well. Connor went to get the queuing number.
I got close to Bella.
I wanted her to make a request to me. In fact, I wanted Bella to put forward a condition that I couldn‘t accept, so that I could delay the divorce. But Bella didn‘t seem to miss me at all. She just wanted to distance herself from me and didn‘t want to have any contact with me. A surge of rage erupted from my chest. Who was i? I was the successor of the Wharton Family! I had a strong sense of self–esteem! Since the other party had already shown such indifference, I would not show my reluctance. I said to her coldly, “Do you think you are such an amazing woman? I will never pester you.” At this time, Connor already brought over a note. “Mr. Wharton, Mrs. Wharton, there are many people who are going to get a
divorce today. They are 28 people in queue. I don‘t think you will be able to do anything this morning.” Connor told Bella and
Connor suggested, “Why don‘t we come back tomorrow?” “We can do it in the afternoon, we don‘t have to wait until tomorrow!” I said. I said this when I was angry. Bella didn‘t care about me, so I instinctively showed that I didn‘t care about her at all.
It seemed that doing so could protect my dignity. Bella said, “One o‘clock in the afternoon, let‘s come to queue earlier!”
“That‘s it.” I nodded immediately. Just as we turned around and were about to leave a young man and a woman suddenly came over, holding hands Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

The young man said to Connor, “Sir, are you guys going to get a divorce? I‘m in the third queue. Why don‘t I give it to you?”
Where did these two people come from! I glared at Connor. Connor immediately said, “There‘s no need. You should keep it for yourselves.” “It‘s alright. We don‘t want to divorce anymore. We‘ve reconciled!” The man raised his hand with a smile as he held the woman‘s hand. The woman was also very happy and smiled warmly. Connor didn‘t take it. My hands were placed in my pockets, and my face was icy cold. At this moment, I only hoped that the couple would leave quickly and not give us their number. Unexpectedly, Bella took the note and said, “Thank you!” Bella actually accepted the note? What did she mean?
She wanted to divorce me as soon as possible? “No. 3 please come to No. 1 window.” At this time, the call came. I was already furious to the extreme, so I first walked to the No. 1 window. We sat side by side at the No. 1 window. After handing over the ID card and the agreement, the clerk asked for an
explanation and then took out the divorce certificate for us to sign. I did not hesitate to pick up the pen and write my name down. Bella also picked up the pen and signed her name neatly.
Just like that, we were divorced!
When I got the divorce certificate, I hadn‘t reacted yet. From now on, Bella and I were no longer husband and wife? When I realized this, I felt a lot of pain... Bella‘s POV: Herbert and I divorced! When I put the divorce certificate into my bag, I felt that the bag I was carrying weighed a thousand pounds.
I thought that after the divorce, my heart would be relieved, but now it seemed that I was more entangled than before.
Without saying a word to me, Herbert went down the stairs and got into the car.
I slowly descended the stairs. Just as I was about to leave, Connor caught up.
“Well... Miss Stepanek, please get in the car!” “I‘m going back to get my luggage.” I was no longer the wife of Herbert, so I naturally had to leave with my luggage as soon as possible. I had packed up my luggage last night. “Mr. Wharton is going home as well. It‘s along the way.” Connor hurriedly explained. Hearing this, I refused, “No, it‘s convenient to call a taxi here.” At this moment, Connor said, “After all, you‘re moving out from Mr. Wharton‘s house. You have to choose the time when he‘s around, right?” Himmediately understood what Connor meant. Did Herbert want to watch me leave, so as to

19–100 prevent me from taking away the valuable things in his family? My lips quivered. Was I such a woman in his eyes? After that, I got into the car in anger. But this time, I chose to sit in the front passenger seat instead of the back seat with him. If I still had a trace of affection for him just now, then now I really hated him. It turned out that he was also a jerk, and he was not much better than my ex– boyfriend.“
