If it turned out that he was suffering from some hidden illness, she might just be held responsible for it. Consequently, she would not be able to get a divorce.

Renee pinned the strands of her hair and cleared her throat. She felt that she should greet him, given that they were a couple. It was better to part on good terms.

She waved her hand at him and revealed a fake smile that she thought looked very natural.

�Hi!"

However, he pursed his thin lips tightly and wore a cold face. He ignored her and strode away with his stork-like legs. He left� just like that.

This left her at a loss for words.

Her smile stiffened, and she felt both awkward and angry.

�Damn! Why is he so arrogant?� she thought. �Even if we�re no longer a couple, I wiped his body clean for a few days. Does he have to make it so unpleasant?�

Renee quickened her steps and followed him, walking toward the divorce department on the second floor.

The crowd that was seeking divorce turned out to be as large as before, but there were only around four or five couples at the marriage registration counter today.

Renee could not help as a pang of sentimentality hit her hard. As expected, people nowadays had thought things through. The marriage system would eventually fade away.

Stefan managed to get into an express lane, thanks to his special identity.

The staff was very flattering. After he accepted their relevant documents, he poured them a drink and politely asked them to wait.

Hence, they sat side by side in silence. The atmosphere was filled with a peculiar, almost palpable tension.

Renee put the paper cup to her mouth and sipped on the warm water as a barrage of convoluted feelings swirled in her chest.

She was about to get a divorce certificate, meaning she would no longer have any relationship with him.

If they had a tacit understanding, they might never see each other again, just like the past three days, disappearing completely from each other�s world.

She had seen it through, and she had long let go, but she failed to stop a sudden wave of sorrow from engulfing her. It got worse when she thought of the two babies in her belly. Their lives would be lacking from the moment they were born. They would never have a father.

She began to wonder if her children would blame her for being reckless and selfish when they grew up.

�I should tell him about the babies�� persuaded a ceaseless voice in her mind. JrNovels.com
