If it had been any other day, her mind this restless, she would've had a hard tsleeping. But ever since she

got pregnant, she’d been unusually sleepy. Lying in bed, thoughts tumbling around in her head, she still drifted

off not long after.

She forgot to set an alarm. By the tshe woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She glanced at the

time-it was 8.03 a.m.

City Hall would be opening soon. She and James were really going to get divorced!

“James?”

Opening her bedroom door, Lily jumped in surprise. She hadn't expected James to be standing right outside.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she thought she saw a trace of unspoken sorrow and pain on

that breathtakingly handsome, regal face of his.

And under his eyes were faint dark circles, as if he hadn't slept at all.

“Lily.”

James really hadn't slept a wink all night.

Early that morning, he’d seen another one of Jackson's Facebook posts-set to be visible only to him.

“Getting the marriage certificate today! From now on, she can touch her favorite abs every single day, how

excited!”

Attached was a photo of Jackson's ID.

Clearly, Jackson was just waiting for him and Lily to finalize their divorce so he could immediately register a

marriage with her. James also knew how much Lily liked Jackson, she dreamed of marrying him. But he just

couldn't bear to see her marry someone else.

He knew this behavior was low and shameless; still, he forced out an excuse without blinking. “Sorry. Something

urgent’s cup. | have to head to Velkaria, and I'm not sure when I'll be back. | probably won't be able to go to

City Hall with you today to get the divorce certificate.”

Suppressing the disgust he felt toward himself, he even glanced meaningfully at the luxury watch on his left

wrist. “I'm heading downstairs.”

With that, his long, straight legs strode forward, and he quickly made his way downstairs.

“Wait...”

Lily wanted to say they could get the divorce certificate first, and he could go to Velkaria afterward.

But he was already walking so fast. Clearly, whatever was happening in Velkaria was urgent.

And she’d woken up late. Rumor had it there'd been a surge in divorce filings lately, and if they went to City Hall

now, they'd likely have to wait in line. She didn’t feel right calling after him.

Tomorrow and the day after were the weekend; City Hall would definitely be closed. That meant they'd have to

wait until Monday to register the divorce.

She'd need to cancel tonight's flight first.

If he cback before Monday, she could just rebook her ticket for that day.

“James...”

Everyone in the Luke family knew that James and Lily were supposed to register their divorce today, they were

all waiting downstairs for the two of them.

Even Victor was htoday.

When they saw James leave in a rush without saying a word, Ivan and the others all turned to Lily.

“Lily, wasn’t James going with you to get the divorce certificate? Where's he rushing off to?”

“He said something urgent cup in Velkaria and he needs to handle it.”

Blanc, who had been sitting on the sofa in silence, frowned suspiciously.

How c| haven't heard of anything that urgent in Luke Corp that needs the little punk to handle personally?

Was he deliberately stalling to avoid the divorce?

Almost immediately, he dismissed the thought. If the little punk really didn’t want a divorce, then why was he

the one pushing Lily into blind dates and encouraging her to flaunt affection with Jackson?

James owned quite a few businesses; it was probably an issue with one of his own companies in Velkaria that

required his presence.

“That brat!”

Henry, who currently couldn’t stand the sight of James, slammed his hand on the coffee table. “He’s the one who

insisted on divorcing Lily over srandom fling; now he can’t even show up on tto sign the damn papers?

What a disgrace!”

Lily knew James hadn't missed the appointment on purpose.

After all, he was the one who wanted the divorce the most.

She didn't want the elders to criticize

him and instinctively spoke up in Ris

defense. ‘It really. Was an efn&fgency.

When Ses back, we can just go

get the divorce certificate on

Monday-it won't be too late.” The

Reportedly, it had been the finale piece of that auction and had sold for a staggering a few million dollark

She hadn’t expected the Luke family to be the ones who bought it.

The bracelets Grace and Nancy had

given her before were already lavish

enough. Now that she@d Ides’

“Keep it!”

Grace pretended to be stern. “If | say you keep it, you keep it! If you don’t, I'll get upset!”
