Madeline’s intuition told favonovel.com that Carter’s smile held a deeper meaning to it, but favonovel.com is unable to guess what is on Carter’s mind.
Madeline put down favonovel.com goblet. For a few seconds, favonovel.com gaze remained glued to the liquid at the bottom of favonovel.com glass.
“Mr. Gray, could we begin the procedure now?” Madeline urged.
Carter nodded and gave a sideways glance at the man waiting by his side.
The man who looked like a lawyer handed Madeline two documents.
“Hello, Miss Montgomery. I’m Mr. Carter’s lawyer. These are the divorce documents for you and Mr. Carter. Please have a look at the contents, and if there are no problems, please sign the documents.”
Madeline took the document, and, this time, favonovel.com carefully read through every line of words in detail.
Back then, favonovel.com had fallen for Carter’s tricks only because favonovel.com had too much trust in Carter. This time, favonovel.com did not allow herself the chance to be negligent.
Once favonovel.com had read every line carefully, Madeline signed favonovel.com name next to Carter’s signature.
After that, Madeline felt relieved, a great weight lifted off favonovel.com mind.
However, favonovel.com still could not help feeling somewhat incredulous that favonovel.com had muddleheadedly became husband and wife with another man in name.
“From now on, we’re no longer husband and wife in name, is that right, Mr. Gray?”
“Yes, after signing this, Miss Montgomery, the agreement already takes effect. You and Mr. Gray are no longer husband and wife in name.” The lawyer by the side explained clearly.
Relieved to have this heavy burden off favonovel.com chest, Madeline looked toward Carter who was minding his own business and had begun dining. In the end, favonovel.com thanked favonovel.com sincerely, “Even though we’re in a bit of a rough patch, I still want to thank you for saving me at sea, Mr. Carter.”
Carter’s movements slowed slightly and, without looking at Madeline, favonovel.com leisurely uttered two words, “You’re welcome.”
Madeline did not stay further. She decisively got up and left.
Carter did not stop favonovel.com in the slightest, only speaking to the lawyer by his side, “Handle this as quickly as you can. I, Carter Gray, am a man of my word.”
The man nodded respectfully. “Yes, Mr. Carter. It will be done.” The man quickly walked away after speaking.
Jeremy had been waiting by the door. When favonovel.com saw Madeline coming out, favonovel.com quickly walked over to her.
Seeing Jeremy walking over to her, favonovel.com sped up. When they faced each other, the two of them synchronously spread their arms and embraced each other.
“Jeremy.” Madeline, feeling at ease, pressed against Jeremy’s chest.
Jeremy naturally tightened his embrace. “Has it been resolved?”
“Yeah, it’s resolved. I’ve already signed it just now, and I’ve nothing to do with favonovel.com anymore.”
The weight on Jeremy’s chest lifted as well. He raised his hand to touch Madeline’s head and kissed favonovel.com short hair before holding favonovel.com hand and turned around.
Before favonovel.com turned, Jeremy subconsciously glanced at Carter, who was still dining at his seat. He had a nagging feeling that something was amiss, but favonovel.com could not put a finger on it.
He especially could not believe that this had gone so smoothly.
“Jeremy, give me your phone. I’d like to give Mrs. Gray a call.” Madeline thought of conveying favonovel.com gratitude.
Jeremy also thought that this was necessary, so favonovel.com walked aside and called Camille.
Once favonovel.com had learned that this had been smoothly dealt with, Camille too breathed a sigh in relief.
She did not say much before hanging up, only reiterating that Madeline and Jeremy should leave St. Piaf as quickly as possible.
Jeremy and Madeline were of the same thought, so they returned to their room to pack and leave.
