Chapter: 1938
The paperwork was extensive, and even with a high fever of 39.5 degrees, Mark insisted on reading through each clause.
Finally, he signed his name.
After that, he clutched his abdomen, lost in thought for a while.
Peter hesitated to deliver the divorce papers to Cecilia.
Once Cecilia signed the papers and completed the necessary formalities, their marriage would officially end.
Mark lay on the bed, his body covered in sweat due to the pain he was experiencing.
He firmly said, "If you don't go, I won't undergo the surgery.”
Peter wanted to convince Mark otherwise, but the doctor warned, "Mr. Evans' condition is more critical than anything now. Further delay could prove fatal."
With tears in her eyes, Lina said, "Peter, please go and give the divorce papers to Cecilia."
Peter begrudgingly left with the documents.
Mark mumbled, “Tell her not to cry. She always loves to cry.”
Hearing that, Lina couldn't help burst into tears again.
Cecilia arrived back at her apartment.
Needing a respite, she allowed herself and two nannies a break.
Seated alone in the living room, she was lost in thought, her arms wrapped around her knees, shedding tears that she gently wiped away.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
She stiffened and approached the door, hastily wiping her face.
Through the peephole, she saw Peter and a stranger who resembled a lawyer holding a briefcase.
Cecilia was slightly surprised by their presence.
She then realized that they were there to deliver the divorce agreement.
