What if Brian refused to divorce Rosalynn?

Would all her efforts be in vain?

On second thought, many mistresses had successfully dethroned the legitimate wives.

She needed to find a way to eliminate Rosalynn.

The next day, Rosalynn's brow furrowed. The staff of the city hall persistently tried to sway her and Brian.

A mandatory reflection period before the divorce could proceed?

Had divorce procedures become so convoluted?

Exiting the clerk's office, Rosalynn turned her gaze onto Brian.

“As the president of Hughes Group, surely you could mobilize your resources to expedite this process?"

Clad in a crisp black shirt and matching suit trousers, Brian exuded an air of frigid nobility.

“Rosalynn, I am a law-abiding citizen. Everything must be carried out in accordance with the relevant rules and regulations."

A law-abiding citizen?

He hadn't even bothered to show up for their own wedding.

Rosalynn mentally berated him.

“Aren't you worried about the potential repercussions if you refuse to proceed with the divorce? For instance, I could expose our marriage to the public. You are the most influential man in Wragos. Surely it wouldn't reflect well on your company's reputation if word were to spread about your extramarital affairs?"

Brian gazed at her, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.

"Suit yourself. But remember, you're my wife. If Hughes Group loses money due to any scandal, it affects your wealth as well."

Rosalynn fell silent.

Brian stared into her eyes, taunting, “What's the matter? Lost for words? Are you so intent on teaching me a lesson? Why not come over to my place tonight? I‘11 let you have your way.”

Rosalynn remained wordless.

His thoughts were still on intimacy at a time like this.

All she desired now was to distance herself from him.
