Circice Agreement,

Chuck was confused. “Mr. Winston, there’s still a month left until your divorce with Marguerite la finalized. Why are you preparing this agreement to eady? Youssé acting as if the councit won’t process it”

Frederick walked over to the floor–to–ceiling window, lighting a cigar in his agitation, “Il doesn’t matter Let’s get the property division sorted out early if she’s riot satisfied she’ll have enough time to consider”

Chuck held the agreement, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Everyone knew about the hidden affection Mr. Winston held for Marguerite. Even when Marguerite was pregnant with another man’s child, Mr. Winston still considered her feelings

Just a quick scan revealed several astronomical figures on the agreement, enough for Marguerite to live a life of luxury for generations

Chuck could see that Mr Winston didn’t want Marguerite to be helpless after their divorce. And property was the best way to provide a wornan with a sense of security.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

-If he was so reluctant to let go of Marguente, wouldn’t it be better not to divorce her?

Chuck swallowed and gathered his courage to ask, “Mr. Winston, is it impossible that you guys don’t get a divorce?”

“No, it’s impossible.”

“Mr Winston, may I be so bold as to ask why?”

Frederick exhaled a ring of smoke from his sexy lips. His answer was straightforward and irrefutable, “Yuna is pregnant.”

Upon heanng this, Chuck was dumbfounded and rendered speechless.

The baby she camed was Mr. Winston’s blood, while the child in Marguente’s womb belonged to another man. Any person could tell which was more important

Chuck sighed and said no more, respectfully retreating.

Following Mr. Winston’s instructions, he took the divorce agreement directly to Marguerite at Sapphire Valley Estates.

After briefly explaining his purpose, Marguerite signed her name without even looking at the agreement.

Her brisk action surprised Chuck. Doesn’t she need to think about it?

“Marguente, why don’t you take another look at the agreement? There’s still a month left. If there’s anything you want to add, I’ll do my best to negotiate with Mr

Winston.”

Marguerite shook her head. “It’s okay, Chuck. The marriage has to end anyway, so what’s written in the agreement doesn’t matter”

Ever since she had met Jocelyn, she knew this day would come

But she didn’t expect it to come so soon.

She had just seen him in the morning, and by the afternoon, the divorce agreement had arrived.

She signed her name and handed the agreement back to Chuck. Seeing him still standing there, she asked, “Is there anything else? Did he ask you to pass on a message?”

Chuck studied Marguente’s expression, “Mr Winston just sent a message. He wants you to come back to work at the company He’s reinstating the Polar Radiance perfume project and wants you to be in charge. He said it’s a form of compensation.”

Compensation? Why does everyone think she needs compensation?

She wasn’t as fragile as they thought. In this relationship, she hadn’t suffered any real loss.

On the contrary, her marriage to Frederick had taken her into a world she would never have accessed otherwise.

An upper class society she would never have known

For her, it was an extraordinary experience. Although it only lasted for three short months, it was enough to last her a
