Xavier glanced over the divorce agreement. His dark eyes briefly scanned the words.

He let out an incredulous laugh, filling the empty space where his heart had once ached. Now, all that's left was

a sense of bitter irony.

"Do you really think this will makerush to bail Hayden out? Does everyone in your family ever use their

brains?"

Lily looked at him, bewildered. "This has nothing to do with Hayden."

Xavier bent down and picked up the divorce agreement, flipping a couple of pages until he reached the section

on asset division.

The last tthey had considered a divorce, it didn't state this part. If they had gone through with it, Lily would

have left with nothing. Now, she was asking for five million.

He scoffed and tossed the papers on the table. "Trying a new tactic, huh? When will this end? What do you really

want this time?"

"It's not as complicated as you think. I just want a divorce. Nothing more and nothing less."

Lily hated how he always twisted her intentions. He always labeled them as "unreasonable demands" or

assumed she was scheming She simply wanted to be free of this marriage.

"Cut the act, Lily. It's getting old," he said. He pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

He put one between his teeth and lit it.

The small flilluminated his sharp features and highlighted the fine lines around his eyes.

He had that undeniable allure of a man in his prime. For a moment, the sight of him made Lily's heart ache.

"I don't want to spend the rest of my life in a marriage devoid of love! | want-"

She wanted his love, but she knew he wouldn't give it.

Admitting that would only deepen her humiliation.

Xavier didn't care what she wanted. He was only interested in proving that she had sulterior motive.

With a flick of his fingers, he waved away the swirling smoke around him and stubbed out the cigarette. It was

only half-smoked.

"Just say what you really want. Stop acting like I'm the one who owes you something. Who are you trying to

fool?"

He tossed the divorce agreement into the trash and spared her a dismissive glance before striding toward the

door.

"I'll be out of town for a couple of days. Use that tto reflect. When | get back, you'd better be back to your

old self."

His voice echoed away. It got swallowed by the sound of the door closing behind him.

The night stretched on. The cold wind cut through the darkness and took sof Xavier's frustration with it.

Hayden had just lost in court, and Lily was undoubtedly upset. She was likely planning soutrageous

demand.

If he refused, she would probably use Bobby's old tricks to harass him.

Better to leave for a while and let her cool off, he thought. Maybe by the the returned, he hoped that she

would be ready to talk reasonably without pushing too far. He had a strict rule: once, twice, but never a third

time. If he actually signed those divorce agreements, she would likely end up sobbing, lost, and desperate.

Then she would ccrawling back while begging for his forgiveness. What was the point?

Before getting into his car, Xavier couldn't resist glancing back inside.

The house was brightly lit but felt emptier than ever. There stood Lily, slender and motionless.

He got into his Maybach and drove away.

Lily didn't run after him. Instead, she

He hadn't really looked at her for the past two years, so he didn't understand her at all.

She knew this divorce would be a struggle. It would be a battle drawn out over time.

So, she resolved to wait for Xavier to cto her.

The last tshe left, she had packed so hastily that she hadn't taken much with her.

This time, she carefully packed everything she could.

On the nightstand was a photo of her and Xavier.
