FreeNovelThe only thing he saw in a woman crying was distraction and annoyance.
He decided to get engaged to Charlotte simply because he wanted to take his responsibility.
However, when he saw Joyce shedding tears silently in front of him, the scene deeply shocked him and deeply touched him.
He was obviously slapped, but he did not get angry at all.
He even wanted to say something to comfort her, but with his pride, he simply could not allow himself to say any words of apology.
His eyebrows furrowed. Without saying a word, he straightened his clothes, buttoned his shirt, fastened his belt and re-tied his tie.
Except for screases in his expensive shirt, it was as if what had just happened had never happened.
He raised his wrist to check his watch. He frowned slightly. It was after 11:30. Damn, the engagement ceremony downstairs must
have been postponed, and everyone was waiting for him.

He looked at his phone again. He had turned the silent mode because he had a headache and didn't want to be disturbed.
Sure enough, there were hundreds of missed calls on his phone, and countless messages, all asking where he was and urging him
to cback.
He frowned deeply and sent a quick message back to Jacqueline, "Wait another ten minutes."
And by this time, Joyce had already put on her own clothes.

He glanced over, pulled out snapkins, and reached out to wipe her tears for her.
As if frightened, she cowered back as if he was sbeast that would strike her again.

He finally convinced himself that Joyce was just a gold-digging heartthrob, and that he could no longer be bewitched by her, no
matter how heart-wrenching she looked at the moment, and no matter how intense the sensual stimulation she brought him. He
simply could not allow himself to be bewitched and influenced by this woman again.
Joyce picked up the pen on the table and quickly signed her name. He had not signed his name, but she didn't care. After she was
done, she simply tossed the pen onto the table.
Since the divorce papers were signed, he would never have anything to do with her again.

Hadn't she been humiliated enough by him? The longer she stayed here, the more humiliated she felt.
There were two divorce certificates underneath the file, and she drew one of them away. After that, she stood up hastily, turned
around and left the room. She could not bear it to stay a minute longer.
"Wait..."
Luther just wanted to say something, but unfortunately Joyce had already darted out the door, and with a "bang", she heavily
slammed the door close.
He actually wanted to say that the divorce certificates still needed to be signed by the judge before they becvalid.
On second thought, however.
Forget it, anyway, the judge had signed the divorce papers and she had just also signed them. With his signature, these papers
would be valid. They could ask the judge to sign on their divorce certificate later.
