Chapter 81 He Lost Her
Stella Grace looked at Frederick Addington unbelievably. “Are you really willing to get a divorce?” Stella Grace asked.
“You have to meet me when I call.” Frederick Addington added.
“What if I’m at work?” Stella Grace asked, she still couldn’t believe it.
He agreed to the divorce so suddenly, without being threatened by her.
“I’ll look for you when you’re not working.” Frederick Addington answered in a deep voice.
“How long will it last?” Stella Grace asked.
“You don’t have the right to negotiate on the timeframe with me. It will last until I get tired of it. Of course, you can also choose not to get a divorce.” Frederick Addington answered while he raised the corners of his lips, but his eyes were dejected. “You’d better agree, because I don’t feel like getting a divorce now.” Frederick Addington added.
“Yes, I agree. Let’s go to the Civil Affairs Department to get a divorce now. I can divorce without taking any possessions. I have a booklet with me.” Stella Grace immediately agreed.
Frederick Addington felt a sense of disappointment beyond words. He walked ahead of her.
Stella Grace followed him closely, as if she was afraid that he would regret his decision.
Frederick Addington went back to his villa to grab his residence booklet and marriage certificate. The journey in the car was creepily quiet. As they drove closer to the Civil Affairs Department, he realized that he did not want a divorce.
After the divorce, she would marry another man, she would become the wife of another man, she would cook for another man and even give birth to a child of another man.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.
“You wouldn’t get married immediately after the divorce, would you?” Frederick Addington asked coldly.
“No, I won’t.” Stella Grace said with certainty.
Frederick Addington glanced at Stella Grace.
She was gentle and quiet. The sunlight shone on her face, the calmness and stillness on her face made his heartthrob a little, rippling again and again.
Stella Grace was very beautiful.
This was also the reason why he decided to marry her instead of Felicia Chuck the first time they met.
He just didn’t expect that she was worthless in Wilson Chuck’s heart.
“What if I agreed not to fool around with other women in the future? Would you still want a divorce?” Frederick Addington asked.
As soon as he asked, he regretted it.
He was always the one who was bold and arrogant, but the words made him seem petty and low.
“Just kidding.” Frederick Addington added.
He regretted even more after his words popped out.
Perhaps Stella Grace would have agreed not to divorce if he hadn’t said that.
Now there was no turning back.
They arrived at the Civil Affairs Department in a while.
He felt a sense of inexplicable panic in his heart as he followed Stella Grace up the stairs.
He wanted to illustrate that he was a good man. “You don’t have to divorce without any possessions. I will transfer the title of the house you’re living in now to you, and I will give you a million dollars. You can have a better life.” Frederick Addington said.
“No, thank you. Your money is yours.” Stella Grace refused.
Frederick Addington glared deeply at Stella Grace.
He hoped that Stella Grace would demand an exorbitant price from him, as it would make him feel a little better.
It could also destroy her image of being pure and elegant.
However, she did not ask for anything. She didn’t even ask for a price for the loss of her youth.
“You’re so stubborn, and it doesn’t benefit you at all. You should accept when someone offers to provide to you, isn’t it?” Frederick Addington asked as he hurriedly walked beside her.
“We always look at problems from our own perspectives, yet we never understand what others truly desire. Thank you for your kindness, Master Addington, but I really don’t need it.” Stella Grace smiled and said.
Master Addington, such an alienated way of addressing him, and it made him uncomfortable.
Frederick Addington handed the marriage certificate to the counter pretending to be outright and indifferent. “We want to file for a divorce.” Frederick Addington said.
“Is there a divorce agreement?” The staff asked.
“No, I will divorce without any possessions.” Stella Grace said softly.
The staff glanced at Stella Grace strangely, and then at Frederick Addington.
Stella Grace looked neat and clean without makeup. She was soft, her eyes were a little red and swollen, and she was calm.
On the other hand, Frederick Addington tightened his brows, he seemed a little fretful.
He felt heartbroken while staring at their marriage certificate, as if there was a tight pinch on his heart.
He didn’t want a divorce.
His mind and heart were constantly flashing the same idea, but his body seemed to freeze.
The staff handed out several documents to them. “Please sign on the papers. Think carefully before you sign them. The divorce certificate will be ready within half an hour, and you will be officially divorced.” The staff reminded them.
Stella Grace grabbed the papers and filled in her name without hesitation.
Frederick Addington felt uneasy looking at her while she signed the papers without a sweat. He subsequently filled in his name on the papers.
Stella Grace handed the papers to the staff once she was done.
Frederick Addington hesitated.
“Do you want to hand over the papers?” The staff asked Frederick Addington.
He handed over the papers, his mind was blank and he couldn’t think.
He witnessed the staff stamping on the papers submitted. “Bang, bang, bang, bang!” The sound of every stamp punched into his heart.
He was officially divorced from Stella Grace.
“Would you like to get a drink? It will take some time to get the divorce certificate anyway.” Frederick Addington said to Stella Grace gently.
Stella Grace shook her head.
“Please pay this amount before you go,” the staff said.
“Okay, how much is it?” Stella Grace asked as she rummaged through her purse.
“I’ll pay for it.” Frederick Addington said while he took out a black credit card from his wallet and handed it to the staff.
The staff rolled his eyes at Frederick Addington. “Ten dollars,” the staff said.
Stella Grace handed a ten-dollar bill to the staff.
Frederick Addington felt uncomfortable.
He was generous to the other women. He bought bags, luxury cars, villas, and jewelry, but he had never bought anything expensive for Stella Grace. The most expensive thing he bought for her was the roses that had been thrown into the trash can.
Oh, he bought her a dress, shoes and earrings before.
Those were not expensive things.
Would Stella still wear them in the future?
“Here’s your marriage certificate that has been made invalid, and your divorce certificate,” The staff said as he handed over the certificates to them.
Frederick Addington was brought back to his senses. He felt miserable looking at their divorce certificate. “It’s so cheap to get a divorce. No wonder so many people are getting divorced. You should charge a higher fee.” Frederick Addington said.
The staff ignored him.
Stella Grace glanced at the divorce certificate. She felt like she was in a dream.
She was finally divorced. She finally regained her freedom.
She kept the marriage certificate and divorce certificate in her bag and walked out.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Frederick Addington wanted to stop her, but he choked with his own words.
He threw the invalid marriage certificate and divorce certificate into the trash can, walked out, and smoked a few cigarettes in the car.
He recalled that when he first met Stella Grace, she was still a student. She walked out of the campus in a sky blue dress. She was extremely beautiful, every step she took was elegant, yet there was a sense of pride and arrogance in her.
He chose her because of her arrogance.
Half an hour later, Frederick Addington picked up the invalid marriage certificate from the trash can and opened it.
Stella Grace was frowning slightly in the photo, she pursed her lips, but her eyes were bright and clear, full of hope and charm. Each of her facial features were beautiful and attractive… But he lost her.
He had finally lost her.
