Chapter 121

After regaining her composure, Suzanne interjected firmly. “That’s enough, Nathan. We’ve already talked things through. Let’s just put an end to this fruitless marriage.”

Nathan was taken aback by her words, feeling as though his heart had been wrenched from his chest.

Suppressing his emotions with a forced smirk, he approached the table and picked up the divorce settlement agreement.

As he skimmed through the document, Suzanne quietly placed a black pen on the table and suggested, “Once you’ve signed and submitted this, let’s get a divorce certificate at the city hall.

“I don’t want to prolong this any further, especially since I’m moving to another city.”

Nathan couldn’t believe Suzanne was planning to start anew in a different city. Was she truly set on making a clean break from him?

Frustration boiled within Nathan as he flipped through the agreement, yet he couldn’t bring himself to read a single word.

With a grumpy tone, he tossed the papers back onto the table and declared, “What’s written here is unacceptable. It needs to be

redrafted.”

Suzanne looked up at him in puzzlement. “What’s wrong with it? We don’t have children to consider, and I’ve stated that I don’t want any financial support. The clauses in this agreement favor you. What exactly are you unhappy with?”

Narrowing his eyes, Nathan asserted firmly, “That’s exactly it. If

people find out I didn’t provide anything for my ex-wife, what will they

think ofas a man?”

Suzanne was speechless. She hadn’t anticipated his concern for his reputation and image.

After a brief silence, she relented. “Fine. Just givesmoney

then.”

However, Nathan seized her wrist and yanked her up from the wicker chair. He snarled, “Are you so eager to divorce me?”

Suzanne found his reaction ridiculous.

Considering his evident affection for Sally and the message he had sent Suzanne, it seemed unmistakable that he intended to end his marriage. Or was he attempting to openly showcase his affection for Sally?

Growing distressed at the thought, Suzanne met Nathan’s gaze with determination and declared, “You might be right about that.”

Nathan felt a sharp pang in his chest as her words struck him. Just then, his phone abruptly rang.

He released his grip on Suzanne and pulled out his phone. Glancing at the caller ID, he turned away to take the call.

“We’ve got a major issue, Mr. Morrison! The weapons and gears prepared for the special forces have been stolen!” Cole’s voice sounded anxious on the other end of the line.

When Nathan heard the news, his face turned dark. He swiftly ended the call and headed towards the door.

Suzanne, though bewildered, kept her eyes fixed on him. Her heart sank with each step he took. Just as Nathan reached for the door handle, he halted abruptly and turned back to face Suzanne.

He was accustomed to handling things independently and not having

to justify his actions to anyone. Yet, he now worried that Suzanne might misconstrue his sudden departure.

“I have to leave. There’s an emergency at the camp. We can discuss the divorce at a later time,” he stated curtly. With that, he opened the door and exited the room.

As the door closed behind him, Suzanne sank into the chair and

closed her weary eyes. Her heart throbbed painfully as if pricked by a

thorn.

She had never imagined that seeking a divorce would be so emotionally taxing

Despite knowing that Nathan didn’t love her, their marriage persisted

due to relentless circumstances, leaving her trapped in a deteriorating relationship.
