Chapter 946
âEx-wife?!â Vicky silently mouthed as she slammed her fist onto the table, causing the steaming hot tea
to spill onto the table.
The scalding liquid grazed her hand, leaving a reddened patch on her fair and delicate palm.
âAre you okay?â The man quickly stood up.
At the same time, a voice unfamiliar to Vicky, that of a middle-aged man, sounded from the listening
device.
âWe all know that Tyler used to be married. The reason weâre here today is to show that we are willing
to accept his past. What I want to know is⦠When will your side of the matter be settled?â
âYes.â The voice of an unfamiliar middle-aged woman chimed in, âWhen will this marriage finally end?â
âSoon. Tyler has already drafted the divorce agreement,â Orion said.
âThat woman is nothing more than a jumped-up nobody. How could she ever compare to my boy?
Donât worry, this marriage will definitely be over in the near future,â Valencia added.
Still, there seemed to be lingering doubt from the other side. âAurora canât be with Tyler indefinitely only
to be labeled as the homewrecker in the end, right? We need to know a
precise timeline so we can prepare ourselves.â
Orion chuckled. âAt the latest, it will be finalized this month. Any qualms?â
âAre you certain?â The other side questioned.
Valencia spoke up, âTyler, you did agree to go through with it, didnât you?â
After a few seconds of silence, a cold and deep voice came through the device. âYes.â
Before this moment, if there was still a glimmer of hope lingering in Vickyâs heart regarding Tyler, it had
now completely extinguished after that simple confirmation.
âHe admitted it,â Vicky thought. âHe didnât even hesitate. He really admitted it.â
Vicky suddenly felt like a fool; a complete and utter joke.
He had already started meeting potential matches, yet she was unwilling to believe he would stoop to
such actions. She had even held a slight expectation for him.
At that moment, the man next to her pressed the button, summoning a waiter with a first aid kit. The
waiter quickly arrived, bringing back the kit in just a matter of minutes.
âYou burned yourself,â the man said. âIt needs to be bandaged to prevent an infection.â
Vicky remained dazed and oblivious to her scalding wound. Her gaze was fixated on the listening
device as the sounds of laughter and conversation buzzed.
The young ladyâs father said, âAurora honey, why are you sitting so far away? Come sit next to Tyler.â
âPour another glass of wine for Mister and Missus Hart,â the mother said.
Judging from the conversation so far, it became clear to her that it was an official meeting for the two
families that planned to be united through marriage.
When Vicky failed to respond, the man next to her sighed and opened the first aid kit to tend to her
hand.
Orion and Valencia did not stay for long and excused themselves soon after; so did the young ladyâs
parents.
Anyone could tell that they were merely trying to give Tyler and the young lady time to spend alone.
Once the parents left, the atmosphere of the room fell silent.
Sometime later, Aurora spoke up sheepishly, âMister Hart, what would you like to eat? Letâs order
something, shall we?â
âSure,â Tyler responded coldly.
Aurora called the waiter in to order a few dishes.
