Chapter 65

“Pfft…” Alice couldn’t help but laugh as she thought about the CEO in the rumors. She shook her head and said, “Isn’t he with Freddie King?”

“You two can have a marriage of convenience! My brother is not good at anything else, but he has a good character and is more magnanimous than your husband. If you marry him, not only will you be rich, but no one will dare to bully you.”

Alice smiled and refused after she heard what Josh said. “I’m not interested in getting him to remarry.

Let him remain in love with Freddie!”

Just as the two of them were on the phone, a taxi appeared by the roadside.

Then, Daniel, who was wearing a black suit, walked out of the car.

Alice’s expression changed the moment she saw Daniel. “Let’s not talk about that for now. He’s here.”

After hanging up, Alice walked toward Daniel. “There aren’t many people today. Let’s go and submit the information first.”

Daniel was silent. He stared at Alice with a heavy gaze and could not say a word for a long time.

Seeing this, Alice blinked repeatedly. She asked, “What’s wrong?”

Daniel coughed twice and looked troubled. “I lost the marriage license. We can’t get a divorce today.”

Alice was stunned. After taking a few seconds to absorb what Daniel said, she said, “Then let’s go in and submit another application for the marriage license. The procedure will be the same after we get the new license.”

When Daniel heard this, he clenched his fists tightly and could not say a word.

Alice fixed her gaze on him. “You didn’t bring your passport?”

Daniel nodded expressionlessly. “I didn’t bring it. Maybe another day.”

Alice had been a little suspicious when Daniel said that he lost the marriage license. She used this moment to probe further using his passport as the reason, yet the other party said that they should do this another day. How would Alice not understand what was going on?

It meant that Daniel had gone back on his word.

However, he had said last night that whoever did not come to the City Hall for the divorce would be struck by lightning. He had made a solemn vow. Why did he change his mind today?

“There’s a young girl in our production team who knows the staff here. We can hand in the information first and the system will start the procedure.” Alice looked at the man.

“After all, there’s still a cooling-off period for divorce. We have to apply first.”

With that, Daniel saw Alice turn around and walk toward the door of the City Hall.

Daniel clenched his fists tightly and stared blankly at the girl’s back.

He had been raised as an heir since he was young. Aside from his parents and family, he had never lowered his head to anyone, let alone apologized.

Although he had misunderstood Alice this time, it was too difficult for him to apologize.

At this moment, Marie, who was sitting in the car, saw that her grandson did not react for a long time.

Her granddaughter-in-law was about to go into the city hall. She was so angry that she clenched her fists.

Then, she immediately changed into the patched clothes she had found at the last minute and rushed out of the car. She came to Daniel’s side angrily.

She slapped Daniel hard on the back. “You ba stard, return my granddaughter-in-law! Return my granddaughter-in-law!”

Alice was about to enter the City Hall when she suddenly heard the commotion. She could not help but turn around.

It would have been better if she hadn’t seen it. She was shocked when she saw what was going on.

There was an old lady hitting Daniel again.

Moreover, she kept talking about her granddaughter-in-law…

“Is she Daniel’s grandmother?” Alice thought.

She immediately confirmed her guess when she noticed Marie’s patched clothes.

She took a deep breath. All she could do was walk over and hold Marie’s arm. “Madam, don’t be angry… Don’t hit him first.”

“Aiyo! Alice, my granddaughter-in-law!” Marie held Alice’s hand and did not let go.

Then, she said with tears in his eyes, “I haven’t even officially met you yet. Why don’t you want Daniel?

I won’t be able to live if you don’t want Daniel!”

“Madam, calm down. It’s not that I don’t want Daniel. It’s just that we’re really not compatible.” Alice felt a little uncomfortable when she saw the old woman crying.

When she was young, the only person in the Doyle family who had treated her the best was her grandmother. She had a good impression of people of Marie’s age and would subconsciously feel sorry for her.

“That means Daniel doesn’t know what’s good for him!” Marie said as she raised her leg and kicked Daniel.
