Chapter 2

"This is the divorce agreement."

"Sign it."

The lamplight flickered, making my thoughts blur.

The man standing opposite me lowered his eyes, hiding the coldness in them.

"James."

"Don't do this."

I tried to grab his hand.

His veins pulsed as he quickly pulled away.

This was one hour and forty-one minutes into my rebirth.

I suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

James had finally discovered that I was a bad woman who had cheated him out of his money and feelings.

He didn't want me anymore.
