Chapter 7 Go Different Ways

• Seraphina ultimately didn't throw that punch.
• Today, she was here for a divorce. That was more important than anything else. There was no need to stir up any trouble before that.
• "Alright, Jessica. Apologize to Seraphina now!" Orion's expression turned a little more serious.
• "I'm sorry, Seraphina. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me," Jessica said softly.
• Seraphina sneered coldly, "Hahaha!"
• She didn't believe Jessica's harmless facade for a second.
• If Seraphina hadn't exposed her today, she was certain that Jessica would have cut her kidney and fed it to the dogs.
• Only Orion was foolish enough to believe her without question.
• However, all of this was soon going to be irrelevant. As long as she signed the divorce papers, Jessica and Orion could do whatever they wanted for all she cared.
• "Alright, Orion, since Jessica seems to have miraculously recovered, let's talk about us now." With that, Seraphina tossed the divorce papers in front of Orion.
• "Here are the divorce papers. Once you sign them, we'll go our separate ways. Don't worry, I'm not asking for a penny. You don't have to worry about me taking advantage of you."
• Orion's already dark face grew even darker as he looked at the divorce papers in front of him. He asked, "Seraphina, are you sure about this?"
• Despite showing a clear preference for Jessica since she arrived, which led to Seraphina's misunderstandings, Orion never actually intended to divorce her.
• Seraphina had been a wonderful wife. Orion noticed all she had done for him over the years.
• Therefore, even though everyone around him called her a gold-digger, he still sent her money regularly.
• "I'm very sure," Seraphina said firmly. "I'm done living like a slave in your house. Besides, isn't it your mother and the rest of your family's wish for me to leave?"
• The Droses had always looked down on Seraphina. Theresa had even introduced Orion to other women more than once, but he had refused each time.
• He didn't see any reason to leave Seraphina—she hadn't done anything wrong.
• Orion was busy with work and rarely home, so he hadn't noticed how Seraphina was mistreated.
• Seraphina never complained to him, and his mother certainly wouldn't tell him.
• Was Seraphina really this disappointed in their marriage already, even before today?
• Orion remained silent for a moment before agreeing, "Fine, I'll sign."
• It was the best decision for both of them. Seraphina wouldn't have to endure the torment from his family any longer, and they could find someone they deemed suitable—a princess, the daughter of a Forbes-listed billionaire, or the daughter of some business partner.
• It wouldn't be Seraphina, though. Although she wasn't the gold-digger everyone thought she was.
• Orion picked up the pen and signed his name. His hand trembled slightly as he did, betraying the turmoil in his heart.
• Seraphina watched him sign, and she felt nothing inside. She had expected this outcome. She calmly took the signed papers, glanced at them, and slipped them into her bag.
• "Well, since everything's done, I'll take my leave." With that, she turned and walked toward the door.
• As Orion watched her leave, an inexplicable sense of loss welled up inside him.
• Jessica, on the other hand, flickered with a hint of smugness as she watched Seraphina leave. She had finally driven that eyesore out. Now, it was just going to be her and Orion in this house.
• Her joy didn't last long. When she looked up at Orion, she noticed his face was unusually grim. His expression was so dark that it frightened her.
• "Jessica, you've really let me down," Orion said coldly.
• With that, he didn't linger any longer and walked out of the hospital room.
• At the hospital entrance, Seraphina was just about to look for Sivir. A warm hug suddenly enveloped her. "Seraphina! Congratulations on finally getting rid of that sc*mbag!"
• "Olivia!" Seraphina exclaimed in surprise as she saw the girl before her. "Long time no see!"
• Olivia and Seraphina had been close friends since they were little. Olivia had always been vocal about her disapproval of Seraphina's marriage. Aside from the Crosses, Olivia was the most supportive of Seraphina divorcing Orion.
• Since Seraphina's marriage, the two hadn't been in touch much. Seeing her old friend again, Seraphina couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
• After they spun around in a joyful hug, Seraphina asked, "By the way, what brings you here?"
• "I rushed over after Sivir informed me that you were getting a divorce from that sc*mbag today." Olivia glanced at Sivir, who stood not far away, and answered.
• "Sivir?" Seraphina looked at Olivia with a teasing gleam in her eye.
• She didn't remember Sivir and Olivia having any interactions before.
• Plus, Sivir wasn't the type to share personal details. It seems like a lot has happened in her years with the Droses.
• Olivia blushed slightly under Seraphina's teasing gaze.
• Sivir walked over and asked, "Seraphina, are we heading home now?"
• "No." Seraphina shook her head and said, "I still have a few personal belongings to pick up at the Droses."
• She had left in such a hurry yesterday that she hadn't taken any luggage with her. Today, Seraphina needed to gather some clothes and important documents. As for everything else, she didn't care. Theresa would probably throw them out anyway.
