She motioned for a servant to bring in a divorce agreement, signed a few lines, and tossed it in front of me.
"From today on, you are no longer a member of the Glover family. I’ll remove Lester’s name from the family tree. Only the child between Russell and me deserves to be the Glover family’s eldest son!"

"Kendra, Lester is truly gone! He shares your blood. Without the family tree, he’s just a lonely spirit—helpless and open to being mistreated by anyone. Even if I don’t believe in ghosts or gods, I can’t let him rest in peace after all this!"

You’re trying to stop Kendra, aren’t you? You want to use Lester against me, don’t you? You’ve already broken one of my legs; do you want to break the other one?"
