Once he signed the contract, it was given back to Kiara. His signature looked smooth and proper.
Kiara closed it and smiled faintly. “Great. Now we truly owe nothing to each other.”
When Hugo heard that, he frowned a little and said, “Kiara, I don’t like that sentence. Don’t say it again in the future.”

After Hugo walked away, Kiara called the attorney to collect the divorce agreement.
The lawyer said the steps were already underway and had requested a faster process for her. It would finish in fifteen days.
Fifteen days. After another fifteen days, she could go.
Those wronged days. She did not want to bear even a single day more!
