Chapter 218 Divorce
Chapter 218 Divorce
Half an hour passed, and Evelyn sat down in Garland's chair in frustration and sighed.
"Where on earth did you put it..."
Evelyn pounded her aching shoulder. No matter how hard she tried to recall, she had no recollection of where the book had gone.
There was a knock on the door, and Evelin's body shook violently, and she sat up hurriedly.
"Your Highness, you are in the study."
The maid pushed the door open and saw Evelin sitting at the desk with a surprised look on her face.
"what's up."
Evelyn secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't Garland.
"Your Highness, I'm here to clean the study."
The maid bowed her head respectfully and stood at the door waiting for Evelin's instructions.
"Who asked you to clean the study?"
Evelin frowned and asked in confusion. Garland's study was never open to outsiders. He was the one who cleaned it, and only outsiders could enter with his permission.
"I've finished the work on hand, and since no one is taking care of the study, I thought I'd come and clean it up."
The maid noticed Evelin’s change in mood and spoke carefully, fearing that she had done something wrong.
"No need. Don't enter the study room casually in the future. You can't clean it without your brother's permission."
Evelyn observed the maid's trembling appearance for a while, and realized that she really didn't know the rules and that was why she broke the rules, so she felt relieved.
"Yes!"
The little maid breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she met Evelyn today. If she had met Garland, she might not have been able to escape unscathed.
"Call Yuri over."
"Master Yuri followed Lan-dono to the police station, young prince."
Hearing the little maid's reply, Evelin's heart skipped a beat, and she instantly felt that she was enveloped by depression.
"My Lord, do you have any other instructions?"
Seeing Evelin staring at the table in front of her in a daze, the little maid asked softly.
"Go out."
Evelin waved her hands with empty eyes, her mind in a mess.
"Yes."
The little maid bowed and walked out of the study.
Evelin didn’t even notice when she went out, nor did she realize how long she had been sitting in the study.
She just couldn't help wanting to laugh, to laugh at her own insignificance to Garland.
Even though he knew that Huo Wanqing had done such a cruel thing to him, Garland still went to the police station late at night to deal with these messes for Huo Wanqing.
Sure enough, she was nothing in Garland's heart, not even as heavy as a strand of Huo Wanqing's hair.
Evelin turned around and stood up, and just as she was about to lift her foot to leave, her eyes were attracted by the open corner of the drawer.
She opened the drawer and saw two small red notebooks, which stung her eyes.
Garland is actually married to Huo Wanqing! ?
Evelin picked up the little red book with trembling hands, but when she opened it, she froze in place.
The name written on it was actually her own name, the person who got the marriage certificate with Garland.
After returning to Lanburg, Garland went straight back to the study. When he pushed the door open, he found that the balcony was opened and the air in the room was much fresher than before he went out.
He moved his eyes to the desk and found that the messy documents and books had been sorted and placed on one side.
Garland's eyes darkened, and he immediately stepped forward and opened the drawer to check.
Sure enough, the marriage certificate was missing!
Garland's heart skipped a beat. The anger he had suppressed for so long could no longer be suppressed, and he roared in anger.
"Who entered my study?"
The servants downstairs were all trembling when they heard Garland's roar, and went upstairs cautiously to prepare to receive punishment.
"Is this what you're looking for?"
Suddenly, Evelyn's voice came faintly, and Garland was startled. He saw Evelyn sitting on the sofa in the dark with her arms folded, looking at him.
"you…"
Garland was stunned for a moment and couldn't say anything. Looking at the marriage certificate that Evelin threw on the table, he felt that it was all over.
He had originally planned to let Evelin know about this when the relationship between him and Evelin eased and she slowly began to accept him.
"You got the certificate without telling me. We'll talk about this later."
"Since we are already a legal couple, as my husband, why are you going to the police station late at night for another woman?"
Evelin sneered, her cold pupils containing strong sarcasm.
“Evelin, I didn’t go there for her, I went there because Huo Wanqing had something to tell me.”
Although Garland knew in his heart that he shouldn't have heard the words "legal husband and wife" and "husband", he still felt a strong urge.
How he had wanted to hear those words from Evelyn's mouth.
"Huo Wanqing has done so many evil things, and yet you ran over to her in the middle of the night just because she had something to say to you?"
"You are truly a role model among husbands."
Evelyn laughed out loud, listening to Garland's anxious explanation as if she had heard a huge joke.
"No, she said it was about you, so I..."
"Won't you ask me about my affairs?"
"Garland, please come up with a more decent excuse. Do I look like an easy target?"
Evelyn didn't want to listen to Garland's lies anymore and interrupted him impatiently.
Garland was suddenly speechless. This was the truth. Saying it this way would indeed cause Evelyn to misunderstand even more. In order not to provoke her emotions, Garland decided to skip this topic.
But for Evelyn, Garland's silence was different. She felt that she had hit the nail on the head. His usual silence was a disguised admission of the truth.
"Since you still can't let go of Huo Wanqing, then I'll do you a favor and help you."
"divorce."
After a long silence, Evelyn's next words were like a heavy blow, shocking Garland so much that his pupils widened.
"What did you say!?"
"I said, divorce."
Evelyn stood up and looked into Garland's eyes, her aura no less than his.
"impossible."
Garland restrained his thoughts on explaining that she had misunderstood him and Huo Wanqing, and his eyes were filled with anger at Evelin's announcement of a divorce.
"I have already signed the divorce agreement. Please sign it when you are free. I will come and pick it up in person."
Evelyn did not intend to continue dealing with Garland, so she gently placed a divorce agreement on the table and left.
Rather than worrying about the mess of love, hate, and vengeance between him and Huo Wanqing, she just didn't want to face Garland in his current state.
Because her own heart was in disarray, she actually felt pressured by Garland's urgent pursuit.
"Is marrying me so painful for you?"
Garland suddenly reached out and tightly grasped Evelyn's arm. His voice was too low and hoarse, but it could not hide the underlying loss.
"No blessing to endure."
Evelyn lowered her eyes and glanced coldly at Garland's hand. She uttered four words calmly and opened the door and left.
