While in the car, Lenora said, "You should be able to tell from Grandpa's attitude that he's strongly against our divorce. What do you plan to do next?"
Zachary looked out the window and sighed. "We can get the divorce certificate first, keep it from him, and tell him slowly in the future."
Indeed, he still made the same choice, showing no intention of changing at all.
Even if Gerald spoke harshly to him, even if he had to deceive and defy Gerald, he'd still do

Lenora's breath was heavy. Each inhalation felt like a knife cut to her.
She lowered her gaze, silently nodding her head. In a muted voice, she asked, "All right, when are we going to get the divorce certificate?"
Zachary flipped through his schedule on his phone. "I'm quite busy these days. Let's wait until next Monday."
"All right."
Seeing Lenora's straightforward response, Zachary pursed his lips and glanced at her a few times.
To speak impartially, Lenora was very beautiful.
She had a pair of peach blossom eyes, bright and expressive. At times gentle, at times sharp, their gentleness held a kind of magic that immersed people in it. Meanwhile, their sharpness. possessed the cutting edge of a blade, impossible to ignore.
She had a classic oval face with smooth and elegant lines. Her nose was small yet firm, and her lips were small but plump. When she smiled, two tiny dimples would appear, adding a touch of cuteness to her countenance.
Her figure was warm, cool, flexible, and beautiful. She had a strong sense of self-discipline, setting aside a few days each week to practice yoga after work.

Beyond those external conditions, her abilities were also noteworthy. During her university years, she excelled academically, earning both a national scholarship and a chancellor's scholarship. She even participated in a national Uprian competition, securing an opportunity for a government-sponsored study abroad program. In her work, she managed everything meticulously, propelling the development of MQ beyond his expectations.
There was no way a woman like her wouldn't have any men who were fond of her.
After the divorce, who knew who she would be with?
Out of the blue. Zachary asked, "Do you have someone you like?"
Lenora's heart skipped a beat as she glanced at Zachary. "Yes."
She had been in love with the man before her for ten years.
Back then, she had recently lost her father and had just arrived at the Fuller residence, feeling nervous and apprehensive.
Reflecting on that moment, Lenora still found the scene vivid in her mind.
She was filled with self-doubt, and she was sensitive and timid.
Living dependent on others, she held a deeply pessimistic view of life. However, at that moment, a figure suddenly burst into her life. On the calm, dark soil of her soul, he cast a warm and dazzling ray of sunshine. From then on, her feelings for him took root and grew deep. She was constantly striving, following in his footsteps, hoping to get closer and closer to him, dreaming of the day she could stand by his side.
However, his heart was committed elsewhere, never pausing for her. Even if she managed to have him, in the end, she was bound to lose him Perhaps it was fate, and that she was destined to be alone.

For some reason, Zachary really wanted to hear hat answer.
Lenora gently shook her head. "No, he doesn't like me. He has someone he likes, someone he's liked for many years."

Zachary felt even more uncomfortable inside. "If he doesn't like you, why do you still like him?"
With a self-deprecating smile, Lenora asked, "Why so many questions?"
Zachary paused slightly, a hint of melancho
