Chapter 520
In her most helpless moment, he had watched indifferently.
It was at that moment that she awoke.
Her self-conceited infatuation was but an illusory dream.
True love should not be so dark and cold.
The air was quiet for a long time, then Madeline spoke again, “Jeremy, if you really want to apologize to me, then sign our divorce papers as soon as possible.”
Hearing the word divorce again, Jeremy felt as if he had fallen into the abyss once more.
He saw the determination in Madeline’s eyes. She would never look at him with that kind of loving and admiring look anymore.
She would never call him ‘Jeremy’ softly again.
This loss was caused by him.
Seeing Jeremy silent, Madeline made her final decision. “I’ll wait for you to sign our divorce at the law firm tomorrow. If you still have any conscience at all, give me custody of Jackson. If you refuse, I will fight till the end.”
Hearing these words, the corners of Jeremy’s lips twitched as he sobbed quietly.
He suppressed the painful emotions, raised his eyes, and smiled. “Will you really be happy if you’re divorced from me?”
“Yes.”
Receiving her answer without hesitation, Jeremy felt a fierce stab in his heart.
After a few seconds of silence, he nodded. “Very well. I’ll fulfill your wish and won’t fight you for Jack’s custody.”
She had thought that Jeremy would continue to embarrass her. She did not think he would promise her so decisively.
Madeline looked at Jeremy questioningly but saw him smiling at her. “Linnie, if you could really be happy with this, then I accept.”
Madeline shook her head. “The timing is just right. The lawyer is already here.”
“Yeah.” He nodded, Jeremy’s gaze sinking as Madeline turned to lead the way.
After entering the lawyer’s office and reading the divorce agreement in front of him, he saw that Madeline had already signed it decisively.
Jeremy held the pen, looked back at Madeline. “Linnie.”
He suddenly called out her name softly. Madeline turned to look at him. “Do you have any more requests?”
“I wish you happiness.” He blessed her painfully.
Madeline looked at him with some surprise in her eyes, but then she saw Jeremy curl his lips into a smile.
“I’ve given you too much pain in this life and no longer have the ability to give you happiness. I wish you a new life and all the happiness you want after leaving me.”
As his voice fell, Jeremy raised his hand and signed his name in the lower right corner of the divorce agreement.
