After lunch, Aiden got to work on his homework, Freya went back to her writing, and Louis returned to handling his own affairs. Everyone was busy with their own tasks.

Aiden had only come home for the weekend. He stayed for one more day, and by the third day, he was sent back to school. Watching that process gave Freya a deeper understanding of what life was like for kids in wealthy families. Once you entered a private elite academy, the workload was insane. Homework was only the beginning–there were all kinds of other requirements on top of it. It was honestly impressive how a kid could keep up with all of it.

But with Aiden gone, it was time to deal with something else.

On Monday night, Louis came home early to have dinner. Freya had gone all out cooking a full spread. As they ate, she quietly debated her decision in her mind over and over until she finally worked up the courage to speak.

“Let’s get a divorce.”

Louis froze with his fork in hand, his brows furrowed, thinking he must’ve heard wrong.

“What did you just say?”

“I said, let’s get a divorce.”

“You’re just a decent guy. You made a promise to your grandpa to take care of me, so of course you wouldn’t treat me like a burden. But let’s be real–if your grandpa hadn’t forced this match, there’s no way we’d have ever ended up together. We live completely different lives, we’ve got totally different worldviews, and I just don’t believe people from vastly different backgrounds can stay in love forever. And anyway… we’re not even in love.”

“You already know my project’s about to launch. Once the money starts coming in, you really don’t mind missing out on all that in a divorce?” His gaze was deep and unreadable.

“I already spent way more of your money than I should’ve. If we get divorced, the apartment goes to you, all the money in the house goes to you–I’ll just keep thirty thousand as emergency funds. I’m earning now, so life won’t be that bad. Before I met you and your grandpa, this is exactly the kind of life I lived. I’m just going back to what’s normal for me.”

Her words were sincere. She met his eyes without hesitation, as if she truly didn’t care at all about the wealth that was just around the corner. Louis studied her, and she let him, standing firm under his gaze–clear–eyed and steady, like a mirror reflecting the truth.
