Chapter 222 Walking Away

Auteur: J.J. Twelve
'Smack!' Evan slapped Hazel's hand away before she could reach him.

Hazel froze.

Roxanne and Anya were also stunned as they stared at the scene across the street.

Anya choked on her coffee and spat it out, her eyes widening in shock. 'No way! Did Evan really reject Hazel? Did that actually happen? I can't believe it.'

Hazel didn't react immediately.

When his actions finally sank in, her expression twisted with anger and disbelief, mixed with a trace of bitter amusement.

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 223 Who's Really Afraid?

    Hazel balled her fists, willing herself to keep her gaze fixed forward. 'What if he sees me turn around and get it into his head that I'm regretting my decision? No. He needs to know exactly where he stands. How dare he try to threaten me! He's nothing without me. Does he really think waving divorce in my face will scare me? 'Please. He's the one who's afraid of the divorce.' Meanwhile, Evan's expression darkened. The divorce was still up in the air, gnawing at him more than he would ever confess. What stung most was Hazel's silence about why she summoned him to the courthouse. He couldn't believe that he actually thought she was finally ready to end it all. That fragile hope had gone up in smoke in the face of her series of actions. Now, his hopes and dreams of freedom lay shattered on the pavement. Still, he shoved the thought aside. He figured he could afford to be a little more patient as there were only five days left in the cooling-off period. Besides, he had alread

    'Smack!' Evan slapped Hazel's hand away before she could reach him. Hazel froze. Roxanne and Anya were also stunned as they stared at the scene across the street. Anya choked on her coffee and spat it out, her eyes widening in shock. 'No way! Did Evan really reject Hazel? Did that actually happen? I can't believe it.' Hazel didn't react immediately. When his actions finally sank in, her expression twisted with anger and disbelief, mixed with a trace of bitter amusement. "I make you sick?" she asked slowly, her finger pointing at herself with disbelief in her eyes. "I disgust you?" Those words had clearly struck a nerve. "Yes," Evan answered flatly. "You've dragged this divorce out way longer than it has to be." Hazel let out a hollow laugh. She was so furious that she couldn't even find the right words to convey what she was feeling. 'Does he even know why I'm withdrawing the divorce? I've already apologized for the banquet. What more does he expect? I'm offering hi

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 221 Divorce Denied

    Evan caught Hazel's wrist before the slap could land. She cried out, wincing. "Let go! I'm going to hit you!" Yet, her fury dissipated as soon as she saw the look on his face. His expression was so thunderous that it sent a shiver racing down her spine. A strange, icy fear slithered through her, leaving her trembling. For a heartbeat, she actually thought that he would end her right there. When she finally fell silent, Evan stared her down with piercing eyes. "So, you dragged me to the courthouse, but it's not because you want to finalize the divorce?" he hissed. "What the hell, Hazel? Are you messing with me?" He had counted down to this divorce like a prisoner scratching marks on a cell wall, desperate for release. Once he signed his name on that piece of paper, he would finally be free. It should have happened a month ago, as he had already cut ties with the Solbergs since then. Alas, Hazel had insisted on the so-called "cooling-off period," forcing the process t

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 220 The Divorce That Wasn't

    But Evan didn't care. They were getting divorced anyway."If you don't want to say it, forget it. Let's go inside first."Just thinking about the divorce being finalized made him feel excited, but that excitement looked completely different in Hazel's eyes.'He really doesn't want to divorce me… Look how happy he is.'In the end, Hazel still couldn't force herself to say the apology out loud. However, seeing the excitement on Evan's face eased much of the turmoil in her heart. What replaced it was a strange sense of calm—almost a kind of justification.'As long as I cancel the divorce application, that's already an explanation for Evan. At worst, things will just return to the way they were before.'With that thought in mind, Hazel walked in with him."Hello, what business are you two here for?" the staff member asked politely.Hazel took half a step back and remained silent. Her implication was obvious—she would never be the one to say they were canceling the divorce applicati

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 219 A Meeting With Opposite Expectations

    The public backlash had put enormous pressure on Evan as well.Just as he was wondering how to deal with it, Hazel suddenly contacted him and asked to meet at the courthouse.Evan froze. 'The courthouse? Is she trying to finalize the divorce early? That's fantastic!'A look of pure delight instantly spread across his face. "Alright! I'll be there right away!"He didn't even bother hanging up the phone before hurriedly changing his clothes.Seeing Evan rush around with such excitement, Estelle asked curiously, "Evan, what happened? What made you this happy and in such a hurry?""Great news! I'll tell you when I get back!" Evan said, clearly unable to wait.Meanwhile, when Hazel heard how quickly Evan had agreed, her expression changed slightly.Ever since their relationship fell apart, whenever she asked him to meet her, he would always avoid it or drag things out. Never once had he agreed this readily. It seemed Roxanne had been right—he really did not want the divorce.Callin

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 218 A Prideful Compromise

    That was what happened when someone got too used to being proud.Hazel took a deep breath before making her stance clear. "Roxanne, I understand what you mean. If you want me to throw Evan a little sweetness first, fine. But apologizing to him and personally canceling the divorce application? Absolutely not. "That's a matter of principle. Besides, leaving Evan there to chase after Zeke wasn't entirely wrong. If it happened again, I'd make the same choice."Roxanne immediately felt a headache coming on.'Hazel refuses to swallow her pride… What am I supposed to do now? We can't possibly ask Evan, the victim in all this, to apologize, can we? What kind of twisted logic would that be?'"But Hazel, think about your situation right now," she said seriously. "You've hurt Evan; you can't face your parents; and in the public eye across Silverton, you can't even hold your head high anymore. If things get worse, what about Zeke's blood transfusions in the future?"Hazel went completely st

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 29 Signing Without Looking Back

    It was far too abnormal.The entire Silverton elite circle knew that Evan couldn't live without the three heiresses. It was also common knowledge that he was nothing more than Zeke's substitute. In that case, why would Evan agree so readily?'Ms. Solberg is clearly serious this time. Once the divo

    Evan let out a cold laugh. Hazel clearly still had no idea that he had already severed ties with her family.'Did her parents not tell her?'Whatever the reason, Evan didn't bother dwelling on it. Whether she knew or not didn't matter anymore. All that remained was the one-month cooling-off period

    "Excuse me, Ms. Stanton. May I see your hand?"No one could have imagined that this would be Evan's very first line to Ivana.Sylvie froze on the spot. Ivana was just as stunned, completely at a loss for words."Forgive me." Before Ivana could even respond, Evan reached out and firmly took her ha

    'Gasp!'The villa instantly fell into a dead hush. No one spoke. Everyone was too stunned to react, but once they recovered, Roxanne and Anya fired off questions one after another."Hazel, are you serious?""You're really going to divorce Evan? I thought you were just saying it in anger…"Even Z
