“Miss Wright, the Bennett family is offering you one million dollars as compensation for the divorce. The money is on this card.”

Benjamin Carter said as he handed Elena Wright a bank card on the street,

Elena Wright looked at the card, feeling a mixture of emotions.

Two years ago, following her grandfather’s last will, Elena married Asher Bennett

But Asher had never wanted the marriage, so he never returned home,not even once.

Throughout those two years, Elena had seen her husband only on television.

She had never seen him at home. It seemed like some kind of joke, but it was the absolute truth.

In the end, they decided to get divorced.

Asher had not attended the divorce proceedings, just as he had not attended the wedding proceedings. Instead, he had entrusted Benjamin, the Bennett family’s head butler, with handling everything on his behalf.

Elena looked at the card Benjamin had given her and shook her head.

“Thank you, but I don’t need any compensation.”

She then walked toward the curb and got into a black Bently that was waiting for her.

She had two older brothers: the eldest, Jonathan Blake, and the younger one, Elliot Spencer.

Elena looked at them and laughed.

“It’s just a divorce. Why are you two so worried?”

“Elena, did you really get divorced?”

Elliot, who was driving, turned toward her in disbelief.

Elena raised the divorce papers with a smile.

“Of course. I’m officially divorced.”

Elliot laughed.

“You should have gotten divorced a long time ago. In fact, you two should never have gotten married in the first place.”

Elena shot him a look and quickly said,

“Elliot, focus on driving. I don’t want us to get into an accident. And why are you so happy about this? Divorce isn’t something to celebrate.”

She felt as though Jonathan and Elliot had been eagerly waiting for her divorce.

Elliot nodded.

“Oh, it absolutely deserves to be celebrated.”

Then he glanced at Jonathan, who was sitting in the back seat, and added,

“And I think Jonathan is happy too.”

Jonathan nodded.

“I agree with him. You two never should have gotten married.”

Elena sighed helplessly.

“It was my grandfather’s wish. You both know I couldn’t go against it.”

Silence filled the car for a moment before Elliot said resentfully,

“I don’t know what Grandpa was thinking when he forced you to marry that idiot, Asher. How could he dare ignore you for two whole years?”

If Elena hadn’t stopped him, he would have taught Asher a lesson himself.

Elena, however, remained calm.

“But there was one good thing about it. He never interfered in my life. He never even visited the Bennett residence once. He probably doesn’t even know what I look like.”

It was almost laughable,a married couple who were supposed to be the closest people to each other had not even met once in two years.

But Elena held no resentment in her heart.

She hadn’t wanted the marriage either. She had only agreed to it to fulfill her grandfather’s dying wish, while Asher had been forced into it as well.

Neither of them had been happy.

Elliot spoke again.

“If I had known he was this terrible, I never would have let you marry him.”

Then he added jokingly,

“Grandpa should have married you to someone better... like me. Or Jonathan. We’re both much more reliable than that idiot.”

Elena laughed.

“Come on, who marries their own brother?”

Elliot replied,

“We’re not blood-related.”

Elena rolled her eyes. It was true that Jonathan and Elliot had been adopted by her grandfather, but they had grown up with her since childhood, which was why she considered them her real brothers.

She said firmly,

“Enough, both of you. I only see you as my elder brothers.”

Elliot was only joking, so she didn’t take his words seriously.

However, when he suggested that she marry either of them, Jonathan’s gaze unconsciously shifted toward Elena.

When she made it clear that she saw him only as a brother, the light in his eyes dimmed for a moment before he quickly regained his composure.

It was obvious that Jonathan secretly harbored feelings for Elena.

Yet he had concealed his emotions so skillfully over the years that neither Elliot nor Elena had noticed anything.

Finally, Jonathan spoke in his warm voice.

“Anyway, it all worked out in the end. What are your plans now? You distanced yourself from everyone for the sake of your marriage and disappeared for two years. A lot of people have missed you.”

Elena sighed nostalgically.

“Two years have passed... I wonder if anyone still remembers Dr. Wright.”

Jonathan smiled.

“Of course. You’re one of the most famous neurosurgeons in the world. No matter how long you’ve been gone, no one could possibly forget you.”

Elena smiled, excitement shining in her eyes.

“Then wish me luck, because I’m going back to the operating room.”
