The pen Lena held trembled in her hands as she sat on the kitchen table, the dim light casted a faint shadow over the dirvoce papers spread out before her.She found it hard to breath as she weight of her decision pressed down on her chest. She used her free hand to rub her temples as she set down the pen she held earlier. Lena had spent the last one hour and thirty minutes staring at the dirvoce papers, reading through the jargons stated on it that she barely understood. The only thing she understood was that if she signed it, it would be the end of her marriage. Why now? When she was finally becoming happy with him?She glanced through the papers again, the words blurry in her eyes. Could she really do this?Slowly, her eyes drifted to the wall clock. It was almost eight PM and Grayson was yet to come home. He had called her earlier telling her that the restaurant was busier than usual. She imagined him there, sleeves rolled up, his hands dusted with flour, focused and determined.

The sky rumbled loudly as rain battered against the windows, echoing through the house like a warning.Grayson sat on the white couch, his hair still damp from the shower he just had. He raised his head to see Lena walking into the living room with a file in her hands."Grayson, we need to talk." Lena said as she approached him.Grayson nodded his head. "Go ahead, I'm listening." He replied.Lena dropped the file on the coffee table in front of Grayson. He glanced at the file and his eyes widened in shock at what he saw 'Divorce Agreement' “Lena,” Grayson called, his voice edged with desperation as he stood up from the couch, his hair sticking to his forehead. “What is this? Why are you doing this?”Lena took a step closer towards him, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her face void of any emotions.“I thought it was obvious,” she said, her voice chillingly calm. “I want a divorce.”Grayson’s breath hitched. He clenched his fists, trying to steady himself. “You don’t mean that

After watching the shocking news on the television, Lena immediately went to take her drugs from the pharmacy and decided to stop by at the restaurant Grayson worked at. She tried calling his number when she was still at the hospital, but it went to voicemail.At the restaurant, she asked some of his colleagues, but they said they hadn't seen him in two days now. Lena was worried, as she tried to think of where he might have gone to. Was he okay? How has he been doing?When she couldn't think of anything, she decided to go to work and take her mind off some things.As she walked Into her company, her workers greeted and she replied with a slight nod of her head. When she reached her office, her secretary, Arianna quickly approached her."Welcome, Ma'am." She greeted."Thank you. What's on my schedule for today?" Lena asked her."You'll be reviewing the new products today with the production team and a meeting with the finance team.""Also, you'll join the board meeting in the evening

As she ran towards where she heard the sound from, she realized that it was an alley. She didn't really like any thing to do with alleys because they were mostly bad, but she was curious to know what had happened."Where do you think you're going to?" Grayson's thick voice made her stop in her tracks, and she turned around to face him."Didn't you hear that sound? Someone might be hurt?" Lena said with raised brows."So?" He asked, his both hands tucked into his pants pocket."If someone is hurt, we need to help them." Lena stated."We?" He asked with a raised brow.She stared at him, he didn't even look faced by all that was happening. "What if someone was seriously hurt?" She asked herself."If we go there and it happens to be a crime scene, don't you know that we'll be involved? Do you already want to bring me down?" He asked."No, I didn't mean it that way."

Even if it was Grayson who would be in charge, she would make sure she did her best to present a proposal worthy of approval. Lena leaned back in her chair, her fingers tightening around the pen she held. The name Blackwood Empire flashed on the document in front of her, making her stomach twist. Of all the companies in the world, why did it have to be his? She exhaled sharply, shaking off the thoughts. This wasn’t about him. It was about her company, her future. If she had to face him to prove herself, then so be it. Arianna knocked lightly before stepping in again. “Ms. Lena, there’s something else you should know.” Lena glanced up. “What is it?” Arianna hesitated. “The companies that make it to the next round… they’ll have to present their proposals in person.
