My hands shook a little after I put my signature on the paper as I realized the gravity of what I had just done. I was officially divorced. As I stared at the signed papers, something shifted inside me. It wasn’t just grief any more; it was clarity. I had nothing left tying me to Washington city. No family. No home. There's no reason to stay. The love I’d fought for, cried for and defended had never truly existed. Julian had walked out of our marriage long before today. I was just the last one to leave. And maybe, just maybe, that made me stronger. I wiped my tears, squared my shoulders, and told myself I would not be broken. I would start again on my own terms.

It had taught me so much about myself and about what I wanted out of life. And now, I was finally living the life I wanted. I was happy, I was at peace, and I was excited to see what the future held.

"Not anymore. You see, when you so helpfully signed our divorce agreement, you also signed over full ownership of the company to me." "What?” Melanie asked weakly. “That can’t be right." There was a hint of a smile on Hardin’s face as he answered. "Surprised? This company is mine now, Melanie. You signed it over along with everything else." Melanie staggered backwards in shock. Dear God, what has she done? How could this be happening? "Here, darling sis, take a good look.” Natalia slid the divorce papers from yesterday across the table. Shakily, Melanie picked them up, and her eyes scanned the fine print rapidly, then landed on the highlighted clause at the bottom of the last page.

After four long years of endurance, endless nights of tears, and the quiet, gnawing ache of one-sided love, here I was—divorced, broken, but not defeated. Eight months ago, I had thought my marriage to Lance left me with nothing but scars and regrets.

I was wrong, I never knew it was going to be this hard and painful. Every passing moment I feel like my life is about to crawl away from me, I couldn't believe I attempted suicide twice, If not for Chris I would have been a long speech.

TERMS OF WAR Nina’s POV. I kept staring at my phone until my fingers stopped trembling. Fear tried to crawl up my spine, familiar and poisonous, but I crushed it down. I had lived in fear since I got married to Nate, but now I was going to let go of that identity without looking back. Whatever life has in store for me, I would go through it like a champion that I was, not a coward. Fear was an identity forced on me, not my personality. I bit hard on my lips and turned back.

Nancy filed for divorce, and his heart felt like it had been hollowed out. His Adam's apple bobbed as he said, "Nancy, can we not get divorced? I gave her medication, so she won't get pregnant, and I won't have any involvement with her in the future. Can we go back to how things were before? Is not getting divorced okay?" The man, who used to be arrogant and never gave her a second glance, is now humbly begging for her. Nancy would not continue her relationship with Craig, and she did not want to be caught between Dalton and Amiya. She only wanted to give birth to the child.
