Cameron cleared his throat with a gloomy expression, but Nellie and the staff member just nced at him before going back to their lively conversation andpletely ignoring him. "Nellie, you''re like the hero for all those bullied housewives online now. I admire you so much."


    Nellie replied, "I just wish for all girls to never end up like me. It''s better to always be the carefree darling in the eyes of your family."


    "Nellie, you''re really kind."


    Cameron awkwardly sat next to Nellie, who shifted slightly away from him. He nced at her, noticing her clear disdain.


    ''Does she really despise him that much?'' he wondered.


    The staff handed the divorce papers to Nellie, "Nellie, if there''s anything you don''t understand, just ask me."


    Then, they tossed Cameron his copy and went back to ignoring him.


    From the next table, they heard another staff member asking, "What''s the reason for the divorce?"


    The woman sobbed, "He cheated." The man hung his head in shame.


    "How will the assets be divided?" the staff asked.


    The man, his voice barely above a whisper, said, "I''m at fault. She can have everything."


    The staff member sighed, "Seems like there''s still some feelings between you two. Is there a chance for reconciliation?"


    The woman shook her head firmly. "Cheating and domestic violence are my deal breakers."


    The man suddenly broke down. "Honey, I really know I messed up. I don''t expect you to forgive me, but I hope we can still be friends someday."


    Time seemed to stand still. Nellie and Cameron fell silent, lost in their own thoughts.Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Cameron was overwhelmed with a swirl of emotions. He silently wondered if there was any chance for him and Nellie to be friends.


    Unfortunately, the staff didn''t even give him a glimmer of hope and practically wrote him off.


    "Mr. Dawson, there''s no undoing regret. You''ve treated your wife so poorly. Son''t hold your breath for forgiveness. Dreaming of friendship? You''ll be lucky if you''re just enemies."


    Nellie signed the papers with


    determination. Cameron watched


    her, perhaps feeling a pang of


    conscience. "Nellie, where are you


    going to stay after the divoryout


    Should I give you our home?


    ? Or


    maybe some money to buy a new ce?"


    Nellie looked at him sarcastically. "Cameron, have you finally realized you''ve racked up too much bad karma? Are you now trying to do good?"


    Cameron''s handsome face darkened. "So ungrateful." He angrily signed the papers and handed them back to the staff.


    The staff organized the documents, and quickly handed over their divorce certificate.


    Nellie, clutching the certificate, felt like she''d finally broken free from two lifetimes of chains, and to her own surprise, tears of joy rolled down her cheeks. She kissed the divorce certificate and gratefully said to the staff, "Thank you, I''m finally free."


    She stood up, not even sparing a nce at Cameron, and rushed outside in excitement.


    Cameron suddenly followed, catching up with her at the door of the registration office. He grabbed her arm. "Nellie, I need to talk to you."


    Nellie looked at his hand on her arm with irritation. "Get your filthy hand off me."


    Cameron quickly let go. "Nellie, your revenge has made me suffer too. Let''s just end this here."


    Nellie looked at him like he was some sort of rare sight. "Cameron, let me guess, you''re nning to marry Greta next, right? From then on, you two lovebirds will live happily ever after. But at what cost? Did your happily ever after mean I had to sacrifice a kidney?"
