"Xavier, are you trying to avoid the divorce?" Lily couldn't understand why Xavier still had doubts about whether
she truly wanted to end things. They have already gotten to this point.
She wondered if he was going to start imagining that she would attempt to reconcile after he had the final
divorce agreement in his hands.
Xavier scoffed lightly. He flipped open the divorce agreement before starting to sign his nat the designated

Lily's heart raced with great excitement at every stroke as she watched the black ink stain the pristine white
paper. "Xavier!" Two voices called out in unison.

"Sign it first!" Lily said. She could tell from the voices that it was Shane and Edith. Their presence, no matter the
reason, was bad for the divorce proceedings.
Just one sumleft, and it would be over.
"Xavier, this is too much! You still want a divorce at a tlike this? A figure rushed over so fast that all Lily saw

the papers into shreds in no time.
Xavier made no move to stop Hazel. Instead, he looked at Lily lazily and calmly.
He knew she had a backup plan after all. Xavier didn't know if he was too smart for Lily or if she was too simple-
minded. He had been able to guess her every move.
"Lily, how could you be so thoughtless?" Hazel asked, her heart racing with fear. She thought it was fortunate
that she had notified the Fultons in time, and thankfully they arrived before it was too late.
If they had been a moment later, the agreement would have been signed, and Lily would be out of the Fulton
family for good.
"Can you stop meddling in my affairs?" Lily yelled. The shredded agreement completely crushed all of Lily's
hopes.
The staff at the counter reminded them, "Can the both of
if you please step aside to handle your family matters so the next people in line can proceed?"
Hazel walked over and dragged Lily toward the door. Xavier was sitting upright, his expression dark and gloomy,
People around them were already pulling out their phones to record. It wouldn't be surprising if this made

Whatever dignity Xavier had left was destroyed.
"Let's have a proper talk outside, Xavier." Shane patted Xavier on the shoulder and deftly stepped din to block
Edith's second slap
Xavier stood and walked out. Whether it was his looks or presence, he was very attractive, which led more
people to take out their phones to take photos of him. However, Timothy soon arrived with several bodyguards
to search and delete all photos and videos. Outside the courthouse, in a comer of the parking lot, Hazel stood in
front of Lily and smiled wannly as she greeted Edith
"They're still young,

and they sometimes don't think things through. As a family, we should understand. Lily's in the wrong here,
we've spoiled her too much!"
Edith looked displeased, but as her gaze swept over Lily, her expression softened with a touch of affection.
"Xavier has a nasty temper too." Edith disliked Hazel, but reprimanding Xavier was a show of support for Lily. She
shot Xavier anley glare and said, "What are you standing there for? Cover and apologize to Lily. There'll be
no more talk or thoughts on divorce!" Xavier narrowed his eyes and stood straight.
