The police asked me to go to the police station to pay the fine and discuss the compensation. I would be able to leave after signing
those documents.
Initially, I did not want to go. However, I felt that the police station was the best place to talk about divorce. I did not dare to
discuss it with him alone.
When I reached the police station, Brian was sitting on the metal bench. He avoided my gaze uneasily when he saw me.
I paid the fine and a thirty–thousand–dollar compensation to the other party.
Brian picked up his jacket from the bench and glared at me fiercely. He then said through gritted teeth, “Camden wasn’t free to
come over. If not, I wouldn’t have called you.”
I took a deep breath when I looked at this disgusting man.
“Brian, let’s get a divorce!”
He was walking toward the exit when he heard what I said. He turned around and looked at me in disbelief.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!”
However, he looked as if he had just heard a funny joke. His gaze was full of disdain.
“Back then, you were begging and crying to marry me. What’s this now?”
He slowly walked toward me, and I took a step back in fear.
Even though I had mentally prepared myself for the confrontation, I was still trembling uncontrollably as I retreated.
“I don’t agree! Because…” He leaned in to whisper in my ear. “I haven’t taken revenge for Dawn! If you hadn’t insisted that I come home, Dawn wouldn’t have killed herself, and I wouldn’t have lost everything!”
In others‘ eyes, it looked like he was leaning in to hug me.
After he said that, he smiled and straightened my collar.
“It’s because I love you, Lindsay,” he said in front of everyone.
