Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 860:

Earlier, Marissa had been the one pushing for divorce. Now, Connor seemed even more eager than she was. He held her hand tightly and pulled her along at a pace that caused her to stagger slightly behind him.

When they reached his car, he opened the passenger door and gently but firmly guided her inside. Then, without waiting for Marc and Terry, he started the car and drove away from Daniels Manor.

Connor remained silent, yet his actions were resolute. Marissa could sense the simmering anger beneath his composed exterior.

The atmosphere between them grew thick with tension. As the engine roared to life, Marissa cast a quiet glance in his direction, sighing softly but choosing not to break the silence. She understood the source of his anger.

It wasn’t every day a man found himself with two children who had been conceived by others, especially when their mother was a woman he didn’t love. Any man in his position would feel wronged and deeply unsettled.

Marissa had resolved to divorce him because of this issue, and naturally, he felt more aggrieved and vexed.

Though she empathized with his feelings, her decision remained firm. Perhaps she might have shown more tolerance if the children’s mother had been anyone other than her sister.

Perhaps she would have felt pity for him. However, the matter involved her sister, and Marissa knew she couldn’t afford to extend her compassion to him. So, she kept her silence, believing it to be the most prudent course of action given the circumstances.

Domenic, Marc, and Terry, who had been left behind, were convinced that Connor’s anger was directed at Marissa’s perceived heartlessness. They assumed he was prepared to end their marriage in a fit of rage.

With resigned sighs, they quickly piled into another car, trailing behind Connor’s vehicle as they departed from Daniels Manor.

Connor drove in brooding silence, his lips pressed into a thin line. His gaze was fixed intently on the road ahead as the car sped forward.

What usually took an hour’s journey was cut in half; they arrived at the courthouse in just thirty minutes. Upon reaching their destination, Connor swiftly exited the vehicle and circled to the passenger side to open the door for Marissa.

Marissa stepped out in silence, only for Connor to grasp her hand firmly and lead her briskly toward the courthouse. Coincidentally, the courthouse was nearly empty today.

In a matter of moments, they had submitted their divorce application, completed the necessary paperwork, and were handed the decrees with surprising efficiency.

As Marissa held one of the decrees in her hand, a wave of disbelief washed over her. She had steeled herself for this moment, but she never imagined it would unfold so quickly.

Their divorce was as swift as their marriage had been. Back then, Connor had practically abducted her, dragging her to City Hall for a hasty wedding.

Everything had happened so fast that she barely had time to comprehend what was occurring
