Not just Mom, even I had prepared for a long, hard fight with Bill. After all, he had kept Mom in captivity for 20 years. If he wanted to set her free, he would have done it long ago. 

With his status, he could get any woman he wanted. If was just about his desire to possess, that didn’t 

make sense. 

But he really did relent, and it felt surreal, like something out of a dream. 

“Really? Are you sure?” Mom asked, her tear–filled eyes searching his, tears streaming down her face. 

He cupped her face gently and wiped her tears away. “A least this time, when you leave, don’t cry over me, alright?” 

Mom bit her lip, nodding through her tears. “You really mean it? No conditions?” 

This didn’tfit Bill’s usual persona. He was a businessman; even if he couldn’t have Mom, he would surely have demanded something in return. 

Bill spoke up. “I do have one condition.” 

“What is it?” 

“If we can’t stay husband and wife, at least be friends. Don’t disappear completely from my life. After all, there’s still the child we created together.” 

Ar that, Mom almost blurted out the truth. I quickly intervened, “You two are just ending the marriage. Don’t mention the baby; I’m the connection between you two. Mom, please agree to Dad’s request.” 

Seeing Bill filled with guilt, I urged him to sign the divorce papers while the iron was hot. 

Mom understood what I meant and her mind cleared. She nodded. “Okay, I agree. Let’s sign it now.” 

“I’ve seen the divorce papers you drafted. You want to leave with nothing, even returning the shares to me. I won’t accept that.” 

“What do you mean?” 

“I’ll have a lawyer draft the new papers. 

Mom glanced at me, her eyes pleading for help. It seemed like she wanted to ask if Bill was purposely stalling. 

I shook my head. He wasn’t trying to delay things. 

With his personality, if he didn’t want the divorce, he would have said so already. But now, having come this far, it was clear he wanted to make amends with her 

This was his good intention, and even if Mom didn’t want to accept it, she couldn’t refuse. 

He was still that dominant Bill.

“Alright, get it done quickly.”

Bill looked at Mom, a wry smile playing on his lips. “Philippa, I’ve always been who keeps my word. Once I’ve promised, I won’t break it. You don’t have to guard yourself against me.” 

“I understand.” 

“In our country, divorce isn’t like in Snowville, where there’s a 30–day cooling–off period. Once the papers are filed, you can receive the divorce certificate on the same day. So, before we finalize everything, I have one last request.” 

“What is it?” 

Bill studied her guarded expression, speaking carefully “Could you continue being my wife for just three more days? After that, we’ll go back and finalize the divorce.” 

At the humility in his voice, Mom didn’t refuse. “Alright 

In three days, she would no longer belong to him. 

Maybe she would marry Nicholas, who had always been waiting for her. Maybe she would choose a new city to start over. 

Whatever she chose, he would have lost her forever. 

At this point, as an observer, I wasn’t sure how to describe the complicated feelings I had inside. 

If Zoey were still alive, she wouldn’t want to see 

this outcome. 

Children always hope their parents will be together, but here I was, tearing them apart. 

Zoey, would you blame me? 

I quietly stepped out of the room, giving them the time and space they needed. 

After 20 years of resentment, I’m sure they had a lot to say to each other. 

Divorce was the best decision Bill could have made. 

As I left, the snow had begun falling once more. 

The witch hazel in the yard was in full bloom; the flowers looked vibrant under the light, creating a dreamy and beautiful scene. 

I looked back one last time, seeing Bill standing on the balcony smoking. His expression was unclear, but the snow had covered him, along with an overwhelming sense of loneliness. 

But it was impossible to have a second chance in this life. 

Wrong is wrong, and no one will wait for you forever. 

When you make a mistake, you have to face the consequences. 

This was Bill’s karma, and next, it would be those who had done wrong,

Every person’s fate was quietly arranged behind the sces 

1 stepped out of the yard, and there was a black busines car waiting outside. As soon as I appeared, the door slowly opened, and I immediately saw the man siding in a wheelchair 

He must have been there for a while, working away at his desk. When the door opened, he lined hat laptop and looked at me with gentle eyes. 

“Carter.“” 

I hurried toward him, relieved that I had walked past that dark abyss, Carter was the light that polled me 

out of it. 

As I climbed into the car, the cold still chilled my body The snowflakes melted away as the warm air inside the car surrounded me. 

He noticed the complexity in my expression and asked “Did Bill agree?” 

As always, f couldn’t hide anything from him. Carter was the smartest person I knew–both emotionally and intellectually. 

He could read me with just one glance. 

“How did you know he’d agree to the divorce?”
