Snare of Love novel Chapter 819

Dolores’ heart clenched as she wondered if he really did bring the divorce papers with him. She asked in a low voice, “What’s this?”

Armand pulled out a luggage bag from the back of the car, walked towards her and said, “These are all Theresa’s things.”

Dolores, looking at the bag in his hand, did not immediately take it as she asked, “What’s this all about…”

“Wherever she chooses to live, be it here or back to City C, anywhere would be better than living with me. If she had really thought it through, if she really wants to…Divorce, I’ll not have qualms with her.” Armand said while looking down, concealing his emotions and added, “Thank you.”

Dolores replied, “I see. That’s not exactly a bad thing. You two should think about it long and hard after you’ve calmed down. Though Mrs. Bernie is indeed a problem and both of you won’t be happy anyway if it is handled poorly.”

“I understand. She’s the one who raised me, I can’t just ignore her. Theresa…I’m very indebted to her…” He could not even begin to pay off his debt.

Dolores knew that Armand was feeling down. She did not reply as she carried the luggage back into the house.

She opened the door to Theresa’s door and saw that she was sitting alone on the balcony. Theresa acted as if she was the only person left in the world.

Dolores approached her slowly, as Theresa was in very deep thoughts about something and did not realize that someone entered her room.

“Theresa,” Dolores called to her softly.

She turned around slowly as Dolores smiled and said, “What are you thinking about?”

“Nothing much.” She caught sight of the luggage bag in Dolores’ hands and asked, “Is this…”

“Umm…”

Dolores sat her down on the bed and told her everything about Armand’s visit. “He said that he will follow whatever you wish.”

Theresa lowered her head, her eyelashes twitching as she continued looking at the bag, “So, all my stuff is inside that bag, along with the divorce papers?”

“Theresa…”

“I’m alright, it’s not exactly a bad thing.” She stood up and took over the bag, opened it and saw that it was indeed containing her belongings. On the top of the pile was a sealed document bag.

Theresa thought that the bag contained the divorce papers, as she hesitated when picking up the bag. Between all that, her eyes started tearing up.

In one’s imagination, many things seemed a lot more manageable than they actually were. When faced in reality, however, is where one’s courage magically disappears into thin air.

Thankfully, Theresa quickly composed herself and reached for the document bag. She opened the bag and reached for its contents.

She imagined that the papers within would have the words ‘Divorce Agreement’ plastered on top. She was proven wrong when she realized that the bag’s contents were all of Armand’s savings. She was further proven wrong when she found out that it was not only his savings, it also had all of his assets, his savings, and his properties deeds.

Theresa’s smiles were more relaxed and they were comfortable with each other.

Armand moved around. The balcony from the bedroom was still the same as it was when they moved in, the woman sitting on the hammock playing with fishes in the aquarium was long gone, however.

The slim figure was also gone from the bed.

The place remained unchanged, it was its residents that were changed.

The whole place felt empty, just like his heart.

Armand turned back to the living room and sat on the sofa. He recalled the times where Theresa was there watching the television.

All of the memory trickled back into his mind like a never-ending cinema.

The phone in his pocket vibrated. As he took it out, he saw that it was Theresa’s message and opened it.

After finishing reading her message, he felt even more depressed than before.

He took a long time before replying, ‘Ok.’
