The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 257

Haynes had arrived.

Stella glanced at him with a calm demeanor. "Let's go," she said.

She knew he would come. He prioritized everything else over her. Besides, she still held Jasper's letter of forgiveness.

The two of them, one following the other, entered the city hall.

Inside, there weren't many couples getting married, but the queue at the divorce counter was steadily growing.

Among those seeking divorce, there were couples with expressions of cold indifference. Some were still arguing, hurling accusations at each other. Others were sobbing, desperately pleading with their partner not to go through with it. And then there were those who looked impatient, faces filled with relief at the prospect of freedom.

As soon as they walked in, a staff member approached them. "Mr. O'Brien, this way please."

It seemed Haynes had arranged everything in advance. He could always handle things efficiently when he set his mind to it.

In a private room, an employee was there to process their paperwork.

As they waited, Haynes suddenly said, “Stella, if you have any regrets, it’s not too late.”

Stella responded with a dismissive laugh.

Haynes’ dark eyes narrowed, a cold intensity flashing in them. "When the time comes for regrets, don't say I didn't give you a chance."

Stella looked exasperated. "Haynes, since when did you become so sentimental? Do you still want Jasper's letter of forgiveness or not?"

Haynes fell silent.
