When Fate Intervenes (Giselle and Anthony) novel Chapter 18

While referring to the information she had looked up, it took Giselle just ten minutes to find the things she needed.

After confirming she had everything, Giselle brought a long envelope out of the room with her. When she saw Anthony slumped next to the door, Giselle narrowed her eyes.

"What's Anthony up to this time? He could not possibly be thinking of postponing the divorce procedure by acting sick, right?" she wondered.

Giselle stopped before him. There was a wariness in her tone as she was being cautious.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

She did not ask that out of concern. Instead, it was more like Giselle was doubting him.

Anthony could tell the difference between the two, of course.

He shook his head and pushed himself to his feet by holding onto the door. Anthony managed to force a smile.

"I'm fine. Let's go."

After Anthony pushed the door open, Giselle gradually lowered her guard and followed him out of the place.

Neither of them spoke on the way back to the courthouse.

Giselle kept checking her watch to see how much time they had left. Since they were running out of time, she grabbed Anthony's hand once they got out of the car before hurrying into the building.

Anthony recalled Giselle being this impatient as well on the day they got married. She was probably worried he might change his mind back then.

Anthony was not in a good mood that day. However, he could not help chuckling softly when he saw how anxious she was. That had somehow helped lessen Anthony's fear and uncertainty in entering a marriage.

Who would have thought that the two of them would be coming to this place three years later to get a divorce?

When he saw the couples around them who were lining up to get divorced as well, Anthony suddenly felt like it was not that big of a deal after all.

Since Giselle said that their marriage was a mistake, they should put an end to it. Only then could Anthony get a chance to start over.

Anthony would not try to use marriage to limit Giselle's freedom. Even if they had officially separated, Anthony could just approach Giselle as her pursuer instead.

This time, Anthony would be the one to prove to Giselle that his feelings for her were sincere, starting from the very beginning.

Even though he was not sure if Giselle would give him a chance just like he did, Anthony no longer felt lost nonetheless.

He was willing to spend ten years or even the rest of his life to pursue her.
