Rosalie had already been stood up twice by Julian, and frustration simmered in her chest. Without bothering to say much to Alan, she simply ended the call. What she didn’t know was that just as she hung up, Julian had finally taken the phone, about to speak. 

Seated in her car, Rosalie furrowed her brows. If even Alan was confused, then she was even more baffled. Just days ago, Julian had been eager enough to summon a lawyer to discuss the divorce, yet when it came down to it, he was dragging his 

feet. 

She wasn’t naive enough to believe he suddenly couldn’t bear to let her go. Since she couldn’t figure out the reason, she simply stopped trying. 

She thought that one way or another, Julian wanted this divorce, and it was going to happen sooner or later. Right now, she had more pressing matters to attend to. 

Turning the wheel, she changed direction and headed home. Halfway there, her phone rang. 

“Rosa,” the voice on the other end said, “I’ve looked into what you asked. The results are ready. Should I send them over now?” 

“Yeah,” Rosalie replied, her voice steady. “Email them to me. I’ll be home soon.” 

As she hung up, a glint of cold determination surfaced in her eyes. Her fingers tightened slightly around the steering wheel as she pressed her foot a little harder on the gas. 

Back at her downtown apartment, she wasted no time opening her laptop. The moment she logged in, a new email notification popped up.
