<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 1013 A Familiar Face</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon reaching the divorce processing window, Nathaniel solemnly took a seat, with Jessica subsequently seuling down beside him.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The staff member looked at the trio and instantly imagined a dramatic scene unfolding.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The staff deliberately said to Jessica, “I’ve seen plenty of people who meddle in others‘ marriages. In the end, only a few of them ever find true happiness.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jessica’s face turned red in an instant. “What are you talking about? Who ruined someone else’s marriage?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The staff wouldn’t bother with her kind.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">They had worked there for so many years, and it was easy to tell who was the wife and who was the mistress.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel furrowed his brows as he said to Jessica, “You should go out first. Wait for me outside.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“You can’t see, though. What if Cecilia pulls some underhanded trickter? What will you do then?” Jessica feared that all of Nathaniel’s assets would end up in Cecilia’s hands.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In Cecilia’s presence, Nathaniel could only suppress his emotions,forting Jessica, saying, “Aren’t there</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">staff members here? If you’re really worried, just call Mason in.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“All right, then.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Reluctantly, Jessica finally left.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Once she left, the staff began processing the divorce for Cecilia and Nathaniel.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The staff members inquired about the couple’s assets after their marriage.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel took out the divorce agreement that he had someone draft in advance.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Cecilia, take a look. If there are no issues, we’ll proceed ording to the agreement.” Nathaniel said.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia took the agreement and started to review it.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Inside, she saw that Daltonia Vi and some vehicles and properties would be to her name. Additionally, Nathaniel was giving her ten billion in assets as a divorce settlement.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In Tud, ten billion must be the most expensive divorce settlement, right? Initially, Cecilia thought Nathaniel would be stingy, begrudgingly giving her just a few tens of millions. She didn’t expect him to give her so much money.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">With so much wealth, she and her children would never have to worry about money for generations.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Mr. Rainsworth, you’re really generous. It seems you’re particrly eager to divorce me,” Ceciliamented.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“After all, you’ve been with me for so many years, even bore my children. These are all things I owe you.” Nathaniel’s voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Under the watchful eyes of the staff, the two of them signed their respective names.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Since Nathaniel had given a heads–up in advance, the divorce proceedings between the two were quite straightforward. It was all settled within half an hour.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia still remembered that their wedding ceremony had alsosted less than half an hour. Marriage and divorce… In a brief span of time, we came together, only to part ways again.</font></font>
With the red divorce certificate in hand, Cecilia made her way to the door. The weather outside was bleak.
Mason also emerged with Nathaniel. Observing the impending rain, Mason couldn’t help but ask, “Mrs. Rainsworth, did you drive here yourself? Would you like a ride back?”
Cecilia looked back at him. “Nathaniel and I are already divorced. Mr. Sanders, please refrain from addressing incorrectly.”
After she finished speaking, she disappeared into the crowd.
She hadn’t driven her car that day. Instead, she had walked all the way there.
Perhaps it was an attempt to experience the feelings before the divorce.
Exen then, Cecilia vividly remembered when she and Nathaniel registered their marriage. They hadn‘ even had their wedding ceremony yet, and her father was still alive.
They went to the City Hall together. On the way there, her heart was pounding as if it was about to take flight. Yet, Nathaniel seemed unusually calm, as if he was merelypleting a task.
Looking back then, it was simply because there was no love.
Cecilia wasn’t sure how long she had been walking when, as expected, a gentle drizzle began to fall from the sky.
At that moment, she had be a billionaire, and she was supposed to feel happy. Yet, for some reason she just couldn’t muster the joy.
A car then slowly pulled up beside Cecilia. The window was rolled down, revealing a face that couldn’t be more familiar.
