All Chapters of Reborn Without You: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Dorothy glared at Christopher. "Didn't you hear Evelyn calling for you?""I did," Christopher said. "Let me send you back home.""Mia, I'll drop by to visit Evelyn again tomorrow," Dorothy said. "No need for that, Grandma. Evelyn is fine, so please don't go to all that trouble," Amelia said.Dorothy looked at Amelia, her heart aching.Amelia had always been sensible and thoughtful. She never bothered fighting for herself or for her rights.Precisely because of that, Dorothy was always worried about Amelia. She would always keep a close eye on whether their married life was blissful or not.Dorothy called for her driver. She didn't want Christopher to send her back home. His hand was still injured. Although he was recovering well, he was not fully healed yet."Take care of your wife," Dorothy reminded him before she left. "What's going on between you two?""Nothing," Christopher said to Dorothy. "We're doing very well."Dorothy looked doubtfully at him. "That had better be

"Sure," Christopher said without any hesitation.There was nothing emotional about their divorce negotiation.Everything seemed so business-like.It felt as though they were strangers who were here to just go through the divorce proceedings. There was no affection between them whatsoever.Amelia was not surprised by how readily Christopher agreed to her request. He never liked Evelyn to begin with.She looked and read through the last few pages of the agreement, where she noticed two additional terms.The first was to keep their divorce a secret from the Zephyrs and the public.The second was to keep the fact that they were married and the duration of their marriage under wraps unless Christopher gave her explicit permission to reveal it.If she were to breach any of the terms in the agreement, Christopher had the right to take back all assets and compensation to preserve his reputation and image.He could also ask for compensation from her.Amelia found the terms rather laug

It was better to just get the pain over with rather than prolong her agony. Meanwhile, Winona and Jasper found out that Amelia and Christopher had signed the papers and were planning to meet at the clerk's office tomorrow to register their divorce.Winona immediately booked a private room in a restaurant. "After your visit to the clerk's office tomorrow, let's celebrate! You're finally out of misery! But why did he suddenly come round to it and agree to the divorce?"She knew that Amlie was planning to raise a divorce petition and was prepared to fight a long legal battle over it.Amelia stood in the corridor and explained everything to Winona."Damn it!" Winona felt suffocated with anger. "Is he insane? How dare he so blatantly protect that homewrecker!"Jasper's face turned cold and dark.Even after six years of marriage, they couldn't have an amicable split. Christopher was still trying to restrict Amelia's freedom after the divorce. He didn't even want to give her a clean

The staff member asked if they really wanted to register their divorce."Yes," Amelia said without any hesitation.The staff member glanced at Christopher, who nodded in agreement.The staff member handed them a document, which he asked them to sign.Amelia took the document and read the content.It was clearly written that there was a thirty-day cooling-off period from the date of registration of divorce. If any party decided not to go ahead with the divorce, the application for divorce could be annulled.She lowered her head and signed the document without hesitation.Christopher, on the other hand, signed it way slower.When Evelyn fell into the water and he carried her out, he might have strained his old injury. Amelia could see his hand shaking when he signed the document.She waited patiently for him to be done.After both of them had signed the document, they handed it back to the staff member. They had officially registered their divorce."This is the receipt of your

Luke stuck a hand in his pocket. "Just Evelyn. Maybe she feels she won't be able to get Nathan. At least she knows her place well enough not to bring it up.""She didn't bring it up?" Caleb said with pursed lips. "She's pretty set on severing the relationship, huh?""Yeah. Nathan's her biological son, and she abandoned him just like that. How cold-blooded of her!"Silence ensued on their end.A while later, Caleb suggested, "Perhaps she wanted the divorce a long time ago."Luke laughed. "How could that be? Didn't I tell you that she went to great lengths to marry Chris? She might just be playing hard to get. You never know what she's up to till the very final moment." He then asked belatedly, "Why are you taking that woman's side, anyway? Just come over quickly.""I have some work to do. I won't be joining you guys today," Caleb said.Back in the room, Christopher's phone rang.He put his glass down and looked at the notification on his phone screen. It was from the hos
