Sherry stared at Julian, disbelief etched on her face.“You love her, yet you slept with Rita! Why don’t you just die!” She slammed her fist on the desk, furious. If she weren’t physically outmatched, she would have smashed an ashtray over
his head.
Julian stood, the shredded divorce agreement scattered on the floor. “Everything she sold, everything she burned, I’ll get back. Including her heart! We’ll get back together. For the rest of our lives, she’ll only be with me!” He turned and
left.
Sherry was stunned for a few seconds, chasing him to the door.“You just tore up a copy! Don’t think that’ll stop the divorce! It won’t work! I’m telling you, it won’t work!” The jerk! Playing the heartbroken card now? What took you so “long? His belated remorse is cheaper than dirt! She rubbed her temples. With his current attitude, this divorce was going to be a nightmare.
The rainy spring night was as cold as autumn. Julian sat on the steps outside his villa, watching the security footage of Olivia burning their wedding photos. She stood in the yard, her eyes filled with sadness and determination… What was he doing at that time? He saw himself happily making a phone call. It felt like a ghost; he dared not watch, dared not remember, dared not think too deeply… He wished he could turn back time, beg for her forgiveness.
Rain fell on his face, but the tears streaming down were hot. He Rui held an umbrella for him, but the rain was too heavy, it was useless.
“Buy back all the jewelry Mrs. Shaw sold and put it back.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Reprint the wedding photos in the same frames and hang them back where they were.”
“Yes, sir.”
He Rui obeyed, but he knew those things couldn’t go back to how they were.
Julian’s phone vibrated. He answered.“Mr. Shaw, we’ve traced your wife’s whereabouts. Yesterday afternoon, she used her credit card at a department store in Singapore.”
“Singapore?” Julian frowned.“That’s impossible. I found no record of her boarding a flight.”
“But we found her outbound travel records. She was on a Gulfstream G650 private jet, but the owner’s information is being withheld.“
Julian’s face paled. He hung up, striding into the storm.“Notify the flight crew, I’m going to Singapore immediately. And… find out if Evan is in Singapore.” In all of Chicago, only he could have taken his wife away without a trace! He should have known!
