Dalton didn’t want to involve Chandler, knowing it would only complicate mallers.
He felt a bit guilty, especially since he was still keeping Meryl around.
“Uncle Chandler, this is our personal business. Just let it be!”
Chandler smirked, clearly unimpressed.
“Personal? You were the one shouting about marrying her, and now you want to divorce her out of nowhere? Treating marriage. like a joke? That’s embarrassing for the Aniston family. As the head of the family, I can’t just turn a blind eye.”
Dalton bristled.
“Our relationship is over. If I want a divorce, I don’t need to explain myself to anyone. I can’t even stand being around Lydia anymore, so why should I need your permission?”
His bluntness surprised even Lydia.
It was rare for anyone in the Aniston family to speak so openly to Chandler.
“Okay, no need for my approval,” Chandler said, his voice growing serious.
“But you can’t just sneak out of a marriage that was so public.

“If you want to end this, I’ll help you make it stick.”

Before Dalton could react, Chandler pulled out his phone. “Get ready for a press conference Call all the media. We have something important to announce about the Aniston family.”
“Uncle Chandler, what are you doing?” Dalton was taken aback.
Chandler chuckled. “Once the press gets involved, your mom won’t be able to stop this. Isn’t that how you brought Lydia into the family in the first place? Now that I’m bringing in the reporters, maybe you should thank me for the help.”
Dalton frowned. “This will just make us a laughingstock!”
After all, their marriage had been so sudden.
“Worried about that? You’ve already become the talk of the
town,” Chandler shot back.
Dalton’s expression darkened.
As much as he hated to admit it, Chandler had a point.
He didn’t realize getting rid of Lydia would be this complicated.
When he married her, people were skeptical, but now that he wanted to divorce, everyone suddenly wanted to convince him to stay.
Frustrated, he shot a glare at Lydia before storming out of the house.
With Chandler meddling in his affairs, he worried Chandler

Once Dalton was gone, Lydia let out a sigh of relief and thanked Chandler.
If Chandler hadn’t shown up when he did, she might have been forced to sign that agreement.
Chandler shot her a cold look. “Don’t think I’m doing this for
you.”
“Chandler.” Lydia suddenly remembered the scent she’d noticed on Dalton earlier. “Did you notice anything familiar about his cologne?”
If Dalton had rekindled feelings for Meryl, Chandler wouldn’t take that lightly. Lydia felt the tension in her relationship with Dalton was all Meryl’s fault.
A glint of excitement appeared in Lydia’s eyes. If Chandler turned against Meryl, her situation would likely worsen.
Chandler raised an eyebrow and let her continue.
“The scent on Dalton is just like the perfume Meryl always
wears. Do you think she might be sneaking around behind your back? Maybe rekindling an old romance?”
