“What’s going on? Why has Irvin followed you here?” he asked “Don’t tell me you’ve gone back to being a lovesick fool again?

I wasn’t sure if tryin’s change in behavior was cut of guilt or love but it seemed he had made up his mind to stop treating Julianne the way he used to. He might be intent on this, but I knew what Julianne was capable of
She wouldn’t allow him to stick to his decision for long, nur would she allow him to create distance between them—especially
with me antagonizing her like this. She would undoubtedly retaliate snon nnce she had gathered herself.
I was about to follow Mr. Holland into his home. Suddenly, Irvin called out to me. “I’ll wait for you out here, Emil
He knew Mr. Holland disliked him. Thus, he wasn’t shameless enough to try and follow me inside.
Iglanced at him blankly but didn’t respond.
I didn’t think he would be able to wait for me outside. This was because his beloved “sister” should be calming down right about
Hence, I believed she would soon think of a way to get Irvin to rush to the hospital in a panic. It didn’t matter how resolute he had been earlier or that he had refused to take her to the hospital.
I had finished my lesson with Mr. Holland and exited his house.
Sure enough, Irvin was nowhere to be found.
Checking my phone, I saw a text he had sent 30 minutes ago. It said he had an urgent work matter to attend to, so he had to
leave.
I scoffed at what I read
Just as I was about to put my phone away, I saw Julianne had texted me. Curious, I opened our chat
The first message I saw was a photo. In it, Irvin was sitting by her bedside and affectionately feeding her. Following the photo “ was a tatmting Inessage,
“Don’t think you’ve won, Emilia. And don’t think Irvin really doesn’t care about me anymore. Look at him now. He’s dumped you and has come here to feed me!“
I raised an eyebrow
Typical Julianne. I certainly hadn’t overestimated her abilities. She had managed to call Irvin over to her.
I stared at the photo and the message she had sent. The longer I did, the happier I became.
Her text was the perfect proof that Irvin had once again cast me aside for her. If I went to the hospital now and caught him in the act , I would surely be able to collect our divorce certificate tomorrow.
Julianne had sent another text while I was internally rejoicing.
“You don’t seriously believe Irvin has transferred all his assets to you, do you? Do you honestly believe he would do so just to get you back? Ha! You’re finished, Emilia! I’m waiting to see just how the you’ll fall. Hahahaha!!

Lexpected her to say more, but surprisingly, she didn’t. Instead, she deleted everything she had sent
Her comment about Irvin transferring his assets made me easy. Something didn’t feel right about it.
However, I was determined to end my marriage. Thus, I gathered some people and headed to the hospital with them to find
Irvin.
He had chosen Julianne over me. It didn’t matter that he hadn’t done so to my face. He had said he would wait for me. But instead, he had left to see Julianne
This was all the evidence I needed to prove that he had cast me aside for her.
More importantly, it also meant I would finally be divorced!
