Trvih had just tucked in a sleeping Julianne. He was preparing to league when I arrived

He came face to face with me when he tied around Different emotions flashed so quickly across his face that couldn’t describe themn.
I smiled patronizingly at him “Let’s talk elsewhere. We shouldn’t disturb your beloved Julianne’s sleep”
With that, I turned and walked away.
Irvin’s expression was so ugly when he heard what I said. But I didn’t care.
He wanted me to stop bringing up his relationship with Julianne. But at the same time, he was also afraid I would. This was because if I no longer cared about their relationship, it also meant no longer cared about him.
Irvin looked at me once we were outside. He then took the lead and spoke first.
“I really had urgent work matters to attend to. That’s why I didn’t wait outside Mr. Holland’s house for you,” he began explaining/21 only came to see Lianne once I had handled it.”
Then, he tried to justify his actions. “And the reason I came to see her was because she had agreed to sell the villa. She’s also agreed to sell off everything I’ve ever given her. Then, she’ll gather the money from the sales and return it to you.”
He continued, “She’ll be going abroad soon anyway. So you won’t have to see each other ever again!”
He spoke with such sincerity. It was a shame I had seen him carefaly tucking the blanket around Julianne . If I hadn’t, I might have believed he was actually indifferent toward her.
But it no longer mattered whether or not I believed him. It also didn’t matter what he felt for Julianne. What was important was that he had violated our agreement
And I told him as such.
“You can say whatever you want. I don’t care. What I do care about is that you’ve breached the terms of our contract. So I’m here to let you know that we’ll go through with finalizing our divorce tomorrow.”
Today was the last day of the cooling–off period after filing for our divorce. So coincidentally, our divorce certificate would be ready for collection tomorrow.
That was why I couldn’t wait to antagonize Julianne. There was no way I was going to wait through yet another cooling–off
period.
“I didn’t violate our agreement, Emi! We agreed that I always had to choose you over Julianne. And I did!” Irvin tried to reason
with me.
He had cited the written terms of our contract, rationalizing that he hadn’t breached them,
“The terms don’t apply only when you’re in an either or situation, I argued. “It’s considered a breach of terms as long as you decide to choose Julianne over ine.
“You told me you would wait for me. But when Julianne called you, you immediately went to her. So it counts as you abandoning me and choosing her!”
“I really had an issue at work to handle, Emi-“He tried to defend his actions again.
However, I didn’t allow him to finish. Taking my phone out, I played a recording for him to hear.
The recording was of their phone conversation from earlier.
Julianne had called Irvin while he was waiting outside Mr. Holland’s house for me. During the call, she had weakly claimed she wasn’t going to make it. Thus, she had implored him to come to the hospital to see her.

At first, Irvin had refused. He had even told Julianne to see a doctor she wasn’t feeling
fing well. He wasn’t a de be of any help. This was the saine line he always said to me when wasn’t feeling well.
But then, Julianne reminded Irvin that he had promised to look after her. She brought up how he had made this promise to Diana on her deathbed. Yet now, he refused to even see her even though she was in pain.
And thus, Irvin caved. That was how he ended up going to the hospital to see Julianne.
Perhaps he had indeed gone to his office to take care of work matters. Even so, the recording clearly exposed that this was just a
Irvin’s face darkened as he fistened to the recording
Earlier, he claimed he had left due to urgent company business. He also claimed Julianne had agreed to sell the villa and all her gifts. That was why he had come to the hospital to see her after liwas done.
But now, the recording clearly revealed that his claims were just a made–up cover. Because of this, he looked as though he had been slapped in the face.
“I’m sure you recognize yours and Julianne’s voice, Irvin. I have more evidence on hand if you refuse to admit it,” I said in a detached tone.
Once I had been released from the detention center, I had hired a professional to hack into Julianne’s phone.

My intention was to gather evidence of her hiring hitmen to kill me. I also wanted to gather evidence of her connection with Travis. That way, I could nail Travis for his involvement in my kidnapping.
And once I did, she would also
