Christian’s tone became frantic. “Shiloh, listen to me! I’ve already found new investors! The company will recover. I really don’t want to divorce you. Where are you? I’ll come pick you up!”
I did not reply. I hung up the phone abruptly before his words could give me a heart attack.
A man like Christian–cheating while pretending to be the perfect, devoted husband- deserved nothing less than severe punishment.
Since Christian refused to sign the divorce agreement, I decided to seek help from someone else.
The best person for the job was Peyton, who was eager to secure her place and give her child legitimacy.
I sent Peyton the divorce agreement along with a simple note: [Get Christian to sign this. It’s your only chance to take my place.]
Whatever methods Peyton used, she succeeded in mailing back a signed divorce agreement.
As I celebrated my newfound freedom, I could not help but feel curious. Why did Christian suddenly change his mind and sign the agreement?
