Chapter 146 Let Go

Deborah was full and fell asleep lying on the sofa.

She answered the phone in a daze and suddenly heard Ashton agree to divorce. She thought she was

dreaming.

She almost woke up with a start and immediately put the phone closer to her eyes. Then, she saw an

unknown number displayed on the screen.

She had blocked the number that Ashton had used to call her not long ago.

Deborah felt that she might actually be dreaming right now, so she asked, “Who are you?”

This time, Ashton’s voice became clear. “Debby, 1 said that I agreed to divorce you.”

Deborah was furious. “What’s wrong with you?”

Less than an hour ago, he called her and said that he would never divorce her. He even threatened

that he would sue Joseph and destroy him.

Ashton said in a deep voice, “I’m serious. I agree to the divorce, and I won’t make things difficult for

you.”

Deborah didn’t know what was on Ashton’s mind. She couldn’t help but sit up from the sofa and ask

with some expectation, “Do you have some kind of mental disorder?”

There was silence for a while. Deborah thought Ashton was finally going to show his true colors, but

then he said, “If you don’t want to get a divorce, then forget it.”

Deborah suddenly thought, “Why should I care about his problem and purpose?”

Anyway, as long as she could get the divorce certificate as soon as possible, everything would be just

fine.

If he put forward some confusing conditions before the divorce, she only needed to be more careful not

to agree to those unreasonable ones.

In order to avoid more trouble, Deborah responded immediately, “Then tomorrow morning it is. The

Civil Affairs. Bureau opens at 8:30 am, and we will meet by then.”

Ashton found these words a bit familiar. He suddenly remembered the day Deborah turned 20 seven

years ago.

That’s what Deborah said when she urged him to get up early in the morning to get married.

Seven years ago, they were the first to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married. And today, seven

years later, she was in a hurry to get divorced.

Alyssa was right. Deborah had been disappointed in this marriage for a long time and only wanted to

get rid of it quickly.

Ashton thought of what Alyssa had said and made up his mind. So he didn’t plan to make things too

difficult for Deborah.

He responded, “Okay, I will be there on time at 8:30 am. You reissued your documents three years ago,

didn’t you? Remember to bring them all. Also, I hope you stay in Richmond after the divorce.”

Deborah agreed without thinking. “No problem. I won’t leave Richmond in the future.”

However, it was just her words, not an actual promise.

Once she divorced Ashton, she could go wherever she wanted. How could Ashton control her again?

Ashton didn’t expect her to agree so readily. Thinking that she would always be in Richmond in the

future, he felt a lot

more at case,

Afraid that he would regret it, Deborah hurriedly said, “I’ll wait for you at 8:30 tomorrow morning.” Then,

she hung up the phone directly.

Ashton stared at the phone screen and heard the beep sound of the phone being hung up.

He could even teel her great surprise and excitement through the phone.

Jett stood aside, a little stunned.

When Ashton got up and was about to go upstairs, he couldn’t help asking, “Sir, what about the matter

of suing Joseph and inciting public opinion to destroy his career…”

Ashton walked upstairs without turning back and said softly, “Forget about it.”

Jeff was stunned for a long time before he replied, “Okay.”

He looked upstairs again, but Ashton had long gone.

Jeff suddenly felt that girls indeed cared about their mothers a lot.

In the future, with Joseph and a grown-up daughter, Deborah’s hard life would probably become much

better.

As soon as Deborah hung up the phone, she immediately got up and walked quickly into the

bathroom.

She had been paying attention to her health for the past few years. She had never used cold water in

such cold.

weather.

Deborah knew she was not in good health, and Joseph was always busy with work. If she got sick, he

would be worried.

and waste much time accompanying her.

But now she was a bite overexcited. She directly bent over to the sink and washed her face with cold

water.

The cold water hit her face, and she couldn’t help shivering.

And now, Deborah was finally wide awake.

She stared at herself in the mirror and smirked.

“Ashton wanted to divorce me. He actually agreed! Haha!”

As soon as she finished the divorce process tomorrow, she would date Joseph in public.

Before she could be any happier, her mobile phone on the coffee table outside rang.

Deborah’s heart went cold, as if a bucket of icy water had been poured on her head.

She thought, “Damn. I forgot to block his number.”

This call was very likely from Ashton, who was about to regret his decision.

Deborah dawdled in the bathroom, not wanting to go out.

After a long time, the phone was still ringing. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Deborah reluctantly walked out and picked up the mobile phone, but the call was from Joseph.

It turned out to be a false alarm.

Deborah immediately pressed the answer button, and Joseph’s voice came from the other side.

“Debby, are you asleep?”

Deborah was in a good mood, and her tone was full of joy “Not yet.”

Joseph said softly. “I just contacted Steven for help. He introduced me to a good lawyer who is best at

handling divorce lawsuits. Now, I’ll give you his number…….”

It was pretty weird that Steven looked easy to get along with on the surface, but his temper had always

been very cold, and he was by no means a warm hearted person

This time, things were different. Steven took the initiative to call Joseph, jokingly said that he wanted to

get some business for his lawyer friend, and introduced a lawyer to Joseph.

However, everyone knew that the lawyer was well known in the industry, and he had never been short

of business.

There were countless people who wanted to ask him to file a lawsuit.

But anyway, this was excellent news, so Joseph came to inform Deborah immediately.

As Joseph spoke, he sent Deborah a message with that lawyer’s number.

Deborah couldn’t help laughing out loud. “This may not be necessary. Ashton just called me and said

that he agreed to divorce me, and we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the formalities

tomorrow morning.”

Joseph was stunned for a moment. “What?”

Deborah was delighted. “I’m also surprised. But no matter what, I’ll try it tomorrow. If I can get divorced

directly, 1 won’t have to worry any more about it. If he lied to me, I wouldn’t suffer any loss by going

there.”

After all, if Deborah really wanted to sue for a divorce, it would be a lot more complicated and take a lot

of time.

It could also involve the fact that Deborah had lived with Joseph for three years while married, and this

plot was no

small matter.

It is still hard to say what the outcome of the lawsuit would be and what consequences it would bring.

Joseph obviously didn’t believe it. “Ashton really said that? He said he was willing to divorce you and

nothing else?”

Deborah repeated what Ashton had said.

“He only asked me to stay in Richmond but didn’t ask me to sign a contract to make a promise. In

short, I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow, and let’s talk about the rest later. I will be careful.”

No matter how Joseph thought about this, he felt that Ashton’s sudden change of attitude was too

strange.

Thus, it was impossible for him to feel at ease. After thinking for a while, he said, “I’ll go with you

tomorrow

morning.
