Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 812:

After a brief silence, Marissa raised her head to meet Connor’s gaze, her expression serious. “Connor, we can’t have feelings for each other, no matter what kind. So, divorce is our only path forward. After that, it’s best we part ways for good. Seeing you only brings me shame and makes our shared past feel like a series of ludicrous misadventures,” she declared, her voice steady despite the harshness of her words.

Marissa was decisive, never one to drag out matters, even those of the heart. For someone she could never have, she vowed to resist till the very end.

No sooner had she spoken than Connor’s expression turned even more tortured. He parted his lips to respond, but she didn’t allow him the opportunity, rising to her feet abruptly.

Her sudden movement caught Connor off guard, leaving Domenic, who was beside him, equally bewildered.

“Connor,” she commanded in a tone that brooked no argument. “I need to fly to Cher Snain today for an urgent matter. I’ll be gone for at least a day, maybe more. Use this time to brace yourself. Upon my return, we’re heading to the court for a divorce.”

With those words, she disregarded Connor’s reaction and turned to leave.
