Tim followed Ashley’s gaze and saw Chase and Tanya. The Reed and Sterling families weren’t particularly close, and Tim had never been here; he didn’t even know the Sterling residence was nearby.

He smirked. “What are they doing here?”

Ashley looked away.“That road leads only to Emily’s house.”

Tim blinked, then understood.“So, Chase brought Tanya to meet his family?” Before Ashley could say anything, Tim sneered with a hint of anger in his voice.“Your divorce isn’t finalized yet, is it? And he’s already bringing her to his family? Is he that desperate?” It seemed Chase was indeed in a hurry, but Ashley knew he’d tried to introduce Tanya to his family before. However, Emily had forbidden it, and with the other elders‘ opposition, Chase had been forced to back down. In other words, Chase had been waiting for this day for a long time. Now, with the divorce imminent, he wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

Tim looked at her.“By the way, when will your divorce be finalized?”

Ashley shrugged.“I don’t know. I asked Chase, and he said soon.” But it had been a while since she last asked, and she’d heard nothing.

Tim scoffed.“Who knows what he’s planning? He’s the one desperate to divorce you and marry Tanya, yet

he’s the one delaying the divorce papers. Next time you see him, make sure you push him to finalize it. I don’t want to see him again!”

Ashley smiled.“Okay.”

Shortly after returning to the office, Ashley’s phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, she froze, then answered quickly.“Mr. Cook.”

Marshall Cook, Alex Sterling, and Ashley’s grandfather were close friends. Since Ashley moved to this city, her grandfather had brought her with him every time he met Marshall. Basically, Marshall had known her all her life.

Marshall went abroad to recuperate a few years ago and hadn’t been back in years.
