Divorce Clock Ticking by Evangeline Moss

Then, Angela pushed open the car door and stepped out, heading back to the villa. The black Maybach paused for a moment before finally driving away from her in the opposite direction. Inside the car, Kenneth watched Angela's diminishing figure in the rearview mirror, feeling a sense of irritation.

He couldn't understand why the usually gentle Angela was being so stubborn this time. He had even lowered his pride to actively seek her out, yet she still wanted a divorce. However, the immediate concern was to check on Jennifer first. So, Kenneth planned to have a proper conversation with Angela later.

Soon, Angela received a call from Patrick while heading uphill.

"Angela, where are you now?"

Hearing his anxious tone, Angela felt a warmth in her heart.

"I'm halfway up the mountain, on my way back.

"What about Mr. Sinclair?" Patrick asked.

Angela replied emotionlessly, "He left."

"He left you alone halfway up the mountain in the middle of the night? Il come pick you up, wait for me!"

Without giving Angela a chance to refuse, Patrick hung up the phone.

Angela put away her phone and stood at the side of the road, waiting for Patrick.

When he arrived, Angela was kicking stones in boredom.

Hearing the roar of the engine, she looked up to see Patrick's car stopping in front of her.

Patrick opened the door and, relieved to see Angela unharmed, quickly walked over to her, opening the passenger door.

"Angela, get in."

Seeing his considerate gesture, Angela couldn't help but smile, teasing, "No wonder so many girls want to be your girlfriend. You're just too chivalrous." Patrick also smiled, "What about you? Do you think I would make a good boyfriend?"

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Angela played along and nodded. "Of course. You'd definitely be a perfect boyfriend." Patrick seemed disappointed, but he remained smiling and said, "Unfortunately, the person I like doesn't like me back."

Angela gently patted his shoulder in consolation. "What a coincidence. He doesn't like me back, either."

Patrick shook his head with a bitter smile. "Your consolation sucks. Now I feel even worse."
