Cecilia paused, turning back to look at him.

Seeing his handsome face filled with a conflicted expression, it seemed like he had made up his mind.

"Let's go, let's get this done. We've got about ten minutes, if we hurry, we should be able to get all the paperwork sorted." Owen hung his half-eaten burger along with the bag on the front of his bike.

He took out the marriage certificate and all the necessary documents, grabbed Cecilia's hand, and led her into the city hall.

His mind had been elsewhere during his previous two visits to that place.

He hoped that his third visit would be filled with joy.

And it would be the last time!

When they exited the city hall, they were single again.

The past of being forced into marriage evaporated the moment they received the divorce papers.

For others, divorce might mean an end.

But for Owen and Cecilia, divorce wasn't an end, but a new beginning.

Looking at the much more relaxed Cecilia, Owen suddenly realized that this divorce was like untying a knot in her heart, lifting a burden off her shoulders.

If he truly loved her, he had to make her happy.

Their lives were still long, and he was confident that he could marry her again!

"Cecilia."

As Cecilia was about to head to the bus stop, Owen called out to her.

"What's up?"

Owen smiled at her. His smile was as warm as the spring breeze and almost made Cecilia's heart flutter.
