Jarrod strode in from outside, wrapped in a sleek black overcoat. His features were sharp and refined, his eyes cool and unreadable as they settled on Elodie.
There was nothing in his expression that hinted at the usual emotions one might expect before a divorce.
Behind him trailed Maurice, along with another man whose polished demeanor suggested he was no ordinary guest.
Maurice clapped the man on the shoulder. "Cousin, I'll leave the rest to you. Make sure you go over the divorce terms with Jarrod."
The moment Maurice heard that Jarrod wanted a divorce, he'd immediately contacted his cousin a lawyer renowned for securing the best outcomes in divorce and asset division cases. In Maurice's mind, after all the years Elodie had clung to Jarrod, she'd surely ask for the moon now that the marriage was ending. So, he'd called his cousin in, hoping to rein in any outrageous demands she might make.

The new arrival turned to Elodie, giving a courteous nod. "Ms. Thorne, good afternoon. I'm Albin, Mr. Silverstein's attorney."
Elodie returned his greeting with a polite nod.
At her side, her own attorney, Baxter, stood up in surprise when he recognized the man. "Albin, it's been a long time."
Albin acknowledged him with a brief smile. The two were old acquaintances from the legal circuit.
Elodie glanced at Baxter, who leaned over to quietly explain, "Albin was my mentor back in law school. He runs his own firm now. Usually handles high-stakes financial cases, so... this might not be easy."
Elodie understood immediately. When Baxter said "not easy," what he really
