Chapter 18 The Truth Behind The Designer Seated in the back row, Aidan did not even bother to open his eyes as he exclaimed coldly, “Give it to the dogs, then.” Jonathan paused for a moment before reminding Aidan gingerly, “President Pearson, chocolates are poisonous to dogs.” Aidan was caught at a loss of words by that. … Leanna arrived at the Civil Bureau Affairs one hour before the meeting and patiently waited there.

The Registration of Marriage counter by the side was filled with blissful and happy couples on their way to embark on their journey as husband and wife. In comparison, the counter for processing divorce procedures was significantly deserted with several couples with numb or angry expressions. Consequently, the staff manning the counter were also feeding off from their energy of misery. Meanwhile, Leanna tried hard to come up with a stiff smile upon noticing the scene in front of her.

As such, she decided that it was time for a change as it would be unnecessary to maintain a vengeful expression during their divorce.

That was exactly the reason why he was unable to tolerate her repeated lies and exploitations. If she had suddenly changed her words and admitted that she had lied to him about being pregnant, then he would easily find it within himself to forgive her once more. However, she was totally unrepentant and repeated the same mistake again. He retracted his gaze and scrawled his name with a flourish on the bottom of the page. After Leanna walked out of the Civil Bureau Affairs, she carefully
