Silver's POV

I never thought that at a young age, I would be requesting a divorce from my husband. I had to explain to Marco that this was a contract marriage and he asked for a copy of the contract to see if there was any clause that prevented me from divorcing him.

Luckily, Elliot hadn't thought about me leaving him and there wasn't anything listed that said anything about it. It only listed what each of us would get out of this agreement. Once he went through the contract, he pulled out his computer from his briefcase and started on the divorce agreement. My heart was in shambles the entire time and I could hardly even lift my head to look at either of them. "What do you want from this divorce?" Marco asked, his eyes never leaving his computer.

"Peace," I told him, almost sleepily.

He smirked and finally glanced up to look at me.

Obviously, you'll get to keep everything he's ever bought you and-" "I don't want anything," I blurted, mortified that he even thought that I would.

Marco raised his brows, confused.

"What?" He asked, clearly shocked.

"I don't want any of his things or his money. I want to leave with the clothes I had when I got here and with nothing else,' I told him with finality.

He glanced at his cousin who only shrugged one shoulder.
