Unlike Mason's astonishment, Lucas showed no sign of surprise. His deep, unreadable eyes remained fixed on Evelyn as if lost in thought.

Evelyn had already set the pen down, and now, she understood why Lucas had given her a new divorce agreement. He wanted to control the rules of the negotiation to ensure that the terms were entirely in his hands from the very beginning.
