Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

When I heard that, all I felt was disgust. However, I didn't let my anger get the best of me and simply looked at Claudia and calmly told her the truth.

I said, "I am here to get the marriage certificate. Go retrieve it so that we can get divorced as soon as possible."

I knew that everyone in the family wanted Nicholas to break up more than even he and I did.

Claudia's expression shifted from shock to glee. She turned to Nicholas to confirm everything by asking, "Is that true? I'll go look for it right now, Nick."

Claudia was so eager that she was going to rush out of there right away. However, a huge palm suddenly landed on her head. Claudia turned around and stared at Nicholas in confusion. "After the divorce, I will have a baby with Jasmine."

Nicholas was talking to Claudia, but his gaze was fixated on me. It seemed he wasn't satisfied with how calm I was. In fact, he uttered those words through gritted teeth.

"Oh," replied Claudia. She shifted her gaze down in disappointment and requested, "Ariana, please leave the room. I need to sleep now. I have a class tomorrow morning."

I was furious about Nicholas throwing a wrench into my plan. I couldn't resist saying, "What's wrong? Your brother is about to have a baby. Aren't you happy?" "Of course I'm happy," answered Claudia instinctively.
