After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 408 Chloe's Determination

Emma was shocked by her words and couldn't recover.

Rosie beside her was ecstatic.

Divorced?

That meant if she pursued Michael now, it would be reasonable and not intruding into someone else's relationship?!

Chloe didn't bring much; she just packed away a few clothes she often wore and put away Wendy's photo.

When she reached into the coat pocket, she unexpectedly touched the wedding ring she had when she married Michael. Because they didn't have a wedding ceremony, he just bought a random diamond ring for her.

Later, she sold it to Lucy.

She hadn't worn it since he bought it back last time.

She casually put it in a coat pocket and didn't notice it was missing.

It turned out to be in a coat pocket she rarely wore.

Sure enough, things that didn't belong to her would never belong to her.

She took it out and examined it carefully.

She had to admit, even though it was bought randomly, it was very beautiful.

She sighed lightly and placed the ring on the bedside table, considering it returned to its rightful owner.

Emma saw Rosie off and came up, feeling very sad when she saw her packing.

"Mrs. Shawn, are you really leaving?"

Chloe turned around. Emma had always been kind to her and never looked down on her in the villa.

"Emma, it's agonizing to prolong an unhappy marriage. You should be happy for me."

Seeing Chloe's smile, Emma couldn't force herself to smile and felt mixed emotions.

"Actually, Mr. Shawn has changed a lot. Why not give Mr. Shawn another chance, Mrs. Shawn?"

Chloe's head shook as she spoke, "Having the heart means not needing to be taught. But if they don't have it, teaching won't make a difference. I waited for him for three years, but I can't wait any longer." Emma took a deep breath, knowing that the situation was irreversible now, and she couldn't persuade her anymore.

"Then, Mrs. Shawn, have you found a place outside? After divorce, you can't suffer yourself..."

Chloe's eyes were slightly moist.

Emma was older than Wendy and hearing her caring words made her feel like she was seeing Wendy again.

She sniffed and controlled her emotions.

"Don't worry, everything is arranged. Emma, I'll leave first!"

Emma shed two tears but could only watch her leave with a small suitcase.

The door closed, and everything returned to calm.

The next day, Chloe was awakened by James' phone call.

"Chloe, get up for work. Don't you remember we have an event to attend today?"

She rubbed her hair and sat up, somewhat annoyed. "What event starts at seven in the morning?"

"I'm outside your place. Come out."

Chloe paused. "Which entrance?"

"Lotus Manor."

James spoke straightforwardly.

"You've got the wrong place. I don't live at Lotus Manor. Give me the address, I'll come over."

James muttered under his breath, then moments later, the garage door of the villa opened, and a Rolls-Royce slowly emerged.

The two cars aligned and Michael lowered his window.

"Didn't Chloe tell you she moved?"

His tone carried a hint of provocation.

"I know, I just wanted to annoy you. I'm leaving!"

James retorted, gunning the engine and speeding away.

Michael fumed with anger.

He wondered if Chloe's unborn child truly belonged to James.

So he picked up his phone and messaged her.

But he was blocked by her online, so he resorted to texting.

He realized his number was blocked too.

By the time he arrived at Shawn Heavy Industries, Michael was visibly upset.

Asher observed, remembering Michael's tears over his wife the day before. He felt discomfort.

"Michael, are you and Chloe... really divorced?" Asher asked cautiously.

The question struck a nerve with Michael, earning him a cold glare.

"I thought Chloe was hesitant before. Why is she so determined this time? Should you... try to appease her?" Asher suggested.

Michael slammed his phone on the table. "Appease what? She's blocked all my contacts."

"Maybe try PayPal comments?" he suggested tentatively.
