And since his mom was still so patient with him, that meant everything was okay between them.
Next time, he would spend even more twith her.
Adrian thought happily as he clutched his tablet, heading off to chat with Giselle.
Mila returned to the bedroom, finding it empty.

She hadn't cto the old house today just to attend the Lockwood family dinner with Lysander tomorrow. She had something far more important to discuss.
From her bag, Mila took out a signed divorce agreement.
The one she had left at the Montgomery family residence was still there, untouched. She had printed a new copy, signed it, and brought it with her.
Since Lysander wasn't in the bedroom, he must be in his study, she thought. Wary of running into his parents, she slipped the agreement between the pages of a design book and headed towards the study.
She knocked on the door, and sure enough, Lysander's voice cfrom inside. "What are you doing here? Get out!" Lysander frowned instinctively when he saw Mila enter.
He had always hated her stepping into his workspace, but Mila wasn't about to adhere to the post-marriage rules Lysander had set for her.
She glanced around, ensuring they were alone, before she walked over, pulled the divorce papers from the design book, and laid them on the table calmly.
"Lysander, let's get a divorce." The study fell silent for a moment.
To Mila's surprise, Lysander showed no sign of shock, as if he'd expected this all along.
A realization dawned on her, and she widened her eyes slightly. "You saw the divorce papers I left in the bedroom at Crimson Gardens!" If he had seen them, why hadn't he brought it up? "And what if I did?" Lysander picked up the divorce agreement from the table, his expression cold and laced with mockery. "You have quite the audacity, demanding three percent of the company shares as a divorce settlement, Mrs. Montgomery. Have you lost your mind?" So it was dissatisfaction over the settlement that kept him silent.
But it was her rightful claim.

She pulled a wooden chair and sat facing Lysander's desk ignoring his displeased gaze. "Three percent is already a compromise." "Impossible," Lysander dismissed her coldly.
He fixed his gaze on Mila's bright, fair face, a harsh glint in his sharp eyes. "Mila, we have a prenuptial o m e agreement. If you want a divorce, don't expect to take a single penny. And as for the children, forget about getting any more visitation rights." Seven years of marriage, and this was the ruthless outcome.
Mila let out a wry smile. Although she had already let go of the custody battle, it still stung to hear.
She closed her eyes, calming her emotions, before speaking slowly. "Lysander, once we're divorced, you e can give your lover a legitimate status. I only want three percent of the shares. This doesn't burden you and is actually beneficial." She met Lysander's dark, intense gaze directly.
"Letdisappear from your life. This is what you wanted all along, and now, I'm granting your wish."
