Some regrets could be remedied, while others could never be!
However, how was she going to make up for her regret with Martin Weiss?
The next day, Kyla arrived at the law firm. They handed her a document. “Miss Corbyn, take a look.
This is the agreement drafted according to Mr. Weiss’s wishes. If there’s something you’re dissatisfied with and want to add, we can do so.”
Kyla opened the document and looked through it.
This divorce agreement was favorable to her. The two children would live with her, and Martin Weiss would pay her a generous sum of child support fees every month. Besides that, the figure would gradually increase as the two children grew up. He was even giving her several properties in Emerald City. It was indeed a generous divorce settlement.
He was also giving the two children five percent of Weiss Group’s shares. She did not need to pay anything or lose anything after the divorce.
If there was any loss, then perhaps… it was the title of Mrs.
Weiss.
Finally, she found Martin Weiss’s signature already in the signature column.
In other words, once she signed the agreement and the lawyer processed the divorce, she and Martin Weiss would be officially divorced.
“Miss Corbyn, do you have anything to add to this divorce agreement? If you have no opinion, you can sign your name and we’ll take care of the rest. If everything goes well, you and Mr. Weiss will be officially divorced tomorrow. The assets and money stated in the agreement will belong to you immediately.”
“I…” Kyla looked at the pen in front of her and suddenly realized how difficult it was to pick it up.
The lawyer waited for some time but did not see Kyla take the pen to sign the papers. Hence, they said, “If you’re dissatisfied with the conditions, you may voice your suggestions. Mr. Weiss has said that he’ll do his best to satisfy you.”
‘But it’s not money, shares, or houses that I want. It’s… Kyla shouted in her head. Suddenly, an answer came to her.
What… What she wanted was him, the Martin Weiss who loved her deeply!
However, maybe she would never see Martin Weiss again.
“Is he… Is Martin Weiss okay?” Kyla could not help asking.
The lawyer hesitated slightly before saying, “Mr. Weiss’s doing okay and is still busy with his work as before.” It was not the case. However, Mr. Weiss had told them to say that everything was fine if Kyla did ask about him.
“Really?” Kyla murmured and looked at the divorce papers before finally saying, “I’d like to amend the divorce papers.”
“Yes, go ahead,” the lawyer replied quickly.
“I accept the shares and child support he wishes to give the children, but I don’t need any alimony. He doesn’t need to give me any properties either. As for the matter of child support, open two bank accounts and deposit the money there. I’ll only withdraw what I need every month. The children can manage the extra money themselves in the future.”
The lawyer froze, not expecting Kyla to make such suggestions. ‘She’s simply rejecting the money! What normal person would do that?’ “The alimony and the properties are Mr. Weiss’s generosity. You don’t have to reject them,” the lawyer said.
“I married Martin Weiss. He owes me nothing, so there’s no need to give me these. I have no reason to take the alimony and properties. Please convey that to him for me. I have no opinion on the rest,” said Kyla.
“A-Alright then. Hold on,” the lawyer said before turning around to enter another room. They called Martin Weiss and told him about Kyla’s requests.
The person on the other end of the line was silent for a long time before saying, “If she thinks it’s a good idea, let’s do it her way.”
“Okay, Mr. Weiss,” replied the lawyer before returning to Kyla and saying, “Miss Corbyn, Mr. Weiss said the agreement can be revised according to your wishes.”
Kyla took a deep breath and said, “Okay, revise the contract, then.”
When Kyla walked out of the law firm, she seemed to be in a trance. She looked down blankly at her hands.
How did that happen? The agreement had been amended as she wanted, but she still hesitated when the lawyer asked her to sign it. Her hand that held the pen would not land on the paper.
Finally, she could only say to the lawyer, “I… want to go back and think about it. I’ll contact you after thinking it through.”
“Okay, you can think about it. I’m sure Mr. Weiss will do his best to satisfy whatever requests you have,” the lawyer said respectfully.
However, the statement did not make her happy at all.
Gifts Once she signed the divorce papers, she would have nothing to do with Martin Weiss anymore.
They would no longer be husband and wife. Even if they have two children together, they probably would not see much of each other.
Kyla felt nothing but an intense tightness in her chest at the thought of it. It was as if something was stirring in her chest, making it throb with pain.
Just then, a car suddenly pulled up beside her. Grace anxiously ran out of it. “Did you sign the divorce papers?”
“Grace?” Kyla froze and looked at her in surprise.
“Have you signed the divorce papers?” Grace urgently asked. She was afraid that she was too late. If Kyla had signed them, she could only intercept the lawyers at the firm!
Kyla said, “Not yet. But how did you know I came here to sign the divorce papers?”
“I went to your house to look for you, but Aunt told me you came to this law firm to sign the divorce papers, so I hurriedly came over. Fortunately, you haven’t signed them yet,” Grace said as she let out a sigh of relief.
“There’s nothing fortunate about it. I should’ve signed the divorce papers. It’s just that… I’m afraid something’s missing from the agreement, so I want to think it over,” Kyla made an excuse and said.
“You’re reluctant.” Grace went to the point and said, making Kyla’s excuse seem weak instantly.
Kyla turned pale slightly. She did not know how to refute her for a moment.
“Kyla, I have something to say to you. Let’s find a place to talk.
Get in the car first,” Grace said as she opened the car door and signaled for Kyla to get on board.
“Grace, if you’re still trying to talk me out of the divorce, don’t. Martin Weiss and I were destined for divorce from the beginning,” said Kyla.
“Kyla, I hope we can find a place to talk no matter what. I won’t stand in your way if you still decide to divorce him.
afterward. I only want you to make a decision that you won’t regret,” said Grace.
Kyla sighed before finally getting into the car.
Grace got in the driver’s seat and drove. She turned the steering wheel and drove the other way.
When Grace’s car pulled into a hospital parking lot, Kyla froze.
It was the hospital where she gave birth. “Why did you bring me here?”
“Because there are things I wish to have you see and words I wish for you to hear. Kyla, come with me.
If you don’t want to be kept in the dark about some things, come with me,” said Grace.
With that said, Grace led the way.
Kyla looked at Grace’s back hesitantly. She seemed to have a premonition that whatever Grace wanted to tell her was something shocking.
‘Is it about Martin Weiss? ‘If so, what do I not know?’
Gifts She felt a sudden surge of frustration mingled with uneasiness. It was a feeling she could not describe. However, she instinctively walked to keep up with Grace.
It was as if her subconscious was deciding for her.
She did not want to be kept in the dark. If there was something she was supposed to know, she wanted to know!
Grace took Kyla to the floor the inpatient hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery department was on.
“Why did you bring me here?” Kyla asked in surprise.
“You’ll find out in a moment,” Grace said as she walked to the attending doctor’s office. As soon as the doctor saw Grace, they immediately came forward and said, “Mrs. Reed, you’re here.”
“Yeah, As I told you the last time, I hope you can tell her the whole story of her labor,” said Grace.
Kyla recognized the doctor as well. He was a leading specialist in hepatobiliary. There was too much burden on her liver when she was pregnant, so she had a specialist consultation.
The doctor was, of course, one of the specialists she consulted. “But…” the doctor said, looking troubled.
