After gathering my thoughts, I finally broke the silence.
"Alexander..."
"Do you remember what you told me when the scandal about lilian's makeup first broke out?"
He frowned slightly,as if trying to recall.
"When the scandal with it first happened..."
"You said I could ask you for anything."
His expression gradually stiffened.
"You had even asked me several times back then "
I finally turned to face him.
"Back then I told you I didn't need anything."
His breathing became noticeably slower.
I could see realization beginning to dawn on him.
"I remember."
His voice was barely above a whisper.
I nodded.
"I want something now."
His brows knitted together.
"What...?"
I took a slow breath, forcing myself to remain calm despite the storm inside my chest.
"This is what I want from you."
I looked straight into his eyes.
There was no anger.
No hatred.
Only quiet determination.
"Alexander..."
"Can you please let us complete the divorce?"
For a moment...
