She let out a soft chuckle. “I don’t need your care, you know. I’m perfectly capable of taking care of myself.”

“Even if you are strong, I still want to be the one to protect you,” Harlan said, gazing at her. “If I’d known what that b*stard Trent was putting you through, I would have–”

Just then, Quinn’s phone buzzed in her pocket. The screen lit up with Trent’s name.

A faint frown tugged at Quinn’s brow as she answered the call. Trent’s irritated voice came through immediately. “Why did you clear out all your things from the mansion?”

“I’ve moved out,” Quinn replied calmly. “If there’s anything of mine left behind, feel free to throw it out. There’s no need to call me about it.”

“Moved out? What are you trying to do, make a statement? Is this your way of protesting? Trent snapped.

“It’s not a protest,” she said, her tone cool and even. “I just don’t want to live there anymore. Also, about the divorce, I don’t want to drag this out. I’m willing to waive the hundred million stated in the agreement, but I need you to finalize the paperwork with me as soon as the cooling–off period ends.”

In three days, the mandatory thirty–day waiting period would be over. As long as Trent agreed, they could file for divorce without issue.

All she wanted now was to sever ties and walk away for good.

“All right. So you want to talk divorce? Then come back to the mansion right now. We’ll settle it,” Trent said before he hung up.

Quinn slipped her phone back into her pocket and turned to Harlan. “I need to go to the mansion.”

“To talk about the divorce with Trent? Then I’ll go with you.” Having overheard part of the call, he wasn’t about to let her face Trent alone.

But Quinn shook her head. “No. This is between him and me. I’ll handle it myself.”

Harlan looked at her, his gaze steady and serious. “You’re really going through with it?”

Quinn glanced at the urns of her parents before her. If they were watching from above, surely they wouldn’t want her to stay bound to a marriage that had long lost its meaning. She drew in a quiet breath.

“Yes,” she said, firm and unwavering.

When Quinn returned to the mansion, she found Trent already seated on the living room co expression clouded.

“Quinn, are you really in that much of a rush to divorce me?” he asked.

She replied, “There’s no reason to keep our marriage going any longer.”

Quinn stared at him, incredulous. So in his mind, as long as the perpetrators pay a price, the victim is supposed to let it go?
