Serena Jennings held the package in her hand.
It was a paper envelope, just the right size to fit three copies of the divorce agreement.
Serena didn’t open the envelope directly in the office, but patiently waited until she got home.
The night was deep and quiet.
The old house on Vornath Street was lit.
Serena sat in front of the desk and pulled out the contents from the envelope.
The bold words "Divorce Agreement" immediately caught Serena’s eye as the title.
Serena flipped through it page by page.
Her memory was decent; she still remembered the content of the previous divorce agreement.
This one was at least identical to the previous one in the beginning.
It seemed that even though Caleb Lockwood had redrafted the divorce agreement for so long after returning, he hadn’t secretly set any traps in the wording.
After a while, Serena finally saw the content at the back of the divorce agreement.
As expected, the content in the back changed.
But the revised clauses were not what Serena expected.
Caleb still included the provision of transferring ten percent of The Lockwood Group’s shares to her after the divorce, but the preconditions had increased, adding many restrictions.
For example, it explicitly stipulated that the ten percent of shares transferred to Serena could not be privately transferred, given away without compensation, or sold for profit after the divorce.
Serena ran her hand through her hair.
She was somewhat irritated.
She didn’t understand why Caleb, who was so angry the last time she agreed to transfer shares to Ian Blackwood, would still draft the divorce agreement with the same content after such a delay.
Last time, Caleb should have been deeply disappointed in her.
He must have felt she betrayed his trust.
After reading the divorce agreement, Serena couldn’t help but sigh.
Caleb would rather set so many airtight restrictions just to give her ten percent of The Lockwood Group’s shares.
Serena knew she shouldn’t overthink it.
Yet she couldn’t help but wonder if Caleb wanted to maintain some sort of connection with her after the divorce, no matter what.
Serena shook her head, took out a pen, and signed her name on all three copies of the divorce agreement.
Beside her, was Caleb Lockwood’s signature.
His handwriting was still so flamboyant and elegant.
Serena thought that Caleb must be very satisfied with this divorce agreement this time and confident that she would agree too, so he signed it in advance.
After tidying up the signed divorce agreements, Serena picked up her phone and coincidentally received a message from Caleb:
Tomorrow morning at ten-thirty, Civil Affairs Bureau.
A concise and clear instruction, very much Caleb’s style.
Serena replied with an "ok," put her phone down, washed up, and went to sleep.
The next day, what seemed like a serene day was not at all peaceful.
Claire Shaw did not come to the office today either.
She was having a major tantrum at home.
"How could Ian Blackwood be so stupid! I didn’t explicitly say I wanted to be on Radiance, but even a fool could understand what I meant, right?"
Claire Shaw violently threw the cushion from the sofa onto the ground.
Originally, her plan was pretty good, using Ian Blackwood to help her get featured in Miranda’s Radiance like Serena Jennings.
