In her anxiety, Claudine flailed her hands and accidentally scratched Damian’s face.
“Miss-”
A sharp pain made Damian instinctively lower his hand to touch his face.
Claudine took the opportunity to snatch the box back.
Damian looked at the blood on his hand, then at the culprit across from him, who didn’t care at all about his injury, and his brows furrowed tightly.
“Claudine!”
His cold voice made Claudine frown as well.
It was only then that she noticed Damian’s face had been scratched by her fingernail, leaving a bloody mark.
She glanced down at her nails. They really needed trimming; otherwise, if she scratched an artifact while restoring it, that would be a disaster.
Claudine opened her bag and rummaged through it.
Damian thought she was looking for a bandage for him, thinking that after all, he was the one who tried to look at her things first, and she hadn’t done it on purpose.
Damian was still waiting for Claudine to give him a bandage, but instead, she took out a wet wipe, cleaned the blood off her fingers, and tossed it straight into the trash can.
She turned and walked toward the elevator.
Damian stood where he was.
This woman… she really didn’t care about him at all now!
Claudine entered the elevator and turned to see Damian still standing there.
“Aren’t you coming?”
Inside the elevator, the distance between them was vast.
After leaving the hospital, Damian saw Claudine walking in another direction.
“You’re not coming back with me?”
Claudine tossed the box into the trash can and said, “I drove here.”

Belmont Villas.
The two of them arrived almost one after the other.
It was already late at night.
Claudine was actually very tired today, but the matter of divorce needed to be settled.
She got out of the car, took out her phone, and snapped a selfie with the villa at Belmont Villas in the background.
Damian happened to see this scene as he got out of the car.
“What are you doing?”
After sending the photo, Claudine put away her phone.
“Nothing, just sending my mom a photo so she knows I’m back.”
A shadow fell over Damian’s face.
“You came back here just to appease your mom?”
His tone was icy, and for a moment, even the air around them seemed to freeze.
Claudine knew he was angry.
But this only made her even more confused.
What was he angry about!
Did he really think she came back because she wanted to live with him again!
“Damian, let’s talk about the divorce! Or is your ‘wife‘ in the villa right now, and it’s inconvenient for me to go in?
If that’s the case, we can talk right here!
“Just like I wrote in the divorce agreement, I only want a third of your assets, that’s not much!”
Damian had still been angry, but when Claudine mentioned ‘that wife,‘ he suddenly understood.
In the end, she still minded Audrey.
As for the divorce, it was just her being jealous and throwing a tantrum!
“I’ve told you many times, she won’t affect our lives!
Besides, she doesn’t live here!
“I know you’ve been having issues with Darla lately. She won’t be staying with us for a while, so you can relax.
“I heard you’re planning to apply for a PhD?
“There’s no need to go through all that trouble. Just focus on being ‘Mrs. Barrette.‘ I’ve already unfrozen your card,
