The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314

“There’s no need to write them.”

He had been so cold and distant at the time.

But she thought he was just busy. Holding the pile of invitations, she proudly showed them to him, her smile bright and full of anticipation. “Cedrick, I know you don’t have time to write them, and I’m free anyway, so I’ll do it. Look, I spent all afternoon filling in our names. Once we decide on the hotel, the specific time, and the guest list, I can just fill in the rest.”

She had really filled out the “from” line on every single invitation.

Cedrick, Lucille.

Stroke by stroke, neat and tidy, without a single connected letter, showing how carefully and seriously she had written them.

“How many relatives and friends do you have on your side?

On my side, it’s probably just high school friends, but our high school friends are the same people. How many friends do you have from after you started working?”

He had so much he wanted to say to her. “Lucille, I honestly never thought about divorcing you. I said I’d spend my life with you, and I’ve never changed my mind.”

Lucille didn’t want to hear these words anymore. They were meaningless and just made her feel tired. How could she make it clear that she really didn’t want to go on?

“We’re already here, let’s not talk about this. It’s pointless now.”

She walked firmly toward the entrance of City Hall, using her actions to show that she would never turn back.
