Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Serenity continued to observe the couple mischievously. This woman was probably a regular at blind dates while the man was inexperienced, perhaps this was his first time since he was quite reserved the entire time.
“What does the divorce between the President of Grant Group and his wife have to do with us?” asked the man instead of answering her question.
“A good man like John left with his wife. This means that you men are all bad.”
Upon hearing the obvious name, Serenity stood up immediately and said to Wendy Jones, “Mrs. Wendy, 1 have something to do. 1’11 be leaving first. Goodbye.”
“Alright,” said Wendy softly when she saw the slight panic in Serenity’s face.
Serenity quickly walked out of the restaurant. After taking a few steps, she could still hear the couple arguing vaguely behind her.
The man said, “Don’t kill everyone with one bamboo pole. The President of Grant Group was the one who divorced his wife. So perhaps the problem lies with his wife…”
There was a magazine rack in the corner of the secretary’s office, stocked with the latest issues of relevant newspapers and magazines daily. When Serenity reached her desk, she walked over to the rack.
She rummaged through today’s newspapers. Miki was about to go to the pantry for a glass of water when she saw Serenity’s weird behavior. “What are you looking for?”
“Today’s newspaper.” Serenity was still anxiously rummaging through the papers.
“It’s on my desk,” said Miki. “I just finished reading it and haven’t had time to put it back yet.”
Serenity instantly tidied up the book rack and took the newspaper from Miki’s desk. The headline on it was the news of John and Selena’s divorce.
She returned to her seat and searched the web. The top trending topic was also the news of their divorce, but the reason was unknown.
Many people were speculating about the reason for their divorce, but they were just public opinions that had not been confirmed.
She browsed through the comments below and did not get any useful information either. They were a mess of guesses.
The two of them had been married for more than three years. How could they divorce just like that? There had been no signs of a failing marriage.
She took her phone and looked for Selena’s number. Since it was still lunch hour, Selena might be available.
With such a big incident happening all of a sudden, Serenity suspected her sister to not have had much sleep.
The call was quickly picked up. “Sis, why did you and Brother-in-law get divorced?”
“We weren’t suitable, so we divorced.” Selena had repeated this sentence many times throughout the morning.
Including Serenity’s call, she had received eight calls that morning, all asking why she had gotten a divorce.
Benjamin was the first to call her, furious about her sudden divorce. He asked her to return to Rivers residence that night.
Helena called to ask about the reason for the divorce and Selena had given the same answer. Helena sighed heavily and hung up without saying anything else.
The rest of the calls came from some of her close friends. They had called to comfort her and tell her to take it easy.
Serenity was a little doubtful of her answer.
“Serene, you’ve always wanted to know why John married me, right?” asked Selena suddenly.
“Does it have anything to do with your divorce?” Serenity was stunned.
“Yes,” said Selena frankly.
Serenity remained silent. Back then, their marriage was very sudden, and now their divorce came just as suddenly.. What was going on?
