Felix Shaw received the first thing when he returned to T City, a divorce agreement.
It seemed that not even a face-to-face meeting was desired; it was Mia Foster’s lawyer who delivered the divorce agreement to his office.
Looking at the prominent four characters atop the document, Felix Shaw was devoid of emotion and tossed the agreement into the trash can, telling the lawyer, "Go back and tell your client, I refuse to sign."
Then he issued an eviction order and started to bury himself in work.
The issue with the malicious fans had been suppressed because society always craves novelty and tire of the old. An artist under Nicholas Croft’s company announced their romance on their own blog, instantly shattering countless fans’ hearts.
Ever since the announcement of the romance, the couple took a high-profile approach, shopping together, eating snacks and even streaming their gaming sessions together.
All the attention of the rubbernecking public was drawn to them, and no one cared about Elizabeth White’s injury anymore.
Of course, this move was intended to suppress the news of Mia Foster intentionally harming Elizabeth White as a spiteful fan; otherwise, Nicholas Croft would not have allowed his signed artist to make their relationship public, resulting in a significant loss of fans for the celebrity idol who was a recognized benchmark for ideal partnerships.
But when his brother asked for help, even fully aware that it would cause losses for the company, Nicholas Croft still agreed to assist.
In Mia Foster’s office, the lawyer reported Felix Shaw’s reaction to his client, who didn’t make any particular comments, but merely smiled apologetically and said, "Trouble yourself to print another copy,"
Felix refusing to sign the divorce agreement was outside of Mia Foster’s expectations; since there was already another woman and even a baby on the way, it must be true love, at least that’s what Mia Foster believed.
Knowing what Felix Shaw had done, the Foster couple also supported their daughter’s divorce. Their daughter was so outstanding that leaving Felix Shaw, she wouldn’t struggle to find a good man.
Ever since Felix Shaw returned, he had to deal with his mother’s constant nagging after work, lamenting that Mia Foster was a good woman who had taken much to heart for their family and accusing Felix of being like his father, seeking out women...
Melody Zachary would nag while wiping away tears, and during bursts of anger, would even hit her son, urging him to bring his wife back home, and even threatening to return to her hometown if he didn’t.
During this time, Felix Shaw felt quite helpless. Even if he didn’t intervene to appease the situation, Elizabeth White wouldn’t speak to the media about having been hit by his official wife and suffering a miscarriage. But with Mia Foster...
He truly had not considered divorce. Every day at the company, when he saw his father with that woman, blatantly showing their relationship, he felt more pity for his mother. And when Mia Foster was at home, she seemed to bring a lot of joy to his mother, accompanying her on shopping trips and watching soap operas with her in the evening. His mother was also slowly emerging from the shadow of divorce...
Listening to his mother discussing the plotlines with her, Felix Shaw knew in his heart that Mia Foster, the busy workaholic, couldn’t possibly enjoy those dramas; she was only doing this to make his mother happy.
Call it selfish or unwilling to let go, but in any case, he wouldn’t divorce!
She had made a promise herself, to give him a year’s time, and it hasn’t been even half a year yet, why should he let go!
The next day, after finishing the routine morning meeting and just returning to his office, the lawyer appeared again and laid the divorce agreement on his desk, saying, "Mr. Shaw, my client instructed me to convey this to you—if you don’t sign it, she’ll directly file a lawsuit in court."
Faced with the daily punctual delivery of the divorce agreement, Felix Shaw, once again without even a glance, tossed it into the trash can. He flipped open a document and buried himself in work, "Go back and tell your client, if she wants my signature, she’ll have to come in person."
