You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 478
Chapter 478 Brother And Sister
Wrenna was waiting inside the Civil Affairs Bureau. In the past, she had always associated this place with happiness. Waiting was always part of the beautiful process. Yet, this time around, she was there for a divorce.
The last time they were there to get their marriage certificate, she had also waited for quite a while. At that time, Damian was equally busy at work, but it was fine with her. In fact, she was so preoccupied with excitement.
Right now, she was still waiting. Suddenly, someone sat down beside her. It was Damian. After having not seen him for a week, he was as handsome and charming as ever. However, he seemed even colder toward her.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.” Wrenna smiled briefly and said, “It’s fine. I just got here too.” It was true that she had not waited that long. This was probably the shortest wait so far. Wrenna found that amusing.
It’s only when we are getting a divorce that I no longer have to wait anymore. “Let’s go over then.”
There were not as many people getting divorced as those who were getting married. It was a pity for such a good-looking couple to be going through a divorce. As Wrenna got up, Damian reached out and pulled her hand. She turned back to look at him. His dark eyes caused a jolt in her heart.
Without waiting for him to speak, she said, “Damian, when we first got married, you did agree that if I ever want a divorce, you will grant me one.”
Just like that, Damian kept quiet. In the end, he released her hand and walked ahead of her in silence. Nothing he had to say would change her mind. Since Wrenna was the one who asked for the
divorce, then she must have thought it through.
Damian was well aware that it was his fault for not being a good husband to her. He had always feared that he would disappoint her.
Yet, in the end, he did exactly that.
Perhaps she had come to the realization that I am not her true love. Maybe she has found someone she truly loves. It could be that tutor whom she spends so much time with, or it could be one of her schoolmates.
Either way, all I am to her is a boring and frigid man who is only interested in work.
With the divorce papers in hand, both Wrenna and Damian walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau together.
Standing outside, Wrenna felt as if a huge weight was lifted off her shoulders.
She smiled gently at her ex-husband.
“Damian, are you angry?”
He was taken aback. Looking at her, he knew he was to be blamed and felt angry, lost, and guilty.
However, nothing of those feelings mattered when he saw her smile.
Wrenna was still a young girl. Even though they were no longer husband and wife, he would still take care of her like how a brother would for a sister.
Damian felt guilty for his frosty behavior earlier on.
Out of the blue, he embraced Wrenna.
Her body tensed up for a moment before she relaxed.
“Damian, now that I won’t be causing any trouble in your life, I hope you will be able to find someone whom you love, who loves you very much. I wish you all the best.”
Damian smiled and let go of her. He rubbed her head and messed up her hair.
“Don’t you worry about me. In the future, when you have a boyfriend, I will have to check on him as a brother. Got it?”
Wrenna pouted. “We’ll see. I’m going back to school first. I think we should find a suitable time and inform our parents together.”
Damian nodded. “Leave that to me.”
It is my fault anyway.
After parting ways and getting into the car, Wrenna’s smile was gone.
Instead, tears kept flowing down uncontrollably.
As for Damian, it was the same. His smile had disappeared.
When he got into the car, there was an uneasy feeling. Johannes did not dare to say anything.
I just saw the both of you smiling at each other and talking about being brother and sister. But after you have gone on your separate ways, you act as if you are in hell? What’s going on?
Mr. Quigley’s mood has changed so quickly.
Damian arranged for their parents to meet and announced the news.
He had initially expected a barrage of rage and condemnation.
To his surprise, both older women were very calm. One looked aloof, and the other sighed with resignation.
There was not much response from Yaala. “All right. Thanks for informing us.”
As for Clarissa, she threw an accusatory glance at her own son and turned to look at Wrenna. She said nothing but sighed.
“Fine then. I knew this was coming. My son is not a very likable person. Wren, it’s all right. You are still our daughter. In fact, since you were young, I have always wanted you to be our goddaughter. Later on, the idea that you might become our daughter-in-law made us change our minds. But it’s all good now. There’s nothing to worry about anymore. We will be your godparents from now on.”
As for Henry, he was a little furious, but since his wife seemed to take it quite well, he suppressed his rage and refrained from saying anything.
Most importantly, his precious little girl was his once again.
Henry could not wait to take his daughter home immediately.
“Wren, come, let’s go home. I have told you before. It is not a good idea to marry at such a young age. You haven’t even finished your degree yet.”
Henry was already nagging at Wrenna and dragging her away at the same time.
Matthew, on the other hand, was the calmest of the lot.
He did not utter a single word.
However, Damian looked a little depressed.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Somewhere in his heart, he had hoped that their parents would kick up a fuss so that he could patch things up with Wren.
Then again, he knew that was a preposterous notion.
After their parents knew about their divorce, they were all fussing over Wrenna. Nobody gave a damn about Damian. It was as if he did not exist.
Clarissa told Wrenna that she would prepare a delicious lunch for her. At lunchtime, she noticed Damian was still around.
“What are you still doing here? Why aren’t you at work? We did not prepare your lunch!”
“Mom, today’s a weekend. It’s my rest day.”
“Forget it! Julia, just make something light for Damian. Let him eat fast and get out of here. The more I look at him, the more upset I become. Aren’t you always busy? You never seem to be around during the weekends. Hurry up and get to the office. In fact, you can go anywhere you want. I don’t wish to see you for the time being.”
After such harsh “abuse” by his own mother, Damian glanced at Wrenna, but there was no reaction from her at all.
There was nothing Damian could do. “Forget it, Mrs. Lawson. I will eat out.”
Just like that, Damian had to work even when he did not want to. When he returned to the company on the weekends, all of his employees had no choice but to put in extra hours as well.
They were even more frustrated than before.
Wrenna also informed her friends about her divorce.
The vacation was not over yet, and everyone was lazing around at home. They were all chatting in the group chat when Wrenna broke the news.
Her friends went into a complete uproar before they eventually accepted the information and calmed down.
“Wren, now that you are divorced, then don’t transfer to another major. Back then, you were planning to do this for Damian, but there’s no need for that now, isn’t it? It would be very tiring!”
Wrenna disagreed.
“I want to see this to the end. It’s just a matter of two years. I want to see if I can complete something without giving up halfway.”
“What? See it to the end? Are you trying to make life difficult for yourself?”
“I suppose so.”
Even Wrenna could not explain why she wanted to carry on with the transfer.
All she knew was that she could never ever be that lazy and indifferent person again.
Xandra sent a message too.
“I support Wren’s decision. Right now, she is no longer doing things that others want her to do. Since this is what she wants, then she should go ahead and do it.”
Now that Wrenna was thinking for herself, Xandra was more supportive than before.
Wrenna smiled. ”Thank you, Xandra.”
“Wren, there’s no need to be so formal among friends. When school starts again, let’s go out and have some fun. This time around, please don’t come out with a sulky face. Now that you are single again, you should be happy. Understand?”
“Was I unhappy in the past?”
Dora asked: “What do you think?”
‘All right. It’s my bad. I will change and be better in the future.”
“That’s more like it. Oh yes. By the way, I’ve fallen in love with this cutie. He’s so handsome. Wren, do you know anyone in showbiz? This guy is part of a new band. If you have any connection, go take a look. He’s so drop-dead gorgeous. Who knows? You might end up falling in love with him.”
“What cutie?”
“Look at the photo…”
Oh really? Let me see how handsome he really is.
In the end, their focus turned to the latest eye candy in showbiz news. No matter what, Wrenna was still a young lady and she was still herself after the divorce.
Both Damian and Wrenna had no intention to keep their divorce a secret.
Those who were keen to know would eventually find out.
Stella was one of those people.
“Divorced? They actually got a divorce?”
At first, Stella was in shock, but soon after, she burst out into laughter. She seemed pleased and happy about it.
“Ah hahaha! They are finally divorced. Wrenna, it serves you right!”
She was so thrilled by the news that she had forgotten about Burnham who was next to her.
When Stella finally realized it, her smile was replaced by tears all of a sudden.
Her erratic behavior made her look pitiful, but at the same time, it seemed that she had ulterior motives as well.
Burnham noticed the dramatic change in her and said nothing.
