LittleNovelChapter 249
This divorce agreement was exactly the sas the one Stella had wanted last time, where she
asked for an equal division of assets.
But Haynes wasn't having it. He wanted her to walk away with nothing.
Stella, tired of the entanglement, finally agreed.
However, on the day they were supposed to meet at the courthouse, he stood her up.
Stella realized something important: if she didn't fight for herself, no one else would.
Haynes's face darkened. "Stella, is it fun for you to keep using divorce as a threat? Just because |
missed one appointment, you have to raise a fuss over and over again?"
"If you're really that upset about it, tomorrow... no, right now, we can go out. You can choose where
to go."

Stella looked at Haynes as if he had completely lost his mind.
"A date? Haynes, are you out of your mind? | asked you to meet at the courthouse
to finalize our divorce, and you think | wanted to go on a date?"
Thinking of Rachel's interference and Jasper's mocking, Stella guessed that Jasper might have said something to
Haynes.
She mocked, "I say | want a divorce, and you all think I'm trying to get your attention. | ask you to meet at the
courthouse, and you think it's a ploy for a date."
"If that's how you interpret plain English, then letask you this..."
Stella's eyes, strikingly clear, fixed on Haynes's handsface.
"What will it take for you to believe that | genuinely want a divorce from you?"
The question hit Haynes like a sledgehammer, leaving him momentarily stunned. Seeing his silence, Stella
continued, her tone calm.
"Of course, you can keep thinking I'm playing games to get your attention, but just so you know... I'm not signing
Jasper's release papers."
"Even if his tin holding isn't long, having a record is enough to shake the foundation of his career in your
prestigious family."
Haynes's eyes narrowed, "Stella, how can you be so cruel?"
"Cruel?" Stella chuckled without anger. "Wasn't it cruel when your dear friend insulted me, hurled abuses, and
went on a rampage? Now that he's facing the consequences, you callcruel?"
Though Stella was smiling, her eyes seemed to have frozen over.
"If fairness is cruelty, then maybe you shouldn't live in this world, because it would poison you."
Haynes locked eyes with her, his gaze intense and overbearing.
"Stella, are you absolutely sure you want to divorce me?"

Stella met Haynes's gaze without flinching, "Absolutely."
"Fine." Haynes nodded, "The sterms as before: you leave with nothing, and I'll sign the divorce
papers."
Stella couldn't help but laugh at Haynes's condescending attitude.
"Haynes, you're the one who needsnow, not the other way around. If you want to sign and end
this amicably, that's great."
"If you don't, it's all the sto me. We can take this to court. But your best buddy might have to
endure smore hardship."
"1 heard Jasper scratched himself up pretty badly, almost ruining his face. Even if the wounds heal,
he might end up with scars."
"After all, his face got into contact with sof Mr. Burton's concoctions, and sof those are
pretty toxic."
"Jasper nearly tore Mr. Burton's clinic apart, and now Mr. Burton can't stand him and refuses to
make an antidote."
