12.4 % Chapter 18 Chapter 18 I was about to call you and invite you to lunch .
I gave him a smile .
Well , it just so happened that I happened to have bought lunch .
He grinned and kissed the bridge of my nose .
Youre a star , he remarked .
We sat down on the couch and began eating .
He deemed me suspicious eyes .
If this is to work , I must force him to refrain from asking questions , as I have been doing for the last three months .
How is Candice doing ? You do realize that Candice will always be Candice .
Both of us laughed .
I removed the divorce papers from my bag and presented them to him .
Can you tell me what this is ? He inquired , and I refrained from looking at him .
The divorce papers I have already signed .
I only require your signature to become a divorcee .
He laughed , but I could see a slight scowl on his face .
To be honest , I have no idea what the problem is , but this has to be done .
He grinned .
Are you certain you dont need this enticing husband ? I froze for a brief moment .
I looked him directly in the eyes , something I had avoided doing for months .

And each time I steal a glance , I see something new .
I see passion and befuddlement staring directly into his silver eyes .
Im constantly getting lost in them .
However , we must sign the divorce papers .
Well , my husband needs to marry his legitimate wife .
He smiled and proceeded to sign the papers .
Did you bring me noodles in order to convince me to sign the divorce papers , ex wife ? With only a bowl of noodles , I can get away with anything .
Candice walked into the room as we were laughing .
What are you celebrating , guys ? Weve just finalized our divorce .
I locked my gaze on Candice .
I knew she would be unhappy , as she would now be forced to marry Dante .
Im not sure why shes with Dante if she cant marry him .
Why does she claim to love him when she is incapable of committing to their relationship ? Exactly what is it that Candice desires from Dante ? Is there a secret motive at work ? It is irrelevant to me .
I smiled as I brushed everything aside in the back of my mind .
At this point , you may wed your prince charming .
I walked away with the divorce papers .
12.8 Chapter 18 DANTE I intended to invite you to lunch , but Im afraid Im going to have to do so alone now .
Given that youve eaten , Ill see you at work on Monday .
I had to return home at this point .
My mother is ill .
Candice stated .
All right , babe , take care of yourself .
1 sat on my couch , unsure of why I was experiencing this emotion .
Im meant to be overjoyed that Im divorced .
What is it about it that feels wrong ? I know Ive always loved my best friend and will continue to do so even more than I adore my own girlfriend .
I exercised self control for a long period of time .
After sleeping with her three months ago , I occasionally slept with Candice but frequently shouted her name in my brain .
Should I advise her not to file for divorce in order for us to begin a family together ? Would she appreciate that ? I can tell by the way she looks at me .
Im sure she has feelings for me as well .
Im not sure if this is love or simply friendship .
I believe I need to speak with my mother .
She provides the best guidance , I took my car keys , but the door to my office sprang open , revealing my queen .
Dont tell me , but Lola has already provided you with food .
I chuckled .
You know , Im powerless to refuse her food .
I was on my way to pay you a visit .
What do you desire ? Do you wish to discuss Lola ? How did you figure that out ? Yes , Id like to speak with you about Lola .
I didnt come into this world yesterday , son .
You two love one another but are afraid to reveal your affections to one another .
Isnt it difficult to share a bed with her now that youre aware you might cross the line ? Are you afraid because she was your younger sister ? Mom ! What ? Im aware that you may have already crossed the line .
I observe your gaze on her .
What am I trying to convey ? Ive been observing your gaze on her since she was sixteen .
Thats when I realized you had a thing for her .
Why dont you ask yourself why I proposed that you marry her on that particular day ? That is because I believed you two would take a chance and make it work .
Today , she handed me the divorce papers , which I signed , but Im not happy about it , mom .
I have a distinct impression that something is wrong .
You bumbling idiot .
You should have informed her that you desired to meet the conditions .
Lola , as far as I am aware , will never expect anything from you .
However , that would be an ideal justification .
In any case , you have already signed .
So , son , do you love Candice ? I do, but not in the same way that I genuinely love Lola .
