Chương 93: A Replaceable Object

Amelie walked through the long hallways of the mansion and with every step she took, her heart felt more and more at ease. She stopped right before the door to Richard's study and closed her eyes, taking a few deep breaths to steady her nerves. 

'I could barely breathe these past few days but now... aside from the strange sensation emptying my lungs, I feel absolutely fine.'

As she walked inside the room, Amelie's assumptions were instantly confirmed. Richard was sitting behind his desk together with a man she had never seen before, but judging from his looks and the thin stack of papers before him, he was an outside attorney hired by her husband to put an end to their marriage. 

"Come, take a seat."

Richard's voice was firm but Amelie could tell that he was nervous too. She took a seat opposite from him and fixed her sharp eyes on her husband. Today, she wanted him to finally understand that there was nothing left for him to torment her with.
