save was cumpletely stummed like he couldn’t process what Ed just said:
When did Lever agree to a divorce?”
Wan, that’s imposside. I never signed anything how could you even get divorced without me?”
of comas best forgotten about the mutual divorce agreement we’ll signed years ago.
Thick my head coldly “Tsn’t this exactly what you wanted?”
Now you can be with hey out in the open.”
Jy’s face lit up with joy as she grabbed Grayson’s hand: “Gray, she’s right! You’ve been complaining about her forever. Now you’re finally free!”
Let’s be together officially! We could get our marriage license today and have the wedding tomorrow, couldn’t we?”
but instead of going along with it, Grayson’s frown deepened. He pulled his hand away and said sternly: “I told you this has nothing to do with you. I was just doing you a favor, so don’t push it and make my wife get the wrong idea.”
Then he softened his tone and turne me: “Did she say something to make you think…?”
“She’s just humanure, talks nonsense. Don’t listen to her.”
“I swear on my life, there’s absolutely nothing between us.”
He studied my face, and when I didn’t react, he sighed and picked up the divorce decree from the ground, tossing it in a nearby trash can: “Alright, enough with the jokes. Let’s just forget this happened.”
“Come on, let’s go home.”
He reached out to take my hand.
Ljerked away from him.

Seeing that I was in good spirits and hadn’t been swayed by Grayson’s attempts to win me back, they all relaxed.
“Seafood! Today, we’re definitely gonna make the you treat us big time!
“Yeah, no holding back on that credit card?”
Tignored Grayson’s pale face, straightly led my team into the restaurant.
They made a big show of ordering tons of food, but I noticed they were actually avoiding the really expensive items
My heart warmed. These girls were always like this–tough talk but soft hearts
Being with them felt so natural and comfortable
So much better than dealing with someone like Grayson, who was all sweet words but cold actions

What good were pretty promises anyway?
If you really love someone, you show it through your actions.
After all, nice words cost nothing–they’re just moving your lips.
Real commitment takes actual effort.
We settled in at our table, laughing and chatting.
But instead of leaving, Grayson had the nerve to follow us inside.
