Chapter 7: A Deal
Rain felt like her head was about to explode when she woke up late the next morning. She was suffering from the worst hangover of her life, but she couldn't let it stop her for now. Last night, Sanya had told her everything she knew about Alexander, so Rain then quickly drafted a sample marriage agreement for him.
Quickly, she got up and got ready, remembering that she had to meet with Alexander over lunch that day. After getting ready, she didn't waste any time and drove to their designated meeting place. It was a traditional restaurant with private rooms, something that would be useful for their coming talks.
Upon arrival, she mentioned her name to the manager who then escorted her to the room where Alexander was already waiting, casually sipping his tea.
Entering, Rain politely greeted him. "Good afternoon, Mr. Lancaster."
He simply nodded and gestured for her to sit on the tatami floor in front of him. "Let's eat first," he remarked before signalling for the waiter to serve their meals. Rain smiled, appreciating his consideration. She was starving, after all.
Once their food arrived, they ate in silence, and Rain could feel Alexander's eyes landing on her every once in a while. Still, that didn't bother her as she enjoyed her lunch, seeing as delicious meals were practically her weakness.
After a moment, Alexander broke the silence. "I'm glad you're enjoying the meal. Should we talk about the divorce then?"
Rain looked at him and nodded.
Alexander nodded back. "I want a divorce as soon as the Civil Affairs office opens on Monday," he firmly stated.
