MISTAKE 39 Chapter 39: Refusing Alimony "There is a part of the prenuptial agreement that covers handing over her inheritance from my grandfather; how did this go?" Daniel asked. If nothing else, he could still pay her mother's bills for a few more months.

"This will not be a problem; Miss Jones' lawyer said they will not contest anything. To make sure they don't change their minds, I have already submitted the divorce agreement, and I am waiting for the certificate," Mr. Kent replied. Daniel raised a brow at this. He has submitted it already? Mr. Kent sure worked fast, but he was not sure how that made him feel.

"Then, let her know that I will offer a million in alimony," Daniel told him.

"I will relay the message and get back to you," Mr. Kent said.

Anya had only dropped the call when another cin. She recognized the number and picked it was her lawyer. "Mr. Hanson, what can I do for you?" she answered.

"Your husband's divorce lawyer calledto pass on a message," he started to say when she cut his sentence off.

"Ex-husband," she corrected him.

"I am sorry, Miss Jones," he apologized. "Your ex-husband's divorce lawyers calledto pass on a message. He has informedthat your husband has offered to add a million dollars to your alimony," he said. Ang k Anya felt nothing when she heard his words, she yes not interested in anything that had to do with him again.

"Reject him, I do not need his charity. Tell then that I want nothing from him first have the divorce settled quickly," she said.

"Are you sure, Miss Jones? You have been married to him for more than three years, you most definitely deserve that money, if not more," he said.

"I want nothing from him. Don't get distracted. Mr. Hanson. He is a very dangerous man. It is best I leave quietly." "Alright then, I will relay the message. Do not worry, con, I will have the divorce settled quickly," he promised. When their call ended, Anya found herself staring into space too long it took a while for her to recover and still her heart.

Anya may not have lived long in a rich society, but she had cto understand them quite well. What she took from him will definitely cback to hunt her. If one wanted to break ties with people of his caliber and have nothing to do with each other again, they would need to be willing to either take enough to protect themselves or leave empty-handed.

Daniel waited a while before Mr. Kent replied. When he heard Anya's reply, it bothered him. Anya was refusing everything? He rolled around in bed for hours all night, unable to get ssleep.

His mind wandered to Anya every other second. It was as though he had lost his mind. When she was at home, he barely gave her much of a thought, and the moment he got rid of her, he could not sleep.

Even if he rolled for hours, sleep still deluded him. They say that the god of sleep forgets those who bow to thoughts. It took one night for Daniel's curse to begin.

While a night turned to days as sleep was hard to find for Daniel, Anya had woken up and met Chapter 39. Refusing Alimony 3/5 with the real estate agent the next morning. This house was old and crumbling, but when the agent took her around to see the house, all she felt was nostalgia.

Anya recalled this courtyard. The orange tree and plum tree at the center of the courtyard had grown taller than she had remembered.

"As you can see, the trees will be a problem. There are two more in the back and one in front. Their roots have not damaged the foundation, but the roof and walls will need a lot of work," the real estate agent said.

This was the point when clients would refuse to take the house. Many were attracted to the location of the house, but when they saw the state of it and heard the price, they left.

"Hove it. I will take it," Anya said, and the agent almost jumped out of his skin in excitement. As though worried that Anya would change her mind, he hurriedly finished the procedures of the purchase. The moment the house was hers, Anya met with a renovation company and drew out plans.

She looked at the money in her bank account. After repaying her debt to Dr. Steele and buying the house, she still had smoney left from her last project.

In a week, her plans were starting to take shape as the renovation soon began.

A week had passed, and Daniel had thrown himself into work from the lack of sleep. Selene was sick, so he still had to make the drive over to see her.

His secretary had taken over keeping track of private life with his family, so he was not shocked when he got up one morning to notification that he has a birthday to attend, his father's birthday. He tiredly dressed and drove over with a gift he had prepared a day before. He lived about an hour from his parent's home, so it did not take him long to arrive.

Daniel stepped into his father's cozy hand was greeted by the familiar scene of his mother shuffling about arranging things. His aunts tried to help her, but she moved like the Refusing Alimony wind, leaving them behind. The large dining room was packed with family trying to find their seats.

There was a loud back feeling in the air. However, Daniel's heart felt heavy as he entered the dining room alone, his wife, Anya, conspicuously absent.
