CHAPTER 123: CHAPTER 123: FRESHLY ISSUED DIVORCE CERTIFICATE

Just as the atmosphere reached its lowest point, the man finally took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying: "Fine, fine, fine! Sabrina Hayes, I admit, this time I lost. I can agree to all your conditions, but on the premise that you must hand over tonight’s video to me!"

Sabrina Hayes lifted a faint smile, "President Hawthorne, you must be joking. Since this is a negotiation, naturally it has to wait for things to be settled before I can deliver the ’payment’, right?

So... tomorrow morning at 8:30, at the Civil Affairs Bureau, I hope you can arrive on time!

Once we get the divorce certificate, I will hand over the video to you!"

Jordan Hawthorne was so furious that his cheeks clenched, and he angrily slapped the table and left.

After he left, Tessa Hughes was still a bit incredulous.

"Did he... compromise?"

Sabrina Hayes chuckled: "How could he not? He can’t bear for Brooke to suffer such grievances either."

Tessa Hughes spat: "Cheating couple, lock them up!!! As for you... Congratulations, Sabrina, you’re finally breaking free, this is truly wonderful!"

Sabrina Hayes nodded and immediately pulled her up, "Come on, let’s leave first."

She feared staying any longer might provoke an incident leading to changes in this matter.

Tessa Hughes nodded immediately and rushed to leave.

The two left smoothly, with no one daring to stop them.

...

Seaside estate villa.

Nash Spencer also approached at the right time to report, "I just got word from the estate that Dr. Nash has left safely. Her trip there tonight was to... catch someone in the act.

That President Hawthorne and his lover booked a room there, and reportedly, they were caught red-handed.

Miss Nash seems to have obtained evidence!"

Jasper Fitzgerald raised an eyebrow.

No wonder she hurriedly called for help late at night, with an urgent tone, as if something unexpected had happened.

"Hmm, it’s good there’s no issue."

...

The next morning at 8 o’clock.

After breakfast, Sabrina Hayes headed straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Jordan Hawthorne arrived late with a scowling face, past 8:30.

Upon seeing Sabrina Hayes, he scornfully remarked with an icy tone, "You really couldn’t wait."

Sabrina Hayes didn’t respond, merely turned around to proceed with registration.

The process of signing the agreement involved little conversation.

Until the freshly issued divorce certificate was in hand, her heart seemed to be liberated.

From now on... she was freed from a suffocating marriage, able to regain freedom, and no longer subject to the humiliation brought by the men around her and the belittling and disdain of their family.

From this day forward, she would no longer live for those who aren’t worth it!

Outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, she felt the sunlight was bright, the air was fresh, and even breathing was particularly smooth.

At this moment, Tessa Hughes drove over, holding a bouquet, and complained: "Sabrina, why didn’t you wait for me, and just came by yourself?"

Sabrina Hayes said, "This kind of thing, I can handle it alone."

Tessa Hughes ignored Jordan Hawthorne’s presence and said: "Oh really, such a great day, we must celebrate, right?

Here, these are flowers for you, congratulations to my Sabrina for breaking away from the scumbag, becoming single again, casting away the unfortunate marriage, and from now on, the world is your oyster!"

After she said this, she felt it was not enough and pulled a party popper directly in front of Jordan Hawthorne!

With a loud ’bang’, it was particularly loud.

Anyone unaware would have thought Sabrina Hayes was getting married today.

Jordan Hawthorne was murderous at this moment, gritting his teeth and reminding, "The video!!!"

Only then did Tessa Hughes seem to notice his presence and directly pulled out her phone to delete the video, "Done, alright?"

Jordan Hawthorne said coldly, "There are backups!"

Tessa Hughes rolled her eyes, logged into the cloud, and deleted all backups.

After finishing, she asked, "Are you satisfied now? Don’t worry, keeping this stuff around is useless, I’m actually afraid it might take up my phone’s storage...

Now that the marriage is over, President Hawthorne, you can play freely, wishing you and your mistress a pleasant life!"

Jordan Hawthorne’s face looked bad, seemingly not believing Tessa Hughes.

Sabrina Hayes saw through this and calmly said, "Don’t worry, after all, you’re Zara’s father. Unlike you, I consider her feelings.

I don’t want something like this appearing online in the future, contaminating her eyes."

Jordan Hawthorne became silent for a few seconds upon hearing this, eventually convinced.

Sabrina Hayes cared immensely for her daughter, as he knew well!

It was at this moment that Jordan Hawthorne felt a hint of reality about the divorce.

This woman, whom he had never loved, truly left so freely, but strangely enough, he didn’t feel the ease and happiness he anticipated.

He gave Sabrina Hayes one last complicated look and then turned to leave.

After the man left, Sabrina Hayes’s entire nervous system finally relaxed, her legs were a bit weak, and her body involuntarily swayed.

"What’s wrong? Don’t scare me."

Tessa Hughes said worriedly, supporting her.

Sabrina Hayes shook her head, "It’s nothing, just that my heart was in suspense all night, and I didn’t sleep. Now, finally solving a major life issue, I feel grounded."

She originally thought she would feel somewhat touched, but ultimately found she didn’t.

So, a man she loved so deeply could eventually become as plain as water, causing not even a ripple.

Tessa Hughes hugged her and laughed: "First day of being single again, want to celebrate tonight? How about I accompany you for a drink?"

"Sure, let’s celebrate!"

She had finally completely broken away from the Hawthorne Family.

As they left the Civil Affairs Bureau, they cleaned up the confetti from the party popper, then returned home in high spirits to tell her parents about the divorce.

Galina Young and Charles Hayes were very happy to hear the news.

"Leaving a draining marriage is a blessing. From now on, Dad and Mom wish you joy and happiness."

"Next time, if you find someone, keep your eyes wide open and only entrust yourself to the right person. If not, let’s stay smart and live as a family with Zara, it’ll be quite nice."

Sabrina Hayes nodded, "I understand."

At noon, her parents happily cooked a table full of good food to celebrate their daughter’s successful divorce.

In the evening, Sabrina Hayes went out to meet Tessa Hughes.

They arrived at a high-end lounge, booked a VIP seat to celebrate.

During this, Sabrina Hayes couldn’t help but think of the person who tipped her off on the situation.

"Who do you think it might be?"

Tessa Hughes thought for a moment, shook her head, "No idea, but surely a mysterious benefactor!"

Sabrina Hayes chuckled.

Indeed, a benefactor.

But as for ’mysterious’, it’s hard to say for sure just yet.

She tried sending a message to express thanks, but there was no response.

Tessa Hughes, after a few drinks, started speaking without reservations, "Do you think it could be Mr. Fitzgerald? After all, he played quite a significant role in this matter.

If it weren’t for him arranging the card, we wouldn’t even have been able to enter the estate, let alone successfully catch the act and get divorced.

Sabrina... since you met him, everything that’s happened has been good.

Look, Zara was in his care, and her autism was cured, tapping into her high artistic talent.

You’ve interacted with him several times, him helping out... perhaps to him, it might be a small gesture.

But to you, he’s indeed a great benefactor!

No, not right!

He should be seen as you and darling Zara’s lucky star!"
