Noah was not one of those who lost temper, he hardly let it slip through his fingers. Because his father once taught him that anger was the cause of eve y tragedy and ever since then, Noah has kept a very tight control 

of his emotions. 

However, not now. 

At that moment, he only wanted one thing and it was to bury the person who was the cause of his livorce. He did not even sign the documents, so how in the world did the proceedings end up getting finalized? 2  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“I– Are you asking about your and Mrs Nelson’s divorce proceedings?” Mister Smith asked dumbly He did not think that Noah would be angry about t divorce, after all, everyone in the Lonest City kne that Noah Nelson and his wife did not have a good relationship as no one saw Noah with his wife. 

However, now Noah was getting angry at him and seemed to be on the verge of throwing fists. What in

the world happened? He was waiting for his rewards, how come he was receiving a scolding? 

“Do you think that I will drive here despite my busy schedule to question someone else’s divorce 

proceedings, you dumb fck?” Noah snarled at the man. His fingers clenched and unclenched as another nerve popped out on his face when he gritted his teeth. 

Behind him, Brandon sighed and then noted down another thing on the notepad he was holding. Most probably he was writing down the things he had to clean up once his boss was done. 

The creamy sauce of the pasta that was dun ed on his head flowed down his face. But Mister Smith did not 

care as he was not in the condition to care about it, he 

looked at Noah with a greasy smile that was on the verge of falling and said, “But… But we were told that you were aware and accepting of the divorce, this is why we proceeded with the proceedings.” 

He did not dare to tell Noah that Glynn handed fat stack of dollar bills and on top of that, Nicolai 

threatened him with his life. Mister Smith was not a 

fool who would willingly confess his corruption in 

front of Noah. 2

Especially not when Noah was looking at him like he wanted him dead. 

Didn’t Glynn say that she had the permission of her brother and she was only submitting the documents on her brother’s behalf as Noah was too busy? 

Mister Smith was perplexed about what was happening at first, but soon he understood everything 

He was made a fool by Glynn! That woman did everything behind her brother’s back and lied to them by saying that she had Noah’s permission. 

And now that the proceedings were finalized he had no evidence that it was Glynn who caused this trouble There wasn’t even a recording of that day. 

This chamber did not have any surveillance cameras

Mister Smith’s mind turned, and he pointed at

turned to look at the man with a stunned expression. It was he who asked her to finalize the proceedings along with Glynn, even going as far as to threaten her with her job. 

But now that trouble came knocking on their door, he was pushing her to take the blame for him. How dare 

he! 

“I didn’t,” Evelyn shook both her hands along with her 

head. “I wasn’t the one who did–” 

“You are the one who is responsible for handling such matters, if you do not authorize the documents with your stamp and thumbprint, how will the do uments get finalized?” Mister Smith questioned Evely in a loud voice. It was as if he were trying to compete in a competition to see whose voice was loudest. 

Noah narrowed his eyes at the sudden rise of Mister Smith’s over-the-top voice, which was begging snip Mister Smith’s vocal cords. However, he suppressed that impulse and turned to look at Evely who looked back at them as if she were being wronged. 

“That’s true but–

“You see? She is the one who did it,” Mister Smith did 

not let Evelyn speak. He was worried that Noah would believe her and that his attempt to shirk the 

responsibility would be blamed, so he hurriedly added fuel to the fire, “This woman is irresponsible like this. She has a forceful sense to protect women, doesn’t listen to anything that I say.” 

“Just now I was explaining to her that Mister Bardot was being falsely accused by his wife who wants to get her hands on his properties unjustly, but this woman did not hear a word I said to her. She instead said to me that she knows her stuff and asked me to get lost,” Mister Smith sighed as if he was suffering tl most. “What can I do? With the law supporting the women now, I can’t even scold her, as she would sue me for 

mentally tormenting her at work.” 

Evelyn’s eyes widened, and she turned to look at Mister Smith, who was lying through his teeth. 

She wanted to smack that lying face, but under No glare, Evelyn trembled in fear. She knew that if she d 

not speak now, then she would never be able to speak ever again. Evelyn ignored the glare and the threats that Mister Smith was mouthing behind Noah’s back

and explained, 

“I was indeed the one who authorized the 

proceedings,” she decided to confess, as Evelyn knew that if Noah decided to investigate this matter, it would be her who would be prosecuted. 

“You hear that, Mister Nelson. It was her who–” 

Mister Smith was glad that Evelyn took the blame. He decided to be generous and hand her a thousand dollars in exchange for staying in prison for ten years. 

A hundred dollars for every year, a perfect sum. 

But then he heard Evelyn say, “But it was under the order of Mister Smith and your sister.”
