Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Until Death Do Us Part (4)

Yun Xuefei retrieved the agreement from the bookshelf, walked slowly back to the desk, placed it in front of him, and handed him a pen.

Huo Yanzhao’s right hand trembled slightly, but he eventually took the pen firmly.

As soon as he signed his name and had the agreement notarized, they would no longer be husband and wife.

His eyes settled on the agreement, and he froze, unable to move for a long time.

“I can’t sign,” he suddenly spoke up.

“Why?” Yun Xuefei turned to him abruptly, her lips white from biting.

“This agreement is unfair to you,” Huo Yanzhao said calmly. “I am at fault, and our assets shouldn’t be divided this way.”

“No need,” Yun Xuefei scoffed with a cynical smile, hiding the disappointment in her eyes, “I don’t mind.”

“But I do,” Huo Yanzhao said calmly, setting down the agreement and then grabbing her wrist, “let’s go down to eat first, Mrs. Wu must be getting anxious.”

“Huo Yanzhao!” she involuntarily raised her voice, her face flushing with anger.

“Xuefei, let’s not tell our parents about this yet.” Huo Yanzhao said calmly, “Mrs. Wu has served at Yun Family for many years and watched you grow up; you wouldn’t want to make her sad, would you?”

Yun Xuefei paused for a moment, eventually reluctantly agreeing, and followed him out.

Her gaze involuntarily fell on the bag that Huo Yanzhao had brought back, vaguely making out the shape of a packaging box.

Chocolate lava cake, her favorite dessert. No matter which shop she visited, if she saw this dessert, she would order it; thus, Huo Yanzhao had also formed the habit of buying her a piece whenever he heard about a new dessert shop.

This time was no exception.

But why, why did he so readily talk about divorce?

Yun Xuefei felt a lump in her throat.

…

Dinner ended in utter silence.

Mrs. Wu could sense the trouble between them, was inwardly anxious, but powerless to do anything.

After dinner, Yun Xuefei returned to the bedroom. Not long after, Huo Yanzhao appeared with a freshly printed agreement in his hands.

“Take a look, if everything seems fine, you can sign,” Huo Yanzhao said softly.

It seemed to be just a routine contract.

Yun Xuefei felt hatred surge in her heart once again.

Since he could act so indifferent and untroubled, couldn’t she do the same?

Thinking this, she coldly took it, quickly leafing through, yet her expression gradually changed.

Yun Xuefei looked up at the man in front of her, struggling to keep her anger in check, “Why?”

“I’ve already said, I am the one at fault,” Huo Yanzhao remained calm.

“Then you don’t have to…” Yun Xuefei gritted her teeth in frustration, “Huo Yanzhao, what exactly are you trying to do?”

In the agreement, he had transferred all the real estate, funds, and stocks he could access to her!

If not for Huo Family’s shares requiring board approval, he might have transferred his share of Huo Family to her as well…

Talk about walking away with nothing!

“Don’t worry, I won’t starve,” Huo Yanzhao actually smiled a little.

I’m not worried about you!

Yun Xuefei pursed her lips, swallowed those words, took a deep breath, “Huo Yanzhao, are you really sure?”

“Yes,” he nodded seriously, still very calm.

Yun Xuefei was again provoked by his demeanor!
