Margot’s hands trembled slightly. What does he mean by that? Is he at the doorstep now? In such a short time, he has gone to my house. As expected, he’s still suspicious of me.
The next moment, Maggie sent a message, accompanied by a screenshot from her home surveillance camera. In the image, Halsey’s tall and imposing figure stood at the door. Even though it was just a simple surveillance shot, the aura he carried was still oppressive.
Margot replied, “I know.”
Maggie responded, “What are you going to do next?”
Margot answered, “Do nothing, How about that?” Maggie was speechless.
Exiting her chat with Maggie, Margot pursed her pink lips. What should I do now? If I don’t open the door, he might break in to confirm his suspicions. If that happens, it’ll be a disaster.
Margot paced back and forth in her room. After much thought, she decided to take a gamble. She dialed Halsey’s number directly and asked, “Are you here to talk about the divorce?”
When he picked up, she spoke first, her soft voice as cold as it had always been.
Halsey, standing at the door, frowned at the sound of her familiar voice. “Open the door. We’ll talk.
Margot sounded skeptical. “Really? You’re not lying, are you?”
Halsey’s deep

voice was laced with impatience. “Open the door, and you’ll know whether I’m lying Margot rolled her eyes dramatically and then said, “If you want a divorce, why didn’t you reply to my messages earlier?” Haisey’s patience was wearing thin. “Margot, I won’t repeat myself the third time.”
Since he could not reach her, she decided to push her luck. “So what if you repeat yourself thrice? Will you explode on the spot? Go ahead and show me.”
The vein on Halsey’s temple throbbed as he stared at the security door. He instructed the bodyguard next to him, “Get someone to break this door.”
“Hey, Halsey, are you playing dirty now?” Margot’s panic came through as she heard his words.
Halsey tone turned icy. “Margot, you’d better keep your little schemes well hidden. If I catch it, I’ll deal with it harshly.”
Margot held her breath and said, “What nonsense are you spouting? Anyway, you can’t destroy my door. It’s expensive and imported from Italy I don’t want to see you now. If you’ve really decided on the divorce, then meet me at city hall tomorrow. I’ll wait for you.
With that, she hung up and pressed the phone against her chest, her heart racing wildly. She had decided to go all out. What should I do now? Halsey is furious, and he’ll definitely break the door, burst inside, and discover I’m not at home; and that’s when my troubles truly begin.
Margot anxiously ruffled her hair and paced the room. Meanwhile, Halsey looked at the disconnected phone call, the corners. of his thin lips curling into a mocking smile. She’s panicking, which means she’s not in the house.
The bodyguard asked respectfully. “Mr. Greene, the man has arrived. Should I let him
a come over now?”
Just as Halsey wanted to answer, his phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, he frowned and answered the call, “Hello? Mom,
what’s the matter?”
Jocelyn sounded anxious on the line. She said, “Robin is having a fever. Come over quickly!”
Halsey’s expression darkened, and he immediately turned to leave. “What happened? How did he get a fever?”
