How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 172: Divorce Paper Part II

Like an arrow straight through the heart. For the first time, Claudia was faced with a confident man who spoke honestly about wanting a divorce. When dealing with Linnon in her previous life, Linnon never brought up wanting a divorce, even though Linnon was actually secretly cheating on her.

Just like Harris, who was secretly having an affair with Vivian. Moreover, Harris always used every means to cover up his affair for a long time and when the truth was revealed, Harris still continued to deny it. For Claudia, the pain she experienced when she found out about Harris and Linnon’s rottenness was still not comparable to the pain when Harry told her to divorce.

Her crying became more and more intense until she almost ran out of breath. She feels like she can no longer stand facing her husband who is truly cruel and has no conscience, hurting her at the same time.

Her two hands clenched into tight fists hit Harry’s chest several times weakly. "Why do you want to divorce me? Aren’t you determined to protect me all the time? Don’t you want me to stay by your side?"

"I’m sorry, Claudia."

"Apologies are not enough, Harry! What makes you want to divorce suddenly?!"

Harry still let his wife hit his chest repeatedly with a resigned face. "Because our marriage contract has ended."

"Isn’t there still six months? The contract is valid for one year! Besides, didn’t you say last time that our marriage is not a contract marriage?" Claudia sucked in the mucus that wanted to flow from her nose. "Even though I’ve loved you sincerely for six months, you dumped me suddenly! You are really cruel!"

"Because our marriage was forced from the start, Claudia! You forgot that you approached me suddenly in the middle of your engagement to Harris! You approached me, teased me, seduced me until I started to melt as time went by."

"But, at that time I really started to be interested in you. I want to marry you not because I want to get the title of duchess. But, you are the right man for me."

"For me, I’m not the right man to accompany your life, Claudia." Harry sighed resignedly then moved his body away from his wife. "The divorce papers will be processed after you sign them. Actually, if you don’t sign, I will have asked for help from a divorce lawyer to handle the divorce case I am facing now. I will share half of my wealth with you."

"I don’t want to accept your money! I don’t want anything from you. I just want you to be by my side all my life." Claudia wiped her tears with her thumb. "From the start I married you not because I wanted your wealth, but I needed a man who was good and accepted me for who I am. Now I don’t have anyone anymore. I only have you. If you leave me, who will accompany me again?"

"You can marry another man who is better than me. The divorce papers will be processed as soon as possible and we will divorce next month."

If this fight continued until midnight, Claudia really wouldn’t forgive her husband. She was determined to end it rather than end their relationship just because he was selfish. She got up from the table then walked quickly towards the door of this room.

"Today I don’t want to sleep with you. Isn’t it better that we don’t sleep together because we’re going to divorce soon?" Actually, when she said ’divorce’, Claudia still couldn’t bear to mention it because the more she heard that word, the more she felt like her ears were being pricked by thorns. "Even though I already cooked dinner for you. If you want to appreciate the results of my hard work, you have to finish my cooking."

Even though the initial plan was to do all kinds of romantic activities all night long, now all of her plans were ruined just because of one annoying letter. Claudia chose to hide herself in the bathroom while soaking her body in a bathtub filled with hot water. Actually, up to this moment, she still hoped that Harry would tell the truth and apologize for hurting her feelings. However, after a few minutes of soaking, she became increasingly disappointed because Harry didn’t take the initiative to look for her and stop her. She also still hoped that Harry would scold her for soaking so long she caught a cold.

Even though Claudia was very disappointed, on the other hand, Harry was actually sitting in front of the bathroom door in resignation. His gaze stared blankly at their wedding photo on the wall. His left hand holding his chest felt painful when he heard his wife’s loud cries that could be heard outside the bathroom.

"Why are you still so stubborn even though I warned you earlier? Why do you always make me anxious?" He took a deep breath then exhaled slowly. "I already enjoyed your cooking earlier. I really liked it and maybe your cooking was the last time I will enjoy it. "Thank you for the food you have served so far that has given me the spirit to survive."

Harry was determined not to stay silent in front of the bathroom door all the time. If he continues to be silent, then his wife will think he still cares about her. Therefore, now he took his pillow and a dark blue pajama set. For a moment his eyes stared at the bathroom door, for some reason his hand felt like he wanted to grip the bathroom door handle.

"Should I barge into the bathroom without caring that you’re still in the shower?" Harry groaned in annoyance as he ruffled his hair. "If it continues like this, will you be able to live independently without my presence?"

Several minutes had passed, Claudia was satisfied enough to vent her tears in the bathroom. Now she enjoys dinner alone in the empty atmosphere of the dining room. So far, the dining room has always been filled with the sound of laughter whenever they tell stories. She really missed the sweet moments with her husband during the six months of marriage.

"You really mean to let me eat dinner alone. We’ll see, I will repay you for hurting my feelings!"
