I sneered.
“When did I ever joke with you?”
He loudly questioned me, “If you leave, what about me and Armand?”
I looked at him in confusion and asked him back, “Aren’t you and Yasmin a family?
Aren’t you happier without a troublemaker like me?”
But unexpectedly, he interrupted me angrily.
“Bullshit!”
“Armand is your son and I’ve got the
marriage certificate with you, how can you leave?”
I stopped packing my things.
“Leonard, don’t you find it funny? It was you who said that I used the marriage certificate and the child to tie up your life,

but now I don’t tie you up anymore, but you
use it to tie me up.”
“Before, you criticized my love for being too repressive. But now I let you go. We are divorced and you can continue to pursue your freedom.”
After saying ‘divorce‘, I felt like my frustrations over the past decade had dissipated quite a bit.
Hearing this word, Leonard’s eyes
immediately turned red.
With a look of disbelief on his face, he said, “Joanna, I’ll give you a chance to retract what you just said.”
Faced with him who was about to collapse, I lightly repeated. “I said we’re divorced.”
The next second, the man collapsed.
He screamed at me. “No way!”
He looked irrational now, which was the
same as when he learned that Yasmin went
abroad.

But now no one could stop me from pursuing my dream.
I grabbed my luggage and was about to leave.
Seeing this, he rushed to me and grabbed my arm, stubbornly speaking to me, “No way. I won’t let you go.”
At this time, Yasmin was also there to persuade Leonard.
“Leonard, love cannot be forced, you should let Joanna go.”
Surprisingly, Leonard, who was usually very gentle to Yasmin, suddenly scolded angrily. “Shut up!”
Yasmin was startled and cried.
I looked at him calmly. “Leonard, I’m warning you once, let me go.”
But he did not let me go.
At this moment, Armand was also pushed over by Yasmin and held Leonard’s hand.
