Chapter 9
Three
ree days later, Zander finally found the time to return and pick up the replaced clothes.
Just as he stepped through the door, he instinctively called out Joyce’s name.
However, after shouting several times, only a few servants came forward to respond.
“What about the lady?”
As he watched the servant unfamiliarly remove his shoes and take his clothes, he furrowed his
brow.
The servant hesitated for a while before finally speaking.
‘Madam was not at home…”
He put on his indoor shoes and entered the house, but Joyce was still not home. After he returned from the hospital with Elianna, who had been injured by hot cuisine, Joyce also quietly went out for several days.
This time, he also took Elianna to the hospital first, and before they left, she kindly told herself that she could go to the hospital alone.
At this moment, I left home again due to being upset.
The inner restlessness gradually evolved into an indescribable anger.
Zander walked into the living room and immediately caught sight of the documents placed on the table.
If it were in the past, he wouldn’t even glance at it.
However, today, he unexpectedly picked up the documents on the table.
The four big words of divorce agreement were prominently displayed.
At the bottom, his name was written in black letters on white paper!
In an instant, his face suddenly turned extremely cold, and the light in his eyes vanished without a trace, leaving only an infinite darkness.
He reached out to touch his signature, realizing that it was indeed written by his own hand.
But he had no memory of the divorce agreement.
In an instant, he recalled that morning when they were enjoying light food, as if she had handed him something to sign.
But at that time, he was focused on replying to Elianna’s message and didn’t pay attention.

The document in his hand was torn to pieces by him, and the fragments scattered all over the
ground.
Is Joyce getting divorced?
It’s simply ridiculous!
She loved him so much that she was willing to give up her own life. No matter how many times he abandoned her, Joyce never expressed any dissatisfaction.
Maybe it was because he had been paying attention to Elianna recently, which caused her to feel
dissatisfied.
Three years of time were enough for her to experience a wave of jealousy, and in the end, she would
come back on her own.
If she didn’t come back…
How is it possible? She would definitely come back to him.
Zander firmly believed in this, after all, Joyce loved him more than her own life.
In the following days, the servants in the villa all avoided talking about Joyce, as if they had made an
unspoken agreement.
Until Zander brought Elianna back home.
Looking at the bland porridge in front of her, Shayla suddenly threw away the spoon and
complained loudly.
“Who cooked this? Joyce? Let her do it again!”
The servant on the side showed a troubled expression and answered.
“Miss, the lady has been absent for several days in a row, so…”
Shayla, upon hearing the words, immediately widened her eyes.
Has Joyce been away for several days?
She always believed that when Joyce mentioned divorce at that time, it was just a moment of anger,
because their family was the only high branch that Joyce could hold on to in her lifetime, and
anyone would seize such an opportunity tightly.
Recalling the divorce agreement she glimpsed on the dining table that day, she looked up at Zander
sitting across from her.
According to the maid’s account, Zander also saw the divorce agreement when he returned, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. Instead, he tore the agreement into pieces and threw it into the
wastebasket.

Her gaze shifted towards Elianna, who was bowing her head and eating earnestly, as if completely oblivious to their conversation.
She knew well that Zander had been longing for Elianna to come back, and now, Elianna also showed signs of changing her mind.
Plus, with Joyce already gone, Zander should have been overjoyed.
Shayla looked at Zander and saw that his face turned pale, indicating his displeasure at Joyce’s delayed return.
At the thought of Joyce, a few more grievances were added to her heart.
Even though he had already left, he was still disturbing everyone’s mood.
After the meal, Elianna returned to her room to rest.
Shayla looked at Zander, who was still standing in the same spot, and after a moment of contemplation, she asked softly, “Zander, when do you plan to go and get married with Elianna?”
