No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 396

After a long silence, York changed the subject. "Your family has been pressuring you so much about marriage that you've had to hide abroad. Do you really have time to worry about my problems?"

Peter sighed dramatically from his position on the sofa. "I'm not done having fun yet, and they're constantly pushing me to get married and have kids. It's like they can't wait to throw me into the fire. The mindset of the older generation is truly terrifying."

"Is it that you're not done having fun, or is it that you haven't found the right person?" York asked.

Peter tilted his head, looking at York. "When you married Claudia back then, was she the right person?"

York's grip on his wine glass tightened unconsciously.

"The moment I decided to marry Claudia," he said, "I was prepared to spend the rest of my life with her."

And even now, that hadn't changed.

—

On Wednesday, Ferguson Group officially announced York's divorce, causing a significant stir.

That afternoon, Claudia met with Hugh at a restaurant.

"I didn't expect the divorce to go so smoothly," Hugh said. "Since it's done, it's best to let things take their natural course."

Hugh didn't say "congratulations."

Claudia smiled lightly.

"I originally wanted to invite you, Mr. Cyrus, and everyone else for a get-together," she said, "but it's a shame Mr. Cyrus is in Rhoderia and won't be back for a few days."

She added, "Regardless, I still have to thank you, Mr. Ferguson."

If Hugh hadn't helped her, the thirty-day cooling-off period alone would have dragged things out.

Hugh smiled. "There's no need to be so formal with me, Dr. Watkins. It was a testament to the bond you and Mr. Ferguson shared as husband and wife. Mr. Ferguson was willing to part amicably."

Hugh always knew the right thing to say. He neither praised Claudia excessively nor spoke ill of York. That's why Claudia always felt relaxed and comfortable around him.

Hawley Ferguson, sitting quietly beside Hugh, hadn't said a word.
