Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137

“Oh really?”

Keith raised a brow, his smile not quite reaching his eyes as he looked at Julian.

“You took it to court and still have the nerve to call it a joke? What do you think-that I’m the idiot, or you are?

“If I hadn’t told Ace to bring the evidence, I’m guessing the outcome today would’ve looked a lot different, wouldn’t it?”

Julian was momentarily speechless.

Just then, Zack walked over, his expression sour as he looked at Julian.

“Since you and Autumn are already divorced, let’s not make things messier than they need to be. Just leave.”

He had always imagined the day he’d finally run into Julian again, he’d give that jerk a proper beating.

But Autumn had just gone through the divorce. For her sake, he held back his anger.

What was the point? Beating Julian to a pulp wouldn’t change the fact that he’d already moved on.

Julian’s eyes darkened as he turned back to Autumn. “You said we’re divorced. When did that happen?”

They were divorced and even had the paperwork in hand? How could he not know?

Didn’t a divorce require signatures?

He didn’t recall signing anything.

And Autumn had loved him so much. She couldn’t possibly have divorced him.

Was this just another trick she was playing?

Autumn couldn’t be bothered to explain.

She simply tossed a line over her shoulder and walked away. “If you really want to know, ask Madam Grace.”

Julian didn’t understand what she meant, but once he got into the car, he pulled out his phone and called Grace.

She answered quickly. “Hello, Julian? Is something wrong?”

He rubbed his temples, then asked directly, “Mom, did you already know about my divorce from Autumn?”

Grace touched her chin, clearly flustered. “So, Autumn told you, huh? That woman can’t keep her mouth shut to save her life. What’s her angle now?

“She’s probably trying to use this to squeeze money out of you. Don’t fall for it!”

So, it was true. Autumn hadn’t been bluffing.

Julian felt his temples pounding.

Leaning back against the seat, he gripped his phone tightly. “Mom, something happened with Sienna.”

This was what gave him the biggest headache.

Sure, the divorce was frustrating, but this was far worse.

If it wasn’t handled properly, his sister could end up with a criminal record.

“What?” Grace’s voice shot up several octaves, shrill with panic. “What happened to Sienna?”

1/2

Julian explained the whole situation, lips pressed into a tight line.

“Mom, how could you and Autumn team up to trick me? Where did the divorce certificate even come from?”

He’d never planned to actually divorce Autumn.
