Deadlock.
Then, she was picked up horizontally by the man, striding steadily toward the door.
Once Lin Chu realized what was happening, she struggled with all her might, her voice involuntarily raised, "Lu Huai’an, are you out of your mind? I don’t want to go in!"
Lu Huai’an didn’t stop, and the attention of passersby was focused on the two of them.
He acted as if he hadn’t seen it, without a frown, his deep voice steady, "When you decided on divorce, did you ever ask if I wanted it?"
Lin Chu was so angry that the corners of her eyes turned red, looking as if she had just been in a fight.
Her hair was a disheveled mess, she was panting heavily, her collar was crooked, wearing only one shoe with the other foot bare.
Compared to the well-dressed and composed Lu Huai’an, she was in such a state it was hard to describe.
She tried to walk towards the door, but after two or three steps, her wrist was grabbed and she was pulled back by the man.
Then she shook him off and continued, but the result was no different, except that the grip on her wrists grew tighter and the strength in her body was gradually being drained.
The same thing repeated a dozen times.
Lin Chu laughed out of anger.
She no longer struggled with Lu Huai’an and casually sat down on the chair behind her.
The foot without a shoe was raised, swinging idly.
Panting, with undisguised sarcasm at the corners of her eyes, she said, "Lu Huai’an, what gives you the right to question me? If not divorce, are you planning to spend your whole life with me?"
The marriage she had forced was a shackle, holding her back from taking a single step forward.
Exchanging shackles for freedom needed no reason.
Lu Huai’an continued to breathe steadily, standing there tall and graceful as if he belonged to another world.
His dark eyes calm, adjusting his shirt cuffs with elegant ease, he seemed a different man from ten minutes ago.
In a slow, matter-of-fact tone, he stated, "As long as I disagree, don’t think you can get rid of me." freeweɓnøvel.com
The staff were scared stiff.
It was their first time seeing someone being brought to the civil affairs bureau while tied up.
Even for a divorce, it never got this intense.
The not-so-spacious office felt like an invisible battlefield, with tensions sharper than the summer sun’s glare.
The staff watched the push-and-pull between the two, or more accurately, one person didn’t want to stay even for a second but continued to struggle despite its futility.
While the other seemed to lose patience and simply pulled the person into his arms.
"Register."
The cold, two-syllable word rang out, followed by two divorce certificates being tossed onto the desk.
The staff snapped back to reality, "Oh, oh, right."
Hastily finding the forms needed to be filled, they handed them over. "Could you please fill these out first?"
Lin Chu was seated on the man’s lap, unable to move at all, not even glancing at the forms.
"I’ll say it again, Lu Huai’an. If you force me to sign, be prepared to guard against a woman who wishes you dead at all times."
She had been in hell and spent five years of her youth unable to climb out.
Re-entering the dark marriage would only drag her deeper.
A caged bird would die even if given ample food and water, without any harm.
The staff appeared petrified, but Lu Huai’an remained unfazed.
He placed the pen in Lin Chu’s hand, then wrapped her hand with his, firmly guiding the pen to fill in the form.
"Given your hatred for me, you should seize it," he glanced at Lin Chu, his dark eyes betraying no emotion, "There’s no better opportunity than sharing a bed every day."
Lin Chu’s bound hands were already marked red, looking like the skin might have been grazed.
Despite being in a state where she couldn’t muster any resistance, she still refused to comply.
She tensed her wrist, making it impossible for him to write, with the pen stopping at the final stroke of ’Lin.’
"What if I won’t?"
The man’s strength was far greater than she expected. She managed less than ten seconds before being completely overpowered.
Her full name ended up completely written in the signature box.
The man’s low, unchanging voice sounded in her ear, "Once you have the upper hand, then you can say ’no.’"
With power and influence, someone can force another to do what they don’t want.
Such as half of An City’s businessmen aiming to attach themselves to Lu Huai’an, and... Lin Chu, the fallen heiress everyone stepped on.
