Chapter 319


    “Xani, I’m going to divorce Christopher.”


    Yuliana smiled when she said this. At the same time, tears rolled down the corner of her eyes and slid


    across her lips along the nasal groove. She didn’t hide it at all. Instead, she slowly raised her hand to


    wipe the tears hanging on her lower lip.


    Then she drank another mouthful of wine.


    Perhaps it was because Yuliana had drunk a lot, so her movements and thoughts became slow. Even


    her perception of her emotions became much slower at the same time. When she told Xandria about


    the divorce, she only felt a light sting in her heart, and she soon felt numb thanks to the alcohol.


    Xandria had a high tolerance, so the alcohol in front of her was a piece of cake for her. While Yuliana


    was drunk, Xandria was still sober. When thetter heard Yuliana’s words, she almost choked on the


    wine.


    Xandria’s astonishment faded when she saw Yuliana smiling with tears. Feeling sorry for Yuliana, she


    held back the words she wanted to say. All Xandria felt at that moment was sympathy for Yuliana.


    Without saying anything, Xandria moved closer to Yuliana and gave her a hug.


    “Yuliana, you don’t have to hold back in front of me. Just cry if you want.”


    Yuliana didn’t want to cry at first, but when she heard Xandria’s sorrowful voice, she felt an excruciating


    pain in her heart. Then, tears started pouring from her


    eyes.


    Yuliana bit her lips tightly, but sobs still escaped from her throat.


    For a moment, there was only the heartbreaking sound of crying in the quiet apartment.


    It was full of despair and misery.


    Xandria seldom saw Yuliana crying. Even when Yuliana divorced Harry, she did not cry in front of


    Xandria. Yuliana was emotionally stable every time they met back then, and Xandria had felt indignant


    for Yuliana whenever she saw thetter like that.


    Xandria didn’t know what had happened between Yuliana and Christopher. She wondered, “Is it


    because of the photos I sent to Yulianast time? Or is Christopher’s involvement in the murder case


    the reason for their divorce?”


    It was evident that Yuliana did not want to divorce Christopher, or else she would not be that sad.


    Yuliana cried for a long time. She only stopped crying when exhaustion swept over her.


    She moved and sat on the carpet beside Xandria. Leaning against the sofa, she ced her head on


    Xandria’s shoulder and raised her eyes to look at the light above.


    The light was soft and not too bright, but Yuliana still felt tingling pain in her eyes. She closed her eyes


    and exhaled slowly, and the suffocating feeling in her chest was finally gradually relieved.


    She picked up the wine ss and took another sip, though she didn’t drink as fast as before.


    Obviously, she had calmed down at this point.


    “It’s the first time I’ve seen you drink so much,” Xandria said softly.


    Yuliana said, “This is not my first time. Actually, when I divorced Harry, I drank a lot the night I went to


    the bar with you. Because of that, I provoked Christopher, and that’s how all these things happened


    afterward.”


    “Do I regret it?” Yuliana wondered.


    Yuliana thought about it carefully and realized she didn’t seem to regret it. Although her marriage failed


    again, she now had Rowan.


    After hesitating for a while, Xandria couldn’t help asking curiously, “Yuliana, can I ask you a question?”


    “What is it?”


    “Harry and Christopher, who do you prefer?”


    Yuliana had loved Harry for so many years and had only been with Christopher for about a year. Yet for


    some reason, Xandria thought that Yuliana was more heartbroken about her divorce from Christopher.


    Yuliana was stunned for a moment. She had never thought about who she liked more, but she knew


    that Harry and Christopher were totally different people. In her three years of marriage with Harry, her


    love for him vanished over time.


    Getting a divorce was sad, but it also gave her freedom.


    On the other hand, her memories with Christopher seemed to be more than that of the ones she made


    with Harry in three years. Her year with Christopher was full of ups and downs, but it was the best year


    she had ever had in her life.


    Yuliana had neverpared her degree of love for the two. She had loved Harry dearly, but now that


    she was over him, she felt nothing for him. But apparently, she still could not move on from Christopher


    at this time.


    Therefore, her feelings now were not necessarily urate.


    Yuliana smiled. “What do you think?”


    Xandria leaned her head against the sofa and thought for a moment. Then, she said, “I think you prefer


    Christopher.”


    With that, she nced at Yuliana.


    Yuliana did not confirm whether Xandria got it right. With a calm expression, she picked up the ss


    and took another sip of wine.


    Seeing that Yuliana didn’t intend to continue this topic, Xandria asked cautiously, “Did you get divorced


    because of the photos I sent youst time?”


    At that time, Kathryn had asked Xandria to stay out of her business, but thetter felt that Yuliana was


    her best friend. Xandria thought that it was her responsibility to tell Yuliana when she saw Christopher


    flirting with another woman and getting into a car with her hand in hand.


    However, if that caused the divorce between Yuliana and Christopher, making Yuliana so sad, Xandria


    would regret it and me herself.

    Yuliana knew what Xandria was thinking. “It has nothing to do with you,” she answered.


    “Then… Is it because of Scarlett’s case?”


    Yuliana shook her head and smiled. “Not really. He just wants to divorce me.”


    Xandria didn’t understand what Yuliana meant. When she was about to rify further, thetter stood


    up and staggered toward the bathroom.


    Having cried her heart out, Yuliana sobered


    1.


    Yuliana washed her face with cold water and felt more clear-headed. Then, she stood by the sink for a


    few minutes. When she came out again, the previous sadness on her face disappeared. Her swollen


    eyes were the only evidence of her crying prior to this.


    She said to Xandria, “Xani, I’m going home.”


    Startled, Xandria immediately stood up. Her knees hit the coffee table, and the pain made her grimace.


    “It’s sote already. Why don’t you sleep over tonight?”


    “I’m worried about Roe.” Yuliana knew Xandria was worried about her, so she added, “Don’t worry. I’m


    fine.”


    Since Yuliana said that, Xandria could not insist on making her stay.


    Xandria couldn’t drive Yuliana back as she had drunk some alcohol. Instead, she sent Yuliana


    downstairs. After seeing Yuliana get in the car and leave, she went upstairs to clean up the mess and


    asked a designated driver to drive her back to the Yeager residence.


    Xandria was quite a scaredy cat. She found it a little creepy to sleep in such a big apartment alone.


    When Yuliana returned home, Rowan had fallen asleep, to her surprise.


    Hailey said, “He cried for a while when it was time for bed, but he fell asleep after


    I coaxed him for a while. You don’t have to worry too much.”


    “Thank you, Hailey.”


    Hailey smiled and said, “Roe is just like my grandson. Don’t worry about it.”


    Yuliana thought that since Christopher’s freedom was limited, the divorce procedures would be a little


    cumbersome. Unexpectedly, Christopher arranged everything so properly that she almost didn’t need


    to do anything. She just had to bring the required ID cards and materials and sign for confirmation.


    That was thest time Yuliana met Christopher.


    Except for the necessarymunication, they didn’t say another word to each other.


    The procedure was handled quickly and finished in less than half an hour.
