The phrase "uncomfortable" could no longer be used to describe Zack.

He initially thought that a divorce with Katherine would be good for him.

However, as Zack's divorce was publicized, his phone began to ring with calls from his childhood

friends.

All calls began with the same question, "Zack, you really divorced Katherine?"

It wasn't a tough question for him to answer.

He had no intention of hiding the news of his divorce, not to mention the fact that he couldn't hide what

happened this morning.

"Yes” Zack answered them all honestly in a cold tone.

The caller inhaled and said, "Oh my God! The foolish Katherine finally gave up on you? I'm not sure,

though, whether I should congratulate you or sympathize with your situation.

Katherine was one of a kind and hard to find in our circle.

You're lucky to have found her.

She was just simply a little foolish, easy to bully, she also loves money, but there was nothing wrong

with her"

Zack, who waited to be congratulated, was now confused with his friend's words.

‘What kind of friends were they?’ Many of his friends were like that.

Zack's mood turned gloomy like the sky that would throw a raging storm after receiving three similar

calls in a row.

But, the divorce with Katherine wasn't the only thing that had put him in a terrible mood.

Aidan abruptly informed him that Victoria had arrived just after he dealt with his awful friends who made

fun of his situation.

The issue of his divorce with Katherine on the internet was huge, and Zack instantly knew why Victoria

came.

Victoria's face lit up with delight on the way after learning that Katherine and Zack had divorced, but

she wasn't so thrilled with the trending news on Twitter.

‘‘How did this Tyler get involved with Katherine?’’ Victoria silently thought to herself.

Tyler even admitted to being secretly in love with Katherine for a long time.

Even though he knew that he and Katherine couldn't end up together, he stated that he had always

hoped that Katherine would cut her connections with the Colburn family.

As a result, he was happy to confess as a good friend to his long-time love.

Victoria instantly understood the meaning of those little statements from Tyler.

Victoria rushed into Zach's office with a smile on her face, which quickly faded as she asked him,

"Zack, tell me the truth.

Did you divorced because Katherine had an affair with Tyler behind your back?"

Even though Zack was unsuccessfully married to Katherine for three years, he was not willing to be

cheated on by his wife.

Zack's face darkened.

"What are you implying, Mom?"

Katherine had a rebuttal on Victoria a few days ago.

Now that Victoria had read the news on the internet claiming that she was abused, she knew that the

people would criticize her son.

All she could do was overthink about it and panic.

"Check it out yourself! The woman's suitor picked her up just as both of you were parting ways at the

Civil Affairs Bureau! Who knows, maybe they are already together.I won't allow them to disgrace our

family's name in this manner!" Victoria ranted.

Zack had just returned from a meeting in the Civil Affairs Bureau to sign the divorce.

He had expected that the news of his divorce from Katherine would be viral but not much like this.

Zack's heart seemed to be wounded after he saw the words "secretly in love with Katherine for many

years."

For a moment, he wondered if Katherine really had an affair with the man behind his back since it was

quick for her to agree with the divorce.

It was impossible, though.

Even if Zack didn't like Katherine that much, he knew how her mother had treated Katherine by

ordering her around all day.

She couldn't possibly have the time to cheat.

"Katherine and I, Mom, are already divorced.It was peacefully done, and she wasn't interested in

anything.Just pretend that this person does not exist.I suggest that you avoid watching entertainment

news about it" Zack said.

Victoria was furious.

It wasn't just because of the trend.

Of course, Katherine must have gotten a lot of money from the Colburn family, since she was willing to

divorce.

Zack, on the other hand, had informed her mother that Katherine wanted nothing.

Victoria was still skeptical.

"Did she say she didn't want anything? Wasn't it for money that she lived in our house for three years?

How can she not desire anything now that she was willing to divorce you?"

Zack no longer wanted to deal with his mother, so he called Aidan through the intercom.

"Show the divorce agreement to my mother"

He then grabbed his coat and walked away.

Victoria asked her son as she gazed at his back, "Zack, aren't you going home to eat with your

mother?"

"Yes," Zack answered.

It was normal for Zack not to go home to the Colburn's villa.

Firstly, Katherine had a not-so-good relationship with his family, contrary to what the outsiders knew.

Zack finally could calm down as he returned to his apartment.

Zack didn't have much time to think about his divorce from Katherine.

He went to see what Katherine wanted from him this morning.

He hadn't thought that Katherine would really divorce him.

Katherine did pay a small amount of money, just as Sean had stated.

She was adorable, and she really loved Zack.

‘How could she divorce me easily when she was greedy for money?’ Zack silently thought to

himself.Because of that, he left their initial agreement since he thought that Katherine would ask for a

condition, but to his surprise, Katherine had another copy of the said agreement.

Zack was, to be honest, a little perplexed at that time.

He followed Katherine's instructions.

Then he had the divorce certificate in his hands in no time.

Right, the certificate was now in his pocket! He took the divorce certificate out.

It was still the same red color.

However, instead of "Marriage Certificate; it was now replaced with "Divorce Certificate.'' He thought it

was brilliant for some reason.

He then raised his hand and tossed it into the nearby garbage can.

The phone on the side rang unexpectedly.

Zack gazed at it with his head tilted with absolutely no intention of picking it up.

However, the caller seemed to have no plan on giving up.

With a dark expression on his face, he picked up his phone, and as he looked at the caller, his face

grew darker, "Why are you calling?"

Sean was the one who called earlier and gloated, and it was just two hours after he called.

He probably had nothing else to do than to tease Zack about the divorce, while Zack couldn't think of

anything else he could do.

"What? You're not even going to celebrate your divorce?" Sean asked.

"Get lost.’ Zack snarled.

Sean was not someone he wanted to talk to.

Zack cursed and was ready to hang up when Sean said something.

"By the way, I am currently at Katherine Wilson's single party.Your ex-wife was actually a wonderful

person.She had paid for all the beverages on the banquet's first floor tonight.Weren't these from your

hard-earned money?" Sean lightly mocked him.

"She didn't ask for a single penny, Zack said as he frowned.Sean was speechless.Sean was the one

who was taken aback this time.

‘Who in Y City didn't know how Katherine loves money?’ he silently thought to himself.

Before, Victoria had fainted due to low blood sugar.

Katherine came across her and took her to the hospital.

Zack asked her how he could thank her.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she instantly demanded ten million dollars, and before Zack could

agree, Katherine instantly changed it to a hundred million.

Someone that time had snapped a photo of them and uploaded it online.

Zack's face darkened, but then Katherine had changed her condition again.

She then quickly said that she wanted to marry Zack.

Katherine was greedy.

Ten million dollars doesn't satisfy Katherine anymore, she just wants the worth of what Zach could

bring.

They didn't have a real label on their relationship after three years of marriage.

Katherine was the center of his circle of friends’ laughter.

They assumed that after Katherine and Zack divorced, she would accept a few hundred million dollars

from Zack no matter what.

However, if Sean heard it correctly, Katherine didn't take a single penny from Zach?
