The Second Chance For My Husband

Chapter 10: Divorce

Finally, the time comes today when Peony will take their divorce papers to court and Arion will get an invitation from the court. Peony deliberately wanted to get to court and hold a trial, in fact, she could have divorced well and without anyone knowing. Peony was embarrassed, actually because she had to endure all this. Peony doesn't even think about what people will say anymore, what her parents' relatives say. While wearing her sunglasses, Peony was confident to set off. She begins to find her new identity, but why after all that has happened inside.

Peony arrived at the court, with steady and light steps the woman entered the large building, which received complaints from people who wanted divorces, shared property and so on.

“Miss, what's the need?” asked one of the workers there.

“I want to file for divorce, do I have to see the judge first?” asked Peony.

“There is no need for Miss, you just file, and we will process, then send a letter of complaint from the plaintiff to the defendant,” he explained to Peony.

“So, I just need to hand over these files, right?” he asked again.

“Yes, please fill out the form and if it has been received, the file from the court will be sent to the defendant's address,” he said later. Peony, who also understood, finally nodded.

“Fine, thank you for the explanation.”

“If you may know, what file is this Miss? Divorce?” the official asked again. Peony also confirmed.

“Well, are there any demands for the division of property? If there is one, it can be added, but later you will have to meet during the trial, but otherwise the trial process may be faster and easier,” he said.

“No need, it's enough just to want a divorce,” Peony insisted.

The employee finally understood. And immediately take care of the file given by Peony. Thereafter, Peony said goodbye to go home because the processed files would be sent to Arion immediately, according to the address listed.

“Fine, we will contact Miss as soon as everything is done. It is likely to meet in court together. If we can still mediate, we will give it a chance.”

“Thank you,” Peony replied.

After the conversation about the divorce was over, Peony went home to Jessica, but before that, she wanted to cool her head and heart first. For a while, Peony wanted to stop by a café to get there, it turned out that there were so many people, all young people who were dating. Peony was not ready to meet many people in this condition, so Peony went to find another café. Her cell phone kept ringing because Arion kept pestering her.

Finally, Peony picked up the call half-heartedly, later Arion thought that she was avoiding Arion, even though it was true. It's just that Peony doesn't want to continue to make a fuss about things that are no longer important to her.

“What's wrong Arion?” she asked.

“Where are you?” The voice on the other side flashed instantly.

“Arion, I want to avoid talking to you anymore. We better not discuss anything anymore, let's get here.”

Peony immediately turned off the call without hearing the slightest explanation from Arion. After breaking off the call, Peony continued to find a café that was not too crowded because she was still lazy to go home to Jessica too soon. Jessica also went home last night, the woman had already said so. Even last night, they didn't have time to talk because Jessica came home late at night.

“Welcome miss,” greeted one of the employees when he saw Peony coming.

“Thank you,” the woman replied.

“Please, miss,” he said again, inviting Peony to sit anywhere.

Peony past choosing a place away from the central part of the café. Select a place on the edge while still being able to see the entrance. In case he encounters unexpected people today. And there are also glass windows that lead to the street and to the café side garden that has a fountain pool, for Peony enough to refresh the mind and wash the eyes with the view.

“What do you want to order, Miss?” asked one of the waiters.

“Lemon juice, and just cookies.”

“Wait a minute, miss, we will bring your order.”

“Thank you.”

As soon as the waiters left, Peony took out her mobile phone, and blocked all calls from Arion, as well as the man's social media, and deleted Arion's number, even so, she had actually memorized the man's cell phone number, how could she not? They have been in contact for quite a long time, it is impossible if Peony does not memorize it. Maybe Arion didn't, and to that man Peony was just an ordinary or easy woman, and also just a temporary stopover. But, for Peony it means a lot and after this, somehow Peony's fate with her romance will be. It's difficult to believe and find another good man out there. But, Peony will try, even though there is still trauma in her heart and mind.

Arion gets a summons that day from the court, not thinking for Arion why Peony wants a divorce. It does not give a definite reason, nor does it indicate in case there was a rebellion or in the division of property. He was so angry that he walked into the room in his office that Drake was shocked by it. Fortunately, his boss was not angry when many employees were out, and angry when he was alone. Drake thinks this is because Peony, the Master's wife, left her boss alone even though their marriage had only been two weeks away.

“Drake, bring me alcohol. Ah, even the most expensive wine or drink I will buy,” he said, telling Drake to buy alcohol because now Arion needed it. Arion never bought much alcohol to stock in his office and even at home. He enjoyed more alcohol in bars or clubs, or bought a lot to drink by himself, like today. Because he really needs it.

“Hi Peony,” one of the friends greeted Peony because he saw the woman sitting alone in the café.

“Hi, how are you?” asked Peony also to the woman.

“Fine, how are you? What about marriage?”

Remembering that she was getting a divorce, Peony just gave a wry smile, forced to smile to be precise.

“Yes, there you have it,” she replied.

“Peony, I go first, yes, my husband is waiting.” Peony just nodded.

“Ah, it turns out that being alone is not always lonely either,” she said.

arriving at night.

Jessica comes home early, says she's not working late, and finally Peony has a story partner for her last day of being a wife before she finally returns to singleness and leaves Seoul. I don't know how long it will take, what is certain is that Peony doesn't want to be here for a while.

“Arion met me Peony last night,” Jessica admitted.

“Hem, I expected, he came here Jessy,” Peony said.

“Are you serious?” asked Jessica incredulously. But Peony nodded.

“Yes, even she made such a fuss that I had to contact security and the mothers here protested,” Peony said.

“Ah, even though I told you that you're not here, Peony.”

“How could Arion trust Jess anymore, when she must know where I am because I don't have many friends here,” Peony explained, making Jessica finally understand and nod.

“So, what about your trial?” asked Jessica again.

“I've given you a letter of complaint, maybe tomorrow Arion will be contacted, and definitely he will contact me again. But, take it easy, I've asked him to meet in court only. Because the numbers have all been blocked,” Peony calmly replied.

“So, chances are you'll go to court tomorrow?” asked Jessica.

“Yes Jess, just pray for me. And, I've also decided to go. But I can't say where I'm going yet, for sure when I get to where I'm going, I'll let you know.” Jessica nodded in agreement because she was no longer worried about Peony.

“Alright, fighting spirit for tomorrow morning, Peony. I'll go to bed first, you too. I'm sure tomorrow won't be an easy day for you, either.” Peony nodded and told Jessica to rest first.
