Chapter 36: Chapter 39: Getting Two Certificates at Once

Translator: 549690339

Ethan Wilson was indeed a man of action. After the two of them agreed on the terms, Lily Gray was immediately taken to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

On the way there, Lily subtly told Ethan that her documents were all withheld by the Gray family, so it might take some time to get her marriage certificate. However, Ethan seemed not to have heard her words and took her directly to the Bureau.

As they arrived at the Bureau, not only were there staff members to escort them, but Lily’s documents had also been prepared in advance.

Even more surprisingly, Austin Lucas had gone to the Bureau right after he left the Gray family, and had already completed the divorce procedures for both of them.

Thus, when Lily Gray came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she held two red notebooks in her hand.

One was a divorce certificate, the other a marriage certificate.

Having both certificates issued at once, Lily couldn’t help but laugh at the sympathetic and regretful expression the civil servant had shown towards Ethan while processing their marriage certificate.

She didn’t mind, but someone else’s face didn’t look too good.

Considering Ethan’s darkened face, Lily didn’t dare to provoke him and obediently followed behind him. When they got back into the car, the assistant Samuel Mckinley’s attitude towards her had completely changed.

When they had gotten out of the car earlier, he had only politely opened the door for her.

But now, as they got back into the car, Samuel respectfully waited by the door, reminding her to be careful as he opened the door, addressing her as “Young Lady”.

The car started up again quickly, with Ethan sitting to her left. Though they were close in proximity, the atmosphere between them was quite awkward.

From the moment they began taking photos for their marriage certificate, Lily had felt that Ethan had an uneasy presence about him. Once they entered the Civil Affairs Bureau, he barely spoke.

She had originally thought it was because of the divorce certificate, but now that she thought about it, it seemed that his face darkened as soon as they entered the Bureau.

Did she accidentally offend him?

Lily glanced at Ethan without a hint of her thoughts, trying to discern something from his face.

Ethan’s eyes were fixed on the window, a deep and unfathomable expression that made it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

In just a moment, all of Lily’s attention was drawn to this side of him.

His hair was neatly swept back, revealing his handsome and sharp features.

These were the most enchanting features she had ever seen, even more perfect and delicate than Austin Lucas, who had always prided himself on his extraordinary looks. They exuded more masculine charm and the poise of a person in a high position.

Lily Gray had only intended to figure out what Ethan was thinking, but she found herself getting lost in his appearance.

When Ethan turned to look at her, she finally snapped out of her trance and regained her senses.

“Do you need something?” he asked, his face already back to normal.

Thinking about her previous dazed state, Ethan’s lips curled into a

self-mocking smile. All that had happened was that he married a woman he had made an agreement with. With only a year to go, there was no need for him to ruin his mood over it.

Lily Gray completely missed the meaning behind Ethan’s smile.

Her mind was somewhat chaotic, and she felt embarrassed for having been caught stealing glances at him. Not wanting Ethan to mistake her as a “dumbstruck admirer,” she awkwardly tried to change the subject: “It’s nothing important…”

In a moment of sudden inspiration, she finally thought of something to say.

“I’m just curious, why me? Why are you helping me… There must be many better choices if you need someone to marry.”

It seemed a little late to be asking this question after getting the marriage certificate.

fMany people asked about the color of the divorce certificate, so here’s an explanation: the divorce certificate has changed colors—it went from green to red. The change was actually to get rid of outdated notions. In the past, people thought that divorce was shameful, so the color was changed to red to eliminate this differentiation..]
