Williams would not budge an inch. As far as I could remember, he had always been a calm person. But at this moment,
suddenly erupted in anger.
He grabbed Ryan by the collar and swung at him.
“Get out! This is a family matter. Who are you to push me away?!”
Seeing how unreasonable he was, I could not hold back any longer.
Following a loud smack, everyone fell silent.
Williams covered his face and stared at me in disbelief.
I stepped forward and held Ryan’s hand.
Then, I smiled and looked at Williams.
“Pardon me. I haven’t introduced you to my boyfriend, Ryan.
“Technically, he has the right to kick you out.”
Williams raised his hands and covered his eyes as he cried like a child in front of me.
When we first got divorced, I had imagined how he would regret it in my head,
However, I did not feel the satisfaction I was expecting when I saw how helpless he was.
Perhaps it was because I truly did not care anymore. No matter what happened, I would not feel much emotion.
Before he left, he reached out for a hug, but I pushed him away.
“Williams, don’t come back ever again. Let me have some peace, okay?”
He nodded silently and prepared to leave with James. But James clung to my leg and begged me to let him stay.
His face was flushed from crying, and he could not even speak coherently.
“Mom, please don’t chase me out.
“I promise I won’t argue with you anymore, and I’ll do my homework seriously. Please don’t make me leave!“:
Williams tugged at his collar with a stern face and dragged him away.
He did not look back, not even once, and they disappeared into the elevator.
Everything had finally come to an end.
From then on, we would live our lives in peace,

Six months later, Ryan proposed to me.
When he kneeled down and pulled out the ring, I teared up.
It was huge and beautiful.
It was more stunning than any of the rings that I had seen at the counters.
He trembled when he put the ring on my finger, and thunderous applause followed.
Everyone was celebrating with us, and I felt a deep sense of calmness in me.
Perhaps this was how love felt.
It gave us peace, not insecurity.
Most importantly, it made us feel that we were worthy of love and that I was worthy of everything
Ryan held a grand wedding for us, and I did not have to worry about a single thing.
I did not send an invitation to Williams, but he still showed up on my wedding day.
