(MoonlitMountain) Chapter 10
Judith showed him the divorce
certificate.
“Sarah didn’t tell you about this?”
Caleb looked confused. He knew he
signed the papers, but he didn’t know I
had even gotten the certificates! The divorce had been a month in the making!
He asked why Judith helped me and set him up with Olivia.
“I know that Olivia broke your heart. But now she’s back, and you’re divorced. I thought…”
Everyone used to say he and Olivia
weren’t made for each other. Now,
everyone said they were perfect together.

He felt uneasy.“But I didn’t agree to

divorce Sarah.” As he said that, he felt a
pang of panic. He’d gotten used to me
taking care of him, and he couldn’t
imagine life without me. I loved him so deeply that the divorce must be a joke.
Judith showed him the contract. It
was a contract about paying a debt of
gratitude and my signature was on it.“Mom, what’s this?”
Judith explained, “When Olivia left you for her ex–husband, you were heartbroken. I wanted someone to help
you move on.” She asked me to fulfill the
contract and I did it well. I had never
called her Mom and considered myself as
Mrs. Hayes.

Judith would treat me as her daughter— in–law forever if Olivia never returned.
But as soon as the contract ended, Olivia
came back and Caleb had an accident on
his way to her. Before she could do
anything, I’d asked for a divorce.
Caleb was stunned. Everything I did for him was because of the contract? I’d
never loved him? That was why I was so
eager to divorce him when Olivia
returned? But my love for him couldn’t have been fake! He clutched the contract,
his face darkening. It turned out that
nothing was real.
