However, he couldn’t help but picture someone else in his mind. That person was seated in the cockpit, piloting the plane high into the sky and performing intricate maneuvers.
For some reason, the image of Quinn piloting the plane left a more profound impression on him than that of Sidonic.
“Don’t stress too much about the company,” Sidonie reassured. “My mother’s family is one of the prominent families in the area. Right now, they’re looking to develop an island and need a tech company, especially one skilled in drone technology, to get involved. You could give it a shot. I’ll be there to support you.”
Trent’s eyes lit up.
Tech companies were a dime a dozen in Jexburgh, and the competition was incredibly fierce.
If one were to venture into a first–tier city, there would be significantly less competition. Moreover, it offered the opportunity to dominate the local market. That could very well be a clever and unconventional strategy.
“Sidonic, thank you!” Trent uttered gratefully. “Not only did you save me back then, but you’ve also been helping me all along.”
Sidonic chuckled. “Why should we be so formal with each other? I just want the best for you!”
She was determined to make a name for herself in the Stonehurst family. She wanted to prove that the second branch of the Stonehurst family was more capable than the main branch. She sought to make those who had once looked down on her bow their heads in her presence. That was why she was committed to helping Trent. She wanted to ensure his success.
That way, she could finally attain everything she desired.
The next day, at the City Hall, Quinn and Trent collected their waiting number and sat in the waiting area.
“I’ll transfer one million five hundred thirty thousand to you,” Trent said. “What’s your bank account number?”
Quinn provided her bank details, and Trent transferred the funds. A total of one million five hundred thirty thousand was swiftly deposited into Quinn’s account.
She looked at the notification on her phone, which showed a deposit of one million five hundred thirty thousand. A hint of nostalgia flickered in her eyes.
For her, it wasn’t just about the money. It was the final expression of love from Montague and Arlene.
Trent then murmured, “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize how much you’ve sacrificed. If I had known earlier-”
“Had you known earlier, would you have severed ties with Sidonie? Or perhaps, refrained from showering her with such lavish jewels? Or maybe, after your mother and sister did such outrageous things to
in that hotel room, you would have acted impartially, had them arrested, and ensured they received e punishment they deserved?”

Trent was left speechless.

Quinn smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm, “Well, what’s the point of your apology? It’s just empty words! Besides, I don’t need such an apology!”
At that moment, Trent seemed somewhat hesitant to meet Quinn’s gaze.
When it was their turn, the two of them approached and sat down in front of the staff member.
The paperwork wasn’t complicated and was finished quite quickly.
The two divorce certificates symbolized that they had no connection whatsoever from then on.
Quinn gazed at the certificate in her hand and let out a relieved smile. From that moment on, she was no longer Trent’s wife. She was simply Quinn.
Just as Quinn was about to leave, Trent suddenly called out, “Wait!”
“Yes, Mr. Grafton?” She turned her head to look at him.
Trent felt incredibly gratified by that form of address. “I haven’t had the chance to pay my respects to your parents yet. I know it’s a bit late, but could you take me to visit their graves?”
Quinn suddenly broke into laughter, finding the situation utterly ridiculous.
Back when they were still married, he had never once paid respects to Montague and Arlene. He stood her up continuously and left her disappointed time and time again.
However, once they were divorced, he offered to pay his respects. Quinn couldn’t help finding the idea laughable.
“Trent, my parents don’t need you to pay your respects!” Quinn uttered and didn’t spare glance, walking straight out of the City Hall.
Outside the City Hall, Laura’s car was already waiting.

Quinn got into the car, picked up the cremation urn placed on the passenger seat, and gently set it on her lap.
“Have you divorced him?” asked Laura.
“Yes!” Quinn pulled out her divorce certificate to show Laura. “From now on, I no longer have anything to do with Trent.”
Quinn figured she should consider herself lucky. In the three years they were married, Trent had never really touched her, and they hadn’t had any children together.
Otherwise, if they had a child, even if they got divorced, they’d probably still be entangled with each other because of the child.
“Has he given you that one million five hundred thirty thousand?” Laura asked again.
“Yes.”

“At least he kept his word for once,” Laura was clearly still upset with Trent. “When you return from Yarburn in the future, I’ll take you to pray and ward off the bad luck! You are extremely unlucky to have been married to a man like that!”
With a smile, Quinn gently ran her fingers over the national flag draped over the cremation urn. “Let’s go to the airport!”
That day, she was set to journey to Yarburn, carrying with her the ashes of Montague and Arlene.
That was the hometown of Montague and Arlene.
Arlene was an orphan, taken in by the Bridger family when she was just a child. Later, she married her adoptive parents‘ son.
Quinn remembered Montague and Arlene once saying that if the day came when they passed away, they wished to be buried back in their hometown and return to where they belonged.
Hence, she planned to lay Montague and Arlene to rest in Hero’s Memorial Garden back in their hometown.
When Laura dropped Quinn off at the airport, the latter said, “Go on ahead. I can board the plane by myself.”
