NovelAppChapter 1067 Barrett ignored Viola. He staggered to his feet and stumbled up the stone steps to the door.
Inside, it was pitch black. He fumbled around for a long while before finding the matchstick and lighting a lamp. The tiny, flickering light cast dancing shadows across the room in Blessed Haven.
The place was bare. The furniture-simple, everyday pieces offered no comfort. The only things of value were the doors and windows that had been reinforced with ironwood.
He sat there, dazed, as Viola continued to rant outside.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe yelled for a while, but Barrett didn't respond.
After a moment, Viola snapped in a burst of frustration, "If you're still thinking of the past, then there's no need for us to keep wasting time. Let's get a divorce." The word "divorce" struck Barrett like a blow, pulling him out of the suffocating memories he had been lost in. He looked up-but the dim light couldn't reach his eyes, which were lost in shadow.
"Divorce?" he repeated.
"Yes!" Viola shouted, throwing her umbrella and lamp aside as she stomped into the room, soaked from the rain. Her face twisted in madness. "I've already been divorced once! I don't care about a second time. Barrett, you don't care about me, and I don't care about you. Thomas hasn't married yet, and he's my true husband. I'll go to him." Barrett was stunned. "Thomas?" "He's a thousand times better than you!" Viola snapped. "I was always meant to be his wife. He died on the battlefield, and that's why we missed our chance with each other. But now that he's alive again, I can go to him.” Slowly, Barrett's mind started to clear. He should have been angry, but for sreason, he wasn't. In fact, he found himself mocking her.
"Thomas doesn't want you anymore." Viola winced, the words cutting deep. Without thinking, she blurted out, "Then I'll go to Silas!" "Silas?" Barrett didn't know who she was talking about, but it seemed like such a familiar non her lips. "Who's he?" Viola froze for a moment after saying the name, recalling that reckless time. Somehow, she found herself feeling a bit nostalgic. She had never truly cared for Silas, but now, looking back, she realized that he had been the one to offer her warmth when she had needed it +25 BONUS Chapter 1067 most.
"Who's Silas?" Barrett stared at Viola, his heart devoid of jealousy, envy, or anger. He no longer felt those emotions. Instead, he thought to himself that if such a person existed, then he should let her 1. go. It would be better for both of them, so there would be no more unrest in their home.
Men like him didn't deserve a wife.
"It was just a random name," Viola snapped, her tone defensive as she plopped down onto a chair, turning her face slightly to hide the unease in her eyes. "I just want to make it clear that I am not someone who needs you. I'm your primary wife, but you never showedeven the most basic respect! You're a worthless failure. What right do you have to throw your tantrums at me?" Barrett sat silently, listening to her bitter words. His heart grew heavier with every insult. He had long believed that he was no longer of any worth, and with Viola coming from a noble family, it only made sense that she looked down on him.
"If you want to go after whoever that man is, then go," he said, his voice flat. "I agree to the divorce." Initially, Viola was just venting in anger. She had hoped that he would beg her to stay and try to fix things. When he actually agreed...she was stunned.
He really agreed! All the hurt and humiliation she had felt over the years rushed to the surface. What had she gained from marrying into the Warren family? Only constant insults and neglect. Even the simplest respect in a marriage had been denied to her.

Her rage grew. "Fine! If you're agreeing to the divorce, then let's do it!" Barrett stood up and walked over to her, gently helping her to sit in a chair.
His tone was serious as he said, "Alright. Take whatever you want from the estate. I won't stop you. The dowry you Brought with you, I won't touch a single coin. But Aurora's three thousand silver coins-those cannot be taken." Viola was in disbelief.

"If that's what you want, then I respect your decision," Barrett replied, his eyes filled with guilt.m "Viola, I'm sorry. I've let you and so many others down. I don't want to burden you anymore. Let's part ways cleanly. There's nothing left here for you to stay for. From now +25 BONUS apter 1067 on, we'll go our own way in life. I pray you will find a better husband." At that moment, Viola felt a kind of despair that crushed her to the core
