Chapter 29 Willow stood up . If this isnt something we can actually talk about , then Ill have to excuse myself , she said . Charlottes eyes turned icy , her gaze sharp . Willow , do you really want to destroy your marriage just to make yourself feel better ? Theres a limit to everything- throwing a tantrum is one thing , but not everyone is going to tolerate your behavior ! Willow responded , her voice calm , Mom , no one would joke about divorce . The papers have already been filed ; were just waiting for the process to start . Charlottes face drained of color , her expression one of complete shock . Are you serious ? Krystal immediately stood up . +23 ) Willow , you cant be impulsive ! Think about the child . Are you really going to let your kid grow up with divorced parents ? A broken home ? Charlotte braced herself on the table and stood up , no longer carrying the same authority as before . Youre really going through with this? Willow replied , still calm , Dont use the child to manipulate me . She had been trapped for six long years . Way too long . Willow continued , Children are sensitive . Dont assume that because theyre young , they dont understand . A dysfunctional family will cause them lasting pain . After the divorce , I wont stop Elijah from moving on . Her tone was steady , her gaze unwavering . You all care about Elijah and Bobby . Whos going to care about me ? Im tired of being Mrs. The world is big , and I want to be Willow . Without another word , Willow turned and walked out of the café , leaving the group behind , stunned into silence . Charlotte swayed , then collapsed into her chair . She thought , Willow is really serious about divorcing ? How could this be ? How could she let go of Elijah ? And they have a child ! Alana quickly grabbed Charlottes hand . Stay calm . Shes probably just talking . Shes loved him for so many years feelings arent something you can just let go of like that . 1/3 08:49 Wed , 12 Mar BBN Chapter 29 Charlotte , still dazed , murmured to herself . They cant get divorced . Theresa nodded in agreement . A womans first priority after marriage is her family . The man is the pillar of the household . 94 % She says she doesnt want to be Mrs. Clark and wants to be Willow , but shes ignoring her husband and child . Shes clearly lost her mind . Alana shrugged , offering a solution . Dont stress about it too much . When the process starts , if Elijah doesnt show up , the divorce wont happen . And if it doesnt happen , theres always a chance to fix things . Charlottes eyes brightened . She thought , Thats right . Alana continued , Shes already in the Clark familys door , but getting out wont be so easy . Besides , shes an orphan . If we keep her here , no one will come to her rescue . Charlotte sneered . She thought , Well said . Divorce ? Not so fast ! Charlotte finally relaxed , feeling reassured . She happily headed off to her gathering with her rich housewife friends . +23 ) ***** Willow left the café but wasnt in the mood to head home for a nap . Instead , she decided to return Declans umbrella and towel to him at the office . As soon as she entered the building , the security guard stopped her . Are you Mrs. Clark ? Willow nodded . Sorry , Mr. Turner specifically said you cant come in . Willow blinked , confused . Turner ? Declan ? Yeah . Willow hesitated , unsure whether to speak up . Willow thought , Good news : I havent been exposed . Bad news : I cant get in . If she forced her way in , shed definitely be exposed . 2/3 12 Chapter 29 Willow sighed and stepped back , texting Ruby to pass the umbrella and towel on to Declan . Ruby , holding the bag with the items , gave Willow a knowing look . I see a story behind these . It was raining that day , and Mr. Turner lent them to me , Willow explained . Ruby raised an eyebrow , surprised . Since when did Mr. Turner become so … thoughtful ? Last year , a female employee , thinking she could win his favor with her looks , showed up drenched in front of Declan . Even as a woman , Ruby felt sorry for her . But Declan hadnt even looked at her . Ruby didnt press for more details , though . Dont forget about the press conference . Once the location is confirmed , Ill let you know . Okay , thanks . Ruby took the bag inside and contacted Declans assistant to deliver the items . Turner , these are from Rita . Declan glanced at the bag . Where is she ? I didnt see Rita , but Ruby asked me to pass this along . The assistant , unsure if it was just a feeling , noticed the air around Declan grow colder after hearing this . Leave it there . The assistant nodded quickly . But as he did , his eyes briefly met Declans . Calm and composed as always , but there was an unspoken tension that made the assistant feel a sudden pressure . He quickly lowered his head , avoiding Declans gaze , and placed the bag on the shelf . Title: A Princess? No! I'm the Female General! In "A Princess? No!
