Godfery Shaw certainly wasn't planning on getting a divorce.
He just hoped Amelia Wright wouldn't be with Elijah Jefferson.
When he first received the bracelet, Godfery Shaw was as happy as he could be. Now, he's just as miserable.
Looking at Amelia Wright with her usual indifferent expression, Godfery Shaw suddenly didn't know what to say. He wanted Amelia Wright to leave Elijah Jefferson, wanted her to wait for him.
But Amelia Wright never said she liked him, she'd always been cold towards him, and they never had feelings for each other. What right did he have to say those things?
In the past, she was lonely and helpless, facing the oppression from the Wright family, the malice from Marsh Smith, and he had a reason to bring her back to his side.
But now, the Shaw family behind him was a man-eating beast, he couldn't protect her, and letting go was actually for her good.
