Freya's POV
I stared at Jasper Tristan like he was some kind of creature I had never seen before. My entire understanding of human decency crumbled in that moment.
"This is the first time I have ever heard someone describe cheating as a noble sacrifice. You make betrayal sound like some kind of heroic act. Jasper Tristan, you can make whatever choices you want. That is not my concern. But my choices are mine to make, and you have no say in them. I have already made my decision clear. Divorce. No negotiation."
Jasper Tristan kept that stubborn tone. "I refuse. Even if you take this to court, they cannot force a divorce without my consent."
"That might be true for the first hearing. But the second time around, they will grant it. You are just prolonging the inevitable by a few months." My resolve matched his stubbornness.
When Jasper Tristan realized I would not budge, he fell silent. Then he shifted tactics completely.
