She whipped up oatmeal, flipped pancakes, and even simmered some chicken soup. Once everything was done, the helper assisted in setting it all out on the outdoor dining table. Nash happened to descend from upstairs, and Nina called out to him, "Come on, breakfast's ready."

In that moment, sunlight draped Nina in a beautiful golden hue, making her appear radiant. Nash felt like everything was right again, as if they were back to their old selves. But it was only fleeting because afte breakfast, they had to head to the district court to schedule an appointment.

Nash was not really feeling breakfast, but he could not avoid it. Nina was a skilled cook, and everything she made was delicious and comforting.

After breakfast, they headed out together. Nash did not call for the driver or Quincy. He drove himself, with Nina in the passenger seat, just like the day they got their marriage certificate. Though the weather was not as good that day.

At the district court, there were not many people at the marriage registration window, but there was a queue for divorce appointments. They waited for about half an hour before it was their turn.

The staff took a glance at the date, then at their marriage certificate. Noticing that they had not received an appointment date for a month later, the staff member intervened. "You've been married for three years, and now you're seeking a divorce. Was there infidelity involved, or what's the situation?"

Neither Nash nor Nina responded, but Nash's expression was grim.

Before Nina could speak, the staff interjected, "Do you have children? Any shared assets? How do you plan to handle negotiations?"

Nina replied, "There's been no infidelity, no children, and no shared assets. We've simply grown apart and want a divorce. Considering the one-month cooling-off period, when can we expect to schedule an appointment?"

"Two months from now."

Upon hearing the time given by the staff, Nina was completely stunned. "Why two months? Isn't the cooling-off period only one month?"

Nina was also anxious. Two months later, her belly would start showing. Would Nash still divorce her then?

The staff glanced at her indifferently. "There are many divorce appointments scheduled, and according to the schedule, this is your time. Since there's no dispute between you, even if you take it to court, it likely won't be granted. Maybe you should reconsider."

Not granted a divorce by the court? This made Nina dizzy. Was divorce really this difficult now under the current policies?

Nina had to suppress her frustration. "Let's stick to the appointment."

She took the appointment slip and walked out of the district court feeling dejected. Her mind was filled with thoughts of how to divorce more quickly.

That was it! Nash cared so much about Miranda. She could gather evidence of Nash and Miranda's relationship and then present the contract they signed when they got married to the judge. With a better lawyer, they would likely declare her marriage with Nash invalid.

"Nina, what are you scheming?"

Nash, who had just walked out of the district court, had been watching Nina the whole time, noticing her silence, contemplation, and the range of emotions from frustration to happiness.

Unable to hold back any longer, Nash threw the question at Nina.

Nina quickly snapped back to reality. "It's not exactly scheming. I just came up with a better way to divorce."

Nash felt a weight in his heart. "Nina, are you genuinely that happy about getting a divorce?"
