My Mistress Became My Wife (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 109

The law office Emily found was near the entertainment district. Its main clientele were people working in that area—it wasn’t a place a noble would normally visit—but Lily chose it anyway. Precisely because it was such a place, she could better conceal her identity. If she formally hired the lawyer, she’d eventually have to reveal everything—her status and her situation—but until then, she wanted to keep it hidden as much as possible. That was also why she’d borrowed clothes from a maid.

“You two wait here for a moment.”

Lily separated herself from Emily and Harry and climbed the stairs leading to the law office.

The law office was as old and shabby as the building’s exterior, yet reasonably clean. The lawyer himself was also neatly dressed.

“I’ve come to seek your legal advice on a matter.”

Lily explained her reason for visiting, hoping the lawyer’s skills were at least decent. Naturally, she didn’t mention her name or social standing. Avoiding anything that might hint at those details made her explanation somewhat vague.

Would this even qualify for a consultation? Shouldn’t she be more specific?

“…Given this situation, would divorce be possible?”

Lily swallowed her rising anxiety and asked the lawyer. She planned to reveal more information only if necessary, after hearing his initial response.

Perhaps it was indeed due to insufficient information. The lawyer frowned slightly and stared blankly at the consultation notes he’d jotted down from Lily’s account. The wait for his answer felt like an eternity. As tension built up and her mouth grew parched, Lily drank the water the clerk had brought her.

Please, please say it’s possible to divorce Frederick Benjamin.

Just as Dillon had anticipated, Lily had secretly sought out a lawyer to officially divorce Frederick Benjamin. Although maintaining the marriage might be the right thing to do for her mother’s sake, that same reason made it impossible for her to simply overlook Frederick.

After all, Frederick Benjamin was the madman who’d desecrated her father’s grave just because his pride had been slightly wounded.

Perhaps Frederick was also the one who’d ordered Brian to kill Olben.
