Chapter 472 The Country Won’t Let Us Divorce

“What’s the update?”

Caesar was dumbfounded.

In matters beyond family law, the country’s administration held ultimate authority.

If it was an update to the legislation, the order would not reach Lilyrose family court yet.

It could only mean that the update was important and urgent.

“The mandatory waiting period for filing a divorce was supposed to be introduced in the new year.”

The employee added with a shocked look, “We got word from the administration that the rule will take effect right away.”

“A mandatory waiting period? What is that?”

Agnes and the others were stunned.

“Mrs. Quint, in other words, we don’t process the filing of divorce right

away anymore. They can file, but the divorce will only be finalized after a month.”

While talking, Caesar stole a glance at Kaze. He could not read anything on Kaze’s face.

However, Caesar had his suspicions that the new law came into effect ahead of time because of Kaze.

Kaze’s words were the law, literally speaking.

Agnes panicked.

Another month? She could not wait a minute more.

“Kiev…”

She turned to Kiev, hoping he could talk to Caesar and finalize the

divorce anyway.

Not wanting things to go south, Kiev said, “Mr. Braders, the new rule is just introduced. No one will say anything if you implement it a

minute later.

“I’ll owe you one for getting this expedited for me, Mr. Braders.”

Normally, Caesar would not mind getting a favor from Kiev. However, he had to consider Kaze’s feelings since he was there.

Caesar looked at Kaze, his heart dropping when the latter smiled sarcastically at him.

He wiped away the smile and said matter-of-factly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Clifford. I can’t bend the rules for you.”

“Mr. Braders!”

Kiev scowled and wanted to throw a fit.

It struck him that he was not at South River State Strategic

Department, so he curled his lips and said, “I would appreciate it, Mr. Braders, if-”

“No.” Caesar refused firmly.

Kiev grimaced. There was nothing more he could do as Caesar would not budge.

“You’re a law-abiding citizen, Mr. Braders.”

Kaze got up and patted Caesar’s shoulder with a smile.

He then turned to Agnes, Kiev, and the others. “See? I told you that the

country might not allow me and Darcy to divorce.”

Agnes was tempted to tear Kaze’s smug and snarky face apart.

Kiev resisted the urge to punch him.

Agatha’s family let out strange looks.

They could not wrap their heads around the situation.

Why was a new law implemented when Kaze and Darcy were about to file for divorce?

The coincidence was eerie.

It somehow felt like the timing of the law implementation was

deliberate.

However, that was impossible.

Exasperated, Anges hissed through clenched teeth. “How did you know that the country will move ahead with the new legislation, dummy?”

“I told the country that I didn’t want to divorce Darcy.”

Kaze told the truth with a smile.

Nevertheless, everybody dismissed him.

“Who do you think you are? Why should the country listen to you?”

Kiev scoffed and hid his disappointment as he mocked. “You were just lucky, but so what? The divorce will be finalized a month later anyway.”

“Enough, Kiev!”
