I thought you wanted to walk away without knowing who Stefan was. Raven was curious to see what they wanted to show her. What part of Stefan she doesn’t know? Is it the part he normally carries girls to hotels and sleeps with them for money? Katherine brought out the pictures of Stefan and Lisa then handed it over to Raven who seemed so frightened by the pictures. She glared at her grandmother, uncle and mother who was staring at her as her heart pant so heavily, over everything that has been happening in her eyes. “What is this picturegrandmother?” She had no choice but to ask Katherine such questions since she seemed really so confused about everything that was happening. “Can’t you tell what this is?” Katherine was confused about Raven ‘s behavior and why she was acting like that. She’s just acting like a child because they expected her to understand fhe picture.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“You need to divorce Stefan and be free from him, Raven. You can’t continue to be with a womanizer like him. You need to find a better man like Derek who will take good care of you! Forget about Stefan, he doesn’t have anything to offer in this family. If you continue to keep him around you then I’m afraid that he will find a way to take the company from you “. Katherine uttered as Richard beam a smile on hearing Katherine’s speech. Finally, she had decided to raise such a speech. “You need to listen to us, Raven. We are your family. We know what is right and wrong for you, just as my mother had said, Stefan can brainwash you or even find a way for you to handle the company to him if you’re not careful. Why do you think he chose to marry someone like you in the first place? It was for him to inherit the company but since he couldn’t, he will try to take it away from you”. Richard, her Uncle spoke with seriousness
Tears pricked out of her eyes as they uttered Those words to her which seemed to be true. “We didn’t say you should cry, okay?! What we are asking of you is to be strong enough to divorce him. I’m sure your father will be so happy to hear of the news when he has woke up from coma”. Her mother advice as she cleaned off her tears. “Do you think so?” Katherine hugged her granddaughter and kissed her on the forehead.
“You can do this Raven! This is all for the best. Tomorrow I will call our family lawyer and he will be here as a witness when the two of you sign the divorce paper”. Raven was confused. Although Stefan was an impoverished man, she wanted to build a family with him. She wanted him and her to have something special together but remembering he and Ava together shattered her mind and made her sad. She was just so furious on how Stefan could agree to go on a contract date with her, in order to lie to everyone that she has finally found a boyfriend.
“Thank you so much grandmother. I will go look for the divorce paper tonight before going to sleep”. She assured them and walked away feeling confident over her decision this time around.

Stefan waved Ava goodbye at ava as he drove away. Heading back to the Black family house. It was already 6am in the morning and Stefan decided to go and put on a new dress before going to work. On his way there, he receives a call from Katherine who tells him to leave wherever he is right now and come straight to the house. He increases the pace of the car and fires the ignition more in order for him to get there on time.
On the other hand he was really nervous to hear what they had to say to him. He finally got there after ten minutes of a quick ride. Entering the setting room, he found Raven, Richard, Katherine and Raven’s mother who was seated in the parlor, waiting for him and there behold a man in a lawyer uniform. “Good morning!!” He greeted everyone, giving them that respect of Grandson In-law before asking them what was wrong.
” Raven, Is everything okay??” He questioned her as he stationed himself in one position. He panicked at the sight of Katherine who was approaching him. And just as he had thought, he received a sudden unexpected slap from her with a frown look. “Tell me! Who gave you the right to play with my granddaughter anyhow you want? Does she look like a playing toy to you?
Stefan looked at Raven who was looking so innocent and glared at the lawyer that was holding up a file in his hand and without a doubt, he knew the file to be the divorce itself.
“What’s happening here? Can you guys tell me what’s happening and why you’ve called me here?” Raven chose not to talk to him. She could only sign the divorce paper and give it to him to sign
“If you’re smart enough, you should probably understand what makes you happy but I never expected that from a dumb person like you”.
“Please you’all should calm down and let’s settle this silently. “Stefan Maxwell, Raven Black Said she wants to divorce you and I’m sure you’ve already agreed based on it”. The lawyers Said as Stefan smiled. “where’s all the commotion coming from ? SHe should have told me all this the moment I stepped my foot in This house so that I wouldn’t waste my time”. Stefan uttered and went to collect the divorce file from the lawyer.
His actions leave everybody to be stunned including Richard who had never thought he would agree to the divorce but they guess he has other plans. After all he has sugar Mama that do take care of him whereas all he needed to do was to f**k and pleasure them in the way they like. At this moment, Raven wished the ground could just open up and swallow her. She thought Stefan wouldn’t agree to sign the divorce paper but she guessed wrong. He was just using her all those whiles. After waiting for him to sign the paper, she approached him with a slap on his face. Her family were right about him.
Stefan holds his face angrily as he stares at Raven, trying to hold himself from slapping her back. “this was what you’ve always wanted right? You marry me just to inherit the Black family property? Your plan was to remove me as the heir to the Black group company and take it”. Raven pouted out with a sobbing face.
“No, that wasn’t my intention.. why don’t you understand me Raven. You’re getting everything wrong”. Stefan roared at her on seeing where her Angers were coming from. “Don’t you give me any fucking explanation because I don’t need it. Just go get your clothes and get the fuck out of this house”.
