"Yours forever, O'Donnell."
After speaking, Mark folded the letter, gently placed it on the chair beside him, and then turned and left the courthouse.
After listening to the entire "apology letter," Scarlett could no longer hold back her tears.
Deep down, she still loved her husband.
She even fantasized that if her husband read the apology letter aloud today, she would forgive him.
Unfortunately, no if...
The woman stood there blankly, her whole demeanor radiating disappointment.
it's all over!
However, when the woman looked up casually, she seemed to unexpectedly see her "husband's" back.
'How can this be! '
Scarlett wiped away her tears in surprise and looked again, only then realizing that the figure was Mark leaving.
'It's just that it's so similar, the way it walks, and the feeling it gives off...'
Sometimes people are like that; they have flashes of inspiration and develop a "sixth sense" that they themselves don't even believe in.
But Scarlett was certain that her feeling was absolutely right.
To capture the moment, the woman hurried to the door and picked up a note from the chair: the handwriting was familiar, but it wasn't her husband's current handwriting.
A daring idea surfaced in the woman's mind again. Driven by impulsiveness, she chased after him out of the courthouse.
Unfortunately, the only person who could give her an answer had already disappeared through the door.
……
On the other side, Mark, who had just left the courthouse, got into his rich friend's luxury car. As the engine roared, the man buried his face between his legs and tears streamed down his face.
It is said that men do not easily shed tears. Not knowing how to comfort his friend, Ned could only speed up the car again, letting the roar of the engine carry away all his unhappiness.
"Are you feeling better?" Half an hour later, Ned parked the car in the open suburbs and casually tossed a bottle of water to the passenger.
Mark had raised his head, though his eyes were still red: "Why did I have to suffer all this..."
A trick of God?
Clearly, Mark was thinking of the "old man" who made him younger; the other party was likely the legendary God.
I had kindly helped the other person that rainy night.
Isn't this repaying kindness with enmity?
If I hadn't been turned into this state by her, would I still have a chance to win my wife back...?
Even though he was mentally prepared, Mark was still filled with regret and sorrow when it came to the actual divorce.
So much so that he attributed the failure of his marriage to the "God" who made him younger.
'His rebellious phase is even worse now!!'
Beside him, Ned, watching Mark's frantic "face-changing" behavior, sighed helplessly and then honestly moved away a little.
After all, teenagers who are going through a rebellious phase in their adolescence are not people that ordinary people can afford to mess with.
Meanwhile, Scarlett drove quickly home from the courthouse, and as soon as she entered the house, she rushed into the storage room and ransacked it.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Knowing that today was the date of his parents' divorce, Alex followed her over, worried about his mother's unusual behavior.
"By the way, do you have any of Mark's handwriting? Find it for me, I need it..." Scarlett seemed to have thought of something and immediately gave her son the task.
"Mark's handwriting?" Alex didn't understand his mother's intention, but thinking that she must be in a bad mood today due to her divorce, he didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only leave in a hurry.
Actually, the boy had been quite troubled over the past week. After the "diary reading incident" last weekend, he discovered that his "big brother" Mark was intentionally distancing himself from him at school.
Alex mistakenly believed that it was because he hadn't stood up for "Big Brother" during that incident that the other party disliked him, and he was sad for quite a while.
He probably never imagined that the reason his "elder brother" was acting this way was because the other party was going through a divorce with his mother.
Alex was simply caught in the crossfire.
Not long after, when Alex returned to the warehouse after finding the precious basketball training plan that "Big Brother" had written for him in his room, he saw his mother holding two pieces of letter paper of different ages, her expression inscrutable.
It was a mixture of surprise, delight, and disbelief...
Yes, Scarlett has two letters in her hands: one is an apology letter Mark just left behind, and the other is a love letter O'Donnell wrote to her when they were young.
To the woman's surprise, the handwriting on the two letters was exactly the same. This discovery seemed to confirm her bold guess.
This explains why Scarlett's expression was so complicated.
"Mom, here's what you wanted." Alex carefully handed over Mark's handwriting.
Then, three sheets of paper with the same handwriting were placed in front of Scarlett one after another.
Suddenly, she seemed to understand many things. But as she said before, how could this be?
Chapter 419 The Existence of God
Finally, after being tormented by the "handwriting" for two days, the woman, in order to confirm her strange suspicions, "chased" all the way to the school.
On this day, Columbia University's gymnasium was filled with students from both Columbia and Harvard, because the semifinals of the college basketball league were about to take place there.
The two teams in the match were Columbia University's basketball team and Harvard University's basketball team, both of whom had advanced to the final four of the college basketball league.
These two equally prestigious schools are fierce competitors in various fields, including basketball.
Such a high-quality competition has also attracted scouts from many professional basketball teams.
In other words, if a player performs exceptionally well in this game, he will have a great chance to advance to the professional basketball arena.
"Mark, keep it up!!!"
As both teams were warming up, a sudden, piercing shout rang out from the stands.
This person was Ned, caught up in the enthusiastic atmosphere of the event, experiencing a bout of adolescent delusions. He had come specifically to cheer Mark on as a friend or relative.
As a second-generation rich kid, Ned still maintained a certain style when he appeared in public. At that moment, he was wearing an expensive suit, and his hair was styled in a slicked-back look.
He smiled and nodded in greeting as he was surrounded by onlookers, appearing every bit the successful man.
Of course, if you look closely, you'll notice that his eyes, though slightly darting, actually betray a guilty conscience.
Just because of the atmosphere, Columbia students also started cheering loudly for their own team after Ned's shouts.
Not to be outdone, the Harvard students also cheered loudly for their team.
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly heated up.
On the contrary, Ned, who initiated the cheers, gradually had his voice drowned out by the cheers of the young students.
Of course, he had already achieved his goal. Mark, who was diligently warming up in his half of the court, had already received his earlier cheers.
At that moment, the spirited 18-year-old boy on the court was holding a basketball in one hand and smiling as he looked this way to express his gratitude.
If we're talking about the players who scouts and students are most interested in today, it has to be Mark, who has both excellent skills and looks, and Scott, the "werewolf" with a unique appearance covered in long hair.
It's worth mentioning that as the Men in Black headquarters' "mysterious events" plan progressed, a lot of mystical knowledge gradually became popular among ordinary people, so everyone slowly got used to the existence of Scott, this "good" werewolf.
After all, fear stems from the unknown.
A "werewolf" star who can control his own nature may be even more popular in some situations.
This is a result of the buzz surrounding it...
Meanwhile, Scott, equally smug in his half of the court, was also secretly observing a certain spot in the stands.
His goddess is there!
However, the beautiful college beauty Lisa was currently fawning over Mike and showed no interest in the basketball game.
This also meant that Scott's previously staged violent dunk was a charade for the blind.
Realizing this, the werewolf Scott lowered his head dejectedly.
Although he admired the school beauty, his keen senses also told him that Mike, who looked incredibly handsome and harmless, was actually very dangerous and someone not to be trifled with.
The law of the jungle! The instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, inherent in animalistic nature, is one of the "werewolf" talents that brings Scott one of his troubles.
Meanwhile, Mark, one of Columbia University's star players, seemed to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye as he smiled and thanked his wealthy friend.
But when he looked closer, he found there was nothing there.
As the game approached, Mark, who once again had the chance to pursue his dream of playing professional basketball, quickly put aside his strange thoughts and devoted himself to warming up.
"Is that super handsome guy over there Mike from your diary?" Scarlett, who was squatting in the crowd with her daughter, noticed Mike surrounded by beautiful women.
This is actually quite easy to discover.
If the most eye-catching people on the basketball court are Columbia's twin stars, then the most eye-catching person on the sidelines must be Mike, who is surrounded by admirers.
Simply because he's handsome!
Scarlett was certain she had never seen anyone so handsome; even movie stars couldn't compare.
“He, he is Mike…” Maggie felt a little nervous when her mother suddenly asked her.
Even the question of why her mother had suddenly pulled her to squat down was forgotten.
"He really is handsome! No wonder he's my daughter, she has great taste~" Scarlett said with a hint of teasing.
She doesn't object to her daughter dating, after all, the other person is in college and is an adult.
It's worth noting that Scarlett herself dated O'Donnell in college and even got pregnant out of wedlock.
Therefore, her educational philosophy is very open-minded.
However, seeing the beautiful women around Mike and the admiring glances from many girls, Scarlett still advised her daughter, "I don't think you have much of a chance. You should prepare yourself mentally."
Although Maggie is young, beautiful and good-looking, it depends on who she is compared to.
Look at the girls surrounding Mike: Caroline, the Channing family's eldest daughter with stunningly long legs; Collins, the former cheerleader with a perfect figure; and Peggy, with her unique temperament and sweet looks.
Even Lisa, the school beauty with a less-than-ideal personality who was showering Mike with attention, was the type of girl with big, wavy hair that men liked.
Therefore, Maggie, who is only slightly prettier than the average girl in terms of appearance, is not very competitive compared to those top beauties.
“I…” Maggie knew her situation, but she just liked it.
Just as the girl was making excuses for her behavior, she noticed that her mother's attention had returned to the basketball court, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, given Maggie's current state, it's easy for her to deceive herself, but extremely difficult to deceive others.
What's more, that person was his own mother.
However, the girl soon noticed that her mother seemed to have been secretly watching Mark on the field, and when she pulled her down to squat, it seemed as if she was afraid of being discovered by Mark.
'What's happening here? ’
Maggie glanced at her mother suspiciously, still unable to understand the situation. Then, the girl, with a "foolish smile" on her face, unconsciously shifted her attention to Mike on the sidelines.
This is what a girl who's infatuated with a guy is like...
Meanwhile, Mike, who was enjoying the personal services of school beauty Lisa on the sidelines, also spared some attention for Mark and Scarlett.
The reason he gave up his precious self-study time to come here today is not simply to watch the basketball game, but because he came for Mark.
Or perhaps they came for the mysterious "God" behind Mark.
From Father James, Mike confirmed with the church that there were records of the real existence of "God".
It's a pity that James never met God.
Therefore, only Mike could personally identify "God" and extract the energy orb from the other party.
Mike knows two stories about miracles: one is about a low-level employee on Wall Street named Fletcher who, due to his job, habitually lies, and whose son made a birthday wish that he could never lie again.
Mike had personally observed the other party and, apart from obtaining a special orb with the attribute of "Blessing and Speaking the Truth," he had not discovered any information about "God."
Another event involving God was Mark on the football field, who was blessed and returned to the age of eighteen.
Mike had a premonition that as long as he kept an eye on Mark, he would eventually be able to expose the "God" behind him.
Chapter 420 The Existence of God (Continued)
Inside Columbia University's indoor basketball arena, as the semifinals of the college basketball league began, the audience's enthusiasm was completely ignited, with shouts of encouragement echoing throughout the stadium.
