So this time, Riley wouldn’t show him any respect.
“Is this some kind of joke?” Adam demanded, embarrassed.
Riley locked eyes with him and said expressionlessly, “No, I’m actually very serious. Please read the terms of the divorce agreement and then sign it as soon as possible. If you refuse to the divorce, I’ll still file for it. I’ll take Luca and move out today.”
