WHAT IF???

Chapter 71: The Annulment

As Mon wrapped up the team meeting, her phone chimed with a text from Sam. Her heart skipped a beat as she read Sam's message, urging her to check her email for the forwarded annulment result. A wave of nervousness washed over her, uncertainty clouding her thoughts as she hesitated to open the email.

Yha, Noi, Chin, and Mhee exchanged concerned glances, noticing Mon's unease. "Are you okay, Mon?" Yha asked gently, her voice laced with concern.

Mon hesitated for a moment, her mind consumed by thoughts of Sam's forwarded email. "I'm just feeling a bit anxious," she admitted, her voice tinged with nervousness. "Sam forwarded the annulment result to me,"

Taking a deep breath to steady her nerves, Mon hesitated for a moment before making a decision. "Should I check it now?" she asked, her voice tinged with uncertainty.

Her friends nodded in unison, their expressions filled with understanding and empathy. "You've got this, Mon," Yha reassured her, her tone gentle yet encouraging. "We're all here for you."

As Mon clicked open the email sent by Sam, her heart raced with anticipation, her friends gathered around her, their eyes glued to the screen as they eagerly awaited the news. With bated breath, they read through the contents together, their voices rising with excitement as they reached the conclusion.

"We did it!" Mon exclaimed, her voice filled with joy as she read the words confirming Sam's legal annulment. "Sam is finally free!"

Yha, Noi, Chin, and Mhee erupted into cheers, their faces breaking into wide smiles as they celebrated the long-awaited news. "Congratulations, Mon!" they exclaimed, their voices echoing with genuine happiness for their friend.

Tears of relief and joy welled up in Mon's eyes as she hugged each of her friends tightly, feeling overwhelmed with gratitude for their unwavering support. "Thank you, everyone," she whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "This means everything to me."

Sam couldn't help but grin as she entered the room, her eyes sparkling with mischief as she caught sight of Mon's friends gathered around her. "What's this? Why are you all crowding around my future wife?" she teased, her tone playful as she joined in on the lighthearted banter.

"We're just happy for Mon!" Yha chimed in, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "After all those office rumors, it's finally come true!"

Sam couldn't resist the opportunity to play along, shooting back with a teasing retort of her own. "Well, then, maybe you should spread the rumor that I left my husband to be with my high school sweetheart and my one true love," she quipped, earning a round of laughter from the group.

Mhee grinned and chimed in, "I agree with Sam! We should tell everyone, so no one dares to court Mon."

Sam raised her eyebrows playfully. "Is that right?"

Chin nodded, laughing. "Honestly, Sam, no one dares to flirt with Mon. Everyone assumed you two had something going on since the start."

Mon blushed, glancing at Sam. "Is that so?"

Yha added with a wink, "Oh, absolutely! The way you two look at each other, it's always been pretty obvious."

Sam wrapped an arm around Mon, pulling her close. "Good. Because I don't want anyone else getting any ideas."

Mon's friends chuckled, happy to see the couple so content and confident in their love. The atmosphere was filled with joy and celebration, as everyone basked in the happiness of Sam and Mon finally being able to be together freely.

Mon clapped her hands, signaling her friends to return to their tasks. "Alright, everyone, back to work! We've got a lot to do."
