"Or incredibly stupid, but I don't have a problem with that .  I mean I wish I stopped my ability to have children years ago, but it's alright .  I think given our end goal, being barren is a much lighter burden when compared with alternatives . "

Henry touched her hands so she would look into his eyes .  "I think it's really brave of you to volunteer yourself to go do something for me when you don't have to .  Being interrogated in a courtroom can be incredibly intense . I will try to make sure it doesn't come down to that . "

"I don't really mind .  I mean my racing career is practically over .  They would never take me back . Being on the stand about my health issues won't be something I should have to worry about too much .  I doubt I have any fans I need . " Ellie turned to him and narrowed her eyes . "If I do say I can't have kids, wouldn't they also ask about your s.e.xual history as well?"

"What s.e.xual history?" Henry said with a slow awkward smile .  He knew that everywhere he went it was splashed on tabloids .  Henry was friends with plenty of incredibly successful models and actresses .  But nothing more . He knew that it was thought that business moguls were playboys, but he had always wanted a simple life .  Too many women, from what he'd seen from his colleagues had always spelled doom in multiple avenues . He didn't want to be haunted by any problems in the form of a lady .  He had thought of it, but the repercussions were just too fierce .  

"I mean I don't mind . " Ellie couldn't look at him while she said this .

"I haven't touched anyone since I've met you and signed those marriage papers . "

Ellie couldn't help the blush that had started to heat up her cheeks as she said, "Then that settles it .  An annulment it is . I hope that it will be possible sooner than later . "

Henry nodded in concordance .  He refilled Ellie's cup as he searched for a new topic .  He looked down at the papers, "You never did tell me how you got to know legal topics so well . "

"No I did, but I can say it again .  I studied pre-law at NYU the same college where Nolan is now .  I don't know, I could never commit myself to premed or business so I thought it was a nice avenue that all my interests could be explored in .  I really enjoyed my cla.s.ses when I was taking them . Now that I have a bit more freed up time, maybe I'll go back to school . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting .

Henry continued, "Why didn't you do both? You could have had racing and a law practice hand in hand . "

Ellie smiled sheepishly .  "I mean have you spent time with lawyers .  It's literally office work and meetings twenty four seven .  I just can't take something so boring . That's why I signed a pro contract .  I couldn't take reading a backpack full of boring books in the library all day .  I wanted to be outside . I wanted to feel the rush of the breeze . "
