A year on and standing 2

Recent days, W initiate some conversations with me on different topics and I just reply along. Her attitude was no longer as hostile as previous but I am not taking that as a sign or hope that things are getting better or what. However, I welcome this change as it makes the entire environment better.


Today, She passed the family car to me as I am bringing the kids for vaccination. She just requested me to drop her off work which I did. Before this happened, I also prep myself that she will be bringing up the divorce topic again and indeed she did. Our conversation as below and hope I validated well.

W: So with regards to the house, your intention is to get your relative to market it?

Me: I am fine with anyone as long the price is right

W: But we can't disposed off the house without signing the papers

Me: Why not? Then if have to then we get the papers signed

W: Before we sign the paper, we have to go for mandatory counselling again under the law as we have young kids.

Me: I thought we went for that previously?

W: The validity is only 2 years. If I am free, I will go for it as the attendance of either party will do.

Me: ok

W: How about the schooling for the kids? Are they going to the same school as planned or?

Me: May have to relocate. Subject to where I will be getting the new place.

W: So you will still be engaging your Lawyer?

Me: Yes.

W: Then it will be like me initiating the papers to you and you go through and reply via your Lawyer?

Me: That's right

W: But the terms will be the same as we discussed last time right (3 years ago)? and it will be additional expenses if you engage Lawyer too?.

Me: It's not about the Money.

W: Ok let's change topic

Then she started to bring up topic about investment with me and I just chat with her on that investment topic like a normal friend and the conversation just flow till I dropped her off.

At the same time, her grandmother also passed on yesterday. But she was living in another country and we are unable to attend to the funeral due to the current limitation on travelling. She is not very close with her grandmother too but I also contributed bereavement gift to the family.
