Violet clumsily broke the framed photo of them that she kept in his office, and he used the first card to shield Violet
The wooden box crashed to the floor, its contents spilling out across the floor
Louis stored blankly, realizing that Cersel hadn’t chested him. All one hundred forgiveness cards truly had been used up||
He recalled Cersein strange question from the night before–the one he’d found odd but he never got a chance to ask about.[
“Are you sure you want to use the most important card for something so trivial?–
So the “most important she’d mentioned was the final forgiveness card
From the corner of his eye, he glimpsed something white. He stepped over the scattered fragments to reach for it, yet hesitated to read what was written.]
Even now, his heart already guessed what it might be
But avoidance would change nothing. Finally, he lowered his head to read the paper, and the words “Divorce Agreement” came clearly into view.||
Cersei truly didn’t want him anymore.]
Louis stared at the paper, motionless for a long time

So why had he always sided with Violet, and joined her accusations that Cersel was overreacting?]

Why had she known exactly how many cards were left, yet never corrected him when the realized he had miscounted?]
If he had known.[
If he had known only a few cards remained, he would never have acted this way, never so casually used up the final ones
“Louis? Louis? What’s wrong?
