What is the ruling for the utterance 'You are divorced two and two except one'?

Book of Divorce
Primary text
There is a possibility that the exception in 'You are divorced two and two except one' is valid because the speaker has excepted one from a total of three, assuming the initial statement implies three. There is also a possibility that it is invalid. If the exception refers to the fourth unit mentioned, three units would remain after it. If it refers to the remaining one from the initial two, it implies excepting the entirety of that part.
