Chapter 4
Haughed at myself self–deprecatingly.
I used to think that he was just a passing fancy, seeking Emilee’s youth and beauty. But now it seems that he was serious.
In the afternoon, while I was drinking coffee, my lawyer friend called.
He said that the divorce agreement had already been prepared for me and sent to my email, asking me to take a look and see if there was anything else that needed to be added.
“It’s very complete, thank you.”
I quickly glanced and said, “When I return to Lightvale, I will treat you to a meal.”
The laughter of Oscar Archer came from across the street.
Well
then I can thank Ms. Campbell in advance.”
“Alicia, I wish you a happy divorce and an early return.”
My heart warmed. Oscar was my friend since childhood, and six years ago when I decided to stay in Strongford for love, he was the first to frown and disagree.
He said, “Although Bentley is a bit handsome, he is not a suitable match for you. Just have some fun. with him, but don’t be foolish enough to marry him!”
He said, “Look at that kid’s face, he’s not the type to stick with one person forever, don’t be foolish!”
But how can a woman who has fallen in love be rational?
I thought all men in the world would cheat, except for my Bentley.
Although he was a bit poor, he was diligent and made progress.
As long as he was given a little assistance, he could manage the company very well.
Moreover, the passionate look in his eyes when he confessed his feelings to me under the cherry blossom tree is something I will never forget.
But now, thinking back, I have gradually forgotten what that look was like.
When it comes to Bentley, the first impression that comes to my mind is his impatience.
In order to help Emilee explain and exonerate herself, she repeatedly berated me..
Realizing that something was wrong, I walked toward the floor–to–ceiling window.
It was pouring rain, Bentley’s car did not start, and it remained parked downstairs.
Even if it is very vague.
I still saw clearly, a couple of men and women embracing and kissing inside.
Bentley, I ultimately misjudged you.
Bentley came back that evening.
He didn’t work overtime and arrived home at six o’clock. His coat was already wet, so he casually threw it into the washing machine as soon as he entered the house.
He looked at me, who was painting in the study, with a smile on his lips, and slowly approached me from behind, wanting to kiss me.
I avoided it again.
“Alicia, why have you been avoiding me these past few days?” he said, then he looked at my belly, “Has the baby been behaving well these days? I haven’t seen you experiencing morning sickness.”
Of course, there was no morning sickness.
Because of the baby, it was gone a long time ago.
I sneered and immediately turned my head to see the bright red marks on Bentley’s neck, instantly losing all amusement.
Even though he had already washed his coat, he could still smell the strong perfume that the young girl liked.
“You left for a moment, and I felt like throwing up again.” I pretended to have morning sickness on purpose, escaped from the study, and only breathed a sigh of relief after closing the bathroom door.”
Up to this day, it is truly lamentable that Bentley and I have come to this point.
“Alicia, shall I accompany you to the prenatal check–up tomorrow?”
Before going to sleep, Bentley suddenly spoke.
on’t work.
I glanced at the phone he had placed on the coffee table and said lightly, “I’m afraid It won‘ Emilee invited you to experience the newly opened themed rooms for couples tomorrow.”
Bentley’s face changed, and he immediately snatched away the phone.
He angrily tapped on the screen; his face full of anger. Soon, a call came from the other side, and
Emilee’s voice sounded tearful.
“Bentley, I was wrong, please don’t block me…”
Bentley was very angry. “I have already said, that if you say these nonsensical and inappropriate words again, upsetting my wife, I will fire you!!
After he finished speaking, he kept comforting me.
Emilee got drunk and started talking nonsense.
How could I not understand? It was clearly acting for me to see.
I chuckled lightly, “Bentley, you didn’t have to do this.”
“We…”
Before the three words “Let’s get divorced” were spoken, Emilee sent another video.
+
She was standing in the rain in the video, her whole body soaked and alluring, while a few malicious men followed behind her.
She cried out, “Bentley, come and save me! They have been following me…”
Bentley’s face immediately changed.
“Alicia, I went
cut for au
I smiled and said, “It’s okay, saving lives is more important. You should go find her first.”
He gave me a grateful look, didn’t even bother to take his coat, and hurriedly ran out.
