“You’re the one with a fever. If you weren’t worried. I could have taken you shopping now.”
He looked at me and smiled gently. I almost fell into his gentleness again. I quickly lowered my head and pretended to eat. food to avoid his gaze.
I didn’t believe that Eric really liked me, but I liked his gentleness. It was a kind of poison that could make you involuntarily fall into it and be unable to extricate yourself.
Isabella said that Eric would be terrible when she was heartless. She didn’t want to see me covered in wounds in the end. I thought that if I werestill eighteen years old, I would definitely be desperate to have a love that I liked with Eric. But now I was already twenty–eight. My youth was gone, and my beauty was getting older. I didn’t have the youth that I could use, nor did I want to try the taste of heartache again.
But I really like his gentleness. I like to see him smile at me. I like to see him being considerate to me. I like his love for me…
It was only later that I found out that my current worries were only the tip of the iceberg. Some things were already doomed to never change. The entanglement between me and Eric was not only because I wanted him to help me take revenge on Carson. We were simply a bad relationship.
As Eric said, I did not have to worry about the divorce at all. The next afternoon, Carson actually called my home phone.
Carson’s voice sounded very hoarse and tired. “Lilian, you are so cruel! Are you going to force me to death for the divorce?”
“You can choose,” I replied coldly.
“Alright, since you don’t care about the relationship between husband and wife, I’ll grant your wish. However, the mountains don’t turn and the rivers turn. Lilian, one day, you will definitely come crying to beg me!”
This was a declaration from a trapped beast, indicating that Carson was already at the end of his rope. I didn’t care.
Sure enough, my dad came back at night and told me about the progress of the divorce. Carson agreed to divorce. Now, he was only negotiating about the issue of raising the child and property distribution. Carson had also earned a lot over the years. The preliminary estimation was that I could get a considerable amount of money.
“I want Niu Niu’s custody,” I told my dad.
“Got it. I’ll get Lawyer Zhang to do it.” My dad agreed.
I was worried about her for many days and finally felt relieved. I slept especially well tonight.
The next day, Carson strongly requested to meet me. I accompanied Lawyer Zhang and two bodyguards to meet Carson.
After not seeing Carson for two days, he had become a completely different person. His face was full of beard and his eyes were dispirited as he sat on the sofa. However, when he saw me come in, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
I deliberately sat a distance away from him. Carson looked at Lawyer Zhang. “I want to speak to Lilian alone. Can you leave?”
“No, Mr. Mu told me not to leave Miss Lilian!” Lawyer Zhang replied.
“Lilian, if you don’t let him avoid me, I won’t hand over the custody of the child to you!” Carson turned to threaten me.
I didn’t want to cause trouble, so I asked Lawyer Zhang to wait outside. After Lawyer Zhang left, Carson looked at me and
sneered. “Lilian, you seem to be doing very well?”
