Anna sneered, “Wow. All men are the same; you’ll never know how to appreciate what you have. The harder it is to get your hands on something, the better you think it is, don’t you? If Olivia really liked you, do you think she could have given birth to someone else’s child? Do you think she would have broken up with you that easily? She’s just trying to drive us apart now. Did she say that she still thinks about you after all these years? If it weren’t for me, you two could have been together by now? I’m telling you. She just can’t wait for you to divorce me, then stab you in the back!”
Hugo shot her a displeased look. “Don’t try to predict her actions with that filthy mind of yours. She’s not as evil as you!”
After he said that, he got up and went straight into the room.
Anna clenched her jaw in resentment. “I’m no good anymore, huh? Your Olivia is great. She’s the best! Go to her then. See if she still wants you.”
She stared at the shut door and started to howl with laughter.
The door to the room opened once again. Hugo walked out with a quilt in his arms and turned into the guest room.
With a bang, the door slammed shut.
“Hugo Gray!”
She stood there in astonishment with her finger pointed at him but was at a loss for words.
She realized that there were no words that could describe the fury she was feeling.
Suddenly, her lips curled up into a contemptuous smile. So what if Olivia is great? Can they still be together? Of course not! He only has me! Even in death, he will die with me!
She sat down on the sofa with a blank look on her face and wiped her tears away. Their marriage could not be broken off that easily.
…
The next day, North announced to Olivia that he wanted to go to school. Stunned, she asked, “Does your leg not hurt anymore?”
Without batting an eye, he said, “I think I got better after eating the apple Uncle Eugene peeled for me.”
She was speechless.
She did not know why North liked Eugene that much.
After she sent him to school, she came back and went straight to 4S Shop.
Nathan’s flight was at three in the afternoon. If everything went smoothly, she should have enough time to buy a car!
When she entered, her eyes swept over the area once, then she strode toward a red Ferrari.
Because she looked like someone who could afford it, a young chap quickly approached her. After he greeted her politely, he started to introduce the performance of the car to her.
She had circled the car twice as she was listening.
The body of the Ferrari was wedge-shaped with a low front and a high end. It gave off an intimidating look which she really liked.
The front tires, car door, and back tires were all different, but they fit together holistically. The lines on the car were sleek.
Satisfied, she nodded her head. “This one!”
Just then, a man approached the same car with a woman in his arms.
The man was wearing a royal blue shirt and a pair of black suit trousers. He had average looks and seemed like a disreputable person.
The woman in his arms was fair-skinned with big eyes and a small mouth. Her long brown hair contrasted with her palm-sized face. She embodied society’s standards of a young beautiful lady.
The woman looked up and asked, “What do you think of this one, Ben? Red means joy. We can drive it after we get married.”
He boasted, “It’s up to you!”
Instead of squealing, she circled the car to have a look. “I like it. This one it is!”
The man gave the salesperson his card at the speed of light. “We’ll take this one!”
The salesperson was put in a tight spot. He looked at Olivia and asked, “Excuse me, Miss; are you sure you want this?”
Olivia nodded and handed her card over as well. “Yes! I’ll pay now!”
The salesperson made his way over and explained carefully, “Sir, that lady over there came and looked at this car before you. We will have to make the deal with her first. If it’s possible, please wait for a bit and we will have someone bring over another car.”
Ben frowned. “How long?”
