Chapter 1982
In the villa.
Sabine put the ingredients she just bought into the refrigerator and simply prepared some food. Desmond was not at home recently, and Mia and she were the only ones at home. They could not finish all the food if she made too much.
Walking out of the kitchen, Sabine couldn't help asking, "Madam, hasn't Sir come back from his business trip?"
Mia sat on the sofa with her arms around her knees.
Her eyes were unfocused, and she was in a daze. Her whole person was shrouded in gloom.
Hearing Sabine's words, she was stunned and said vaguely, "Yes..."
When Desmond left the villa with his luggage, Sabine didn't know the inside story and always thought that he was on a business trip. Sabine sighed with emotion. "It's been a long time!"
Mia didn't know how to answer. She looked down and said, "Sabine, I'll go back to my room to rest. I'm a little tired. I won't have lunch." Recently, she had been suffering from insomnia at night.
Sabine watched her slender figure go upstairs.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She felt that Mia looked a little tired. She had been in a daze most of the time these days, as if she was lack of sleep and was very sleepy... Sabine thought of something and suddenly became a little excited.
"According to the experience, could it be that she is pregnant?"
When Sabine lowered her head to tidy up the scattered blanket on the sofa, she found a document on the carpet. It seemed that it fell down accidentally when Mia got up.
Sabine didn't dare to cross the line. She just wanted to pick it up and put it on the tea table.
However, when she saw the words on the document, her eyes widened in shock.
Oh no!
Something big had happened!
Sabine was so flustered that she almost tripped over. She quickly hid in the kitchen and made a phone call to report to the Old Master.
...
At noon, the sun was shining brightly.
The owner of a Japanese restaurant was an anime fan, so every room had something to do with a certain anime.
Mia came to keep her appointment with Dan.
The two people closest to her now were Lyle and Dan.
She didn't keep the divorce from the two of them.
One reason why Dan invited her to lunch was that he wanted to comfort her, and the other was that he was about to return to Country M. It was a farewell party.
Halfway through the meal, Mia got up and went to the bathroom.
The hand washing sink was for public use. When she was about to go back after drying her hands, someone stopped her.
"Sister-in-law!"
Hearing that, Mia turned around and saw Shelton coming out from the other side.
She came to her senses and tried to smile. "Shelton, what a coincidence!"
Shelton scratched his head.
To be honest, he felt a little guilty in the face of Mia.
What he had said in the club before caused a big misunderstanding.
After the incident, he was worried and told Desmond again and again that he wanted to explain it to Mia, but Desmond was very determined and did not allow him to say anything more.
Shelton had no choice.
He couldn't say anything about that and could only say, "Sister-in-law, haven't you gone to see Desmond?"
Mia remained silent.
It wasn't that she didn't want to see, but that Desmond had avoided her.
Shelton told her, "Why don't you go and find him? The divorce between you two has already been known by Old Master Hector, and he is very angry. Yesterday, he called Desmond over and beat him up. No one can stop him! I heard that Desmond is seriously injured!"
Mia was stunned.
Back in the private room, Mia was absent-minded.
Old Master Hector was very kind to her.
In addition to his old friend's entrust, he really loved Mia.
He was kind to her and doted on her. Every time she visited, he would smile happily. Furthermore, he had held on to her hand more than once to guarantee that if Desmond dared
to treat her badly, he would break his legs.
She didn't expect that Old Master Hectr would really do what he said.
She was in a trance.
Not long after she sat down, she stood up again. Biting her lips, she said, "Brother, I may not be able to continue eating with you. I have something to do. I have to find Desmond!"
Dan was stunned. He put down his chopsticks and said, "It's okay. I'll take you there!"
In order to make travel convenient, he got a car after returning home.
Mia was in a hurry to see Desmond and nodded without hesitation.
Dan's car was parked at the parking lot of E.M. Entertainment building.
Dan still had something to tell Mia. So after she got out of the car, he did not leave directly. Instead, he waited by the roadside.
As soon as Mia stepped into the office building, she ran into Desmond, who was walking out with his secretary.
Compared with his usual delicate and flamboyant dress, he looked much more decadent now.
Most of Desmond's clothes were bright-colored, but he was dressed in a brown-black suit today. There was only a white shirt inside and there wasn't much decoration, His curly hair was also scattered on his head.
Obviously, his outstanding face was covered with bruises.
The cheekbones and forehead were red and swollen.
It seemed that Shelton was right. Old Master Hector really hit him hard.
Mia walked up. "Desmond!"
Desmond was taken aback when he saw her. "Why are you here?"
Mia looked at the wound on his face and said with worry, "I heard that Grandpa knows. The wound on your face..."
Desmond raised his hand to touch it.
The pain almost caused him to stop
breathing. However, with a
mischievous smile on his face, he said, "It's alright. He was angry, so he hit me a little hard."
Mia asked worriedly, "Have you gone to the hospital?"
Desmond replied, "There's no need. It's just skin trauma. I've already applied medicine on it."
Simon stared at him without blinking. She pursed her lips slightly, and the concern and worry in her eyes did not seem to be fake.
Desmond's heart was like a lake that rippled by the wind.
For a moment, he wanted to go forward and hug her.
However, a second before his action, Desmond saw Dan standing in front of the car from the corner of his eye through the floor-to-ceiling glass in the
hall.
It was as if a bucket of cold water was pouring down from above his head. The warmth and excitement dissipated.
Desmond retracted his gaze, his voice a little stiff. "Mi, have you read the divorce agreement?"
Mia's throat tightened.
She didn't know how Desmond could say such cruel words after calling her Mi.
Mia clenched her fists and said, "Yes."
Desmond suppressed the pain in his heart and continued, "If there's no problem, sign your name on it. I've already signed it. Once you sign it, let me
know and our marriage will be over."
Mia's eyes were red. She looked up and asked, "Desmond, do you really want to divorce me?"
Desmond was silent for a moment before nodding. "Yes."
Mia was about to be drowned by the overwhelming sadness.
Desmond said, "I'm seeing my clients. I'll be off first."
After that, he walked straight past her with his secretary.
Mia stood where she was.
After a long time, she seemed to react and walked out of the office building stiffly.
Seeing that Dan had not left and was still waiting for her, Mia walked over mechanically.
She rubbed her face hard, held back her tears, and managed to calm down her emotions before returning to the car.
Dan looked at her and handed her the things prepared in the back seat. "Mia, this is for you."
