Chapter197
Bethany turned her head away, didn’t want to look at him.
Terrence got up, walked over to her, and with sharp fingers,
grabbed her chin bone, and twisted her face back.
“Since you remember so clearly, I can double check with you.
During the agreement period, did I force you to have sexual
relations?”
Bethany pushed away his hand holding her chin with a wave of
her hand, signing, “What about the fifth one?”
“I almost forgot to tell you, the lawyer made a mistake when
drafting the agreement, the effective date of the agreement is
next month. You can check your agreement.”
Bethany was shocked, her eyes wide open.
She quickly went over to grab her bag, frantically unzipped it,
and took out the receipt and agreement from inside.
It’s October now, the effective date of the agreement was really
the day they signed the contract, but the month was November.
She wasn’t a professional lawyer, when she read the agreement,
she only paid attention to the content of the agreement.
She even believed that Terrence’s lawyer must be very
professional, she never thought there would be a mistake in the
date.
In all***ant, she slumped weakly on the sofa.
If she had
gotten cancer.
A month is no big deal, she can wait.
Life can pass by.
She had no way to delay another month.
She had been diagnosed with cancer for almost half a month,
and she only had a little over five months left.
Keep dragging on, the agreement took effect a month late, wait
for a month for the agreement to be ready to end, then apply for
divorce, with a one–month cooling–off period.
It took her about three months to get the divorce certificate.
By then, she only had two months left.
Bethany sat helplessly, clutching the contract in her hand,
slowly letting it fall.
Chapter197
Terrence frowned disapprovingly, was she really thinking of
leaving him like this?
Wasn’t she making a scene?
No, he didn’t believe it at all.
She was a mute, an orphan, and could only live in such a small
house in the past.
After marrying him, she was on top of the world.
How could she possibly let go of such a life?
Even though they had the seven–year itch, she couldn’t let go of
Emery.
Besides, how could he let her dump him? She’s a mute, what
right does she have to dump him?
“Okay, don’t look so down, the lawyer made a mistake, I already
scolded him. If you want a divorce, there’s no rush in the next
month or two.”
After Terrence finished speaking, he walked up to her.
He used to think Bethany was pretty easy to please.
I just realized, his woman, not as easy to please as he thought.
It doesn’t matter anymore.
He loved challenges the most.
He still didn’t believe, really couldn’t coax her.
He squatted down, grabbed Bethany’s hand. She was a bit out of
control at the moment, expressionless, no struggle or rejection.
He gently held her hands with his fingertips, and his posture
also relaxed a lot.
“If you were angry, I would take you back, bring the lawyer in
front of you, let you scold him personally, scold him however
you want, hmm?”
Bethany looked at Terrence blankly.
His eyes, very deep.
Like a whirlpool, if you focus on someone, you will appear very
affectionate.
Just one second is enough to make someone fall.
But she was so angry.
How can there be such a man?
One moment angry, the next moment gentle as water.
Fake can’t be fake anymore.
She couldn’t recognize it, and she was lost for a whole seven
years.
If she could, she really wanted to scream out loud and ask him,
how did he manage to look so genuine.
What made her go see the lawyer in person? Who is he, Terrence? He’s a big shot, with projects ranging from millions to billions. Are his legal team, his lawyers, all vegetarians?
How could you make such a basic mistake?
Suddenly, she broke free from his hand, waving her fingertips
angrily, “Terrence, why did you lie to me? Would your lawyer
dare to make such a mistake without your permission? I just
wanted a divorce, why can’t you fulfill such a small wish for
me?”
She was really angry, her chest was filled with rage, so her
gestures were a bit messy, and she would pause occasionally.
She continued with gestures, “I’ve been married to you for seven
years. In these seven years, I’ve never asked you for anything.
Today, I’m asking you to please let me go, considering all the
y ro
for the past seven years.
Can you do that?”
In the end, her gestures were slow, like pleading when speaking.
