Chapter216
Fortunately, he saw with his own eyes that it was Bethany who
knocked her down and damaged the necklace, she just realized
it, Terrence’s suppressed anger.
Maybe out of gentlemanly behavior, he didn’t actually slap
Bethany.
She knew his personality, he couldn’t lay a hand on a woman.
Bethany came back to the small apartment, pushed the door
open, and Kyson was inside.
When he saw Bethany, he rushed up to her, grabbed her
shoulders nervously, and asked, “Beth, what happened? Why is
there blood on the ground?”
In the morning, Kyson came to Bethany’s house,
Called and it was off.
Knocked on the door but no one answered.
He tried to turn the doorknob, but the door wasn’t locked.
He came in and saw the bloodstains on the floor had turned
Chapter216
black.
He searched the whole house but didn’t see Bethany. Just as he
came out of the bedroom, Bethany came back.
Bethany took out her phone, only to find it dead. She then took
out a piece of paper from her bag and wrote down a line: “I’m
fine, don’t worry about me. The blood on the ground is from a
stray dog I helped yesterday.”
She didn’t plan to tell anyone about the cancer.
She didn’t want anyone’s pity, and she didn’t want anyone to
worry about her.
I didn’t want Terrence and Emery to know.
If she couldn’t divorce, that was her last way to leave the father
and son.
Kyson breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s good, you scared me.” Kyson suddenly added, “Why is
your face so pale?”
“I didn’t sleep well last night.”
She kept writing on sticky notes.
Actually, communicating with people who don’t understand
sign language is very inconvenient for Bethany, it wastes a lot
of time for communication.
The voice–activated necklace Julio gave her was a great tool for
ber, who still couldn’t speak now.
“If you didn’t rest well you rest in the morning. I’ll call the
lawyer to go back first and come in the afternoon.”
Bethany quickly wrote. “No need just come in the morning. I
can take a nap at noon. I have other things to do in the
afternoon”
It seems like Bethany really wanted a divorce.
Bethany asked Kyson to sit down, and she went to pour him a
glass of water.
She found the charger and plugged in her phone to charge.
Just sat down, there was a knock on the door.
think it’s the lawyer, I’ll go open the door.“”
Kyson took the initiative to open the door.
However, the person standing at the door was Julio. Julio saw a
strange man in Bethany’s apartment, and his face immediately
Chapter216
turned cold. Even his elegant gold–rimmed glasses couldn’t hide
the malice emanating from him.
“Who are you? Why are you in Dummy’s house?r
Bethany heard Julio’s voice and quickly walked out.
Kyson looked at the nervous man in front of him, raised an eyebrow, before he could say anything, Bethany came over and
gestured to Julio, “He’s my friend.”
“You scared me! I thought your house got robbed.”
Kyson didn’t expect that the man in front of him could
understand sign language.
At that time, Vincent Olsen, the Legal Director of The Duarte
Group, also came over.
“Hello, Mr. Duarte.”
“Vincent, come in.”
Kyson invited Vincent in.
Julio heard Kyson call the man who had just arrived a lawyer,
and he couldn’t help but look at Bethany.
Bethany pursed her lips, feeling a bit awkward. She didn’t ask
Chapter216
Julio for help, but had Kyson find a lawyer for her. And, what a
coincidence, they just happened to run into each other.
Julio always said he wasn’t afraid of Terrence, but she still chose
someone else, which definitely made Julio misunderstand,
thinking she didn’t believe in his abilities. This is very
embarrassing for a man.
That day, Presley came to see her in person, explained the
situation in detail. She couldn’t let Julio’s family be torn apart
because of her own issues, and there was no need to involve the
Mendez Group, which had nothing to do with her.
When Bethany looked at Julio, his face looked a bit unhappy.
Luckily, Vincent and Kyson couldn’t understand sign language.
She gestured to Julio, “Wait until I talk to the lawyer, then I’ll
explain to you, okay?”
Julio pursed his lips and nodded.
Kyson didn’t know Julio, but being men, he could tell Julio’s
attitude towards Bethany was different than usual.
Kyson politely asked Bethany, “Who is he?”
Julio saw paper and pen in front of Bethany, knew she needed
to communicate with them by writing, couldn’t bear to see her
Chapter216
so troubled, and said, “I’m her neighbor from back home.”
Oh, neighbor brother, this relationship is really something else.
