C68 Sign the Divorce Agreement.
In the living room.
Lydia had left, and the atmosphere in the room had already turned cold.
Everyone in the room was so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Especially...
Viola!
She knew how important Maria was to Reece.
She knew how miserable her life had been after she had taken the blame. She was so terrified that her nerves were all tensed up.
At this moment, the man was sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
He leaned lazily on the sofa, his long and narrow black eyes sweeping across the crowd and landing on Viola. His eyes suddenly narrowed.
Coincidentally, Viola raised her head and looked over.
When their thoughts met, the coldness in the man's eyes made her feel suffocated. Then, her legs went soft and she fell to the ground. "Reece, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
"So noisy."
The man frowned, his eyes filled with impatience.
He glanced at Viola, who was on the ground, and quickly shut his mouth. His two fingers tapped on the armrest of the sofa.
Tap!
Tap tap!
The more the man did not speak, the more terrified Viola became. Her entire back was drenched in cold sweat.
Suddenly, the man's fingers stopped!
"Viola, you really knew how to scheme back then! You even plotted against me!" The man reached out his hand and pinched Viola's chin, his eyes filled with ice.
"You have to pay the price for scheming against me!"
The strength in the man's hand suddenly increased. Viola immediately felt a pain in her heart. At that moment, she seemed to hear the sound of her jaw breaking.
It was obvious how angry the man was!
She cried and begged, "Reece, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was too young and ignorant. Please spare my life!"
She didn't want to die. She really didn't want to die!
"Don't worry, I won't let you die!" Because death wasn't enough to calm his anger, Reece shook him off coldly. "You deserve to die!"
He wanted her to live a life worse than death!
With a slap, Viola fell to the ground once again.
She didn't know whether it was because of the pain of the fall or because of the man's words, but her face suddenly turned pale.
"Loran, send the guests off!"
Reece stood up and gave Loran a cold look.
Loran immediately understood what she meant. He waved at the few servants beside him and led them to surround Viola.
Immediately, Viola started to tremble in fear.
She anxiously grabbed Blain's leg and cried out for help, "Dad, I... I'm scared. Dad, I'm your only daughter. You can't leave me alone!"
Although Blain was a coward, he still loved Viola dearly.
Especially when so many people surrounded him, his fatherly love was aroused. He protected Viola behind him and turned to look at Reece on the sofa. "Reece, Lydia knows that she was wrong. Just let her go!"
"..."
'In your dreams!'
Blain's eyes narrowed coldly, "Don't let me hear you plead for her again, or else... I don't mind changing the ownership of the Ellis Group!"
Blain was stunned by the man's cold gaze.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The owner of the Ellis Group had changed?
This... this...
He glanced at Viola, his eyes filled with hesitation.
As if noticing his wavering, Viola suddenly tightened her grip on his hand. "Dad, don't, don't ignore me."
"Viola, I..."
"Blain, come home with me!"
Janie interrupted Blain's words coldly and smashed her walking stick heavily on the ground.
Blain shuddered, then closed his eyes and pushed Violet away with all his might. "Viola, I can't... I can't be the sinner of the Ellis family."
Blain pushed Viola away and pulled Theresa away with him.
Only Viola was left to deal with the situation with Reece.
After being abandoned by the Ellis family, Viola finally experienced the despair of being chased out by the Ellis family.
Before she could recover from her despair, Loran had already carried her away.
"You, what are you doing?" Viola shouted in fear, but no one responded. Instead, they carried her out of the room and threw her out heavily.
With a loud thud, Viola fell more than a meter away.
When she stopped, her face, arms, and hands were covered in scratches.
Loran glanced coldly at Viola and turned around to walk back to the living room.
"Sixth Bro, she was thrown out."
"Yes." The man nodded and forced his gaze away from a certain room on the second floor.
He fiddled with the phone in his hand for a while, and then Loran received a few videos on his phone.
Looking at the videos, Loran raised his head in confusion and looked at the cold man on the sofa. "Brother Six, what is this?"
"Go …"
After hearing what Reece had to say, Loran's eyes narrowed. "Alright, I'll take care of this."
"There's no time to lose. I'll do it right away!" Loran got up and was about to leave because he couldn't wait to see the results.
"Wait a minute!" Say something to the people of the Ellis family for me!" When he mentioned the people of the Ellis family, the man's deep eyes turned cold. "Those who have schemed against me, Reece, are not worthy of the surname 'Li'!"
Loran was shocked. "!!!"
Brother Six was talking about those who had schemed against Reece!
Those who had schemed against his woman!
Not his own people!
Brother Six was protecting his wife!
Loran's mouth twitched when he was suddenly stuffed with dog food.
Sixth Brother, didn't we agree that we wouldn't fall in love with her?
What are you doing?
I … I'm so tired and bald!
At this moment, on the second floor.
On the balcony, Lydia was watching the people of the Ellis family leave with cold eyes.
She smiled coldly. "The people of the Ellis family are really unchanging!"
In her previous life, they had been extremely cold to her.
In this life, it was the same for Viola!
Heh!
It was indeed 'fair'.
She smiled sarcastically and walked back to the bed.
After the people from the Ellis family left, she waited for Reece to come to find her.
However, from dawn to dusk, the man never came to find her.
Knock, knock, knock.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, she heard someone knocking on the door.
Her gray eyes lit up!
He finally came!
She got up and quickly walked over to open the door.
"Reece, we..."
"Young Mistress, Mr. Tillman asked me to call you for dinner." Ora looked at her rushing over and smiled.
Lydia looked at Ora, who was standing outside the door. Her eyes were slightly disappointed for a second, but she quickly hid the divorce agreement in her hand behind her back and forced a smile. "Oh, okay."
Lydia threw the divorce agreement on the table and followed Ora downstairs.
In the dining room.
Lydia frowned as she looked at the only empty chair beside Reece.
Where were the other chairs?
Why were they gone?
"Young Mistress, this is the stewed pork slice you love to eat." At this moment, Ora smiled and brought the dish in front of her. "Quickly taste it."
"Yes, okay." Lydia smiled and nodded as she sat down beside Reece.
She picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dish, but she didn't realize that the man's tense lips had melted because he glanced at her.
As Lydia lowered her head to eat, she suddenly picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her bowl.
Looking at the pair of chopsticks, Lydia suddenly turned to look at the man beside her.
"... Why? Don't you like eating?" The man looked at her and said indifferently.
Lydia stared at the awkward Reece, her eyes filled with shock.
Reece was helping her?
Was she hallucinating?
She lowered her head and stared at the meat in the bowl. She blinked, but the meat was still in the bowl.
It didn't disappear.
It was still there!
It wasn't an illusion. Everything was real.
However, there was nothing to be surprised about.
After the truth was revealed, this man felt guilty towards her. That was probably why he acted so strangely.
After being stunned for a few seconds, she regained her calm.
"...Thank you, thank you." Lydia smiled and continued to eat, but she did not touch that piece of meat.
Naturally, Reece also saw that she didn't eat the meat he had picked up.
His gaze lowered, and his eyes became dim.
At the dining table, the two of them ate with their own thoughts.
After eating for a while, Ora brought out another fish.
"Ms. Liu, what day is it today? Why are there so many dishes?" She looked at the table full of chicken, duck, and fish and could not help but feel curious.
Ora returned happily, "Congratulations, Young Madam, for finally washing away your grievances. The mountain between you and Mr. Tillman has finally been chiseled open!"
Hearing this, the smile on her face stiffened.
Yes, the mountain had indeed been chiseled open.
However, there was something between them that needed to be solved.
After dinner, she had to bring up the divorce with the man.
She couldn't afford to stay by his side any longer. It was not good for her.
Although she thought that way, she didn't say it out loud because of the nagging of the woman.
With a gentle smile, she said, "Thank you, Mama."
"Young Mistress is too polite. I am happy as long as I see the two of you well." Ora smiled and continued to walk to the kitchen. The two people in the dining room looked at each other and lowered their heads in silence.
They weren't very happy.
After dinner.
Reece stood up and left his seat.
Lydia also hurriedly pushed the bowl of rice away and followed him.
When she returned to her room, she locked the door and handed the divorce agreement to the man. "The truth is out. I am innocent now. You can sign it now, right?"
"Is this what you wanted to talk about?" Reece looked at the divorce agreement in front of him with an ugly expression.
"Yes." At this moment, the woman handed a carbon pen to him. "Now that the truth is out, I think we should settle this matter."
He felt very uncomfortable when he thought about how determined she was.
It was obvious that she really didn't love him anymore.
She really didn't love him anymore...
"Reece?"
Perhaps it was because he had been distracted for too long, but she called out his name.
He turned around and glanced at the divorce agreement. The divorce agreement was very simple, and it stated that if Ava didn't want anything, she could divorce him.
She just wanted to leave.
But now, it seemed that he didn't have any reason to refuse her.
Hmm, it seemed that he didn't have any.
"I can sign the divorce agreement, but..."
The man suddenly stopped.
Lydia was confused and asked, "But what?"
"I have a condition."
A condition?
Lydia frowned, her eyes filled with shock. Now that the truth was out, why did this man become more hesitant?
Why did he have a condition?
She was confused about the man's cold face. "What condition?"
