Divorce Anxiety Chapter 440

Chapter 440 Polite

Richard said composedly, “Would you go through so much trouble if your intention is to harm her?”

Nonchalantly, Kathleen asked, “So, that’s a yes?”

“You look pretty surprised.” He frowned.

Staring at him coldly, she answered, “Yes.”

“Did Gem agree to this?” Richard muttered.

“She was a nurse with ethics. Do you think she will stop me?”

“Was?” A deep frown formed on the man’s face.

Kathleen merely shrugged.

Then, Richard strode toward the bedroom.

Meanwhile, Kathleen walked to the couch in the living room and sat down.

Standing behind Gemma, Richard questioned, “You resigned?”

She was taken aback by his question.

Nevertheless, she nodded. “Yes.”

“I thought you love your job? Why did you resign out of the blue?” he asked with a frown.

“It’s not necessary for one to continue working even with passion, right? I’m just feeling burned out at work, so I decided to resign,” she answered calmly.

“If it’s because of me, I can resign.”

Pursing her lips, Gemma said, “I don’t need you to pity me, Richard. Do you think I can’t survive after leaving here without a job? Don’t worry; I’m not useless. I can afford to take care of myself.”

Hearing that, Richard froze on the spot.

“I’ve decided to work at Kate’s company. Also, please stay out of my business.”

With that, Gemma zipped up her luggage.

“This is your house key. I’ll put it here.” She placed the key on the bedside table.

As Richard shifted his attention to her luggage, he realized that Gemma’s belongings were not much, although they had been living together for a long time.
