Let's Get Married

Chapter 5 Arranged Marriage

Rex also doesn't expect to meet Lily here.

The front desk staff informs Lily, “Mrs Montgomery, this is Mr. Smith.”

Mr. Smith, wearing a pair of eyeglasses and in his thirties, looks a little fat. “Hello, Mrs Montgomery. Let's go in for an interview.”

Lily would like to say no, but it is too late now.

She nods almost stiffly.

Rex suddenly says, “Your office will be used by the seminar group.”

Maybe Mr. Smith doesn't see anything strange, but Lily understand what it means. Rex is doing this on purpose.

A group of three people walk towards the office and pass the office area all the way. Lily sees everyone addressing him as Mr. Rex. He is not only works here, but also the boss of the law firm. He is a successful man in business and politics who nobody dare offend.

Sitting in the chair, Lily feels her butt is going to burn. Her whole body is stiff.

“Mrs, I hear that you want to fight a divorce lawsuit. Is it convenient to tell me about you and your husband? Mr. Smith wants to get down to it.

Lily takes a peek at Rex and sees he is doing some work. She whispers, “I have been married for a year. Yesterday, I caught him in bed with my best friend. My mother-in-law also knows about it. I was the only one in the dark. Now I want to divorce. They won't accept it.”

“Do you have children?”

“No.” Lily bites her lips in embarrassment, pauses and says, “We never had a sexual relationship.”

Mr. Smith pushes the glasses on his face and hides the surprise look behind them.

“Now, divorce will be fairly straightforward, but I need to know what you want for it.”

“I want my husband to lose his reputation and get what is mine,” Lily says.

Mr. Smith nods and asks a key question. “Do you have any evidence of your husband's infidelity”

Lily asks, “Evidence?”

“Such as pictures, video, social media, or anything that can prove that your husband did cheat.”

“I don't.”

“First of all, we need some hard evidence. Otherwise, it's heresy. We need reliable proof.”

Mr. Smith's words put Lily into shock. She realizes that there is no point in continuing and gets up to leave. When she is about to leave the office, Rex, who has not spoken at all, suddenly says, “Stay here, Mrs, I want to talk with you.”

Smith is stunned for a moment, and stands up to leave, pretending
