Chapter 131 The Last Tenderness Before Parting Ways (1)

“Do you really want a divorce?” Nicholas stared at Nancy and asked, struggling to get the words out.

“Yes.”

Nancy’s reply was brief, but Nicholas could see the determination in her eyes. There was no trace of

hesitation.

He was in agony.

No words could describe the reluctance he felt, but did it even matter?

He had no right to keep her by his side.

“I’ll agree to the divorce on one condition.”

“What is it?”

“When you’ve recovered, come with me on a trip to Grandpa and Grandma’s hometown.”

Nancy nodded. “Alright. I’ll do it.”

In the following days, Nancy stayed home to recover. Nicholas hired several professionals to take care of her. One was in charge of her rehabilitation process, while another was a nutritionist who oversaw their daily meals. Peggy prepared the food based on the nutritionist’s diet plans.

Under such professional guidance, Nancy recovered quite quickly. Her cheeks started looking rosy again.

As for the baby, she and Nicholas seemed to be on the same page. Neither of them mentioned the baby again.

Everyone knew that it was a sensitive topic for both of them. Even the slightest mention would cause excruciating pain.

No one dared to bring it up.

When it came to certain wounds, it didn’t matter because even if they festered deep within one’s heart, one would still lack the courage to revisit them.

On the fifth day of her recovery, Nancy received a call from Evelyn Yancy.
