Sweet Divorce

Chapter 37 I Have Time

"Me?" Rita pointed indefinitely to herself again.

Soon she got a nod from the man. Her heart gave a great leap.

He was waiting for her.

Her eyes looked empty. "What’s up?"

"Grandpa wants us to eat at the old house," The man answered truthfully. As the shotgun seat was too small for his long legs, he adjusted his seat.

She knew. He could never come to her without reason.

She seemed to be accustomed to it, and she didn't feel lost.

On the way, Rita remembered things about Sophia Miller that had happened today. She couldn't help casting a glance at the man on her side.

She pretended to ask casually, "When did you leave from F University yesterday?"

"I don’t know." Staring at his phone all the time, Liam replied expressionlessly.

But he seemed to think of something and looked at her, "Any problems?"

"Nothing, nothing. Just asking." The man's rhetorical question proved exactly the conjecture of Rita.

The person who had taught Sophia a lesson for her was not Liam.

'If it was not him, who would be that person?'

'Oliver Roberts?'

No. It was not possible.

Oliver was so famous in school. How could Sophia not know?

Rita became increasingly curious about who the mysterious man was.

Immersed in thought, she did not notice that Liam was staring at her out of the corner of his eyes.

In the sun, Rita with short hair appeared sunny and boyish.

He had never looked so closely at the woman before, but today he settled down to look at her, and realized that she was quite good-looking and even attractive.
