Sweet Divorce

"We will go through the divorce formalities in a year." Liam said slowly. Rita was obviously stunned.

‘What? One year later? How can this work!’

She worked hard to find evidence, just for divorce and get rid of the predicament!

Now he wanted her to wait. She couldn't do it!

Although she resisted in her mind, she still asked rationally, "Why?"

"Grandfather's health is very bad recently. The doctor said that if he takes good care of it, he can only live one year. So..." Liam paused, and looked at Rita.

In the prior life, Grandpa Jim was nice to her. Naturally, she also regarded him as her own grandfather.

Therefore, when Liam mentioned these, she was caught as if a snake was hit where it hurt!

All of a sudden, her refusal changed abruptly. "So, you want me to divorce you first, and play a loving couple in front of my grandfather, so that Grandpa Jim can pass away without any worry?"

"Yes." Liam nodded and added, "As long as you promise, when we divorce in a year, I will divide 30% of my property to you as compensation."

"Grandpa Jim treats me well. It's my duty to repay him. So, there's no need to compensate me." She looked up at Liam. "Except for these, anything else?"

"... No." Liam shook his head.

"Then, sign it." Rita once again brought things back on track.

Liam looked at her delicate face and felt slightly. He pinched the divorce agreement hard unconsciously.

He picked up the carbon pen. After a long pause, he signed his name.

When she got the divorce agreement, Rita smiled brightly and said, "Thank you."

‘Thank you?’ These two words hurt him. He clenched hands once again. His heart was full of self mockery.

‘How could he match these two words. He didn't deserve it.

He had been looking forward to divorce. But today as he signed the agreement, he was not as happy as he imagined, but a little heavy-hearted.

After negotiation, Rita put away the divorce agreement, and limped to her bed on the floor.

"Rita!" All of a sudden, Liam’s low voice came behind her. She stopped and looked at him in doubt. "Well?"

"You can sleep on bed in the future."

He changed their quilt and then slept on the floor.

Seeing this, Rita was obviously stunned.

But soon, she was indifferent again.

They slept with their backs to each other. Soon Rita fell asleep, while Liam lost sleep again on the ground.

He looked at the thin Rita on the bed with mixing feelings.
