Sweet Divorce

After the negotiation with Liam, Rita came back to live in the Wilson villa.

During the daytime, she went to school while after class, she discussed with Isabelle and Tom about the plan.

This time, she didn’t choose to suppress the public atmosphere, and instead, asked Isabelle and Tom to guide it with quite a few new accounts. In a short time, the affair was widely spread within the campus.

It had been the top topic in the school forum for two weeks.

As a result, the Brown family was informed as well.

This morning, Rita was called back to the Brown family by Amelia in a hurry.

“Rita, do you still remember the tenth rule of our family?” Amelia on the sofa was staring at her, asking in a low tone.

Rita nodded, “Yes, Mama.”

“Recite it to me.”

“Be prudent to make friends and treasure the marital harmony.”

“Exactly!” Amelia murmured and repeated the rule. Then she reminded with a look of deep significance, “Since you are married, you now should be careful when you befriend someone, and attach importance to your marriage. Do you understand what I mean?”

Despite Amelia’s implicitness, Rita comprehended the connotation.

Amelia actually expressed her demand.

That was, never let the friends destroy the marriage.

It seemed that Amelia’s purpose of calling her back was not only having a meal with her.

What she truly wanted to do was to insinuate Rita after knowing the affair; she was worried that Rita made a big mistake.

After all, the scandal of their marriage must do harm to the family’s reputation.

But Rita wondered how the Brown’s got the message from the campus.

“Rita?”

She was absent-minded for such a long time that Amelia called her name.

Rita regained her composure, smiling, “You are right. I will remember it all the time.”

“My dear grandma, don’t worry. My sister loves her husband so much that they must live happily together.”

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind, and then Charlotte walked in.

Charlotte squatted in front of Amelia and massaged her legs to please her, “I think they may have a baby next year. Do you agree with me, my dear sister?”

Hearing Charlotte’s question, Rita made a pathetic effort to smile, “Yes.”

Noticing Rita’s nodding, Amelia smiled happily.

And she held Rita’s hands to tell her the advantages of having a baby and particularly asked to the servants in the kitchen to cook some enriched soup to prepare her body for pregnancy because she thought Rita was too slim.

After a week, Amelia paid all the attention to Rita who was believed to be pregnant next year, and forgot the affair.

Although she was not questioned any more, Rita was still confused.

What’s the purpose of Charlotte’s help?

She didn’t trust Charlotte as a good girl.

“Grandma, why don’t you ask my sister to call her husband here? It’s a good chance for us to have a meal together.” Now Charlotte spoke slowly.
