Sweet Divorce

“Kiss scene?”

Murmuring, Liam echoed, his eyesight cast on Rita again.

“Right.”

Rita lowered her head to finish her meal after replying Liam and took no notice of the coldness creeping up in his eyes.

Kiss?

Vexed, Liam clenched his hand at the thought of Rita kissing other man.

No, that can’t happen.

If anyone dared to kiss Rita, then he will kill him.

“Cancel the…”

“The kiss scene could help squash the gossip more smoothly.”

Rita interrupted Liam as he tried to tell her to cancel the shooting.

Her explanation soothed away the coldness inside him in an instant.

It’s just to squash the scandal. Liam was relieved.

The explanation was like a spring breeze, melting the ice in his heart which now turns into a creek. And he no longer scowled. “OK, you decide.”

Then he picked up a piece of lamb with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

Staring at the mutton, Rita paused for a second.

She still remembered how much Liam used to hate her because of Joey’s death.

Even though he was forced to marry her later, he barely came back home in the first year of their marriage, let alone having dinner with her.

She used to try whatever she could to pleas him whenever Liam came home.

Now it seemed Liam was doing what she used to do.

His attitude towards her changed dramatically ever since he knew she was the one who stayed by his bed and took good care of him. He have changed a lot rather than that cold-hearted man she used to know.

He feels guilty now that he knows the truth. Rita thought. That’s why he’s been doing all this, he’s trying to make it up to me.

She wouldn’t ask him to make it up, but she wouldn’t refuse if he did.

If this could make him feel less guilt, then be it. Maybe in this way things would actually end between them.

After chewing carefully, she swallowed down the mutton as she mused and Liam smiled at the sight of that.

Rita went back to the room for a shower after the dinner.

Having rinsed fatigue and the smell of hotpot off her, she put on her pajamas and placed her quilt and mat on the floor.

Then she heard footsteps coming from behind and found the door was pushed open.

Why does he come to the bedroom so early, he doesn’t have business to deal tonight?
