Sweet Divorce

Outside a hotel affiliated to the Wilson Group, Liam parked his Maybach.

Rita cradled Lillian with one hand and tried to open the door with the other. Liam got the car and spared her the difficulty by opening the door for her.

“Thanks.”

Rita hauled Lillian, who was shitfaced, out of the car, and then moved her eyes on Liam. “I’ll take her upstairs.”

“I’ll go with you.”Liam glanced at Rita’s shaking leg and frowned.

As he tried to take Lillian from Rita to relieve her, a car rushed by and parked before them.

Jacob got off the car, his face complex. He trotted up to Liam and whispered to his ears. “Liam, It went wrong She…”

He swallowed the rest of his sentence when he spied Rita.

Rita took note of that. Dragging Lillian, she headed toward the hotel. “I’ll leave you two alone, I’m taking Lillian to her room.”

“Just say it.” Liam announced. He didn't have to hide anything from her.

Liam gave the hotel staff a look. And then immediately, a manager came out and brought Lillian in.

Rita stood still, wordless.

“Are you sure, Liam?” asked Jacob.

“Go on.”

Liam said resolutely.

Jacob brooded, and then confessed. “Nora was kidnapped.”

“Kidnapped?” Rita blurted.

“Right.” Jacob chewed his lip.

“What do you mean? Who took her?”

To explain, Jacob had to start with how Liam sent people to watch Nora so that she would not run, and how their people got knocked out and lost Nora after they left W university.

After hearing out Jacob, Rita’s face was complex when she looked at Liam.

So, he never thought of forgiving Nora.

She misunderstood him.

“That’s the whole story… now she’s nowhere to find.”Jacob summed.

“So, you lost her?”Liam peered at Jacob and said.

He voice was rather low, but powerful.

Jacob’s throat was tight when he met Liam’s eyes.

Damn, he lost Nora and Liam’s mad now. He’s screwed.
