Sweet Divorce

Her face was pale as milk when she realized that.

She fucked up.

Cursing silently, Euan gave Bruno a pleading look. “Bruno…”

“Don’t you dare you to touch me again!” Bruno scolded, his face dark.

The way Bruno turned back on her pissed Euan so much that she bit her lip so forcefully.

So you’re not going to help me? You this old asshole.

in such a dire situation, the pressure made her brain run faster so that she came up with a solution.

Bruno seldom talked about the Browns, but not never. He mentioned them once or twice in his cups.

He said that there was a Brown girl who gave up everything for a man and ended up disowned by the family. She remembered.

The girl’s name was…her name was….was Rita! She recalled.

That’s right! Rita!

No wonder she found Rita’s name familiar when she first heard it. But she could not remember where she heard it and so did not pay it much mind.

Now that she remembered, that fear she felt abated.

Rita was that useless girl in Bruno’s mouth. she thought.

She glared at Bruno in his seat, and muttered. “Didn't you say that that granddaughter of your sister’s is useless? You said that she only a bitch that thinks about men and has never done a stroke of work. The Brown kicked her out, didn't they? What are you afraid of?”

She said those in a low voice, but loud enough for Rita to catch. She did it purposely.

And undoubtedly, Rita caught everything.

She gave Bruno a half-smile.

Useless!

Only a bitch!

Has never done a stroke of work!

Rita’s stare gave Bruno chills, he almost got on his knees.

Damn you! Euan! You stupid woman!

She’s going to ruin me.

“What a coward you are? She’s just a bitch, do you have to be so afraid?” Euan nudged at him. “Bru…”

“You are a bitch! Your filthy mouth fouls the room now!”

Bruno could no longer stand her. He stood up abruptly and slapped her right in the face. “Cut the crap. I never said those things!”

Bang!

Euan fell flat on the floor, blood trickling from her mouth.

Holding her cheek, she glared up at the man above her. “You slap me?! You son of a bitch!”
