Sweet Divorce

Liam carried Rita into the bathroom.

Seeing that Liam was about to unbutton her shirt, Rita got nervous and said hurriedly, “Don’t... I can just rinse my feet myself.”

Showering was really unnecessary.

What’s more, was Liam going to help her himself?

It was... It was a bit too much...

Rita then took off her shoes and immediately grabbed the shower head to cover her blushed face.

Liam let out a light smile and pinched Rita’s chin, “Are you being shy?”

Being forced to meet Liam’s indifferent face, Rita gathered her cool, “I’m certainly not. There isn’t a part of me that you haven’t seen before... What’s left to be shy about? There really isn’t the need to have a full shower since it’s just my ankle that is dirty. Well, you must be busy. You can just go deal with your own stuff. I will hose my feet myself.”

Liam then let go of her chin in a few seconds, “Sure.”

Rita immediately fell against the wall the minute after Liam left.

She was just toughening it out after what a roller-coaster experience she had before, but she would still have that throbbing fear just thinking about that horrible image.

But what she can’t shake off her mind was the sentences that Liam said.

She was really moved and felt sorry for him.

At the same time, Liam was sitting on the sofa cold-facedly.

There was an increasing note of oppressiveness coming from his eyes which was without a doubt intimidating.

Jacob and the man standing next to him were all tensed up and dared not to move a muscle.

They were perfectly aware that Liam was mad about what happened just now.

Jacob glanced at Liam secretly with the corner of his eyes.

His back started sweating profusely when he noticed Liam’s darkened face.

His whole mind had frozen because of the extreme pressure and didn’t really know how to savage the situation.

Liam then suddenly spoke, “One hundred canings.”

Jacob froze a bit because of Liam’s words, but he soon nodded, “Yes.”

Hearing that Jacob responded, the face of the boy standing next to him changed.

Though the boy looked lean, he was really agile and skilled.

He was actually Jonathan Bates, a prominent shady staff in the Wilson family.
