You, Me And Our Genus Twins

Chapter 122 Shut the Hell Up!

The lawyer respectfully handed the paperwork to Morgan before Morgan looked through them. When he was satisfied with them, he passed the documents to Erin and said, “Sign these.”

“N-No… I won’t divorce. I won’t!” Erin shook her head and stared at the divorce paperwork in front of her like they weren’t paper, but a viper with words printed on it.

Morgan eyed her and said icily, “If you sign these today, I’m willing to give you an apartment and a commercial building as part of the settlement. If you don’t sign these, I’ll have my lawyer proceed with the lawsuit. Do you still remember the agreement you entered into with my dad all those years ago? If I take this divorce to court, this marriage will be dissolved and leave you with nothing. There will be no settlement.”

“No… No…” Erin let out a shriek and quickly lunged toward Morgan before she fell to her knees in front of him. She clutched at his clothes and looked up at him tearfully while crying, “Morgan, I know I was wrong to have done all that. I’m really sorry, and I promise it won’t happen again. Give me one more chance; please don’t go through with the divorce. Think about Jack and Nicholas. Forgive me this once and I promise I won’t do something like this ever again… We’re not young anymore, Morgan, and if we divorce now, how would others think of us?”

She had not expected her schemes, born out of her petty jealousy, would end up being her downfall. Had she known, she would have stayed quiet and washed her hands off the situation just like Benjamin and Diana had done all this while.

It was now that she understood what it meant to have her plans backfiring on her. She thought she was being clever when she hid her wickedness from the outside world, but in reality, it was only a matter of time before her true nature revealed itself.

Her family did not suspect her because they trusted her implicitly, but when someone finally tore through the veil that obscured her deepest, darkest, and most vicious thoughts, all her wickedness came tumbling out into broad daylight.

Everyone knew what she had been planning to do.
