In the light, Sammy Jones, who had not been seen for a long time, was standing there. The sound just now was the sound of her luggage falling to the ground. She just looked at the two people embracing not far away in shock, her eyes bulging so much that her eyes were about to fall off.
When Andrea Jones saw her, she stared at first. And then, seemingly because of the memory of the past, some difficult to look at Neal Williams, grabbed his sleeve of the hand, let go.
“… Sister.” It took a while for Andrea Jones to find her voice and greet Sammy Jones.
She thought she was still in Florida.
Sammy Jones returned to his senses and his face turned extremely ugly. His complex gaze darted from Neal Williams, ignored Andrea Jones’ greeting, picked up his luggage, and struck out for the neighborhood. Not even looking back, not even glancing at them as they passed.
Andrea Jones is in a state of shock.
There had been a falling out once before over Neal Williams and Sammy Jones, and it was already in the back of my mind. Their concern was well and truly stitched up. Besides, she’s the only family she has now!
“Sis!” Andrea Jones called again, but, Sammy Jones continued to ignore it.
She was so anxious that she gave Neal Williams a look.
“Just go up there and talk to her so there’s no misunderstanding.” Neal Williams reassured in a hushed voice. He knew how much Andrea Jones cared for this sister.
“Okay, I’ll go up first then.” Andrea Jones nodded, turned sharply, and left.
After a few steps, she paused in her steps and looked back.
Neal Williams was still standing there watching her. Her anxiety passed away slightly, which turned back and walked into the unit building. Walking to a place he could not see, she pressed her chest slightly, where … was beating fast and furious …
It turns out that the heart that thought it was dead really only beats for this person.
Watching the figure disappear from his eyes, Neal Williams bitterly for a moment. He waited a little longer before turning around and getting into his car. The call went to Zoey Baker, who was still in Hong Kong.
“Get a lawyer to write a divorce settlement.” Neal Williams instructed.
Zoey Baker was stunned, “You’re divorcing Miss Brown?”
Neal Williams just gave a vague ‘mmm’, his fingers still falling on his lips. As if the heat and breath belonging to her still remained there. For the first time in two years, he felt alive and sentient … instead of walking …
“You should know very well that Miss Brown is more difficult to deal with. An agreed divorce is probably out of the question.”
Zoey Baker is absolutely right.
“Then we’ll just file it with the court.” Neal Williams leaned back in the driver’s seat, tilting his head in fascination at the one light that was on upstairs. The light was faint, but it was enough to illuminate his heart, which had been dim for two years. “If you’ve been separated for more than two years, you can file for divorce. How many months are left now?”
Zoey Baker calculates, “It’s less than two months away.”
Neal Williams grunted, “It’s the first time I’ve found two months so hard to get through. But after two years, two months is really nothing.”
Zoey Baker laughs, “If the divorce does work out, I’ll be the first to congratulate you.”
Neal Williams smiled back, “Help me get the information ready.”
The other side.
When Andrea Jones arrived home, Sammy Jones was crouched on the floor gathering her things. Her face was strained, and it was clear that she was still angry.
“… Sister.” Andrea Jones called out tentatively.
She should not, not even grunt.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming back so I could pick you up at the airport?”
Sammy Jones brought out the heavy law book and grunted when he heard her words, “I wanted to surprise you, but now it seems you don’t even bother with my surprises either.”
Her nonchalant words made Andrea Jones sad inside. She stepped forward and knelt down to clean up with her. “Are you mad at me and Neal Williams …”
Sammy Jones moved and lifted his eyes to look at her, “It’s not what you think! I don’t feel anything for him … anymore.”
“Really?” Andrea Jones’ eyes lit up slightly.
“It’s true! But that doesn’t mean I allow you two to be together!” Sammy Jones gave her a look, “Don’t you know who Neal Williams is now? You’ve been back here for days!”
“Hmm? What identity?”
Andrea Jones’ eyes were filled with confusion, and Sammy Jones was stunned. She … really did not know that Neal Williams was married and that Neal Williams had kept her in the dark until now?
“He’s actually …” the words ‘already married’ almost came out of his mouth.
“What, actually?” Seeing Sammy Jones’ words pause, Andrea Jones couldn’t resist asking a follow-up question.
Looking at those innocent eyes, remembering the two years of her nostalgia for Neal Williams, those words Sammy Jones suddenly could not say a word. Only said: “You forget the pain he brought you in the past? Have you forgotten that day on the hill eight years ago? Have you forgotten how Dad left? Have you forgotten what Mom said to you?”
Sammy Jones asked a series of rhetorical questions that made Andrea Jones stiffen for a moment.
She bit her lip and looked at Sammy Jones, “Sis, I haven’t forgotten any of those, but … I’m here …”
She pointed to her chest and her eyes burned, “Here’s more remember what it feels like to be alive! The feeling that only comes from being around him.”
Sammy Jones was stunned and her eyes were red all of a sudden. She really dared not imagine how Andrea Jones would accept such a cruel truth if she knew that Neal Williams was already married and now her existence was just a shameful third party.
“Andrea Jones, don’t be so stubborn!” Sammy Jones was afraid and continued to advise her, “You are dead set on him right now, that’s why you feel this way. If you let go of him, you will naturally have someone else in your heart to fill it!”
“I’ve been trying to let go for the past two years, but … it turns out that I simply can’t do it. Sister …,” Andrea Jones looked at Sammy Jones supplicatingly.
Sammy Jones’s heart was softened. However, the next moment … she slate down again!
“No! No! Think of Daddy, think of Mommy! I absolutely forbid it!”
She simply turned away and stopped looking at Andrea Jones.
“Sis!”
“You do not say anything! Andrea, you believe in sister, with him definitely will not have any good end!”
Neal Williams …
How could he be so cruel?
Why did she hide the truth from her when she was married?
That night, Andrea Jones lost sleep again. In her mind, she was still thinking about Neal Williams’ ‘I’m sorry’ before he kissed her, and Sammy Jones’ last words.
It is true that women are sensitive creatures. Always feel that both people are a little strange, but, even though she thought about it all night, she could never think of a reason.
Magazine office, inside the office.
Penny Brown sat at her desk, looking at the magazine manuscript, and threw it all to the floor in a temper tantrum. The editorial staff stood there, one by one, with trepidation. Everyone knew that Ruan’s temper was getting worse day by day. He looked like he had entered menopause early.
“All right, all right, you guys go ahead and get out.” Penny Brown’s assistant told them all to get out.
Glancing at Penny Brown, she picked up her script and asked, “Did you have a fight with your husband?”
When she asked this, Penny Brown froze. The next moment, forced himself to slow down his face, “Why? He’s very good to me and never argues with me.”
“That’s good.”
Penny Brown’s heart is sad.
Indeed never quarrel …
Because, they don’t even have a chance to fight!
When she thought of the erotic pajamas her mother-in-law had bought yesterday, she felt that it was the most naked humiliation for her. When did she, Penny Brown, ever need to dress like that to seduce a man? And it wasn’t just once!
The most humiliating is …
Even dressed like that, the man was disdainful.
“Sister Brown, your delivery!” There was a knock on the door and someone came in. Penny Brown took a pen and signed for it, scanning the delivery slip.
I just thought it was a small sample of the advertisement sent by which company, so I casually threw it to my assistant, “Help me unwrap it.”
The assistant answered, took the work knife and carefully dismantled. When he opened it and turned it over for a while, the whole person was dumbfounded. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. When he saw her face look strange, he only frowned, “What is it that scares you like this?”
“Yes … is your personal stuff.” The assistant explained with trepidation. Oh my god! She actually blindly saw this, it looks like, this assistant is simply not going to be long!
“Mine?” Penny Brown reached over and grabbed it suspiciously.
The line of sight, browse through. At first glance, a few large, stinging words came into view – “divorce agreement”
Divorce agreement?!
Face, already pale. Hands, trembling. She lifted to the last page like crazy, the paper directly broken. However, it is clear to see the last signature file spilling two big words – Neal Williams!
Yes!
Very good!
He actually presumed to divorce her by agreement!
“Bastard! Want a divorce! Don’t you dare!” Penny Brown was so angry that she brushed everything off the table and scrapped it on the floor, along with her computer.
The assistant on the side was completely dumbfounded. Electric … computer is full of choreographed scripts ah! And … didn’t she always say that her husband treated her incredibly well? Now to divorce, and what is the situation ah?
“What are you still standing around for? Clean this place up for me!” Penny Brown glared at her assistant with hatred, took the divorce agreement and headed out of the office. He walked to the shredder and in a moment, shredded the agreement to pieces!
Took the phone and dialed Neal Williams’ number.
This time, unprecedentedly, he was actually willing to take it. Penny Brown lowered her voice and gritted her teeth, “Neal Williams, want a divorce … next life!”
Compared to her emotional state, Neal Williams just smiled blandly, “The agreement you were given, did you tear it up or shred it? It’s okay, I’ve had a lot of them printed and I’m sending one to your office every day. Perhaps, tomorrow is not mailed to you.”
Neal Williams knows Penny Brown’s pride and self-esteem. She will not let anyone know that her poor marriage is in fact a sham. And he, for his part, was going to tear it all apart.
“You … Neal Williams, you don’t bully people!” Penny Brown tightened her grip on the phone.
“If we get a divorce, we’re good and together. Penny Brown, if you’re smart, this is the best decision you can make!” Neal Williams sounded indifferent.
Penny Brown suddenly remembered something, “Why suddenly filed for divorce? Neal Williams, is … Andrea Jones back?”
Thinking of that woman, her heart tightened violently and a cold light burst out from her eyes.
“Filing for divorce, does that seem sudden to you?” Neal Williams snickered, “You know full well that every day I was married to you I was thinking about divorce.”
I just did not expect that such a marriage, she can also last for two years. He knew very well that Penny Brown did not have the word ‘love’ for him. Perhaps, nowadays, there is only hate and resentment left.
His directness made Penny Brown embarrassed and humiliated to the extreme, and just wanted to say something else, but Neal Williams had categorically hung up the phone.
