Chapter 138 - 135
Chapter 138: Chapter 135
After my warning, a hint of hesitation and unease flashed in Karen’s eyes. She shot us a glare and strode into the hospital.
She’s still here at this late hour to accompany Ariel. She must really care about her
Luna groaned with disgust, "Birds of a feather flock together. I can’t stand anyone who’s friends with Ariel the Bitch"
With that, she gave Mitch a hard pinch, "including you, Mr. Can’t See Clearly!"
Mitch grimaced in pain and quickly swore, "I see it now, I really do! If I protect her again, I’m doomed?"
"How did you see it? How are you suddenly smart?" Luna asked surprised
Mitch spilled the beans about eavesdropping at the door with me. Luna gave me a thumbs-up. "You’re spot on! You actually guessed she’d show her true colors!"
I smiled smugly, "Of course, she always acts this way when we’re alone."
Luna nodded, "Makes sense. She’d have to keep up appearances in front of others. If it wasn’t just me who went to see her today, but all three of us, she could’ve put on a whole show!"
I agreed.
Soon after, Luna and I parted ways, each heading home.
When I got home, my mom was waiting for me in the living room. She didn’t relax until I was back, "Why are you coming home so late? You had me worried sick!"
"What, you were worried I went to see Damon?’ I asked, laughing as I took off my coal.
"Exactly! I’m your mom, I know you best. You’ve liked Damon for so many years, I’m afraid you can’t let go," my mom replied.
I sat down next to her, wrapped my arm around hers, and said with a smile, "If I couldn’t let go, why would I divorce him and move to a different country? Wouldn’t that be asking for trouble? It’s not like I’m the one stirring things up."
My mom patted my hand, looking both relieved and sympathetic, "I know, it’s just a pity about the baby. If you’d told us earlier, maybe we could’ve saved..."
"Mom, if you and dad knew I was pregnant, would you have objected?" I had been really worried about this.
"We would, but what could we say if you insisted?" my mom sighed heavily, "Your dad and I want to be grandparents too. All my old friends already have grandchildren..."
Hearing my moms words, I started off smiling. But as I continued to smile, tears slid down my cheeks, and a dull pain throbbed in my heart.
I don’t know if my parents will ever become grandparents. The odds of me having a child are as slim as winning the lottery
Hearing me cry, my mom quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe my tears, "Why are you crying? We’re not blaming you, so don’t blame yourself. Maybe the baby knew it wouldn’t have a complete family after being born and decided to go back, planning to come again in future."
I couldn’t speak through my tears.
My mom comforted me until I cried myself out, then took me to my room to rest.
The next afternoon, I woke up with puffy eyes. The sun was shining brightly outside, making it hard to open my eyes.
My phone was vibrating non-stop; a ton of WhatsApp messages had piled up.
I squinted at the screen, it was the girls from our group chat
The conversation started because Damon had made a statement explaining that the video about Ariel had nothing to do with me. It was a spur of the moment thing for Ariel, and he emphasized that I had done nothing wrong and hadn’t caused Ariel any trouble
Luna [Damon finally stepped up like a man this time, otherwise people would think Eliana bullied Ariel]
Clara. [Ariel is clever, pushing her mistakes onto Eliana. If Damon hadn’t cleared things up this time, she would’ve gotten away with it.
Sofia Isn’t she too cunning? So calculating at such a young age.]
Luna (She’s just shameless Mitch seems to have finally seen Ariel’s true colors; he hasn’t mentioned Ariel since the news]
Sofia [Isn’t that a good thing? Otherwise, I’d be pissed]
They were having a lively chat. After reading through their messages, I opened Twitter. Sure enough, Damon’s statement was trending.
Many of the netizens were confused because in their minds, the story was supposed to be that Damon and I married for benefits, had no feelings for each other, and had always been plagued by rumors.
Then one day, he fell in love with the innocent Cinderella, disregarded everything, divorced me, and gave Cinderella a happily-ever-after
And me, the ex-wife who Damon had driven away, couldn’t stand it and targeted Ariel the Cinderella, causing her to apologize to me.
So, why would Damon make a statement to protect me? Didn’t he care about Ariel’s dignity?
Looking at the flurry of comments, I felt nothing
Whether they were praising or criticizing me, I no longer cared.
But Damon’s next move surprised me.
The day after his statement, he sent someone to deliver a property division agreement for me to sign.
After reading the agreement, it mainly proposed to re-divide the property. Hall of all assets under Damon’s name, including cars, houses, and liquid assets, would be given to me, plus 10% of Coleman Co’s shares.
As long as I signed, the agreement would take effect immediately.
Although I’m not short of money, and my mom’s company isn’t small, it’s still smaller compared to Coleman Co.
The assets and shares Damon allocated to me were almost equal to the total value of my family’s company.
Looking at the agreement. I pondered for a while, then decided to call Damon.
"Did you receive the agreement?" The call was answered quickly. Damon’s voice is clear and deep.
"I did, what’s the meaning of this?" I asked
"I’ve had my parents review this agreement, and they have no objections. It’s what I owe you," Damon said, "I may not be able to make up for the physical and emotional harm you’ve suffered, but I’ll do my best to compensate you."
Damon has always been good about not owing anything to any woman associated with him, even those rumored actresses in the media.
So, his reputation in this respect was largely positive.
I know I should sign the agreement. How could I be dumb enough to turn down the cash? But once I sign, it’s like his damage to me has been compensated to the max, and it seems like I shouldn’t harbor any more anger or resentment.
"I leave the agreement here, I need to think it over" I didn’t outright say yes or no, just gave a vague reply.
"Alright, you can sign whenever you’re ready just let me know when you’re done, and I’ll swing by to pick it up." Damon responded straight up.
