Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore) novel Chapter 6

Chapter

Getting to the courthouse and checking in wasn’t a big deal, but Rebecca’s winter coat drew attention in the 

building

Many people glanced at them discreetly and then looked at Theodore with a probing gaze

Debra fussed over Rebecca, making sure she was comfortable

Theodore had always been the center of admiration, but this was the first time he was under judgmental stares. It felt like everyone was sizing him up, looking at him like he was a jerk

Frustrated, he snapped at the staff, Can you hurry up?” 

The staff gave him a look but kept to their steady pace

Rebecca, meanwhile, diligently answered every question and signed the paperwork placed in front of her

Theodore was about to sign when his phone suddenly rang

He frowned, put down the pen, and took out his phone. When he saw the screen, he froze

He moved a few steps away to take the call

At the counter, Debra held Rebecca’s hand, silently comforting her daughter

Meanwhile, Theodore expression drastically changed after answering the phone call. He then hurried out the door, looking anxious, ignoring the divorcing paper

Debra panicked and quickly ran after him, but the man was practically sprinting

Angry, Debra increased her pace, but she couldn’t keep up

Theodore!she yelled in frustration

What’s wrong with this man? Can’t he stay put for a divorce? He’s about to sign and now he’s running way!” 

It wouldn’t kill him to sign the papers before leaving

Becky, honey, stay put. Mommy’s going after him,Debra said to Rebecca, her voice tight with worry. I’ll have that jerk back here in thirty minutes!” 

And with that, Debra took off after Théodore

But outside, Theodore had already gotten into the sleek black RollsRoyce. The luxury car took off like a bat out of

So we didn’t catch up. Do i still get the two thousand bucks?he asked cautiously, glancing at Debra sitting in the 

passenger seat 

Debra was Tuning, but she wasn’t unreasonable. She immediately took out her phone and transferred two 

thousand dollars to the driver 

The driver was all smiles as he saw the money. Money talked, after all. That was indeed impressive

Take me back?Detira demanded

Becky was still at the courthouse. Debra needed to get back to her. Her daughter had just given birth and needed help during recovery. She couldn’t just leave her alone there

Absolutely, ma’am, night away!The driver happily agreed

It was two thousand dollars! He’d drive this rich lady anywhere she wanted, even out of the state, if she asked

He quickly got Debra back to the courthouse 

Meanwhile, Rebecca was still waiting until her mother returned

Debra’s anger melted into heartache when she saw Rebecca, mixed with a bit of guilt 

I’m sorry I couldn’t catch up with him,Debra said, holding Rebecca’s hand and comforting her softly

Tit’s fine, Rebecca said softly

Debra looked at Rebecca with concern. Becky, how about we go home for now? We can get it settled another day 

She initially wanted to ask something, but seeing the sadness etched on her daughter’s face, she couldn’t bring herself to do it. Asking would only make Rebecca feel worse, so Debra comforted her instead

Okay.” Rebecca nodded

Debra quickly called another car and took Rebecca home

At home, the nanny was taking care of the kids. Seeing Rebecca and Debra return, she walked over with the 

babies

How are the kids?Rebecca asked

They’ve been very good, no fussing. I was just thinking about whether to give them some formula. I didn’t expect 

you to be home this early,the nanny said with a smile

As soon as the nanny finished speaking, the baby in her arms stared intently at Rebecca, stretching out tiny hands as if asking for a hug

Rebecca’s heart melted. She hurried over and took the baby into her arms

The moment the baby was in her arms, it immediately snuggled into Rebecca’s chest. Maybe she washungry

The nanny chuckled at the sight. Looks like the baby girl wants to nurse.”
