She paused for a moment. The smile on her face was becoming broader and broader, with a tinge of irony in her eyes.
"After all, you are my so-called father, aren't you? As your daughter, I kinda have to take care of you no matter what. If you died like this, how can I treat you well in the future?"
"I have to make sure that you live. Even if you are in a living hell, and you roll around in pain every day, you have to stay alive."
"At that time, even if you go back on your words, and you wanna sign those papers, and you wish to die, you won't make it."
Diego was severely shocked, and his face was pale.
His body was trembling in fear.
"How... How dare you..."
Laura blinked her eyes, "What?"
Diego didn't continue.
He knew he was just a prisoner now. Anything he said was no longer meaningful.
Laura took a pen out of her bag and placed it on the glass table.
"Sign them! I'm giving you an out here. Just sign them and die peacefully so that you could have a good time in your next life."
Diego stared at the pen and didn't make a move for a long time.
Laura was in no hurry and just waited for him in silence.
After a long time, she saw him suddenly look up and look straight at her. He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't buy it. What if I don't? Are you really capable of making any moves?"
Laura figured that he would not agree to her offer so easily.
She laughed softly and slowly. Suddenly, she leaned in and approached him. She whispered through a pane of glass, "Do you know the man that helped me last time and sent you to jail?"
Diego really didn't really know who he was.
He only knew that Laura hooked up with a rich man. And he did try to find out who he was, but he failed.
With the most unbelievably gorgeous but indifferent smile on her face, she said, "His name is Max, and he's the son of the Nixons from Eqitin. He is now my husband."
"Boom...!"
It was like a huge thunderbolt exploded fiercely in his head.
What?
The Nixon family?
His face now looked deathly pale.
He had heard of the Nixon family.
Those four families were the ones he could only look up to and were beyond his reach in his life.
However, he did not expect her to...
He looked at Laura in disbelief. She said carelessly, "I can't make your life a living hell, but my husband has always been good to me. And he will not want me to be unhappy. If he has to do this, I can't stop him, can I? You could question my power, but I don't think you'd question his, do you?"
Diego's lips trembled, but he didn't make any sound.
In the end, he just lowered his head helplessly and never uttered any more words.
...
About ten minutes later, Laura came out with the signed divorce papers.
Max was sitting in a chair, but he stood up as soon as he saw her.
"How was it?"
Laura raised the papers in her hand and smiled, "I made it."
Max paused and then smiled happily.
"Great!"
Laura looked at him and something occurred to her. Suddenly, she threw herself into his arms, held his waist tight, and buried her face in his chest.
Max had rarely seen her do this to him in public and was surprised for a moment. After a while, he patted slightly on her back and said with concern, "What's wrong, honey?"
