Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 117

In the bedroom, Zoe stopped thinking and looked at Rita. Then she spoke to Rita with a commanding tone for the first time, “Do not go to the school again from now on.”

Rita was jolted by her words, “Why?”

“Rita, now that you’ve married Liam, you cannot betray him and cheat on him. Anyway, you should stay at home until you lose your feeling for Oliver.”

Zoe grabbed her and then continued to say meaningfully, “It’s alright if you drop out of the college. The educational degree is not that important.”

Rita was shocked by what Zoe had said.

Was she serious about that?

The educational background was not that important?

But she was the one who made every effort to ask Rita to study hard.

She was the one who told Rita that a girl should not just think highly of love. And she was also the one who told Rita to grow more excellent by studying so that Rita would become an elegant and beautiful woman.

But why did her attitude change?

When Rita mentioned what Zoe had said to her, Zoe retorted, “There’s no need to continue your study if you can’t learn how to behave yourself.”

Rita frowned, “Mom…”

“Just do as I said.” Zoe interrupted Rita’s word, “I’ll talk to Liam about that later.”

Saying this, Zoe turned around and was about to leave.

Looking at her mom walking away firmly, Rita gave a wry smile.

If she knew her mom would be so worried that Zoe even asked her to drop out, she would never imply that she had a crush on Oliver.

It was the first time that she had ever been in trouble because her tactics backfired.

Seeing that Zoe was about to leave, Rita was afraid that Zoe would really come to Liam, so she caught Zoe and wanted to stop her.

“Mom, listen…”

“Liam…”

Zoe suddenly paused and spoke with mixed feelings.

Rita’s heart did a flip when she heard Zoe called Liam.

She lifted her head immediately and found Liam had been standing outside the door.

When she met his eyes, her eyes glinted with guilt.

When did he come?

Did he hear their conversation just now?

But it would be better if he knew she fell in love with other. He might let her go.

Thinking of that, Rita calmed herself down.

“Zoe, it’s time for lunch.”

When her minds wandered, Liam spoke unhurriedly in front of her.

“OK.” Zoe hid her panic and gave a smile to Liam right away, nodding.

Looking at Liam’s smile, Zoe thought he might not hear what they had talked, so she breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

Luckily…

She wiped the cold sweat covertly and took Rita near Liam with a grin, “Let’s go down for our family lunch.”

Zoe accentuated “family” on purpose to remind Rita to remember she was still Liam’s wife.

Rita was astonished when she saw Zoe treated her and Liam differently.

To avoid upsetting her mom, she did not argue. Then she wanted to go downstairs directly.

But Zoe flicked a glare at her when she took a step forward, “Don’t just hurry to have your lunch. Hold Liam’s arm and take him to the dining room.”
