Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 119

“Liam…”

Rita wanted to stop him. But Liam stuck his tongue into her mouth when she spoke.

She pushed him away but then he held her into his arms again.

Their lips locked together.

He kissed her more fiercely this time.

Rita went blank for a second.

Dumbfounded, she gazed at him. What he had said in his deep voice kept playing in her mind.

“Don’t fall in love with other.”

She felt like his words had torn down all of her walls. Then her heart did a flip and thumped wildly.

She might doubt him in the past. But now she sensed that he was serious.

Then she was unnerved by his feelings.

She could not accept that.

She tried to dodge in anxiety, but there was nowhere to hide from him.

In order to stop him, Rita bit his bottom lip.

Liam seemed to feel the pain and then stopped himself.

Rita pushed him away at once and reminded him, “Liam, we’ve got divorced.”

“Rita…”

“It’s over.”

Liam still wanted to say something, but Rita interrupted him.

She managed to put it plainly if she hadn’t expressed herself clearly so that he still had some misunderstanding.

She wanted a clean break.

But she did not expect that he would turn silent.

The sound of glass falling down to the floor came from the trash can. Rita was jolted. Then she looked at the phone and found her cell phone was still on the line.

Oliver must have heard that.

She picked up her phone and wanted to hung up it. But her heart jolted when she saw it was “Jim” on the screen. Then she turned as white as a sheet.

Why was it Jim’s calling?

Did they accidentally dial his number when they grabbed the phone?

But…

Jim coughed suddenly in the phone. And then the sound of Mrs. Davis’s footsteps came through the phone, “Jim, why are you suddenly coughing blood?”

“Jim!” Rita was stunned and she gripped her phone tightly.

Hearing Rita’s voice, Liam was also jolted. Then he stared at her.

“Both of you, come home, now. I’ve got something to ask you.” After he said this, he hung up the phone and began to cough violently.

He felt like his lung had been squeezed by someone every time he coughed. And it hurt so bad that he developed a headache.

“Old Mr. Wilson, we should go to the hospital.” Seeing that he was feeling not well, Mrs. Davis suggest him worriedly.

But Jim waved his hand and then leaned on the couch weakly, “I’ll wait for them to come.”

“But…”

“Put it back to Rita’s room.” Jim gave Mrs. Davis the divorce agreement of Rita and Liam and reminded her, “Don’t tell them I have found the agreement when they’re home.”

“I know.”

“OK. You may go now.”

Jim waved his hand and then closed his eyes with mixed feelings.

In the meantime, Rita got anxious when Jim hung up the phone.
