Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 192

“Rita, you’re back.”

When Rita and Oliver were full of doubts, Lillian Burke walked out of the second bedroom with her suitcase.

When she saw Rita, she jumped right up and hugged Rita, “It's good that I can see you again before I go.”

“Go? Where are you going?” Rita looked at Lillian, who was already red-eyed, in a daze, with unspeakable dismay in her eyes.

Lillian let go of Rita and glanced to Atherden at her side, “I'm going to marry him.”

Get married?!

This sudden news gave Rita another shock.

Lillian was in love with Michael not long ago, and now she wanted to get married to another man?!

This was s sudden and too fast, so fast that Rita felt that Lillian simply was fooling around.

Marriage was not a joke, she can’t watch Lillian jump into the pit of hell again and again.

Rita raised her eyes and gave Atherden a polite smile, then turned her head to Lillian and dragged Lillian into the room, “Excuse us for a second, I have something to talk about with Lillian, you two wait inside the living room.”

Oliver nodded and walked straight into the kitchen, “Mr. Wright, would you like tea or coffee?”

Watching the door close tightly, Atherden then withdrew his eyes and sat upright on the sofa, “Tea please.”

“My pleasure.”

With a snap, the door to the room closed.

Two girlfriends look at each other, but Rita's heart was full of worry, “Lillian, I hope you can think carefully about getting married, I think you are not suitable to talk about marriage before you completely let go of the last relationship.”

Feeling Rita’s concern for her, Lillian’s nose was sour as tears fell down her face.

“You... Why are you crying?” Rita looked down at Lillian, who was hugging her again, and Lillian’s eyes were confused, and she suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, “I don't mean anything else, I'm just afraid you'll have a hard time climbing out of one pit of hell and falling into another one.”

“I know.” Lillian dried her tears but hugged Rita tighter, “It feels good to be cared for by you, I thought... I thought you would never care about me anymore, and I thought I completely lost you as a friend.”

Sucking in her nose, Lillian raised her head with teary eyes, “The day I watched you sadly leave, I knew I was wrong, I can't wait to kick myself to make amends to you.”

Setting Rita up was the most foolish thing Lillian had done in her life, which was also the most remorseful thing that she had done in her life.

Rita paused and fell into silence.

There was a time when she too thought her friendship with Lillian had come to an end.

But when she saw Lillian lying dying in front of her because of the trick Lillian played, all her hatred and resentment dispersed, and at that moment there was only one wish in her head --

Lillian, you must be alive.

She curled her lips lightly, “Don’t mention it again, it’s all in the past. Are you serious about the marriage?”

“Yes.” Lillian wiped her tears and nodded solemnly.

Rita pursed her lips, “How long have you known him? Do you know him well? Do you want to check him out before you talk about marriage?”

Atherden Wright, the heir of the Wright family in C country.

He was married once, but not long after the marriage his childhood sweetheart wife died in a car accident and had been single ever since.

Recently, his grandmother's health was getting worse and she was anxious to find a wife for Atherden to continue the Wright family's legacy, but Atherden was in love with his childhood sweetheart.

The countless women his family found for him were rejected by Atherden but only did not reject Lillian, who was very much like his last wife.

Atherden’s grandmother saw this and found someone to propose marriage to the Burke family and promised to help the Burke family through the difficult times as long as Lillian agreed to the marriage.

This was also an important reason why Lillian agreed to this marriage.

But Lillian put these in her heart and did not say anything, she just put on a faint smile, “He was introduced to me by my eldest uncle, he and his family are good, we secretly get along for some time, he is good, to me and to my parents.”

Rita knew that it was redundant to say anything else since Lillian had made up her mind.

Since the Burke family checked the situation for Lillian, then she believed that Atherden must be good in all directions, “Well... You have to be happy.”

“Yes, I will, and you too, you must be happy with Liam.” Lillian didn’t know things happened between Rita and Liam, she just smiled brightly, with sincere blessings in her eyes.

Lillian smiled so brightly, but Rita felt a slight pain in her heart.

Her happiness had been cut off by her own hands.
