Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 24

When Rita run out, Liam had driven away.

Looking at the long-empty street, Rita irritably took out her mobile phone and dialed the number which she was very familiar with. But, what returned to her was a machine-like and polite woman's voice, "Sorry, the number you dialed has been turned off."

"Turned off?"

'What ... ?!! '

Rita, griping her phone, gritted her teeth with anger that almost hurt her lip.

It was obvious that Liam was hiding from her on purpose.

"Mrs. Wilson, where should we go now?" The driver glanced at the pale-faced woman sitting in the back seat and asked in confusion.

"Company!"

Since the death of Joey, Liam's life had been repeating in two places, his home, and the company.

Besides, he would usually go to hold a regular meeting in the company on Monday.

All she needed to do was to go to the company's entrance and wait for him.

She had decided that she must meet the person who touched her mobile phone that year and prove she was innocent as soon as possible.

***

In the Wilson Group.

President's office.

Liam stared at the computer screen for a long time but couldn't focus on anything as he was fidgeting. His mind was full of images that Rita contacted with Oliver in the morning and her cold words.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, which made him frown again and again.

"Liam, is there anything wrong with the Plan for the Land of South City?" Seeing that he was frowning, Jacob curiously put his face in front of the computer.

However, Jacob did not see the document of his Plan for the Land of South City as expected but saw a screen wallpaper.

Eh ...

What ...?

Jacob licked his lips and looked at Liam, who was still in a daze. Jacob smiled as his beautiful eyes curved into the shape of a crescent. "Well, well, well ... Liam, what are you thinking about? What attracted you?"

"Rita." With a headache, Liam pinched his nose. Even he didn't know what was wrong with him that he was disturbed by that woman and couldn't even calm down.

In the past, when Liam mentioned Rita, his eyes were full of hatred. But today, Jacob saw annoyance and entanglement in Liam's eyes. Although there was still a trace of displeasure, the dislike or resistance had disappeared.

The change in Liam's eyes was subtle, but Jacob, who was experienced in love, saw something wrong.

"Liam, you ..." Jacob looked at the man in horror, for fear that Liam had fallen in love with Rita.

"What?" The man frowned.

"Nothing, nothing, I'm thinking too much." Looking at Liam's cold eyes at the moment, Jacob felt that he must have had an illusion. 'How could Liam fall in love with Rita?' "I know you won't have such bad taste in women!"

"Well?" Feeling that Jacob was a little strange, the man couldn't help but shout, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to say?"

"I'm just afraid that you had fallen in love with Rita!" Jacob didn't dare to hide anything, so he told the truth.

After Jacob said that, Liam became silent. Seeing this, Jacob smiled. He patted his chest firmly and said, "But I believe your taste is not bad, definitely. You won't fall in love with Rita, the damn fat indoorswoman!"

Liam didn't respond but just stared at the computer deeply.

Furthermore, Jacob's last sentence happened to be heard by Rita, who was finding Liam.

She stopped in her tracks, and her mouth twitched in anger.

'Damn fat indoorswoman!'

Rita lowered her head and glanced at herself, who weighed fifty kilograms and was 1.65 meters tall. With a bitter smile, she admitted that she was an indoorwoman, but she couldn't admit that she was fat!

Although Rita was a little dissatisfied with Jacob's evaluation, she was not in the mood to care about it.

She deliberately cleared her throat and made a little noise. Then, she pushed the door and walked in.

"Liam, is the Plan for the Land of South City qualified?" Jacob pointed at the empty screen and pretended to work seriously, fearing Rita found what he said.

"I didn't found anything wrong for the time being. Let me check it again."

Jacob was surprised by the man's response.

Was Liam helping him put on an act?
