Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 37

"Me?" Rita pointed indefinitely to herself again.

Soon she got a nod from the man. Her heart gave a great leap.

He was waiting for her.

Her eyes looked empty. "What’s up?"

"Grandpa wants us to eat at the old house," The man answered truthfully. As the shotgun seat was too small for his long legs, he adjusted his seat.

She knew. He could never come to her without reason.

She seemed to be accustomed to it, and she didn't feel lost.

On the way, Rita remembered things about Sophia Miller that had happened today. She couldn't help casting a glance at the man on her side.

She pretended to ask casually, "When did you leave from F University yesterday?"

"I don’t know." Staring at his phone all the time, Liam replied expressionlessly.

But he seemed to think of something and looked at her, "Any problems?"

"Nothing, nothing. Just asking." The man's rhetorical question proved exactly the conjecture of Rita.

The person who had taught Sophia a lesson for her was not Liam.

'If it was not him, who would be that person?'

'Oliver Roberts?'

No. It was not possible.

Oliver was so famous in school. How could Sophia not know?

Rita became increasingly curious about who the mysterious man was.

Immersed in thought, she did not notice that Liam was staring at her out of the corner of his eyes.

In the sun, Rita with short hair appeared sunny and boyish.

He had never looked so closely at the woman before, but today he settled down to look at her, and realized that she was quite good-looking and even attractive.

Especially those eyes. They were just as intelligent as the elf's.

When he was entranced by her, suddenly the woman beside him looked at him.

When his eyes met hers, Liam felt that his heart gave a violent bound, then he had a sense of embarrassment of being caught.

He quickly looked away and continued to fiddle with his phone.

"Stop looking around! Look at the road while you drive!"

Rita was speechless.

Did she look around?

"Still watching? Do you want to die?" The man's voice rang out again. Rita hastily looked back to the road ahead but murmured unbendingly, "Wasn’t you looking at me first?"

Although the voice was not loud, the man still heard it.

Suddenly, his face grew so hot.

He pretended to hear nothing and just stared at his phone screen with a blank face.

***

The arrival of Rita and Liam turned the quiet Wilson’s house. into a lively place.

Especially old Mr. Wilson. Rita never failed to make him laugh.

"Rita, I heard you’ve gone back to school?" The smile on old Mr. Wilson's face suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a serious look. "Did Liam upset you? If you are wronged, just tell me, I will teach him a lesson!"

"No, he's been nice to me lately."

"Then how come you went to school all of a sudden?" Old Mr. Wilson was puzzled, even worried.

Before, Rita would even like to be stick to Liam for 24 hours. How come she suddenly became sane and went to school?

It’s not her characteristic!

Last time Mrs. Davis said that Liam had actually started to care about Rita.

This surprised old Mr. Wilson even more.
