Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 41

Everyone was shocked at what Rita said.

'Tired?'

The word had many interpretations.

Most of the Browns thought "tired" meant they had a passionate night.

So did Charlotte.

She looked at Rita, thinking Rita was just showing off her happy marital life to their grandma to please the old lady.

And she found that Rita had really gotten smarter lately.

But Charlotte didn't think there was much to worry about.

Anyway, because of what happened to Joey, Liam would not side with Rita.

She'd like to see what would happen next.

Charlotte as well as the other people present all looked at Liam.

There was a frown on his face.

Seeing this, Charlotte was more confident that her analysis was right.

But the next second, he said, "Rita, this is inappropriate. Grandma has something important to discuss with us. First things first."

Charlotte was shocked.

This was a hard blow to her.

'What's ... what's going on? Didn't Liam use to hate Rita the most?'

"Yes, yes, let's discuss important things first," cut in Mason. He didn't know what his daughter was thinking yet. "Liam, recently our family ..."

"Ahem!"

Amelia coughed and glared at Mason, motioning for him not to say anything else.

Everyone could tell that Liam was not going to talk about business.

Obviously, what he said was just pleasantries.

But the silly Mason took it seriously. How stupid!

However, more disappointment was waiting for her. Mason didn't even take her hint. He asked, "Mom, why are you coughing? Are you feeling unwell? Should I call the doctor?"

Amelia looked even more awkward.

How could she have such a stupid son who couldn't read one's face!

With her back to Liam, Amelia glared at Mason.

Mason was dumbfounded.

He had asked out of concern but ended up angering his mom. Embarrassed, he stood there and dared not to say one more word.

"Nothing serious. There's no rush. Liam, Rita will take you to rest first. We can talk later." Amelia looked at Liam with a smile.

"I'll do as Grandma says," Liam replied. Then he turned to Rita. "Where is your room?"

"On the third floor. I'll take you there." Rita took his arm and continued gently, "Baby, my room is not south-facing and is sunless, so you won't be able to enjoy your favorite sunshine. I hope you don’t mind."

She deliberately stressed the words "not south-facing" and "sunless."

As savvy as Amelia was, she would know what to do.

"Rita!"

Sure enough, Amelia stopped her.

With her back to Amelia, Rita smirked. When she turned around, she asked in confusion, "Yes, Grandma?"

"Take Liam to your old room, which has a French window and plenty of sunshine." Hearing Amelia's words, Rita bit her lips, pretending to be in a dilemma.
