Take Me Away novel Chapter 148

Eric stared at Fiona and couldn't help but recall Spencer. He had accompanied Spencer throughout the day. Spencer had been sitting like a statue staring at the divorce agreement in his hands and finally signed his name at the bottom of the document.

When Eric came back from his senses, he noticed that Fiona had already signed the agreement.

George could only freeze in shock. Pain and resentment filled his eyes. 'Spencer, how could you be so heartless!' he thought.

"Fiona..." He opened his mouth with the intention of comforting her, but he couldn't come up with the proper words.

Teardrops fell from her eyes onto the document when she read it before handing it back to Eric. In her miserable state, it was impossible for him to not feel sorry for her.

Eric took the divorce agreement and informed her, "Spencer said that it isn't safe for you to stay here in P City. He still hasn't dealt with Charles. It's best for you to leave. He will send you back to M City, where you will stay at the Cheng family residence. You should stay at home and spend time with his grandpa. When things are dealt with here, he will go back to see you."

"Grandpa..." Fiona's heart sank at the mention of Wayne. She didn't know how she could possibly face him after everything that had happened. How could she go back to that place full of memories?

"They're divorced! Why does he still insist on taking charge of Fiona's life?" George asked Eric with a cold stare. "Go back and tell Spencer that whether or not Fiona chooses to stay or leave for M City, it's her decision and it's none of his business. Why is he being so self-righteous now? Fiona doesn't have to go back to the Cheng family if she doesn't want to!" George's hands tightened into fists as he raged.

"But if she won't go back to M City, where will she go?" Eric said anxiously. "Charles has urged the leaders of T Country to investigate our entry without permission. If she stays in this place, she's going to get caught up in the mess. Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for her to stay here? Do you think that Charles would stop pursuing her just like that? Spencer is doing this for her own good!"

A bitter laughter broke out from Fiona, causing the men to turn to her. She gave a sad yet mocking smile. "So this divorce is for my own good?"

Hearing this, Eric wanted to say something, but decided otherwise. Regaining his composure, he looked at her and said in a low voice, "Take care of yourself, Fiona. Should you run into any trouble, please don't hesitate to call me. I will do my best to help you. As for Spencer, I hope you won't blame him for this decision. Just stay in M City and wait for him."

"Stop acting like you care about Fiona," George said with a menacing look. "If there's nothing else, I think it's best for you to leave."

Eric could only sigh in reply. After giving George a slight bow, he nodded at Fiona and left.

As soon as the door closed behind him, Fiona burst into tears as she buried her face in her hands. Her body trembled as she cried her heart out.

She had never expected to feel so humiliated for divorcing her husband. Not only did she feel shocked, but also felt utterly defeated. She could not wrap her head around the idea of being separated from Spencer. She had been used to seeing his stern expression every weekend whenever he came back from the base. She had been used to being close to him and spending time with him.

"Fiona..." George called softly.

"I'm fine, George," she said as she took a deep breath and looked at him. "I'm okay."
