Regal Villa.
I caught a strong perfume scent the moment I got through the door.
I rubbed my nose before entering uncomfortably.
Did Delia seriously spill a whole bottle of perfume in the living room?!
After entering the room, Delia's charming, smiling face greeted my eyes. It was as red as a blood rose in hell, but it carried with it a bloodthirst that invoked fear in others.
I put down my luggage as I met her gaze. “Where are my children?”
“Don't worry. Why don't you rest since you just came back?” Delia raised her eyelids slightly as a touch of arrogance appeared in her gaze that was on me.
Damn it!
I walked up and stood in front of her, my gaze condescending. “Delia, I don't want to waste time with you here. Tell me your conditions.”
Clap, clap...
She stood up while applauding. She smiled and met my sharp gaze. “This feels so good. What you have to do next isn’t difficult. You’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Theo tomorrow and get a divorce.”
Hearing this, I was taken aback for a moment and almost forgot how to breathe. I held my breath and looked at the woman in front of me, my hands clenched into fists.
Seemingly noticing my movements, Delia winked as she tilted her head to ask, “What’s wrong? Didn’t Theo and you fall out? Rather than being miserable together like this, it's better to get a divorce. Both of you will feel better, no?”
It was obvious that Delia had already guessed that Theo and I were only pretending to argue with each other since she could say this.
I bit my lower lip. I wanted to reply to her, but I did not know where to start.
Delia looked at me, a smile slowly appearing on the corners of her mouth. It was coquettish. “You’re so hesitant. Yet when I told Theo about this yesterday, he immediately agreed.”
“You said he has already agreed?”
I could not believe it and asked again to confirm.
