Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 743
Simon took the document and lowered his peach blossom eyes to see it. As his eyes swept over it, he saw the most eye-catching title first: The Divorce Agreement.
Initially, the corners of his eyes were filled with a languid smile, but now, the smile was gone totally.
Just like the laboratory sheet that the doctor handed to him in the emergency department that year, his slender fingers tightened the sheet, which made a rustling sound. His pupils contracted, and his cold eyes seemed to sink into a miasma of sadness and despair.
"Mrs. Chin, what do you mean?"
Emily straightened her back and felt that her body kept sinking into the sofa as if she could not touch it. At this time, she really wanted to cover her ears and shout at him.
She did not want him to call her Mrs. Chin anymore!
Because every time she heard him call her that, she felt that something in her heart collapsed.
Emily stood up from her shadow and moved her feet to turn aside. "I have signed the divorce agreement and can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau at any time to remove our relationship. But I won't take any of your property!"
In fact, she didn't even read the agreement carefully, because the details in it were not important to her.
After returning from the hospital, as the night outside became darker and darker, all the sound from his mobile phone was mechanical female voice. When dawn came little by little outside, she pulled off her pen cap and signed her name at the last page.
Simon threw the divorce agreement in his hand on the tea table and strode to her. His peach blossom eyes suddenly narrowed and he said in a low voice, "What do you mean?"
His voice became much higher in the end. His shout seemed to echo across the living room.
Emily slightly raised her eyes and was caught by his cold and sullen eyes. At this moment, she was confused. She found that she still couldn't understand him, as if she didn't understand where his anger came from.
Wasn't this what he wanted?
She clenched her fist, and her cold sweat wet the lines inside. "Monster, we've been married for four years now, and our agreement has ended. We'll go our separate ways from now on. We don't have to be bound by this marriage anymore. Finally, you and I can regain our freedom!"
"Emily, Do you dare to say it again!" Simon said while grinding his teeth.
Emily shrank her shoulder suddenly because of his roaring from a close distance. She saw him coldly staring at her at this time, and it seemed that there was a fierceness in his eyes.
She felt timid, but at the same time, she was slightly annoyed. "Simon!"
Simon's Adam's apple rolled.
Usually, she would call him monster. It was rare for her to call out his name together with his surname directly, only once.
Even after such a long time, he still remembered very clearly that not long after they got married, his first patient that couldn't be healed passed away. At that time, he was very depressed and pressured. She had accompanied him in the garden for a long time and softly called his name to comfort him. She told him that the doctor's job was to heal the wounded and rescue the dying. It was his duty to save the patient, and he had done everything he could to save the patient.
And she also said that he did very well...
This was the second time she called him like this.
Even at this time, when he was extremely angry, he still felt warm in his heart for her gentle call. His closed palm gradually relaxed. He wanted to reach out to grab her arm, but he had to stop owing to Emily's following words.
Emily looked into his peach blossom eyes, which were black with glow in the morning light, and said softly, "You persuaded me to marry you for four years. And now, please allow me to ask you for a divorce." She thought she was invincible, but she overestimated herself, it was hard for her to say the last few words.
Simon's handsome eyes and brows suddenly turned cold.
He stared at her, silent but fearful, and the atmosphere of the warm house was suffocating.
A burst of strange ringtone of mobile phone suddenly rang. It did not belong to either of them, but it came from Simon. His mobile phone had long been out of power. He frowned, but took out a rose-gold mobile phone that only women would use from his trouser pocket. There was also a selfie of Addy on the screen bail.
Emily also saw it clearly and turned her face away.
Simon was a little surprised at first, and then he remembered that it was given to him by the nurse on duty. He put it in his trouser pocket. When he thought of something, his face suddenly changed. "Hello? What are you talking about? What's wrong with Addy?"
The tall and straight figure disappeared very quickly.
Emily looked blankly at the door that was closed heavily, and the corners of her mouth curled into a smile.
She fell back to the sofa, picked up the agreement that had just been thrown on the tea table by him, and smoothed out the corner of it.
She didn't know how long she had been sitting there, until her phone vibrated again and again. She took it out from her pocket and put it beside her ear. Tina's anxious voice spread over the line. "Emily, what are you doing? Why haven't you come to work yet? Anyway, the editor-in-chief got angry just now. I found an excuse for you. Come here quickly!"
"... Got it!" Emily said with a twist of the corners of her mouth.
Hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but raise her hands and hold her shoulders. The weather in early spring was still cold, and the heating in the room should not have been stopped completely. But why was she getting colder and colder?
No matter how serious the matter was, she still had to wash her face and continue to work, no matter whether she was out of love or out of marriage.
Emily rushed to the TV station and was naturally scolded by the editor-in-chief. Then she had a quick lunch and took the machine with Tina to the construction site across the river by car. The editor-in-chief was not very satisfied with the interview material they took back last time, so they had to go back and record a few shots again.
Emily and Tina's division of work was very tacit. One was holding a wireless microphone and the other was holding a camera.
The construction site had started. There were many workers wearing hard hats walking around, and the sound of the machinery operation was not low. Emily used her camera to follow Tina to walk around. When she adjusted the light, she was stunned.
Her eyes stopped on the silver light on her ring finger, and her expression was a little absent-minded. In just a few days, her state of mind was completely different, and the world seemed to have undergone a great change.
As Emily's eyes wandering, it was as though she could see Tina's wide-open eyes in shock.
Emily frowned in confusion. Tina held the microphone and gesticulated nervously until she ran to her side. She finally understood what she was shouting. "Emily, be careful-"
She raised her head subconsciously, and then her whole body stiffened.
From the high building surrounded by the green web, a huge iron sheet was falling straight toward her.
Emily screamed in a low voice. It was too late to dodge. In a hurry, she could only use her hands to protect her head and squatted down. The expected pain did not come, instead, she was hit to the side by a force.
Tina panicked and asked, "Emily, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" Emily shook her head. Except for the dust that was raised, she did not get injured. She turned her face to look at the side and swallowed, "Boyd, how... are you?"
