Chapter 151 Meeting Rachel 

After speaking, I stood up and walked towards the elevator entrance. 

Walter quickly caught up, a slight frown creasing his brow. He blocked my path, looking at me as he said, “Tabatha…” 

“Walter!” I interrupted him first, not hiding the disappointment on my face at all, looking up at him and saying, “Ashley brought this on herself, I didn’t go looking for her, sparing her life was only for the sake of that unborn child. If she is now being cyberbullied to death, I can only say she deserves it. Walter, I’ve always thought you were a person who could distinguish right from wrong, but now it seems, you’re just like everyone else.” 

Ignoring the ashen look on his face, I continued, “Please sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible. I don’t need any compensation. from you. If you really want to compensate, then I beg you, let’s get the divorce certificate quickly and have nothing to do with each other in the future, without disturbing each other.” 

Regarding the Ashley matter, I knew from the start that Walter had no principles or bottom line. I paused slightly, took a breath, and continued to look at him, “Of course, if you never intend to sign and divorce me amicably, that’s fine too. You know me, I’m one to hold grudges, especially when I’m upset and irrational. I won’t care if she’s pregnant or about to give birth, I will stop at nothing to make her pay for her actions.” 

The elevator doors opened, and after I finished speaking, I walked straight into the elevator, ignoring Walter’s gloomy and unclear expression. 

By now, I didn’t have much of those so-called feelings for Walter

anymore. After two years of married life, our relationship was nothing more than one of mutual respect. Now that things have come to this point, the feelings that once grew from our day and night 

companionship have been completely worn away by repeated disappointments. 

It seemed that people were like this. The so-called “familiarity breeds affection” was not about affection, but habit. Suddenly breaking the habit would be very uncomfortable, both physically and mentally. However, when we clearly realized that we had to break this habit, we would suggest to ourselves in our minds. Over time, this habit would change. 

After leaving the hospital building, I looked up and took a deep breath of fresh air, then pulled out my phone and called Rachel. 

The call connected, and after two rings, Rachel’s excited voice came from the other end, “Big darling, long time no see, did you miss me?” 

After the last incident, I hadn’t heard her call me like this for a long time, nor had I felt such a good mood from her. I couldn’t help but slightly curve my lips and said, “Hmm, want to, where? Meet up?” 

“Alright.” The response on the other end of the phone was very prompt, almost immediately saying, “Let’s go for afternoon tea, I’ll send you the address, I’m heading over to wait for you now.” 

After hurriedly finishing her words, she hung up the phone as soon as I responded. 

I took a taxi to the address she gave me. 

She arrived before me. In the private room, as soon as I walked in, she came over to me with a smile, cheerfully asking, “Have you been busy lately? Auntie Eileen said you’ve been so tied up with things that you can’t spare any time. Have you been taking good care of yourself?”

I caught the main point in her words and asked, “Have you been in contact with my mom recently?”
