Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 70

Looking at Liam, she was surprised. It seemed like a pebble dropped into the still surface of the lake and caused a ripple.

But the waves made her frown again and again.

‘Rita, all he has done is out of guilt. Don't think too much, don't think too much. Don't be silly and flatter yourself like you did in the prior life.

After her thought, Rita forced herself to look away from his face and watched out of the window. "Liam, the sin I suffered is not from Charlotte."

Although Charlotte created difficulties in that accident that year, it was he who really pushed her to hell!

His indifference and disgust towards her were the source of her suffering.

Hearing that, Liam clenched the wheel. He was so clever that he understood her implication.

He looked at the road ahead. His eyes showed guilt. "... Sorry."

Rita turned to watch outside with red eyes. She smiled bitterly. ‘Excuse me?’

He said it twice. Although he said sincerely, it could not release the past and heal hurt.

She didn't speak and watched the scenery outside backwards her.

Because of the silence, the atmosphere in the car was low again.

The car drove fast. They soon arrived at the old house of the Wilson family.

As soon as Rita got off, she saw Grandpa Jim waiting in his wheelchair.

"Grandpa, it's so windy outside. Why did you get out?" She frowned and quickly stepped forward.

Then she took the wheelchair from the housekeeper and said, "Sir, it's so windy outside. Don't let grandfather come out!"

"Don't blame him. I asked him to push me out... In this way, I can see you earlier and be happy earlier."

Looking at Grandpa Jim’s loving face, Rita felt her was going to cry.

She forced back the tears in her eyes and pushed him to the house. "Grandpa, it's windy outside. I'll push you back to the room first."

As soon as Rita was about to go, a big hand fell down.

One big and one small, one cold and one hot, two hands covered.

Rita felt her body stiff and suddenly pull her hand back.

Seeing this, Liam paused and held the arms of the wheelchair tightly. "You have some trouble with walking. I will do this."

Cripple!

Though his intention was good, the words stabbed Rita and outraged her susceptibilities. She looked bad for a second.

Although it was only a second, Liam noticed.

He was suddenly aware of her sensitivity.

He was about to explain something. But Rita released the wheelchair first and faintly said, “OK.” Then she took a step to the right side to open the distance between them.

Looking at the distance of one meter between them, Liam clenched the arms of the wheelchair.

Due to Grandpa Jim’s presence, they were careful in all their little movements for fear of being discovered by him. Naturally, Liam did not speak.

He pushed Grandpa Jim to the room. Rita limped to his right.

Because Grandpa Jim liked the shredded potatoes Rita cooked, she went to the kitchen immediately and was ready to make the chili and sour potato for Grandpa Jim.

Grandpa Jim and Liam were playing Go on the sofa.

Holding a black piece, Grandpa Jim put it on the board and said coldly, "Liam, recently Charlotte has made uproar on the Internet. She admitted her mistake. Have you seen the video?"

Liam’s hand holding the chess piece slightly shook. "Yes."

"What do you think?" Grandpa Jim raised his head and questioned, with his eyes full of irony.

Seeing that Liam was silent, Grandpa Jim sighed, "You, how can I say about you? Why don’t you use your shrewdness in that accident that year?"

Grandpa Jim sighed again in disappointment.

Grandpa Jim always believed that it was not Rita who did it. So he forced Liam to marry her for fear that this silly boy would miss such a good girl.

It was a pity that Rita did not had a good time after marriage.

As Grandpa Jim thought about it, he felt more guilty. He glanced at the the kitchen and rolled his eyes to the opposite Liam. "The Wilson family are responsible. I don't care if you like it or not. You have to make up for her."

"Make up for her with your whole life!"

Grandpa Jim snorted. The piece fell down on the board.

Liam knew that he lost the game, but he was distracted.

Suddenly, something in the kitchen fell to the ground. Then he suddenly realized and looked in the direction of the kitchen.

"Mrs. Wilson, you are bleeding!"

The flustered voice of the servant came. Liam suddenly got up and went to the kitchen.

"Mrs. Wilson, you are bleeding badly and need to be bandaged."

Contrary to the servant’s panic, Rita was indifferent. "I’m OK. This small wound was nothing."

She took a tissue and wiped the blood off her fingers. She reached for the knife again.

But next second, the wrist was caught by a pair of big hands.

"You need to take care of the wound."

Liam looked at her bleeding fingers and he frowned.

"It's just a minor injury. We don't need to make a big deal out of it."

Rita ignored his urge and pulled her hand back. But he grabbed it too tightly so that she couldn't pull it back.

Instead, Liam grabbed her hand more tightly. Next second, she was pulled out by him.

"Liam... What are you doing?" Rita frowned and gritted his teeth. "Let me go. Let me go!"

"Liam?" But no matter how she struggled, the man pulled her out of the kitchen.

Then, she was forced to sit on the sofa.

"Give me your hand."

Overhead again came his commanding voice. Rita frowned again. She looked sideways to resist.

"Don't let me say it three times. Give me your hand!"

Seeing her not move, Liam narrowed his eyes. Immediately the oppressive feeling in the living room went rampant.

Seeing Liam’s cold expression, the servants around him suddenly tensed their nerves. They were so scared that they didn't dare to breathe.

And at the moment, Rita looked at his darken face. Unexpectedly she was not afraid but frowned again.

‘Why should you be that harsh? Why should I cooperate with you?’

Although she was dissatisfied with him, she glanced at Grandpa Jim, who was just looking at them. Her hand stretched out.

‘For grandpa!’

Looking at her bleeding hand, he quickly found out the disinfectant alcohol from the medicine box.

Before smearing alcohol on her fingers, he paused and looked at her little fair face. "It may hurt a little. Bear it."

"Well."

Rita nodded. Liam gently wiped her wound with alcohol cotton.

Although she had been prepared already, when the stimulating alcohol touched the wound, the tingling still made she shiver and then tensed.

Seeing this, Liam immediately loosened the alcohol cotton in his hand.

Seeing that she spread her eyebrows, he just pulled his eyes back, took the bandage expressionlessly and gently stuck it on her wound.

"All right."

Rita took her hand back and lowered her head and pursed her mouth. "Thank you...You can go on with Go, I'll make shredded potatoes."

With that, she was about to get up.

Next second, she was pressed on the sofa again.

"Don't touch the knife."

She frowned. "But I haven't made the dish for grandpa."

"Lily can do it, too." "Lily can't make the unique flavor."

"You teach her! Or she will be fired! "

They did not give in and talked. Seeing this, Grandpa Jim smiled.

He spread the eyebrows. His eyes fell on the chess piece in front of him. "Liam, you like to control everything. I'm afraid you're going to fail this time."

Maybe he was so happy that he coughed excitedly.

Because of the severe cough, he was unable to breathe so that the loving face was red.

In an instant, two people who bickered on the other side look at Grandpa Jim.

"Grandpa, are you ok?" Rita patted him on the back with her little hand, trying to relieve his pain.

He coughed badly and quickly covered his mouth with a handkerchief.

Suddenly, blood came from his throat. Then he coughed again. He felt a warm liquid coming out and quickly wiped his mouth with his handkerchief. Then he held it tightly and hid it behind him. “Don't worry. It was nothing important.”

However, both Rita and Liam saw it.

They looked at each other for a while, and their faces looked bad.

In order to make Grandpa Jim happy, they didn't expose him.

Instead, they accompanied him to have lunch. Then finding a reason for review, they took him to the hospital for examination, and took the opportunity to arrange for him to be hospitalized.

After a busy day, after Grandpa Jim fell asleep, Rita and Liam went back to their wedding room.

Because of grandfather's illness, both of them felt very heavy-hearted. Along the way, they seldom spoke and were silent.

They got off the car. Rita walked tiredly to the villa.

But at a few steps, a pair of high-heeled shoes with square head appeared in the sight.

She stopped, then suddenly looked up at the owner of the high-heeled shoes. She saw a charming and clever face.

Looking at the woman's face that looked like Joey, she was tensed and paled.

"Hello, Rita." The woman nodded politely at her.

Rita took back her thoughts. When she looked at the woman opposite her, she had mixing feelings.

‘Why did this woman come back earlier? Isn't she supposed to be back in a year! Is it because she has changed something and has caused a series of changes, Nora, Liam's fiancee has also returned?

When she was puzzled, the elegant woman passed her and went straight to Liam.

Nora took Liam's arm closely and called sweetly, "Liam ."
