Rebecca rejected the call and sat down next to Lauren, escorted by the juniors.

No one mentioned her leg, as if they hadn't noticed it at all. But she knew that for a dancer, a leg problem was incredibly conspicuous. No one could miss it.

The only explanation was that Lauren had given everyone a heads-up in advance. Regardless, in this small waiting room, she received the greatest kindness from strangers that she had experienced in five years.

Her phone kept vibrating in her bag, so she simpl

  • Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford   Chapter 420

    "That's not true. Don't talk about Izzy like that," Lucas said quickly, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed. "I asked her to manage the money. I'm terrible at it. She's been handling it since we started dating. How is that embarrassing? Izzy says taking care of the family is a good quality. Sometimes, I do want to stay out longer with the guys, but when she reminds me to come home, it's because she wants to spend time with me."He paused and added, "I'm busy with work all day and don't have much time for her. Staying out after work makes it even less. Her reminding me is completely normal. I may complain sometimes, but Izzy isn't wrong. When I'm out having fun, I actually feel uneasy and keep thinking about her. As for legitimate expenses like paying for client dinners, even if she gets the notification, she won't complain. Says she has the right to know because she loves me. If a woman doesn't care at all about what her man does, that means she doesn't love him anymore."Cathe

    Aiden did explode, but his curses were directed at Catherine."I thought something serious had happened. I told you not to contact me lately. Are you deaf?" he spat. "Get the hell out! I'm busy!"He hung up, and Catherine's hand shook with rage.Lucas couldn't bear to watch it. He sighed heavily. "Forget it, Cathy. Just leave."What else could she do? Waiting for the police to drag her out?"Just you wait! And Aiden, too!" she spat, her eyes blazing with pure hatred. "None of you will have a good ending!"She walked out with her head held high. Lucas carried the suitcase for her.Sonia locked the door. Behind her, two moving workers carried the last two boxes.They waited for the elevator together. When it arrived, Sonia stepped in, but obviously, Catherine refused to ride with her.Sonia looked at Lucas and said, "I'll go first. You know what to do. Don't make Isabelle come ask me what happened.""I didn't..." he started to explain, but the doors closed. He shouted desperate

    Sonia gave a cold snort but didn't object.Lucas urged Catherine gently, "Hurry up and pack. They need to get back to work soon."She cursed him silently, but with Sonia and the movers standing there like grim reapers, she had no choice but to start packing.She didn't care much about the documents. Her eyes were only on jewelry, luxury bags, and expensive clothes. She stuffed them all into boxes, but Sonia demanded to inspect them."Take all of that out!" Sonia pointed at everything except the documents. "You can keep the clothes you've already worn. They're dirty anyway."Catherine threw herself over the boxes as if her life depended on it. She screamed hysterically, "These are all things! Don't you dare touch them! They're all mine!""Yours?" Sonia tossed a bank statement in front of her. "Look carefully. These are the recent transactions from Aiden's card. How was the money spent? How much was transferred to you? It's all clear. If you want to prove these things are yours, sh

    Catherine's tearful, nasal voice drifted out. "Lucas, have you come to rescue me? I knew it. You're the only good one. The other two are so awful!"She opened the door and froze. Outside, Lucas was standing beside Sonia, with a dozen burly men behind them."Lucas..." she whined, disregarding everything."Cathy, I..." Lucas faltered.He knew Isabelle disliked Catherine, and he also knew there had always been something ambiguous between Vance and Catherine.But he had been best friends with both of them for years. People's sense of right and wrong could be double-standard. No matter what, the four of them had shared many years of friendship. Coming here in person to evict her still made him feel terrible.His understanding of their relationships was still stuck in the past. He had no idea how drastically the other three had changed, even dismissing Aiden's threat to cut ties as mere angry words.He didn't realize they could never go back.Catherine covered her face. Tears streame

    The court security finally came out and stopped the brawl.Sonia's iron rod was taken away by the officers. Her hair was disheveled, and she was trembling all over. Across from her, Aiden was being held back by security.Aiden glared at her with pure hatred. "I don't think I ever treated you badly. How can you be so vicious?"Sonia steadied her breathing, unwilling to waste time on him. When one refused to listen, no amount of talking would change their mind. It was better to let them believe whatever he wanted.She was done wasting energy on toxic people and toxic feelings."Don't regret this!" he spat, then turned his hateful gaze on Lucas. "Our friendship ends here!"Lucas was flabbergasted. "We went through thick and thin together, and you're discarding it like that? We've been friends with both you and Sonia for so many years. Do you really want to end things like this?"Isabelle grabbed his ear and dragged him away. "Who is your friend? You can only pick one! If you choose

    So, Aiden stopped fighting.He agreed to the divorce and gave Sonia full custody of their son. He also agreed to recover the marital assets he had given Catherine.In addition, he would pay generous child support in one lump sum. Finally, he offered Sonia a settlement taken from the money he had "gifted" to his parents.Of course, those gifts had been nothing but asset transfers.Sonia's only real goal had been to get the divorce and escape this scumbag. She was willing to walk away with nothing. Now that she had achieved her goal and even gained a little more, she was already satisfied.She only hoped the judge would grant the divorce and not reject it on the first try. Fortunately, both she and Aiden were resolute about ending the marriage, so the process went smoothly.She had finally cut ties with that rotten man.When she walked out of the courthouse, she still felt dazed. If Isabelle hadn't been holding her up, her legs might have buckled.Isabelle had asked Lucas to come

    "Really?" Kaitlyn's face brightened instantly. "When? I'll help with everything.""It's still early. I think it'll be in August," Rebecca replied."With me here, you won't have to worry about a thing," Kaitlyn beamed. "Don't even stress about the expenses; I'll cover them. This is wonderful, Rebec

    "Yeah, I've only ever seen them online. I'll buy a set, and we can test it together," Rebecca said, excitement bubbling in her voice. "And once it's set up, I can take you traveling whenever we want. No more worrying about the flowers drying out or bothering the neighbors to water them.""But..." J

    Rebecca's bag was kept in a locker. She didn't even know if he had called her afterward. But even if she had known, she wouldn't have answered.Now Vance looked rattled.
