You Had This Divorce Coming Chapter 578
Lucille's voice rose before she could stop herself. "Who are you? Why are you doing this?"Whoever was on the other end of the line seemed delighted by Lucille's alarm.Their sharp laughter grew even more unrestrained. "Who I am doesn't matter. What matters is that you'd better pray your friend pulls through."Oh, and one more thing. Remind your friends to watch their step when they go out. Who'll be the next unlucky one? Stay tuned. Hahaha..."After another burst of wild laughter, the caller hung up without another word, leaving only the cold drone of the dial tone.Lucille couldn't stop herself from trembling. Her face drained of color as she looked at Gwen, Otto, and Charles beside her."Lucy, who was that? Did something happen to Walter?" Gwen asked urgently, sensing that something was wrong.Lucille drew a deep breath and forced herself to remain calm. "It was a stranger. He said Walter was in a car accident, a pileup.""What?!" the three cried in unison."He also said th

Lucille hung up and rolled down the car window.The warm early-summer breeze swept into the car and stirred the loose strands of hair against her collarbone. Some of the gloom that had weighed on her for so long seemed to ease with it.By the time she arrived at Moonlit Terrace's open-air rooftop deck, Gwen had already claimed a table in the farthest corner.The moment she spotted Lucille, she waved wildly from across the terrace. "Lucy! Over here!"Lucille smiled and walked over. She had barely taken her seat when Charles and Otto appeared side by side at the entrance.Both were dressed casually.Charles wore a smoke-gray silk shirt with sharply tailored black wide-leg trousers. He had left the top two buttons undone, which emphasized his tall, lean frame.Meanwhile, Otto wore an off-white linen T-shirt, khaki straight-leg pants, and white sneakers. The evening lights cast a warm golden glow over him and lent him an air of quiet refinement and restraint.One was cool and aloof

Gideon's face flushed, then paled at Lucille's blunt words.His voice dropped low. "I never intended to marry Wanda. Even after the divorce, I won't consider remarriage anytime soon. You can rest assured of that."I really am tired. Since you refuse to look back, let's stop wearing each other down and simply let go. Both of us."I agree to every condition in your divorce settlement. I'll give you every bit of compensation you're owed. As for the supplementary agreement I asked for, if you truly refuse to sign it, then forget it."I've given in. Isn't that enough now, Lucille?"Lucille could not help raising her eyes and casting Gideon a cold, sidelong glance.He stood where he was, his face worn and weary. His once impeccably pressed suit was now creased in places. He looked as though he had aged years, with none of the confident vigor he once carried.Well, this was rare. He had finally spoken plainly. He was no longer splitting hairs with Lucille over the wording of the agreem

This time, Gideon kept his word and moved quickly.The very next day, his lawyer notified Lucille to proceed with the share and property transfers.Before long, Lily's name was attached to a 1% nominal stake in the Prescott Group, along with the deed to Blossom Court, which had once been Gideon and Lucille's marital home.However, because Lily was still so young, the 1% stake was temporarily registered under Lucille's name and held in trust on Lily's behalf, with the agreement that ownership would transfer fully to Lily once she came of age.…By the time Lucille finally had the deed in hand and every formality had been completed, a full week had passed.She had just walked out of the property transaction hall when she spotted Gideon standing at the entrance, waiting for her in silence.Lucille walked toward him, her expression cold.Bright summer light fell over her. Her dark hair, longer now than it had been before, hung loose past her collarbone.She wore a white blazer ove

Rayne refused to accept that. It seemed the time had come to play her trump card.She stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, her lashes fluttering as she pulled out her phone and dialed a number.The call connected almost immediately.A man's deep, rough voice came through, tinged with coarseness. "Well, well, sweetheart. This is a surprise. You're actually calling me on your own for once?"Rayne suppressed the darkness churning inside her and kept her voice steady. "How's my son doing? Is he settling in all right over there?"The man burst into rough laughter. "He's doing great! I've got three nannies looking after him. He's getting the best formula money can buy, along with top-of-the-line toys and clothes from the best brands!"Rayne, I never expected your belly to come through for me like that and give me such a big, healthy boy! Whatever you need from me, just say the word. I'll pull the stars down from the sky for you."The man on the other end of the line was Kyler Sul

Gideon froze for a beat, then shoved the woman away hard.It was Rayne. She lifted her head and looked at him, her eyes brimming with tears.Just as Gideon was about to snap at her, she thrust both arms out in front of him, revealing bruises of every size scattered across them.Whatever fury had risen in Gideon's chest lodged in his throat. When he finally spoke, his voice came out dry and hoarse. "How did this happen?"Rayne choked back a sob, accusation thick in her voice. "Lucille deliberately brought in a gang of women who'd just turned 18 and had them torture Michelle and me like this!"Gideon's first instinct was disbelief. "That's impossible. Lucille wouldn't go that far."Rayne's tears spilled over, her eyes filled with wounded grief. "Even now, you're still defending her! Those women admitted it themselves. Lucille was the one who paid them to come in and humiliate us!"Giddy! Please, just divorce Lucille already! If this keeps up, she's going to be the death of every o

Grace rushed out of the room in a panic and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Earthquake? Was that an earthquake?"Nancy ran out as well, clutching the crying baby. She had heard the crash, panicked, and bolted for the door barefoot, her handbag still in her hand. She had not even stopped to put on

Inside the banquet hall, Lucille kept her eyes fixed on Gideon.He looked flushed and in high spirits as he moved from table to table with Rayne, raising his glass and offering toasts. "My buddy Otto is overseas right now on a confidential infrastructure project. He won't be back for a year, so I'l

Holding her swaddled daughter, Lucille Sandwell kept her voice steady, though a hint of hope slipped through. "Gideon, today is our daughter's one-month milestone. Can you come pick us up?"On the other end, Gideon Prescott's voice remained even and unreadable. "Something came up. I'll have the driv
