Lahat ng Kabanata ng Countdown to My Divorce: Kabanata 251 - Kabanata 260

"Alright, I said it's fine, so it's fine. Just sign the papers. If everything looks good, you can move in within the next couple of days. I've already booked the movers for you," Rachel said.Cecilia was so excited she nearly swore out loud. "Rachel, meeting you must be the result of all the good karma I built up in my previous life!" She hugged Rachel tightly and grinned from ear to ear. "I've never lived in such a nice place in my entire life!"Rachel patted her shoulder lightly."Alright, just settle in and treat this as your home. The lease is for five years, so that means you won't need to worry about house-hunting again for a while. And nobody will raise the rent either!"Cecilia was so overwhelmed she nearly screamed. "Oh my goodness! How did I get so lucky to have a friend like you? I'm seriously over the moon!"Rachel handed over all the paperwork.Noticing how Rachel was in a hurry, Cecilia asked curiously, "You've been super busy these days. What exactly have you been

Rachel turned and said to William, "Honestly, there's no need to go through all this trouble. We're already together now, so it's really not necessary."What she really meant was there was no need for William to keep putting on this act. His performance didn't come across as romantic at all. If anything, it felt nauseating.But William just chuckled and affectionately ruffled her hair."Silly girl, how could it be trouble? I want us to look back on these memories when we're old and gray. It'll be something worth remembering."Rachel couldn't help the bitter sarcasm rising in her chest as she looked at William's face. He still looked as gentle and affectionate as always. He was looking at her with patient, loving eyes.But to her, it all felt unfamiliar now.She wanted to ask him, when he said 'old and gray', wasn't he really thinking of Samantha? Someday, they would grow old together and watch videos like this, reminiscing about their love story.Since William seemed so committe

Rachel's face turned even paler as she listened to their comments. At that moment, the only thing she felt genuinely thankful for was that she hadn't planned on having a child in the past few years.Otherwise, she could already imagine how miserable her life would have been.Holding a newborn in her arms while watching her husband, the father of her child, accompany another woman to prenatal checkups. She and her child, like abandoned strays, would have to face long, lonely nights on their own.For women, having a child meant acquiring a weakness.But being alone and childless meant she could walk away at any time, get a divorce, and start a brand new life. That thought alone helped her breathe a little easier.William had clearly overheard the waiters' remarks just now. He frowned and turned to Rachel. "Are you pregnant?"Rachel had initially planned to say no, but for some reason, she found herself wanting to test him. She wanted to see how William would react to the possibilit

"The lady asked me to let you know that she'd left. She also told you to drive safely on your way home," the waiter replied respectfully.William's eyes turned dim. It looked like he was processing something. Then, without another word, he turned and walked straight out of the restaurant.-Rachel had just gotten into a cab. After giving the driver the address, she quickly texted Cecilia and asked her to help cover for her a little.Cecilia still sounded concerned.[Rachel, I think this is too risky. What if someone finds out? And you're spending every night under the same roof as Mr. Hunt…]She didn't finish the rest of the sentence. She figured Rachel would get the message without her spelling it out.Rachel didn't feel worried. She rolled down the car window slightly to let the night air clear her head as she typed a reply.[Remember what I told you earlier? I did all that and he still didn't react. I think it's safe enough.]Besides, for some reason, she just didn't believ

"You have two options. Either crash in the guest room next door or drive my car home," Tyler said."You mean that limited edition one?" Rachel asked reflexively."Yeah. That's the one I drove here. I don't usually stay at this place, so the other cars aren't here."For a moment, Rachel was touched that Tyler was actually willing to let her drive such an expensive car.But the next second, Tyler pulled open the bathroom door and casually remarked, "But you'll have to come back tomorrow morning to pick me up. It's hard to get a cab from here in the morning."The door shut with a soft click.Rachel covered her face with both hands. It felt like the world was collapsing.Maybe she should just drive over tomorrow night. But with how paranoid William had become lately, who knew if he'd tampered with her car?No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't think of a proper solution.The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Without realizing it, Rachel's gaze drifted toward th
