All Chapters of Countdown to My Divorce: Chapter 371 - Chapter 380

Arsen was stunned by the sudden question. He had to pause for a moment before replying, his tone cautious. "Mrs. Lewis, you shouldn't need to ask me this question. You probably know the answer to it. Pardon me, but I have to get back to work."With that, Arsen hung up.Samantha stood rooted to the ground, her face sullen. She tightened her grip over the phone, veins bulging in the back of her hand. Mrs. Judd approached her and patted her gently on her shoulder."How are things between you and William as of late? What do you mean, Rachel's returning and whether William will reconcile with her? Aren't you the woman he loves?"Samantha was running out of time to explain things to her mom. There was no way she could make things clear to her mom, anyway. Her mom would never understand."Alright now, Mom. Let me deal with my problems. All you need to do right now is to give me the money to put out the fire."Mrs. Judd owed everything she had today to her daughter. Naturally, she wo

A thought suddenly came to William's mind."Any news from the Lloyds as of late?" he pressed further."The Lloyds will be holding their shareholders' meeting tomorrow," Arsen said. "Seems like it'll be about the distribution of their family assets."William rubbed his chin, his voice lower than usual. "If that's the case, Rachel will be there for sure. Have the lawyer pick up speed. Get me out of here as fast as he can!"Let's see how Rachel can hide from him!"Yes, sir," Arsen said with a nod."As for that overseas project… Even before I was stuck here, I kept reminding you to follow up closely on it! Use company funds to cover the gaps if need be!""But sir, Mrs. Lewis diverted some company funds for her investments. She can't pull them out just yet."Veins popped on William's forehead. He punched the table hard, a storm brewing in his eyes. "Where's the money?! Make her cough it out! How dare she ruin such a major project! Where is she?""Driven by the pressure the shareh

"Exactly!" another shareholder said. "You're much too ambitious! The Lloyds took care of you for so long, and Mrs. Lloyd practically raised you single-handedly. She certainly never expected you to turn out this way!"The others began to chime in as well."You're wicked through and through! Mr. Lloyd is still in the hospital, likely unaware of what's happening. You're his adopted daughter, but you neglected your duty of taking care of him. Not just that—you went missing for five years, but now, you're back to get his money. You're malicious!" "Listen, Rachel Lloyd. As an old-timer of the company, I advise you to leave right now if you know what's good for you. If you don't, we'll pull out the evidence and expose you for all your malice! You'll only end up humiliated.""It'll be better for you to leave of your own accord before things get messy here."Instead of panicking or looking awkward, Rachel crossed her legs and swept a haughty glance across the room."If that's the game yo

William rushed all the way here the moment he left the police station, with no time for a fresh set of clothes. It was clear for all to see that he hadn't had a good time locked up in there the past few days, what with his stubble and the dark circles under his eyes.He looked worlds apart from his usual peppy, clean-shaven look.In fact, he looked so down-and-out and miserable, he felt like a complete stranger to Rachel.She remained unperturbed at the sight of William, her eyes ever so cold and distant.Ever since she disappeared, William did nothing for her, although she didn't expect much from him in the first place.The moment she set her mind on leaving, she had drawn a clear line between them.Yet, she never expected the divorce papers she left behind to bring her trouble.Seeing William stepping forward to testify against Rachel, Yvette smiled smugly.She walked toward Rachel and said sympathetically, "Oh, Rachel! What exactly is going on between you and William? You tw

William cast Rachel a sideways glance and sneered. "Scared so quickly?"Yvette thought William really had leverage over Rachel. Confident, she approached Rachel."Rachel, just admit your mistake," she said with feigned kindness. "Don't worry, you're familiar with everyone here. Although you were disrespectful and arrogant just now, I trust that everyone here will forgive you.""Yes, Rachel. We're family. You should be considerate and respect all your seniors here. Stop causing trouble for everyone, alright?" Sasha chimed in. With that, she shot the two bodyguards a look."Please take her out of here."The bodyguards flanked Rachel on both sides and grabbed her arms."Pardon us, Ms. Rachel."Rachel started struggling against their hold, refusing to be escorted from the room."Let me go! William, show us the evidence if you even have it!"Samantha stepped forward, wearing her usual pure and innocent appearance, her tone full of compassion. "Rachel, you fooled William and d
