All Chapters of She Asked For A Divorce, He Panicked: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The doctor who was looking after Bernice was still here. Remi saw him and raised her chin to Lacy. "Don't buy it? You should ask him yourself.”"Well..." The doctor let out a sigh and shrugged. "ECT has worked for people with depression in the past. Helps some people get over trauma.”Lacy answered, "Let's do it then." Bernice woke up right that moment, "No!" Her voice broke, and tears filled her eyes. "I don't care if it hurts me. I want to remember how painful it was to lose my family forever!" "Really?" Remi smiled. "You can hear us?" "Bits and pieces..." Bernice choked between her sobs. Then she stared Remi straight in the eye, her eyes burning. "I know you don't like me, but this? Taking away my memories? Do you think that will hide what you did? I never wanted to blame you, but you know why I'm here! You did this! And now you want to fry my brain to make me forget? That's just wrong!" Remi rolled her eyes and threw the medical report on Bernice’s bed, where the pages fle

Theo’s hard face softened when he heard her talk. "I've been a fool," he said, sounding sorry. "I couldn't keep my grandson in check. You must be in a lot of pain if you're resigning from the company and getting a divorce. This check is my way of saying I'm sorry for being rude to you. Start a business, open a store, do whatever you want." She wasn't ready for his unexpected honesty. She looked at the huge number on the check and thought for a while. Theo pushed it into her hand. "Take this, and you're done with us. I'll tell everyone to stop looking at you. You will be free.”The study door suddenly opened. Lacy burst in, holding Ian in his arms. His expression was as dark as a thundercloud. "Well, Remi. You got your hands on that nice cheque, didn't you? He smiled. "That's pretty rich of you to call me out when you're just as bad. Who is the actual serpent in this marriage?”"Dad was right about you!" Ian pointed at her. "Gold digger! You don't deserve him! I don't like you as m

Remi’s lips curled into a mocking smile. "Doesn't it hurt? You were so close to being married to her.” Lacy’s eyes were as cold and venomous as he gazed at her. "You know damn well why we didn't get together! You're the one to blame, but here you are, trying to blame others.” Remi laughed in a dry way. "Keep lying. But you know the truth deep within. Your mom wrecked your wedding plans long before we even hooked up!” She took a deep breath, and her voice was full of annoyance. "And now? I'm getting out of the way for you. Simply marry the person you love. What is stopping you? Don't tell me you're having second thoughts.”Lacy stopped moving. Those hashtags that are popular right now? He didn't think about losing Bernice at first. No, he couldn't believe how far Remi would go to get rid of him. He couldn't believe that she still only wanted to leave him. He said on purpose to get her angry, "I have loved Bernice for so many years. It's going to be real if I want to marry her. But yo

Remi pushed Lacy’s hand away and looked back and forth between the two men. She breathed in deeply and pointed to the door. "Get the hell out, both of you!" Lacy couldn't believe it and pointed at himself with wide eyes. "Do you want me to leave too?" "Of course, you're the first to go!" Remi shot back. “And you? You got Bernice involved in this mess and made her go online. You haven't even paid me back for that yet, and now you're kicking me out?“ Lacy yelled In anger. Finn said, being rude. "Are you still simping for another girl? If I was Remi, I would've kicked your ass to the curb a long time ago." "Shut up!" Lacy lost it and turned on Finn with a stare that could kill. "You come here dressed like that and bother someone else's wife... Where's your shame? Leave right away! This is our business, not yours." "Mr. Web, I'll leave," Finn responded with a sneer that made him look like he was making fun of him. “Nose broken, shirt missing. What do you suppose the press will say

Enzo said, "You know what you're doing." "You want both the game and to make Remi look bad. You're just trying to control her. Well, you can't have it both ways. You will never get the Game Fest!”"Five hundred million dollars." Finn put up three fingers. "Once our tech team checks everything and clears your name, I'll pay for everything myself, and we'll also do the first marketing campaign right." Lacy smiled. "Trying to be a hero with only 500 million dollars? The Web Group doesn't care about that. I'll double it." Everyone in the room gasped at the same time. Most of the people who came were indie developers looking for tiny amounts of money. These figures were too many for them to handle. Finn stayed calm and kept boosting his offer. Lacy easily matched him. The bids went up to $600 million.Enzo, who had always been interested in technology, had never heard people talk about such large amounts of money so casually. He hated Lacy, but he had to think about what was best for h
