Chapter 120 Divorce (Part One)
''''Mary!''1
"William..." Frank sat up and asked, "Are you angry?"
William stiffened, he felt the urge to resist Frank''s kiss.
"I''m going to look for Mary." Those were the first words out of William''s mouth, without saying
anything for a long time. Then he stood up and walked out of the bedroom.
"William!" Frank immediately grabbed his arm. "Just divorce her!"
William stopped in his tracks and lowered his head without responding.
On the cold autumn night in the streets.
Mary''s mind went nk. She kept running forward aimlessly as if it was the only way to forget
everything she had seen.
It would seem seeing William and Frank together with her own two eyes broke her heart into a
million pieces.
''William, you came back here as soon as you could. You had so many ces to go, but why did you
prefer to show it to me in Kylin International?''
She was drowning in tears as she kept on running. The autumn wind mercilessly brushed across
her face, and it felt like daggers grazing through her skin, but she could barely feel the frosty
autumn wind for she had gone numb.
"Mary! Mary!"
Mary could hear Lucas''s voiceing from behind her, but she ran faster and faster. She didn''t
want anyone to see the mess she was right now.
"Damn it..."
Lucas frowned and sprinted as fast as he could. He didn''t care how red his cheeks were turning
because of the cold.
"Mary!"
Under a dim streetlight, Lucas finally caught up to her. He was out of breath when he grabbed her
arm. "You were running so fast! Where do you even n to go? It''s the middle of the night!
"Let me go..." Mary''s voice was faint. She immediately threw his hands away from her arm. "I just
want to be alone for a while!"
"Mary!" Lucas sounded angry and anxious. He pulled Mary and let her face him. "I know you''re hurt
right now..." "No, I''m not. I''m perfectly fine." Mary shook her head and put on a facade. But Lucas
knew that she was not okay. She looked like she was staring into an endless darkness with no sign
of light.
"Then tell me this... Why would you run away in the middle of the night if you''re fine?" Lucas
scowled.
"I..."
"Mary, I don''t want to say this, but it''s time for you to hear the truth." Lucas grabbed her shoulders
and sighed. "You''re the one who should quit!"
''I''m the one who should quit...''
Lucas''s words resounded in Mary''s ears. Tears welled up in her eyes like an overflowing dam.
"I know, I know..." Mary sobbed, "I already know that... I just can''t..."
Under the lonely streetlight, Lucas witnessed the pain in Mary''s eyes. He couldn''t help but hold her
in his arms, and let her cry every inch of sadness out.
She had already bawled in his arms for the same man two times now.
"You''re going to be okay, Mary." After a while, Lucas gently ran his warm hand across her face to
wipe the tears away. "I know there''s no certainty to what I''ve said, but I don''t want to see you suffer
any longer."
Mary understood how good Lucas was to her.
She raised her head and smiled as best as she could. Then she felt the gentleness of his hands on
her face, and she truly felt his warmth.
''William, your hands are not the only ones that feel so warm in this world.''
"Well, let''s go home first, shall we?" Seeing her smile, Lucas felt relieved.
"No, no... I don''t want to go back," said Mary. She shook her head and tugged on his clothes.
Lucas''s heart skipped a beat. He patted her head and said, "I won''t let you go back to Kylin
International. Do you want to go back to my ce?"
"Okay." Mary nodded. As long as she didn''t have to go back to Kylin International, she would go
anywhere.
Lucas ran to the roadside and hailed a taxi.
Lucas told the driver the name of the hotel he was staying at as soon as they got into the taxi. The
driver nodded and stepped on the gas.
In the taxi, Mary was still sobbing.
"Hey, young man." The driver couldn''t stand it anymore. He looked at Lucas from the rear view
mirror. "Your girlfriend is crying. Why aren''t youforting her?"

"I..." Lucas scratched the back of his head.
"Girl, did this idiot do something bad to you?" the driver asked with concern.
"No, no..." Mary shook her head and chuckled, her vision was still blurred because of the tears.
"It can''t be..." The driver looked at Lucas with suspicion. "Did he force you toe with him? We
can call the police!"
The driver was about to take out his phone.
"No, no, no!" "Sir, do I look like a bad guy to you?" Lucas stopped him at once
"Maybe? It''s better safe than sorry!" The driver looked righteous. "A bad person wouldn''t show any
signs of being evil on his face!"
Lucas raised his finger and froze. His mouth was left slightly open as he shook his head in disbelief.
"Sir," said Mary, wiping her tears and giggling. She exined, "You''re mistaken."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I''m sure." Mary nodded firmly.
It was not until they got out of the car that Lucas felt relieved. "Let''s go, Mary."
"Okay." Mary took a long hard look at the bright hotel in front of her.
"What''s wrong?" Seeing that she wouldn''t move, Lucas quickly asked, "Are you worried that I might
do something to you? Mary, I know I don''t look like a doctor most of the time, but I''m a gentleman.
You have to trust me!"
"I do trust you." Mary smiled to relieve him of worry. "I''m just curious why you live here."
"Well." Lucas breathed a sigh of relief. As he guided her inside, he said, "I don''t n to settle down
here. It''s too troublesome to buy a house. I''d rather live in a hotel. It''s convenient, and they clean up
any mess that I make."
"Oh, I see," answered Mary. "Then I''ll trouble you tonight."
"It doesn''t matter." Lucas stared at her and smiled. ''In fact, you could trouble me a little more,'' he
thought.
When they arrived at Lucas''s suite, he prepared hot water for Mary.
"You should take a bath, rx yourself, and then get some sleep. Everything will be fine in the
morning," said Lucas.
"Okay, thank you." Mary was about to enter the bathroom when she heard a ring. It was Lucas''s
phone.
Mary paused for a moment and stared at Lucas. Her face showed that she wanted to ask him
something.
"Yes, it''s him," Lucas dered.
"Please, don''t tell him I''m here," Mary pleaded.
"Don''t worry." Lucasplied.
As soon as Mary entered the bathroom, she shut the door and burst into tears.
''I might not be able to wait till this year ends, William. Even if I have to break the contract, I don''t
want to keep seeing you and Frank do that kind of thing in front of me!
In this fake marriage, the one who falls in love first would lose.
I lost to you, William.
I hope you will always be happy.''
Ring !
Lucas''s phone didn''t stop ringing. He nced at the bathroom and answered the phone unhurriedly.
"Lucas!"
As soon as he picked up the phone, William roared at the phone, "Why did it take you so long to
answer the phone? ! Where''s Mary? Answer me! Where are you right now? Damn it Lucas, say
something!"
"Are you dressed?" Lucas sneered.
"Lucas..." "I don''t know what''s going on!" William gritted his teeth.
"What a coincidence! I don''t know what happened either," Lucas bantered.
"You... Where are you? Where''s Mary?"
"I don''t know."
"Lucas!" William''s voice was getting louder and angrier. "Are you deliberately mocking me? Do I
sound like I''m joking, Lucas?"
"William," Lucas said firmly. "Don''t mess with Mary any more... Forget it. It''s none of my business."
For the first time in his life, William felt lost. He leaned against the window and repeatedly punched
the wall.
Even at the beginning of his career, he was always full of fighting spirit. He believed that nothing
could defeat him. But now, for the first time, he felt that his life was a failure.
"Mary is with me," Lucas sighed. "She''s not in great condition."
William regained a little hope upon hearing him. "Where are you? I''lle pick her up."
"No," said Lucas. "She doesn''t want to see you, and I won''t tell you where we are. You both need to
calm down."
She didn''t want to see you...
