Chapter 844
When they came to this gathering, Brock was worried that she would not ept his apology and felt
a little nervous. He did not expect her to be so understanding. He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief
and said, "Haha, that''s good. Enjoy the food and drink tonight! If you want to, I''d like to invite you
and Simon to a meal as an apology!"
"Okay!" Emily smiled.
After the rift between them was mended, the atmosphere in the private room became lively.
Although Simon drove here, it was impossible not to drink on such an asion. So he also toasted
others and chatted happily.
Only two people at the table were drinking drinks instead of wine. One was Emily, and the other was
a man wearing sses next to her. The man happened to the same person who sat next to herst
time. She remembered that he had taken the initiative to talk to herst time.
This time, he also smiled at her and began talking about amon topic. "Mrs. Chin, have you
been working recently?"
Emily smiled slightly, but she felt that something warm touched her belly.
She looked down. Under the table, Simon''s big hand reached over from the side and covered her
belly.
"She will be taking care of our baby at home!" In his deep voice, he answered for her.
"..." Emily helplessly put her hand on her forehead.
Well, yes. Anyway, their baby wasing!
She turned her head and saw Simon hold a red wine ss in his slender and jade-like hand. He
had drunk a lot, and this was the third cup of wine. His peach blossom eyes became increasingly
brighter, like sparkling stars in the dark night. His eyes were gazing lovingly into hers.
Emily curled up the corners of her mouth and put her hands on her knees on his big hand.
Just likest time, the man pushed the sses on the bridge of his nose. However, it seemed that
this happy couple''s affectionate move had made him jealous. He silently turned his face and talked
to others instead.
The atmosphere was still very lively. The box was filled with the buzz of conversation and the clear
clinks of the sses.
Suddenly, someone said, "By the way, why didn''t Addye today?"
As Addy was mentioned, everyone was stunned a little and looked around to search for her.
Emily was also stunned. That was right. From the beginning to now, none of them had ever seen
her. They had been studying in Newley City together and were close friends for many years.
Subconsciously, Brock turned to see Emily. When he was sure that she was not unhappy, he said
slowly, "She is going to divorce soon, don''t you know?"
Emily was stunned.
Like a tossed stone raising a thousand ripples, the news of her divorce provoked many discussions.
"Really? Don''t spread fake news like this. How long has it been since she got married? I remember
it wasst month when I received the wedding candies from her!"N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
"Yes, it seems that she made a wedding trip to Moldaves. They flew directly there the day they got
their marriage certificates. How romantic it was! There is also a wedding photo in the wedding
candy box. Her husband seems to be a handsome gentleman. They are a perfect match!" ? ? ?
All the people started to argue against Brock because they did not believe the news.
Emily frowned, and she also could not believe it. Not long ago, when she and Simon visited her in
the hospital, they happened to see Simon, her husband, begging for her forgiveness with tears. He
asked her for a chance to reform and promised that he would lead a good life with her in the
future...
"I did not make it up. It''s absolutely true!" Brock felt wronged and hurried to prove what he said was
true. "Did you forget what my mother do? Thew firm that she works in deals with divorce cases
mainly. When I went to see my mother that day, I met her. She was handing in the materials and
was ready to find awyer to draw up the divorce agreement for her! All of these were told by her
personally. Can the news be false?"
All of a sudden, everyone was silent.
On the way back, the designated driver was sitting in the driver''s seat while Emily and the drunk
Simon were sitting in the back seats.
Outside the car windows, neon lights shed in the darkness. In the car, everyone was silent.
Simon''s peach blossom eyes were looking ahead. There was a shadow between his straight nose
and thin lips. Under the half-glimpsed light, he silently sat there, like a gorgeous sculpture.
His hand held hers. Emily gently shook it and put her head on his shoulder. "Simon, are you thinking
about the news about Miss Swan?"
"Mn." Simon pulled his lips. He did not want to conceal anything from her.
The news Brock threw out at the table bombed in their hearts and silenced them.
"ording to what Brock said, it must be true. But I have never expected her to get a divorce..."
Emily bit her lips and muttered to herself. She was told that her husband had beaten her a few
times. As a kind and considerate woman, Emily had always been worried about her marriage.
After thinking for a while, she looked up and said, "Are you free tomorrow? Why don''t we invite her
out and have a talk?"
"That''s good!" Simon nodded.
The next day at noon, they were having lunch in a restaurant near the TV station.
When Emily and Simon arrived, Addy was already there. Last time, when she invited them to a
meal and told them that she was getting married soon, she also arrived early. She was sitting by the
window with a cup of hot tea in front of her. However, there was a zed look in her eyes fixed on
the cup.
"Addy!"
Simon pulled out a chair for Emily, and they sat down.
Addy looked up with a forced smile. "Simon, Miss Sam, you are here! I haven''t yet ordered the
dishes. Please do it for me!"
The waiter was called over and brought them the menu.
No one was in the mood to eat. They just hurriedly ordered a few dishes and let the waiter leave.
Simon frowned and looked Addy on the other side of the table. "Are you going to divorce?"
"How did you..." Addy was surprised, but soon she understood. "Brock told you at the gatheringst
night, didn''t he?"
She was also invited to attend the gathering, but she was not in a good state recently, so she
refused. Since she was not there, someone must have thought of her and mentioned this matter.
"Yes!" Emily nodded and asked uncertainly, "Miss Swan, are you really going to divorce?"
"Yes..." Addy also nodded.
Under the gazes of them, Addy raised her hands and tucked her long hair behind her ears. There
were two crossed adhesive bandages on her cheekbones. It seemed to be a new wound, and the
previous redness and swelling had already vanished.
Emily''s eyes widened.
Simon violently put down the ss in his hand and said in a harsh voice, "He hit you again!"
Addy nodded, and her beautiful almond eyes gradually turned red. She sobbed and said, "He
promisedst time that he would never drink again and would live a good life with me, but he drank
against week and punched me... I waspletely disappointed with him, and I didn''t want to give
him any more chances. It''s terrifying and depressed to continue this marriage. I have to end this
rtionship as soon as possible!"
"I''ve already told him that I want a divorce. And mywyer has drafted the divorced agreement!"
Emily nodded and said nothing.
After a long time of silence, Simon said with gloominess in his peach blossom eyes, "If there is
anything you need,e to me at any time!"
