Chapter 45 I Won't Get Divorced
"I didn't block you. Mr. Reed, you're so busy, I've been waiting for you to submit our divorce papers to the court. We've already signed them, but why haven't you submitted them to the court yet?" Nathan muttered something under his breath as if he remembered something.
"Okay, you didn't block me, but I'm asking you, when were you with that man?"
"Mr. Reed, we're divorced. What's the point of asking this?"
"Answer me!" Nathan roared, "The divorce papers haven't been submitted to the court, so I'm still your husband! I have every right to question your relationship with other men!"
Emily also got angry, "Then why don't you go submit the papers today? Anyway, we've already signed the divorce agreement! Finish this quickly, so you can also marry Sophia!" Nathan on the other end of the phone raged, "Is this how you want to leave me?"
"Of course," Emily said firmly, "The sooner, the better."
"What's so good about that man, huh? In the four years you've been married to me, have I mistreated you? No matter what, I didn't dress you so provocatively to flirt on stage and make money!"
Emily chuckled coldly, only now did she realize that Nathan was doing this for this reason.
Olivia also said that yesterday he and Sophia also went to the car show, they should have recognized her.
"Mr. Reed, I have the right to choose my own life, you have no right to interfere."
"Your choice is to dress like that and let so many men take pictures? Emily, you really are vulgar."
Emily burst into laughter instantly, "Vulgar? Yeah, I'm vulgar. I don't have a college degree like Sophia, I can't afford high-end cosmetics, my standards are not high. In order not to embarrass you, please submit the documents to the court this afternoon, okay? No matter how vulgar I am in the future, it has nothing to do with you!"
Nathan hesitated for a long time without saying a word.
"...Emily, are you going crazy today? Wasn't your gentle appearance all an act?"
Emily sneered, "Yeah, of course it was all an act. I'm inherently crazy! You saw it in my father's hospital room last time, if it weren't for you protecting Sophia, I would have wanted to beat that bitch to death right there! Are you satisfied with what I just said?" Nathan said coldly, "I'm not protecting her either. This matter is a bit complicated, I'll explain it to you later..."
"No need to explain, your affairs have nothing to do with me, and I don't want to hear it. See you at the court this afternoon. Nathan, if you're a man, come over, don't make me look down on you!"
Emily decisively hung up the phone.
Emily breathed a long sigh of relief.
It had been a long time since she had vented like this, and it felt really good to be crazy.
Olivia applauded desperately beside her, "Well done, that's how you should confront him! Nathan still thinks he's such a big shot. Does he think all women are dying to marry him?"
Emily panted heavily, grinning, "Arguing is quite exhausting, but I feel so much better now."
"If only you had been so tough earlier, you wouldn't have suffered for four years at the Reed's!" Beep beep beep-
A busy tone came from the phone.
Nathan stared at the black screen of his phone, his teeth almost grinding together.
Emily now had the confidence, and it infuriated him to no end.
Why did she have to divorce him?
What was wrong with him, what did that man have that made Emily disdain him like this?
He angrily threw the phone aside, covering his face with his hands in silent contemplation.
"Nathan," Sophia walked in with a cup of tea, gently sitting down beside him, "Are you arguing with Emily again? Have some water."
Nathan completely ignored her, staying motionless in his original position.
Sophia had been wanting to find a chance to act coquettish with him and smooth things over from yesterday. Seeing him silent, she continued, "Yesterday, I was a bit impulsive. When I heard that another woman was trying to seduce you, I felt heartbroken. It's because love you that I can't tolerate other women lingering around you. I went to the car show to confront you because I was angry, I didn't mean anything else. Considering that I'm still pregnant, can you forgive me this time, please?"
Nathan's tone was distant, "Because you love me, you don't want other women near me?"
"Yes, exactly." Sophia put the water cup aside, tumed to hold Nathan's hand, and coquettishly said, "Women also have possessiveness. You are my man, with such good conditions, handsome and wealthy, how many shameless women want to throw themselves at you. I'm just worried..."
Nathan pushed her away and stood up, looking down at her, "Sophia, don't forget, you were one of those shameless women back then!"
"You..." Sophia was pushed onto the
bed by him. Fortunately, the
mattress was soft enough, so she didn't hit her stomach. However, Nathan's actions still surprised her greatly and she exclaimed in shock and anger, "You pushed me? I'm still carrying your child, and you actually pushed me? You don't care about me, fine, but don't you even care about your own son?"
Nathan stood with his back to her, feeling increasingly frustrated internally, but what could he do?
After all, Sophia was pregnant.
"Sophia, I was just impulsive just now, exerted a bit more force, you... If you're uncomfortable, I'll take you to the hospital."
Sophia pushed away his hand, "Nathan, be honest with me. Yesterday, when you scolded me in front of so many people at the car show, was it because you really had an affair with that car model?" Nathan tried hard to suppress his inner agitation and replied indifferently, "No, you're overthinking."
"If it really wasn't, then show me your phone!"
At the mention of the phone, Nathan couldn't hold back anymore, "Didn't you secretly touch my phone? Put Emily on the block list?"
Sophia instantly felt guilty, avoiding his gaze, "I didn't..."
"My mom wouldn't touch my phone. Besides me, only you could have touched my phone." Nathan said coldly, "And, I'm asking you, what's your connection to Emily's fallopian tube blockage test report?" Sophia raised her chin in defiance, "I've already said it, I went to the doctor just to ask her to take good care of our child! Did Emily say something to you just now?"
"She did, and she was right," Nathan gritted his teeth, his eyes devoid of warmth, "You're just a whore."
