Chapter 45 Nathanâs mother fell silent.
Victoria tried to comfort her, âAuntie, donât be angry. Actually, things are fine this way. Although Iâm not Nathanâs legal wife, in my heart, heâs the man I want to spend my whole life with. I will love him and take care of him for a lifetime. That certificate is. just a piece of paper to us.â
Nathan gave Victoria a glance, his expression complex and dark.
Nathanâs mother seemed to relax a bit. âTrue, the way you and Nathan care for each other now, itâs no different from being a real couple. As for that Isabella, if she wants to act out, let her. Who cares about her? Are we supposed to beg her to come back?
Thatâs out of the question. Itâs better if she just dies out there.â
But things didnât go as expected.
Just as Victoria was enjoying her time with the Hill family, the wide open front door was suddenly blocked by a delicate figure. A shadow cast on the floor, and a crisp voice echoed through the room.
âOh, look at what I see. The person who shouldnât be here is here, while the one who should be here is missing.â
Nathan suddenly heard the familiar voice, and a trace of shock appeared in his eyes. He quickly looked up, following the sound.
15:12 M Chapter 45 1280 Vouchers He saw Ava walking toward them with light steps.
Victoria nearly ground her teeth in anger. âAva, how did you turn into someone rude like your sister?â
Ava smiled back, not angry but mocking. âDo you have any manners? You and your brotherâinâlaw secretly have an affair- this is your sense of propriety?â
For two years, Ava and Isabella had relied on each other. She had felt Isabellaâs loneliness and witnessed the harm caused by betrayal from close family members.
Isabellaâs success came at a price that was a hundred times, even a thousand times harder than what ordinary people could endure.
Now, having grown with sound values and a sense of right and wrong, Ava harbored even more hatred for Nathan and Victoria.
Nathan, enraged by Avaâs rude behavior, stood up in a flash, lifting his hand as if to strike her. âAva...â
But his action was nothing more than a show. Under Avaâs mocking gaze, his hand lowered involuntarily.
âWhereâs Isabella? Did she come back to the country with you?â Nathan glanced behind Ava, only to see nothing but emptiness.
His eyes dimmed immediately.
Nathanâs mother was displeased. âHmph, she still knows how to come back? I thought she had died out there.â
Avaâs delicate face turned pale, and her hand holding the documents tightened.
Chapter 45 1289 Mouchers She couldnât imagine how Isabella must have felt, enduring the cold words from Nathanâs mother regularly. It was a humiliation It was a humiliation that was hard to bear. No wonder Isabellaâs body reacted. whenever she heard news from the capitalâher fingers would tremble violently.
âIâm here to deliver some documents.â Ava spoke, handing over the divorce papers to Nathan, and turned to leave.
Nathan wanted to chase after her, but Nathanâs mother stopped him. âNathan, what are you doing? Are you really going to bring that disgraceful woman back? Hmph, sheâs throwing a tantrum. You canât spoil her. If you do, sheâll keep taking advantage of you. I want to see what she can do now that we, the Hill family, donât want her back.â
Ava, hearing her words, shook her head helplessly..
Unable to hold back, she turned around to defend her sister, âNathan, when did Isabella ever get spoiled by you?â
âAnd donât delude yourself into thinking that Nathan is some unreachable man. My sister would never play any catâand- mouse games with him. The truth is, she really wants to get rid of him.â
