Chapter 320
Chapter 320
Santon was afraid that Roselyn would bump into the door when they entered the shop, so he carefully protected Roselyn. After entering the door, Santon was even more considerate as he helped Roselyn to sit on the sofa because he was afraid that she would slip on the clean floor.
Noticing how gentle and considerate Santon was, Liana was extremely jealous and sad.
Liana looked away and wiped off the tears.
Liana looked at Audrey awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, Audrey."
"It doesn't matter!" Audrey did not like to pry into the private life of others or mock others because of this.
Liana looked at Santon and Roselyn in the distance and put on a self-deprecating smile.
"When I dated Santon, we loved each other. He was also gentle and considerate, but...I don't have a child. His family became more and more displeased with me, and he became more and more indifferent to me. We quarreled many times. Now..."
They had now become strangers.
Audrey could tell that Liana and Santon's marriage had come to this point because they had no child.
Audrey probed, "Ms. Liana, may I ask whether you have been to the hospital?"
Audrey didn't ask more, but Liana knew what she meant.
Liana bit her lips and said, "Yes! I went to the hospital for a checkup many times, but the results are normal. However, the doctor said..."
"What?"
Liana let out a sigh and continued, "When I was twenty-four, I wanted to have a child. We didn't take any contraceptive methods back then, and then I was pregnant. However, because I had an ectopic pregnancy, I had to cut off one fallopian tube. The doctor said that although I'm healthy, the probability of pregnancy would be very small because of salpingectomy."
The ectopic pregnancy? Salpingectomy?
Audrey subconsciously trembled. The wound on the left side of her abdomen had recovered for six years, but it still hurt now as if to remind her of her unbearable memories.
Noticing that Audrey suddenly stopped talking, Liana waved to Audrey.
When Audrey came to herself, Liana asked with concern, "Audrey, what's wrong?"
Audrey regained her composure and asked, "Nothing. Because you aren't pregnant and his mistress is pregnant, he decides to divorce you and be with his mistress, right?"
"Yes, he thought I am infertile so that he has no child for so many years, and he said he gets traumatized."
One needed a clean reputation to survive. However, when one behaved dishonorably, it could be said that he was invincible. Audrey thought that Santon was so shameless.
What was more, the fact that Liana had an ectopic pregnancy and it was difficult for Liana to get pregnant again was all because of Santon, but he blamed Liana for his mistakes. He was so cruel.
Audrey squinted her eyes as she looked at Santon and Roselyn and saw how considerate he was.
Audrey sneered, "I'll help you."
Liana looked gratefully at Audrey and said, "Audrey, thank you."
Liana's case was very simple. Santon was just an ordinary employee in his company, so he could not afford to hire a famous lawyer but a common lawyer from a small law firm. When the lawyer heard that Liana's lawyer was Audrey, he immediately was startled.
After checking Santon's information, Audrey suddenly discovered that the company Santon worked in was a branch office of the Cordova Group.
...
At noon, Audrey talked to Bryson about this Santon.
Bryson immediately took out his phone and called the person in charge of the branch office. And Bryson asked the person to fire Santon for the reason that Santon had an affair.
After lunch, Bryson drove Audrey back to the law firm. On the way back, Audrey received a call from Liana.
After Santon was fired by the Cordova Group because he had an affair, he thought that it was because Liana deliberately released the news in his company. Therefore, he went to Liana's house and had a bitter quarrel. And then Liana called Audrey.
After hanging up the phone, Audrey anxiously said to Bryson, "Bryson, something happened in Ms. Liana's house. I need to go there. Put me down on the road and I'll go there by taxi. You can go back to the company."
Audrey wanted to unfasten her seatbelt.
Bryson put his hand on Audrey's hand and stopped her. "Where does she live? I'll drive you there."
"I'll go myself!"
"I'll drive you there!" Bryson insisted.
Audrey could only nod and say, "OK."
Audrey told him the address. Bryson turned around at the intersection and headed for Liana's house. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
...
When Audrey arrived, Liana's house had been extensively damaged. Liana huddled on the floor in fear and kept screaming, while Santon kept breaking things like a madman.
"Bitch, how dare you go to my company to complain about me?"
"Get up!"
Santon grabbed Liana's hair and dragged her up.
When Santon dragged Liana and wanted to throw her to the wall. Just as Liana's head was about to hit the wall, Audrey appeared in time and held on to Liana, supporting her.
Liana screamed, but she didn't feel achy. She looked up and saw Audrey. Liana then looked at Audrey in surprise.
"Audrey!" Liana hid behind Audrey.
When Santon saw Audrey, he suddenly became more ferocious.
"Audrey, don't be nosy. The matter between Liana and me is a whole family thing, so you don't have the right to interfere."
Audrey squinted her eyes and stared at Santon fiercely.
"I am now Liana's lawyer. Since Liana is my client, I do have the right to interfere."
"Well, since you help her, I'll beat you too!"
Santon raised his hand and was about to slap Audrey across her face.
Audrey had prepared to catch Santon's hand, but Bryson grabbed Santon's hand even more quickly and shoved Santon away hard.
Santon was pushed back, his back heavily smashing against the wall.
Santon became much angrier.
"What the fuck..."
Santon was about to curse. However, when he saw Bryson, Santon bit back angry comments in horror.
