Secret Wealthy Marriage
Chapter 138 - 138 138 Divorce Agreement (2)

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Divorce Agreement (2) Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Divorce Agreement (2) This meant that Grandpa was indeed getting old, and he understood the reason he was telling him this: Grandpa was hoping to see him settle down and start a family, preferably with a child, within his lifetime.

Last night when he was lying in bed, Bryan Hawkins had thought about whether he could discuss with Carolline Ruiz making their marriage public instead of continuing to hide it.

But before he could bring it up, he saw the divorce agreement written by Carolline Ruiz.

Her handwriting was delicate, graceful, and full of energy, especially beautiful.

It seemed that he wouldn’t have a chance to express his thoughts, as it all depended on whether Carolline would admit or deny it. In his heart, he was hoping that she would deny it and take back the agreement, telling him that it was just her impulsiveness.

He wouldn’t mind.

But——

“…Yes.” Having a child was like having someone else to love, since from now on, she would love her child.

She wouldn’t tell him now that she was pregnant; she didn’t want to use the child to tie him down.

So, she had only two choices: either divorce him now, raise the child alone, and explain it to him when he finds out in the future, or sacrifice this child for her love and chase him again, looking up to him.

Carolline couldn’t bear the thought of aborting the child, so she would rather sacrifice her love.

“…” Bryan Hawkins didn’t speak, just kept looking at her. At that moment, he really wanted to ask, who was that person? Was it really Andy Aguirre?

At least Emily Hill and Henry Ruiz wouldn’t object to Andy Aguirre, and he could tell that Andy truly liked her.

But what about her? Wasn’t the person she liked him?

Then how could she accept Andy Aguirre?

During the time that Bryan Hawkins stared at her, Carolline had been very nervous, and her heart had been continuously trembling. She was really afraid that she wouldn’t be able to hold on and that Bryan Hawkins would see through her.

She endured Bryan Hawkins’ gaze with gritted teeth, and after a long while, he finally spoke.

“Alright, I understand.” He nodded, picked up the agreement on the table, and left.

He looked at Carolline for so long in hopes of finding a trace of reluctance in her expression. But he didn’t know if Carolline was good at acting or if he was too foolish because he couldn’t see anything after so long.

When he took the agreement, he was somewhat angry, and he couldn’t eat his meal anymore. He just wanted to leave this place quickly, as it made him feel very suffocated and depressed at the moment.

“…”

Carolline watched Bryan Hawkins’ reaction, feeling a bit dazed for a while. Was it over just like that?

Shouldn’t they go directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the procedures after signing the agreement?

Carolline turned around, but Bryan Hawkins had already left the villa. Soon after, she heard the sound of a car starting outside.

Bryan Hawkins drove straight to the company, still holding the agreement Carolline had given him. When he arrived at the office, he stuffed the agreement into a drawer and started today’s work.

The documents on his desk were already piled high. Bryan Hawkins looked through them one by one, carefully. The first one made his eyebrows furrow slightly, the second one made his eyebrows furrow deeper, and by the third one, he slammed the file on the table, and called the Secretary’s Office, informing each department manager to come to his office.

About ten minutes later, more than a dozen department managers were standing tremblingly in Bryan Hawkins’ office. Some of them were considerably older than Bryan Hawkins, but he didn’t care about that at all. He took out the documents one by one, pointing out the issues in them, making the other party concede defeat verbally and mentally, and finally, he threw the documents in front of them.
